Patients w knee and hip OA were on average more alike than different. After treatment, clinically relevant improvements were seen in both knee & hip OA at 3 & 12 mo. OA patients should be prioritized alike for treatment w education and supervised exercise. doi.org/10.1016/j.joca…

One out of four patients with knee or hip OA fall during the year prior to attending a structured patient education and exercise therapy program (GLA:D). Visit poster stand 518 hosted by Søren T. Skou and Ewa Roos #OARSI2022 FOF research unit Lara Allet Roger Hilfiker

Congratulations to James J. Young defending his PhD in Odense today

The GLA:D Denmark 2021 Annual Report is now available: glaid.dk/pdf/Annual%20r… International stats: 🔸85000 patients & 6000 clinicians for #osteoarthritis 🔸5500 patients & 850 clinicians for #lowbackpain

In low active OA patients, 1 out of 3 participating in GLA:D reached and maintained at least a moderate physical activity level for one year. The improvement in physical activity was not dependent on pain reduction. GLA:D Denmark GLA:D International Network sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

#Analgesic use increased the year before the intervention followed by a decrease during the intervention and the year after 📈📉 ✅ After the intervention, #Paracetamol use dropped 16% and remained stable. #NSAIDs and #opioids fell 38% and 8% #exercisetherapy #osteoarthritis

Looking forward to working with excellent colleagues and other collaborators the next few years at FOF research unit and PROgrez

Improvement in pain (knee), QoL and self-efficacy after exercise therapy and education was associated with 2-year knee and hip replacement surgery. Progression to hip replacement was three times higher than knee. Great work by Ilana Ackerman et al. acrjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…

It is worth trying patient education and exercise therapy to delay joint replacement surgery. Those with greater improvement immediately after GLA:D had a lower likelihood of hip and knee replacement at 2 years. Just published: acrjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ac…

Collaborations at FOF for Advancing Research: We recognize the power of teamwork. Let's introduce you to some of our exceptional collaborators who have played a crucial role in our research efforts. 🤝🔬

Walking is challenging for some patients with #osteoarthritis Exercise therapy makes walking easier but be aware that those with severe difficulty walking and higher back and knee pain may need some extra support. Please share with clinicians 🙏 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38879187/

Article out in Age & Ageing: 1️⃣ Concerns about falling is common in people with knee or hip OA – especially in women and the oldest participants. 2️⃣ Underpins the relevance of integrating fall prevention into primary care management of people with OA. academic.oup.com/ageing/article…

🆕1 in 4 patients with knee osteoarthritis participating in exercise therapy had a previous knee joint surgery. 🆕Patients with previous knee surgery can expect clinical outcomes similar to patients without prior knee joint surgery. Article link: link.springer.com/article/10.100…
