Synovial Exosomes Induce Osteoclast Differentiation in Rheumatoid arthritis
Background/Purpose: Exosomes are small membrane vesicles (40-150 nm) of endocytic origin secreted by many types of cells and engage in cell-to-cell communication by transferring proteins,…Abstract Number: 3048 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Pain Severity As a Mediator of the Effect of Depressive Symptoms on Physical Performance in Knee Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose: Depression is a significant comorbidity of knee osteoarthritis (OA) that occurs in approximately 20% of OA patients. Depressive symptoms are associated with both subsequent…Abstract Number: 1154 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Promoting Self-Management Techniques for Osteoarthritis Pain: a Pilot Study of Nurse Practitioner Led Coping Skills Training

Minimum Physical Function Needed to Walk 6000 Steps/Day in People with Knee Osteoarthritis
Title: Minimum Physical Function Needed To Walk 6000 steps/day In People With Knee Osteoarthritis. Background/Purpose: Adopting a physically active lifestyle provides major health benefits to…Abstract Number: 1203 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Differential Synovial Expression Patterns in Early Osteoarthritis Predict Pain and Progression of Joint Damage
Background/Purpose: The cause for chronic pain in OA is largely unknown. Over 50% of osteoarthritis (OA) patients show synovial inflammation, even at early stages of…Abstract Number: 1254 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Knee Pain and Patient Preference for Knee Replacement: Healthcare Access Matters
Background/Purpose: Total knee replacement (TKR) is a cost-effective intervention for end-stage knee osteoarthritis (OA). Objectives were to estimate the effect of knee pain severity on…Abstract Number: 1431 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Estimates of Global Status By Physicians and Patients Are More Likely to be Discordant in Osteoarthritis Than in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Concordant 0-10 estimates of global status by physicians (DOCGL) and patients (PATGL) are associated with greater expectations for improvement and better outcomes1, and appear…Abstract Number: 1522 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Disease Burden in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Patients Who Have Secondary Osteoarthritis (OA) Is Lower Than in OA but Higher Than in RA with No Secondary OA
Background/Purpose: Recent data indicate that the disease burden experienced by patients with osteoarthritis (OA) is similar to or greater than in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (EULAR…Abstract Number: 2031 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Dietary Patterns and Radiographic Progression of Knee Osteoarthritis: Data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative
Background/Purpose: Although some individual foods and nutrients have been associated with knee osteoarthritis (OA) progression, the association between overall diet and OA progression is unknown.…Abstract Number: 2133 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Simulation of Cartilage Damage in Osteoarthritis Using Patient-Derived Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Background/Purpose: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease, leading to pain and functional limitation. Although OA is a most common form of musculoskeletal disease, the…Abstract Number: 2179 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
What Are the Risk Factors for Knee Pain, Radiographic Knee Osteoarthritis and Total Knee Replacement in Professional Footballers?
Background/Purpose: Football is the world’s most popular team sport. However, whether professional footballers have a higher prevalence of knee injury and subsequently, knee pain (KP),…Abstract Number: 116 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Racial Differences in Self-Reported Pain and Disability: A Longitudinal Study of Knee Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose: Pain and disability from knee osteoarthritis (KOA) has been reported to be greater among African-Americans (AAs) than Whites (WHs), though progression in KOA-related…
