Arthritis Research and Therapy, 19(281), https://doi.org/10.1186/s13075-017-1486-7

Background: Recently an important role for synovial pathology in the initiation and progression of knee osteoarthritis (OA) has been emphasised. This study aimed to examine whether ultrasonographydetected synovial changes (USSCs) associate with knee...

Knee pain and related health in the community study (KPIC): a cohort study protocol (2017)
Journal Article

Background: The incidence, progression and related risk factors for recent-onset knee pain (KP) remain uncertain. This study aims to examine the natural history of KP including incidence and progression and to identify possible phenotypes and their a...

Genome-wide association scan of neuropathic pain symptoms post total joint replacement highlights a variant in the protein-kinase C gene. European Journal of Human Genetics, https://doi.org/10.1038/ejhg.2016.196

Neuropathic pain-like joint symptoms (NP) are seen in a proportion of individuals diagnosed with osteoarthritis (OA) and post total joint replacement (TJR). In this study, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using NP as defined by the...
