Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although hand synovitis is prevalent in the older population, the aetiology remains unclear. Hyperuricemia, a modifiable metabolic disorder, may serve as an underlying mechanism of hand synovitis, but little is known about their relationship. We assessed the association between hyperuricemia and hand synovitis in a large population-based sample. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional study in Longshan County, Hunan Province, China. Hyperuricemia was defined as a serum urate >420 μmol/L in men and >360 μmol/L in women. Ultrasound examinations were performed on both hands of 4,080 participants, and both grey-scale synovitis and Power Doppler signal (PDS) were assessed using semiquantitative scores (grades 0-3). We evaluated the association of hyperuricemia with hand grey-scale synovitis (grade ≥2) and PDS (grade ≥1), respectively, adjusting for age, sex and body mass index. RESULTS All required assessments for analysis were available on 3,286 participants. The prevalence of hand grey-scale synovitis was higher among participants with hyperuricemia (30.0%) than those with normouricemia (23.3%), with an adjusted odds ratio (aOR) of 1.28 (95% confidence interval [CI]:1.00-1.62). Participants with hyperuricemia also had higher prevalence of PDS (aOR=2.36, 95% CI:1.15-4.81). Furthermore, hyperuricemia positively associated, both at the hand and joint levels, with presence of grey-scale synovitis (aOR=1.27, 95% CI:1.00-1.60, and adjusted prevalence ratio [aPR]=1.26, 95% CI:1.10-1.44, respectively), and PDS (aOR=2.35, 95% CI:1.15-4.79, and aPR=2.34, 95% CI:1.28-4.30, respectively). CONCLUSION This population-based study provides more evidences for a positive association between hyperuricemia and prevalent hand synovitis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Clarifying the prognosis and readmission patterns of patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) following total hip arthroplasty (THA) would provide important references for clinical management for this population. Using the Chinese national inpatient database (i.e., Hospital Quality Monitoring System [HQMS]), we aimed to compare in-hospital complications and readmission patterns following THA in patients with DDH and primary osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS Patients undergoing THA for DDH and OA between 2013 and 2019 were identified using the HQMS. Demographics and clinical characteristics were compared between the two groups. After propensity score matching, in-hospital complications and readmission patterns were compared using a logistic regression model. RESULTS According to the analysis of 13,937 propensity-score matched pairs, there were no significant differences in the incidence of in-hospital death (0.01 % vs 0.04 %, P = 0.142), transfusion (8.09 % vs 7.89 %, P = 0.536), wound infection (0.31 % vs 0.25 %, P = 0.364), deep venous thrombosis (0.45 % vs 0.43 %, P = 0.786), pulmonary embolism (0.03 % vs 0.05 %, P = 0.372) or all-cause readmission (2.87 % vs 3.12 %, P = 0.219) between two groups. However, DDH patients had higher surgical readmission rates than OA patients (1.43 % vs 1.14 %, P = 0.033). When analyzing causes of surgical readmission, DDH patients had increased risk of dislocation (0.37 % vs 0.21 %, P = 0.011) and aseptic loosening (0.17 % vs 0.07 %, P = 0.024) than OA patients. CONCLUSION DDH patients had an increased risk of surgical readmission following THA, mainly driven by dislocation and aseptic loosening, which should be recognized and appropriately prevented.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The current guidelines recommend weight loss for patients with overweight or obesity and knee or hip osteoarthritis (OA); however, there is a paucity of data on the relation of weight loss to death among patients with OA. We aimed to examine the relation of the rate of weight loss induced by antiobesity medications over one year to all-cause mortality among patients with overweight or obesity and knee or hip OA. METHODS Using the IQVIA Medical Research Database, we identified people with overweight or obesity and knee or hip OA. We emulated analyses of a hypothetical target trial to assess the effect of slow-to-moderate (2%-10%) or fast (≥10%) weight loss induced by the initiation of antiobesity medications within one year on all-cause mortality and secondary outcomes over five years' follow-up. RESULTS Among 6,524 participants, the five-year all-cause mortality rates were 5.3%, 4.0%, and 5.4% for weight gain or stable, slow-to-moderate weight loss, and fast weight loss arms, respectively. Compared with the weight gain or stable arm, hazard ratios of all-cause mortality were 0.72 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.56-0.92) for the slow-to-moderate weight loss arm and 0.99 (95% CI 0.67-1.44) for the fast weight loss arm. We found dose-response protective effects of weight loss on incident hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and venous thromboembolism but a slightly higher risk of cardiovascular disease, albeit not statistically significant, in the fast rate of weight loss arm than in the weight gain or stable arm and no significant relations of weight loss to the risk of cancer. CONCLUSION In this population-based study, a slow-to-moderate, but not fast, rate of weight loss induced by antiobesity medications is associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality in people with overweight or obesity and knee or hip OA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited studies have examined the benefits of early arthroplasty within 48 h from admission to surgery for femoral neck fractures (FNFs). Using the national inpatient database, the authors aimed to investigate the trends in early arthroplasty within 48 h for FNFs in China and to assess its effect on in-hospital complications and 30-day readmission patterns. