Have #DAGs fulfilled their promise? A resounding YES from @PWGTennant at a lively debate at #WCE2024
People do not become frail due to one single event. It’s usually the culmination of multiple events, such as a recovery in the hospital, from surgery, or an injury or unnecessary brace/boot. Each event robbed you of 8-15% of your muscle mass… Thus, with the loss of function,…
Weight loss medication Semaglutide significantly reduces knee osteoarthritis pain and improves function! Wonder if this will soon be the recommended treatment for many with OA instead of surgery, PRP injections, or physio? medscape.com/viewarticle/se…

Happy to share my first PhD publication. "Ventilatory efficiency as a prognostic factor for postoperative complications" Many thanks to all the people involved! It was a lot of work. I learned a lot! The article can be accessed here: authors.elsevier.com/c/1iyj61dCDupkY
I’m seeing some “free market” simps defending Nature’s 12k open access fees. Guess it’s time to bring this back around.

Daniel Kahneman has passed away at 90. I hope that those who criticized (or chastised) him for citing non-replicable studies will take a moment to put his enormous contributions into perspective. Kahneman (and the late Amos Tversky) started a crucial conversation that neither…
Can someone please critically appraise this study, please? Causal association of physical activity with low back pain, intervertebral disc degeneration and sciatica: a two-sample mendelian randomization analysis study - PubMed pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38020887/
This study should be retracted, both for issues the authors can address and issues with the underlying data. Short thread.

@1gregorross @Retlouping @bellkneesurgeon @DrJN_SportsMed @kneeguyuk @JackAChew @BillingMartin @adamdobson123 Many, but not all, patients can rehab at 'home' after a THA/TKR. As long as they have proper guidance. We give them a booklet with tips, goals and exercises to do independently. TBH, I try to break many of their reliance on PT as the only means of achieving success.
When we talk about rising health care costs, we often forget: they stem in large parts from amazing progress in health care that we benefit hugely from. In my own case: If we still had the health care technologies from the 1960s, half of my own family would have died years ago.
The world... ➡️is awful: 5 million children die per year. ➡️is much better: Rates have fallen almost two-thirds in low-income countries since 1990. ➡️can be much better: Rates in rich countries are 10-15 times lower. That means we know how to prevent most of these deaths.
Another interesting GLP-1 observation. I've been tracking folks with mild/moderate OA + effusion as they start on Ozempic/Monjauro etc. Their pain and effusions start to improve after ~ 5-8 weeks. Perhaps we've been right all along... our metabolic health affects OA…
