Journal Article
Wallace, G., Cro, S., Doré, C., King, L., Kluzek, S., Price, A., Roemer, F., Guermazi, A., Keen, R., & Arden, N. (2017). Associations Between Clinical Evidence of Inflammation and Synovitis in Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis: A Cross-Sectional Substudy. Arthritis Care and Research, 69(9), 1340-1348. https://doi.org/10.1002/acr.23162

Objective

Painful knee osteoarthritis (KOA) has been associated with joint inflammation. There is, however, little literature correlating signs of localized inflammation with contrast‐enhanced (CE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of synovium. Thi...

Familial aggregation and heritability of schizophrenia and co-aggregation of psychiatric illnesses in affected families. Schizophrenia Bulletin, https://doi.org/10.1093/schbul/sbw159

Strong familial aggregation of schizophrenia has been reported but there is uncertainty concerning the degree of genetic contribution to the phenotypic variance of the disease. This study aimed to examine the familial aggregation and heritability of...

Journal Article
Huang, J., Burston, J. J., Li, L., Ashraf, S., Mapp, P. I., Bennett, A. J., Ravipati, S., Pousinis, P., Barrett, D. A., Scammell, B. E., & Chapman, V. (2017).

Objective: Pain is a major symptom of osteoarthritis (OA); current analgesics either do not offer adequate pain relief or are associated with serious side effects. Herein we have investigated the therapeutic potential of targeting the resolvin recept... Read More about Targeting the D-series resolvin receptor system for the treatment of osteoarthritic pain.

Background

Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) is a heterogeneous pathology characterized by a complex and multifactorial nature. It has been hypothesised that these differences are due to the existence of underlying phenotypes representing different mechan...