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study. Patients receiving primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) or hemiarthroplasty (HA) for FNFs in the Hospital Quality Monitoring System between 2013 and 2019 were included. After adjusting for potential confounders with propensity score matching, a logistic regression model was performed to compare the differences in in-hospital complications [i.e. in-hospital death, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), wound infection, and blood transfusion], rates and causes of 30-day readmission between early and delayed arthroplasty. RESULTS During the study period, the rate of early THA increased from 18.0 to 19.9%, and the rate of early HA increased from 14.7 to 18.4% ( P <0.001). After matching, 11 731 pairs receiving THA and 13 568 pairs receiving HA were included. Compared with delayed THA, early THA was associated with a lower risk of pulmonary embolism [odds ratio (OR) 0.51, 95% CI: 0.30-0.88], DVT (OR 0.59, 95% CI: 0.50-0.70), blood transfusion (OR 0.62, 95% CI: 0.55-0.70), 30-day readmission (OR 0.82, 95% CI: 0.70-0.95), and venous thromboembolism-related readmission (OR 0.50, 95% CI: 0.34-0.74). Similarly, early HA was associated with a lower risk of DVT (OR 0.70, 95% CI: 0.61-0.80) and blood transfusion (OR 0.74, 95% CI: 0.68-0.81) than delayed HA. CONCLUSION Despite a slight increase, the rate of early arthroplasty remained at a low level in China. Given that early arthroplasty can significantly improve prognosis, more efforts are needed to optimize the procedure and shorten the time to surgery.

Abstract
Melatonin exhibits potential for pain relief and long-term safety profile. We examined the analgesic effects of oral melatonin on osteoarthritis (OA) and investigated the underlying mechanism. Using data from a UK primary care database, we conducted a cohort study in individuals with OA to compare the number of oral analgesic prescriptions and the risk of knee/hip replacement between melatonin initiators and hypnotic benzodiazepines (i.e., active comparator) initiators using quantile regression models and Cox-proportional hazard models, respectively. To elucidate causation, we examined the effects of melatonin on pain behaviors and explored several metabolites that may serve as potential regulatory agents of melatonin in the monoiodoacetate rat model of OA. Using data from another community-based cohort study, that is, the Xiangya OA Study, we verified the association between the key serum metabolite and incident symptomatic knee OA. Compared with the hypnotic benzodiazepines cohort (n = 8135), the melatonin cohort (n = 813) had significantly fewer subsequent prescriptions of oral analgesics (50th percentile: 5 vs. 7, 75th percentile: 19 vs. 29, and 99th percentile: 140 vs. 162) and experienced a lower risk of knee/hip replacement (hazard ratio = 0.47, 95% Cl: 0.30-0.73) during the follow-up period. In rats, oral melatonin alleviated pain behaviors and increased serum levels of glycine. There was an inverse association between baseline serum glycine levels and the risk of incident symptomatic knee OA in humans (n = 760). In conclusion, our findings indicate that oral melatonin shows significant potential to be a novel treatment for OA pain. The potential role of glycine in its analgesic mechanism warrants further investigation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Early-onset osteoarthritis (OA) is an emerging health issue amidst the escalating prevalence of overweight and obesity. However, there are scant data on its disease, economic burden and attributable burden due to high body mass index (BMI). METHODS Using data from the Global Burden of Diseases Study 2019, we examined the numbers of incident cases, prevalent cases, years lived with disability (YLDs) and corresponding age-standardised rates for early-onset OA (diagnosis before age 55) from 1990 to 2019. The case definition was symptomatic and radiographically confirmed OA in any joint. The average annual percentage changes (AAPCs) of the age-standardised rates were calculated to quantify changes. We estimated the economic burden of early-onset OA and attributable burden to high BMI. RESULTS From 1990 to 2019, the global incident cases, prevalent cases and YLDs of early-onset OA were doubled. 52.31% of incident OA cases in 2019 were under 55 years. The age-standardised rates of incidence, prevalence and YLDs increased globally and for countries in all Sociodemographic Index (SDI) quintiles (all AAPCs>0, p<0.05), with the fastest increases in low-middle SDI countries. 