Characterization of multinucleated giant cells in synovium and subchondral bone in knee osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis (2015)
Journal Article
Prieto-Potin, I., Largo, R., Roman-Blas, J. A., Herrero-Beaumont, G., & Walsh, D. A. (2015). Characterization of multinucleated giant cells in synovium and subchondral bone in knee osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 16, Article 226. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12891-015-0664-5

Background: Multinucleated giant cells have been noticed in diverse arthritic conditions since their first description in rheumatoid synovium. However, their role in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA) or rheumatoid arthritis (RA) still remains b...

Dissecting the contribution of knee joint NGF to spinal nociceptive sensitization in a model of OA pain in the rat (2015)
Journal Article
Sagar, D. R., Nwosu, L. N., Walsh, D. A., & Chapman, V. (2015). Dissecting the contribution of knee joint NGF to spinal nociceptive sensitization in a model of OA pain in the rat. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 23(6), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joca.2015.01.010

Objective: Although analgesic approaches targeting nerve growth factor (NGF) for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) pain remain of clinical interest, neurophysiological mechanisms by which NGF contribute to OA pain remain unclear. We investigated t... Read More about Dissecting the contribution of knee joint NGF to spinal nociceptive sensitization in a model of OA pain in the rat.

A cross-sectional study of pain sensitivity, disease-activity assessment, mental health, and fibromyalgia status in rheumatoid arthritis (2015)
Journal Article
Joharatnam, N., McWilliams, D. F., Wilson, D., Wheeler, M., Pande, I., & Walsh, D. A. (2015). A cross-sectional study of pain sensitivity, disease-activity assessment, mental health, and fibromyalgia status in rheumatoid arthritis. Arthritis Research and Therapy, 17(11), https://doi.org/10.1186/s13075-015-0525-5

INTRODUCTION: Pain remains the most important problem for people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Active inflammatory disease contributes to pain, but pain due to non-inflammatory mechanisms can confound the assessment of disease activity. We hypothes...

Structural Associations of Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis: Structural Associations of Symptomatic Knee OA (2014)
Journal Article
Stoppiello, L. A., Mapp, P. I., Wilson, D., Hill, R., Scammell, B. E., & Walsh, D. A. (2014). Structural Associations of Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis: Structural Associations of Symptomatic Knee OA. Arthritis and Rheumatology, 66(11), 3018-3027. https://doi.org/10.1002/art.38778

Objective

Structural changes of osteoarthritis (OA) may occur in the absence of pain. In this study, we aimed to identify histopathologic features that are associated with symptomatic knee OA.

Methods

Medial tibial plateaus and synovium samp... Read More about Structural Associations of Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis: Structural Associations of Symptomatic Knee OA.
