Journal Article
Marshall, M., Bucknall, M., Rathod-Mistry, T., Thomas, M. J., Edwards, J. J., Peat, G., …Roddy, E. (2020). Trajectories of foot pain severity over seven years and relationship to potential prognostic factors: the clinical assessment study of the foot. Rheumatology, 59(S2), https://doi.org/10.1093/rheumatology/keaa111.060

Background Foot pain is common and disabling in older adults however little is known about its course. The objective of this study was to identify foot pain trajectories over seven years and examine the associations between progressive symptom traje...

A consensus-based framework for conducting and reporting osteoarthritis phenotype research (2020)
Journal Article
van Spil, W., Bierma-Zeinstra, S., Deveza, L., Arden, N., Bay-Jensen, A., Byers Kraus, V., …Hunter, D. (2020). A consensus-based framework for conducting and reporting osteoarthritis phenotype research. Arthritis Research and Therapy, 22, Article 54. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13075-020-2143-0

Background The concept of osteoarthritis (OA) heterogeneity is evolving and gaining renewed interest. According to this concept, distinct subtypes of OA need to be defined that will likely require recognition in research design and different approac...

Flare-ups of osteoarthritis: what do they mean in the short-term and the long-term? (2020)
Journal Article
Thomas, M., & Neogi, T. (2020). Flare-ups of osteoarthritis: what do they mean in the short-term and the long-term?. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 28(7), 870-873. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joca.2020.01.005

Symptoms of osteoarthritis (OA) evolve over years with variable rate and course. While studies have focused on understanding long-term trajectories of OA [e.g., 1 ], how these relate to shorter-term fluctuations in symptoms is not well-understood. Ye...