98.04% of countries exhibited increasing trends in all age-standardised rates. Early-onset OA accounts for US$46.17 billion in healthcare expenditure and US$60.70 billion in productivity loss cost in 2019. The attributable proportion of high BMI for early-onset OA increased globally from 9.41% (1990) to 15.29% (2019). CONCLUSIONS Early-onset OA is a developing global health problem, causing substantial economic costs in most countries. Targeted implementation of cost-effective policies and preventive intervention is required to address the growing health challenge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Identification of knee osteoarthritis (OA) pain phenotypes, their transition patterns, and risk factors for worse phenotypes, may guide prognosis and targeted treatment; however, few studies have described them. We aimed to investigate different pain phenotypes, their transition patterns, and potential risk factors for worse pain phenotypes. METHODS Utilizing data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI), pain severity was assessed using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain subscale. We identified the activity-related pain phenotypes and estimated the transition probabilities of pain phenotypes from baseline to the 24-month using latent transition analysis. We examined the risk factors at baseline with the 24-month pain phenotypes and the transition of pain phenotypes. RESULTS In 4796 participants, we identified four distinct knee pain phenotypes at both baseline and 24-month follow-up: no pain, mild pain during activity (Mild P-A), mild pain during both rest and activity (Mild P-R-A), and moderate pain during both rest and activity (Mod P-R-A). 82.9% knees with no pain at baseline stayed the same at 24-month follow-up, 17.1% progressed to worse pain phenotypes. Among "Mild P-A" at baseline, 32.0% converted to no-pain, 12.8% progressed to "Mild P-R-A", and 53.2% remained. Approximately 46.1% of "Mild P-R-A" and 54.5% of "Mod P-R-A" at baseline experienced remission by 24-month. Female, non-whites, participants with higher depression score, higher body mass index (BMI), higher Kellgren and Lawrence (KL) grade, and knee injury history were more likely to be in the worse pain phenotypes, while participants aged 65 years or older and with higher education were less likely to be in worse pain phenotypes at 24-month follow-up visit. Risk factors for greater transition probability to worse pain phenotypes at 24-month included being female, non-whites, participants with higher depression score, higher BMI, and higher KL grade. CONCLUSIONS We identified four distinct knee pain phenotypes. While the pain phenotypes remained stable in the majority of knees over 24 months period, substantial proportion of knees switched to different pain phenotypes. Several socio-demographics as well as radiographic lesions at baseline are associated with worse pain phenotypes at 24-month follow-up visit and transition of pain phenotypes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Synovial abnormalities, which are modifiable treatment targets for knee pain, affect ~25% of adults. Ultrasound is a safe, inexpensive, and easily accessible imaging modality for assessing synovial abnormalities, but its diagnostic accuracy is still controversial. We conducted a meta-analysis by comparing ultrasound with the "reference standard" method, ie, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), in assessing synovial abnormalities among patients with knee pain. METHODS PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science were searched from inception to January 7, 2022, to retrieve studies including patients with knee pain for evaluating 1) the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound versus MRI for synovial abnormalities (synovitis and synovial effusion) and 2) the correlations of synovial abnormalities assessed by ultrasound and MRI. The summary of diagnostic accuracy was analyzed using the bivariate model, and the correlation coefficients were pooled using the random effects model. RESULTS Fourteen studies were included, representing a total of 755 patients. The pooled sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve were 0.88 (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 0.65-0.96), 0.70 (95% CI 0.51-0.84), and 0.81 (95% CI 0.77-0.84) for synovitis and 0.90 (95% CI 0.81-0.95), 0.86 (95% CI 0.77-0.92), and 0.94 (95% CI 0.91-0.96) for synovial effusion, respectively. Strong correlations between ultrasound- and MRI-diagnosed synovitis (r = 0.64, 95% CI 0.56-0.71) and synovial effusion (r = 0.63, 95% CI 0.52-0.73) were observed. CONCLUSION Ultrasound demonstrated a promising accuracy in detecting synovial abnormalities among patients with knee pain. The use of ultrasound provides equivalent synovial information to MRI but is less expensive and more accessible. Therefore, it is recommended as an adjuvant for managing patients with knee pain during diagnostic strategy and individualized treatment decision-making.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The incidence of gout in the UK appears to have declined since 2013; however, whether such a trend occurred across participants born in different years (ie, birth cohort) is unknown. We aimed to examine the effects of the birth cohort on gout incidence using an age-period-cohort (APC) model. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Nationwide data from the UK primary care database. PARTICIPANTS Individuals between 30 and 89 years of age were included. We excluded individuals who had gout history when entering the database and individuals with less than 1 year of continuous follow-up between 1 January 1999 and 31 December 2019. