Serum cartilage oligomeric matrix protein and development of radiographic and painful knee osteoarthritis. A community-based cohort of middle-aged women (2015)
Journal Article
Kluzek, S., Bay-Jensen, A.-C., Judge, A., Karsdal, M. A., Shorthose, M., Spector, T., …Arden, N. K. (2015). Serum cartilage oligomeric matrix protein and development of radiographic and painful knee osteoarthritis. A community-based cohort of middle-aged women. Biomarkers, 20(8), 557-564. https://doi.org/10.3109/1354750x.2015.1105498

Context and objective: We evaluated the predictive value of serum cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (sCOMP) levels over 20 years on the development of radiographic (RKOA) and painful knee osteoarthritis (KOA) in a longitudinal cohort of middle-aged...

To assess whether joint pain or radiographic osteoarthritis (ROA) of the knee and hand is associated with all-cause and disease-specific mortality in middle-aged women.

Methods: Four subgroups from the prospective community-based Chingford Cohort... Read More about Painful knee but not hand osteoarthritis is an independent predictor of mortality over 23 years follow-up of a population-based cohort of middle-aged women.

Is osteoarthritis a metabolic disorder? (2015)
Journal Article
Kluzek, S., Newton, J. L., & Arden, N. K. (2015). Is osteoarthritis a metabolic disorder?. British Medical Bulletin, 115(1), 111-121. https://doi.org/10.1093/bmb/ldv028

Background

Obesity is associated with an increased risk of developing osteoarthritis (OA), even in non-weight bearing joints. High levels of adipose tissue-associated inflammation may explain this association.

Sources of data and areas of debat... Read More about Is osteoarthritis a metabolic disorder?.

Adipokines as potential prognostic biomarkers in patients with acute knee injury (2015)
Journal Article
Kluzek, S., Arden, N. K., & Newton, J. (2015). Adipokines as potential prognostic biomarkers in patients with acute knee injury. Biomarkers, 20(8), 519-525. https://doi.org/10.3109/1354750x.2014.948914

This review considers adipokines as predictive biomarkers for early onset post-traumatic knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Serum concentrations of leptin and resistin can predict radiographic changes and are elevated in early KOA, with higher leptin concent...

Acute compartment syndrome of the thigh in a rugby player (2015)
Journal Article
Smith, R. D. J., Rust-March, H., & Kluzek, S. (2015). Acute compartment syndrome of the thigh in a rugby player. BMJ Case Reports, 2015, Article bcr2015210856. https://doi.org/10.1136/bcr-2015-210856

In the absence of obvious trauma, diagnosis of acute compartment syndrome (ACS) of the thigh can easily be delayed, as disproportional pain is not always present. We present a case of ACS of the anterior right thigh compartment in a healthy, semiprof... Read More about Acute compartment syndrome of the thigh in a rugby player.
