Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent type of arthritis worldwide, and its incidence significantly increases with age. It commonly affects the knees, hips, spine, big toes, and hands. OA can be identified through clinical examination, symptoms, and imaging methods. Its main symptoms include pain, stiffness, and limitations in joint movement. Examinations may reveal coarse crepitus, bony enlargement, and tenderness at the joint line. In severe cases of OA, rest pain, night pain, and deformity may occur. OA can lead to decreased physical activity, function, and quality of life due to symptoms such as pain and stiffness. To evaluate these impacts, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are necessary. Various generic, disease-specific, and joint-specific PROMs have been developed and used in clinical practice to assess the outcomes of OA.
骨关节炎(OA)是全球最常见的关节炎类型,其发病率随着年龄的增长而显著增加。它通常影响膝盖、髋关节、脊柱、大脚趾和手。可以通过临床检查、症状和影像学方法来确定 OA。其主要症状包括疼痛、僵硬和关节活动受限。检查可能会发现关节线处有粗糙的吱吱声、骨质增生和压痛。严重的 OA 患者可能会出现休息痛、夜间痛和变形。由于疼痛和僵硬等症状,OA 可导致体力活动、功能和生活质量下降。要评估这些影响,患者报告的结果测量(PROMs)是必要的。目前已开发出各种通用的、疾病特异性的和关节特异性的 PROMs,并已用于临床实践,以评估 OA 的结果。
期刊介绍:
Evidence-based updates of best clinical practice across the spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions.
Best Practice & Research: Clinical Rheumatology keeps the clinician or trainee informed of the latest developments and current recommended practice in the rapidly advancing fields of musculoskeletal conditions and science.
The series provides a continuous update of current clinical practice. It is a topical serial publication that covers the spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions in a 4-year cycle. Each topic-based issue contains around 200 pages of practical, evidence-based review articles, which integrate the results from the latest original research with current clinical practice and thinking to provide a continuous update.
Each issue follows a problem-orientated approach that focuses on the key questions to be addressed, clearly defining what is known and not known. The review articles seek to address the clinical issues of diagnosis, treatment and patient management. Management is described in practical terms so that it can be applied to the individual patient. The serial is aimed at the physician in both practice and training.