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES Gout was identified using READ codes assigned by general practitioners. The incidence of gout between 1999-2013 and 2011-2019 was analysed with APC model. RESULTS The incidence of gout between 1999 and 2013 increased with birth cohorts. Compared with those born in 1949-1953 (reference), the age-adjusted and period-adjusted rate ratios (RRs) of incident gout increased from 0.39 (95% CI 0.34 to 0.46) in participants born in 1910-1914 to 2.36 (95% CI 2.09 to 2.66) in participants born in 1979-1983 (p for trend <0.001). In contrast, the incidence of gout between 2011 and 2019 decreased with birth cohorts. Compared with those born in 1949-1953 (reference), the age-adjusted and period-adjusted RRs of incident gout declined from 2.75 (95% CI 2.30 to 3.28) in participants born in 1922-1926 to 0.75 (95% CI 0.65 to 0.87) in participants born in 1976-1980 but then increased slightly to 0.95 (95% CI 0.77 to 1.17) in participants born in 1985-1989. CONCLUSIONS The gout incidence between 1999 and 2013 in the UK increased with the birth cohorts and then decreased between 2011 and 2019 except for those born after 1980. Future monitoring is needed to help identify aetiological factors and guide preventive and treatment strategies for gout.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Decrease in allogenic red blood cell (RBC) transfusion rates following total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been reported in the United States, but whether other countries share the same trend remains unclear. Additionally, the relation of allogenic RBC transfusion to the risk of complications in THA remains controversial. Using the Chinese national inpatient database, the current study aimed to examine trends, complications, charges, and readmission patterns of allogeneic RBC transfusion in THA. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients undergoing primary THA between 2013 and 2019 were included, and then stratified into the transfusion and the non-transfusion group based on the database transfusion records. A generalized estimating equation model was used to investigate trends in transfusion rates. After propensity-score matching, a logistic regression model was used to compare the complications, rates and causes of 30-day readmission between two groups. RESULTS A total of 10,270 patients with transfusion and 123,476 patients without transfusion were included. Transfusion rates decreased from 19.11% in 2013 to 9.94% in 2019 (P for trend < 0.001). After matching, no significant differences in the risk of of in-hospital death (odds ratio [OR], 4.00; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.85-18.83), wound infection (OR 0.72; 95%CI 0.45-1.17), myocardial infarction (OR 1.17; 95%CI 0.62-2.19), deep vein thrombosis (OR 1.25; 95%CI 0.88-1.78), pulmonary embolism (OR 2.25; 95%CI 0.98-5.17), readmission rates (OR 1.07; 95%CI 0.88-1.30) and readmission causes were observed between two groups. However, the transfusion group had higher hospitalization charges than the non-transfusion group (72,239.89 vs 65,649.57 Chinese yuan [CNY], P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS This study found that allogeneic RBC transfusion in THA was not associated with the increased risk of complications and any-cause readmission. However, the currently restrictive transfusion policy should be continued because excessive blood transfusion may increase the socioeconomic burden.

Abstract
BACKGROUND When they encounter various highly related postoperative complications, existing risk evaluation tools that focus on single or any complications are inadequate in clinical practice. This seriously hinders complication management because of the lack of a quantitative basis. An interpretable multilabel model framework that predicts multiple complications simultaneously is urgently needed. MATERIALS AND METHODS The authors included 50 325 inpatients from a large multicenter cohort (2014-2017). The authors separated patients from one hospital for external validation and randomly split the remaining patients into training and internal validation sets. A MARKov-EmbeDded (MARKED) multilabel model was proposed, and three models were trained for comparison: binary relevance, a fully connected network (FULLNET), and a deep neural network. Performance was mainly evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). The authors interpreted the model using Shapley Additive Explanations. Complication-specific risk and risk source inference were provided at the individual level. RESULTS There were 26 292, 6574, and 17 459 inpatients in the training, internal validation, and external validation sets, respectively. For the external validation set, MARKED achieved the highest average AUC (0.818, 95% CI: 0.771-0.864) across eight outcomes [compared with binary relevance, 0.799 (0.748-0.849), FULLNET, 0.806 (0.756-0.856), and deep neural network, 0.815 (0.765-0.866)]. Specifically, the AUCs of MARKED were above 0.9 for cardiac complications [0.927 (0.894-0.960)], neurological complications [0.905 (0.870-0.941)], and mortality [0.902 (0.867-0.937)]. Serum albumin, surgical specialties, emergency case, American Society of Anesthesiologists score, age, and sex were the six most important preoperative variables. The interaction between complications contributed more than the preoperative variables, and formed a hierarchical chain of risk factors, mild complications, and severe complications. CONCLUSION The authors demonstrated the advantage of MARKED in terms of performance and interpretability. The authors expect that the identification of high-risk patients and the inference of the risk source for specific complications will be valuable for clinical decision-making.