Aims. The aim of this study was to assess arthritis of the

Aims.
Objectives. Little is known about tissue changes underlying bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in non-weight-bearing joints with osteoarthritis (OA). Our aim was to characterize BMLs in OA of the hand using dynamic histomorphometry. We therefore quantified bone turnover and angiogenesis in subchondral bone at the
The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of
sarcopenia and to examine its impact on patients with degenerative
lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS). This case-control study included two groups: one group consisting
of patients with DLSS and a second group of control subjects without
low back or neck pain and related leg pain. Five control cases were
randomly selected and matched by age and gender (n = 77 cases and
n = 385 controls) for each DLSS case. Appendicular muscle mass,
hand-grip strength, sit-to-stand test, timed up and go (TUG) test,
and clinical outcomes, including the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)
scores and the EuroQol EQ-5D were compared between the two groups.Aims