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Knee synovitis is a highly prevalent and potentially curable condition for knee pain; however, its pathogenesis remains unclear. We sought to assess the associations of the gut fungal microbiota and the fungi-bacteria correlation network with knee synovitis. METHODS Participants were derived from a community-based cross-sectional study. We performed an ultrasound examination of both knees. A knee was defined as having synovitis if its synovium was ≥4 mm and/or Power Doppler (PD) signal was within the knee synovium area (PD synovitis). We collected faecal specimens from each participant and assessed gut fungal and bacterial microbiota using internal transcribed spacer 2 and shotgun metagenomic sequencing. We examined the relation of α-diversity, β-diversity, the relative abundance of taxa and the interkingdom correlations to knee synovitis. RESULTS Among 977 participants (mean age: 63.2 years; women: 58.8%), 191 (19.5%) had knee synovitis. β-diversity of the gut fungal microbiota, but not α-diversity, was significantly associated with prevalent knee synovitis. The fungal genus Schizophyllum was inversely correlated with the prevalence and activity (ie, control, synovitis without PD signal and PD synovitis) of knee synovitis. Compared with those without synovitis, the fungi-bacteria correlation network in patients with knee synovitis was smaller (nodes: 93 vs 153; edges: 107 vs 244), and the average number of neighbours was fewer (2.3 vs 3.2). CONCLUSION Alterations of gut fungal microbiota and the fungi-bacteria correlation network are associated with knee synovitis. These novel findings may help understand the mechanisms of the gut-joint axis in knee synovitis and suggest potential targets for future treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The pathogenesis of hand osteoarthritis (OA) remains unknown. Hyperuricaemia, which is related to inflammation, may play a role in hand OA, but evidence is lacking. In a large population-based study, we examined the association between hyperuricaemia and hand OA. METHODS Participants were from the Xiangya OA Study, a community-based observational study. Hyperuricaemia was defined as serum urate >416 µmol/L in men and >357 µmol/L in women. Radiographic hand OA (RHOA) was defined as presence of the modified Kellgren-Lawrence grade ≥2 in any hand joint. Symptomatic hand OA (SHOA) was defined as presence of both self-reported symptoms and RHOA in the same hand. The associations of hyperuricaemia with RHOA or SHOA were examined using generalised estimating equations. RESULTS Among 3628 participants, the prevalence of RHOA was higher in participants with hyperuricaemia than those with normouricaemia (26.9% vs 20.9%), with an adjusted OR (aOR) of 1.34 (95% CI 1.11 to 1.61). The associations were consistent in men (aOR 1.33, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.74) and women (aOR 1.35, 95% CI 1.05 to 1.74). Hyperuricaemia was mainly associated with bilateral RHOA (aOR 1.54, 95% CI 1.18 to 2.01) but not unilateral RHOA (aOR 1.13, 95% CI 0.89 to 1.45). Prevalence of SHOA was higher, although statistically insignificant, in participants with hyperuricaemia (aOR 1.39, 95% CI 0.94 to 2.07). CONCLUSION In this population-based study, hyperuricaemia was associated with a higher prevalence of hand OA. Future prospective studies are required to investigate the temporal relationship. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04033757.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since gut microbiome dysbiosis can cause inflammatory disorders by affecting host metabolism, we postulate that the gut microbiome and related metabolites could play a role in hand osteoarthritis. We characterised gut microbiome-related metabolites in people with symptomatic hand osteoarthritis (SHOA) in two independent cohorts. METHODS Using data collected from a large-sample community-based observational study (discovery cohort), we assessed the relations of the microbial function and plasma key metabolites related to altered microbial function with SHOA. Finally, we verified the relations of plasma metabolites to SHOA in an independent observational study (validation cohort). FINDINGS In the discovery cohort (n = 1359), compared to those without SHOA, participants with SHOA had significantly altered microbial functions related to tryptophan metabolism (Q = 0.025). Therefore we measured the plasma tryptophan metabolites and found that participants with SHOA had higher levels of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (odds ratio [OR] = 1.25, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.09-1.42) and 5-hydroxytryptophol (OR = 1.13, 95% CI: 1.04-1.23), but lower levels of indole-3-lactic acid (ILA) (OR = 0.85, 95% CI: 0.72-1.00), skatole (OR = 0.93, 95% CI: 0.88-0.99) and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (OR = 0.90, 95% CI: 0.85-0.96). Findings from the validation cohort (n = 142) verified that lower levels of ILA were related to SHOA (OR = 0.70, 95% CI: 0.53-0.92). INTERPRETATION Alterations of the microbial function of tryptophan biosynthesis and tryptophan metabolites, especially lower levels of ILA, are associated with SHOA. These findings suggest the role of the microbiome and tryptophan metabolites in developing of SHOA and may contribute to future translational opportunities.

Abstract
Hand osteoarthritis is a common heterogeneous joint disorder with unclear molecular mechanisms and no disease-modifying drugs. In this study, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing analysis to compare the cellular composition and subpopulation-specific gene expression between cartilage with macroscopically confirmed osteoarthritis (n = 5) and cartilage without osteoarthritis (n = 5) from the interphalangeal joints of five donors. Of 105 142 cells, we identified 13 subpopulations, including a novel subpopulation with inflammation-modulating potential annotated as inflammatory chondrocytes. Fibrocartilage chondrocytes exhibited extensive alteration of gene expression patterns in osteoarthritic cartilage compared with nonosteoarthritic cartilage. Both inflammatory chondrocytes and fibrocartilage chondrocytes showed a trend toward increased numbers in osteoarthritic cartilage. In these two subpopulations from osteoarthritic cartilage, the ferroptosis pathway was enriched, and expression of iron overload-related genes, e.g., FTH1, was elevated. To verify these findings, we conducted a Mendelian randomization study using UK Biobank and a population-based cross-sectional study using data collected from Xiangya Osteoarthritis Study. Genetic predisposition toward higher expression of FTH1 mRNA significantly increased the risk of hand osteoarthritis (odds ratio = 1.07, 95% confidence interval: 1.02-1.11) among participants (n = 332 668) in UK Biobank. High levels of serum ferritin (encoded by FTH1), a biomarker of body iron overload, were significantly associated with a high prevalence of hand osteoarthritis among participants (n = 1 241) of Xiangya Osteoarthritis Study (P-for-trend = 0.037). In conclusion, our findings indicate that inflammatory and fibrocartilage chondrocytes are key subpopulations and that ferroptosis may be a key pathway in hand osteoarthritis, providing new insights into the pathophysiology and potential therapeutic targets of hand osteoarthritis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Numerous attempts have been made to identify risk factors for surgery complications, but few studies have identified accurate methods of predicting complex outcomes involving multiple complications. METHODS We performed a prospective cohort study of general surgical inpatients who attended 4 regionally representative hospitals in China from January to June 2015 and January to June 2016. The risk factors were identified using logistic regression. A Bayesian network model, consisting of directed arcs and nodes, was used to analyze the relationships between risk factors and complications. Probability ratios for complications for a given node state relative to the baseline probability were calculated to quantify the potential effects of risk factors on complications or of complications on other complications. RESULTS We recruited 19,223 participants and identified 21 nodes, representing 9 risk factors and 12 complications, and 55 direct relationships between these. Respiratory failure was at the center of the network, directly affected by 5 risk factors, and directly affected 7 complications. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation and sepsis or septic shock also directly affected death. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the ability of the network to predict complications was >0.7. Notably, the probability of other severe complications or death significantly increased when a severe complication occurred. Most importantly, there was a 141-fold higher risk of death when cardiopulmonary resuscitation was required. CONCLUSION We have created a Bayesian network that displays how risk factors affect complications and their interrelationships and permits the accurate prediction of complications and the creation of appropriate preventive guidelines.

Abstract
Metabolites' connection to sarcopenia through inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction is presumed, but their impact remains unclear due to limitations in conventional observational studies caused by confounding bias and reverse causation. We conducted a Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to elucidate the association of serum metabolites with sarcopenia and its related traits, i.e., appendicular lean mass and grip strength. Genetic instruments to proxy the serum metabolites were extracted from the most comprehensive genome-wide association study on the topic published so far. The corresponding summary statistics for the associations of genetic instruments with outcomes were calculated from the UK Biobank (n = 324,976 participants). The primary analyses were assessed by an inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method. The weighted median and MR-PRESSO methods were used as sensitive analyses. Fourteen genetically predicted serum metabolites were associated with the risk of sarcopenia (PIVW < 0.05). Two metabolites showed the overlapped association with sarcopenia and its related traits, which were isovalerylcarnitine (sarcopenia: odds ratio [OR] = 4.00, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.11~14.52, PIVW = 0.034; appendicular lean mass: β = -0.45 kg, 95% CI = -0.81~-0.09, PIVW = 0.015; grip strength: β = -1.51 kg, 95% CI = -2.31~-0.71, PIVW = 2.19 × 10-4) and docosapentaenoate (sarcopenia: OR = 0.16, 95% CI = 0.03~0.83, PIVW = 0.029; appendicular lean mass: β = -0.45 kg, 95% CI = 0.08~0.81, PIVW = 0.016). Twenty-seven metabolites were suggestive associated with appendicular lean mass or grip strength. This MR study provided evidence for the potential effects of metabolites on sarcopenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are limited data on the resource utilization of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in China. This study aimed to examine the length of stay (LOS) and inpatient charges of TKA in China, and to investigate their determinants. METHODS We included patients undergoing primary TKA in the Hospital Quality Monitoring System in China between 2013 and 2019. LOS and inpatient charges were obtained, and their associated factors were further assessed using multivariable linear regression. RESULTS A total of 184,363 TKAs were included. The LOS decreased from 10.8 days in 2013 to 9.3 days in 2019. The admission-to-surgery interval decreased from 4.6 to 4.2 days. The mean inpatient charges were 61,208.3 Chinese Yuan. Inpatient charges reached a peak in 2016, after which a gradual decrease was observed. Implant and material charges accounted for a dominating percentage, but they exhibited a downward trend, whereas labor-related charges gradually increased. Single marital status, non-osteoarthritis indication, and comorbidity were associated with longer LOS and higher inpatient charges. Female sex and younger age were associated with higher inpatient charges. There were apparent varieties of LOS and inpatient charges among provincial or non-provincial hospitals, hospitals with various TKA volume, or in different geographic regions. CONCLUSIONS The LOS following TKA in China appeared to be long, but it was shortened during the time period of 2013 to 2019. The inpatient charges dominated by implant and material charges exhibited a downward trend. However, there were apparent sociodemographic and hospital-related discrepancies of resource utilization. The observed statistics can lead to more efficient resource utilization of TKA in China.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal antiinf lammatory drugs (NSAIDs) remain the mainstay of the pharmacologic management for relieving osteoarthritis pain, and low-dose aspirin is often prescribed to osteoarthritis patients who are at high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). We conducted cohort studies using data from The Health Improvement Network (THIN) database (2000-2019) to assess whether the relationship of initiation of naproxen or ibuprofen vs. initiation of other NSAIDs (excluding both naproxen and ibuprofen), respectively, to the risk of CVD was modified by coprescription of low-dose aspirin among the participants with osteoarthritis. Among participants without coprescription of aspirin, the risk of CVD was lower in naproxen initiators (10.3/1000 person-years) than in other NSAIDs initiators (13.2/1000 person-years; hazard ratio = 0.71, 95% confidence interval: 0.60, 0.85). Among participants with coprescription of aspirin, however, the risk of CVD was higher among naproxen initiators (36.9/1000 person-years) than that among other NSAIDs initiators (34.8/1000 person-years; hazard ratio = 1.48, 95% confidence interval: 1.12, 1.84). The association was significantly modified by coprescription of aspirin (P < 0.001). Similar findings were observed in the association of initiation of ibuprofen vs. other NSAIDs with the risk of CVD, which was significantly modified by coprescription of aspirin (P < 0.001). These findings suggest that osteoarthritis patients and clinicians should be aware of the potential CVD risk of concurrently taking naproxen or ibuprofen and low-dose aspirin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Hand synovitis, a potentially modifiable pathological lesion, is common and associated with pain and hand OA; nevertheless, its pathogenesis remains uncertain. This study investigated the relationship between gut microbiota dysbiosis and hand synovitis prevalence and evaluated whether bile acids mediate the association. METHODS Participants were derived from a community-based observational study. Synovitis in each hand joint was assessed using US. Gut microbiota was evaluated using 16S ribosomal RNA amplicon sequencing on faeces, and plasma bile acids were measured by HPLC mass spectrometry. We examined the relationship between gut microbiota dysbiosis and hand synovitis prevalence, as well as the extent to which bile acids were involved in the association. RESULTS Among 1336 participants (mean age: 63.2 years; women: 58.8%), 18.3% had prevalent hand synovitis (unilateral in 13.6% and bilateral in 4.7%). β-diversity, but not α-diversity, of gut microbiota was significantly associated with prevalent hand synovitis. Higher relative abundance of the genus Prevotella and lower relative abundance of the genus Blautia were significantly associated with the prevalence of hand synovitis. Similar associations were also observed for laterality and the number of joints affected by hand synovitis. The association between Prevotella and hand synovitis was partially mediated through its effect on tauroursodeoxycholic acid and glycoursodeoxycholic acid, the mediation proportions being 25.7% and 21.6%, respectively. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that gut microbiota dysbiosis is associated with the prevalence of hand synovitis. Such an association appears to be partially mediated by plasma bile acids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The rural-urban disparities in postoperative complications and costs among patients undergoing knee arthroplasty (KA) have not been thoroughly explored. This study aimed to determine whether such differences exist in this patient population. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study was conducted using data from the national Hospital Quality Monitoring System of China. Hospitalized patients undergoing KA from 2013 to 2019 were enrolled. Patient and hospital characteristics were compared between rural and urban patients, and differences in postoperative complications, readmissions, and hospitalization costs were analyzed using propensity score matching. RESULTS Of the 146 877 KA cases analyzed, 71.4% (104 920) were urban patients and 28.6% (41 957) were rural patients. Rural patients tended to be younger (64.4±7.7 years vs. 68.0±8.0 years; P <0.001) and had fewer comorbidities. In the matched cohort of 36 482 participants per group, rural patients were found to be more likely to experience deep vein thrombosis (OR: 1.31, 95% CI: 1.17-1.46; P <0.001) and require red blood cell (RBC) transfusion (OR: 1.38, 95% CI: 1.31-1.46; P <0.001). However, they had a lower incidence of readmission within 30 days (OR: 0.65, 95% CI: 0.59-0.72; P <0.001) and readmission within 90 days (OR: 0.61, 95% CI: 0.57-0.66; P <0.001) than their urban counterparts. In addition, rural patients incurred lower hospitalization costs than urban patients (57 396.2 Chinese Yuan vs. 60 844.3 Chinese Yuan; P <0.001). CONCLUSION Rural KA patients had different clinical characteristics compared with urban patients. While they had a higher likelihood of deep vein thrombosis and RBC transfusion following KA than urban patients, they had fewer readmissions and lower hospitalization costs. Targeted clinical management strategies are needed for rural patients.

Abstract
No current pharmacological approach is capable of simultaneously inhibiting the symptomatology and structural progression of osteoarthritis. M1 macrophages and activated synovial fibroblasts (SFs) mutually contribute to the propagation of joint pain and cartilage destruction in osteoarthritis. Here, we report the engineering of an apoptotic neutrophil membrane-camouflaged liposome (termed "NM@Lip") for precise delivery of triamcinolone acetonide (TA) by dually targeting M1 macrophages and activated SFs in osteoarthritic joints. NM@Lip has a high cellular uptake in M1 macrophages and activated SFs. Furthermore, TA-loaded NM@Lip (TA-NM@Lip) effectively repolarizes M1 macrophages to the M2 phenotype and transforms pathological SFs to the deactivated phenotype by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt pathway. NM@Lip retains in the joint for up to 28 days and selectively distributes into M1 macrophages and activated SFs in synovium with low distribution in cartilage. TA-NM@Lip decreases the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and cartilage-degrading enzymes in osteoarthritic joints. In a rodent model of osteoarthritis-related pain, a single intra-articular TA-NM@Lip injection attenuates synovitis effectively and achieves complete pain relief with long-lasting effects. In a rodent model of osteoarthritis-related joint degeneration, repeated intra-articular TA-NM@Lip injections induce no obvious cartilage damage and effectively attenuate cartilage degeneration. Taken together, TA-NM@Lip represents a promising nanotherapeutic approach for osteoarthritis therapy.

Abstract
Importance Recurrent flares are the hallmark of clinical manifestation of gout. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been associated with a lower risk of incident gout; however, their association with recurrent flares is unknown. Objective To examine the association of SGLT2i vs active comparators (ie, glucagonlike peptide-1 receptor agonists [GLP-1 RA] or dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors [DPP-4i]) with the risk of recurrent gout flares and all-cause mortality among patients with gout and type 2 diabetes. Design, Setting, and Participants This population-based retrospective cohort study was performed from January 1, 2013, to March 31, 2022, using a UK primary care database. Participants included patients with gout and type 2 diabetes with visits to their general practitioners. Exposures Initiation of treatment with SGLT2i or active comparators. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was the number of recurrent gout flares ascertained using recorded codes and prescription records. Secondary outcomes were the first recurrent gout flare and all-cause mortality. The association of SGLT2i compared with active comparators for the risk of recurrent flares, the first recurrent flare, and all-cause mortality was assessed using Poisson regression or the Cox proportional hazards model with propensity score overlap weighting. Results Of a total of 5931 patients included in the analysis (mean [SD] age, 66.0 [11.6] years; 4604 [77.6%] men), 1548 initiated SGLT2i treatment and 4383 initiated treatment with active comparators during the study period. The relative rate of the recurrent flares with SGLT2i vs active comparators was 0.79 (95% CI, 0.65-0.97). Similar results were observed in the association of SGLT2i with the rate of recurrent flares when compared with DPP-4i or GLP-1 RA. For the first recurrent flare for SGLT2i vs active comparators, rate difference was -8.8 (95% CI, -17.2 to -0.4) per 1000 person-years and the hazard ratio was 0.81 (95% CI, 0.65-0.98). All-cause mortality per 1000 person-years was 18.8 for SGLT2i and 24.9 for active comparators, with rate difference of -6.1 (95% CI, -10.6 to -1.6) per 1000 person-years and hazard ratio of 0.71 (95% CI, 0.52-0.97). Conclusions and Relevance The findings of this cohort study suggest that SGLT2i were associated with a lower risk of recurrent gout flares and mortality than their active comparators in patients with gout and type 2 diabetes. These findings further suggest that SGLT2i could help reduce the burden of recurrent gout flares and could also narrow the mortality gap between patients with gout and the general population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Clinical guidelines recommend exercise as a core treatment for knee or hip osteoarthritis (OA). However, how its analgesic effect compares to analgesics, for example, oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and paracetamol-the most commonly used analgesics for OA, remains unknown. DESIGN Network meta-analysis. DATA SOURCES PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane Library and Web of Science from database inception to January 2022. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR SELECTING STUDIES Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) comparing exercise therapy with oral NSAIDs and paracetamol directly or indirectly in knee or hip OA. RESULTS A total of n=152 RCTs (17 431 participants) were included. For pain relief, there was no difference between exercise and oral NSAIDs and paracetamol at or nearest to 4 (standardised mean difference (SMD)=-0.12, 95% credibility interval (CrI) -1.74 to 1.50; n=47 RCTs), 8 (SMD=0.22, 95% CrI -0.05 to 0.49; n=2 RCTs) and 24 weeks (SMD=0.17, 95% CrI -0.77 to 1.12; n=9 RCTs). Similarly, there was no difference between exercise and oral NSAIDs and paracetamol in functional improvement at or nearest to 4 (SMD=0.09, 95% CrI -1.69 to 1.85; n=40 RCTs), 8 (SMD=0.06, 95% CrI -0.20 to 0.33; n=2 RCTs) and 24 weeks (SMD=0.05, 95% CrI -1.15 to 1.24; n=9 RCTs). CONCLUSIONS Exercise has similar effects on pain and function to that of oral NSAIDs and paracetamol. Given its excellent safety profile, exercise should be given more prominence in clinical care, especially in older people with comorbidity or at higher risk of adverse events related to NSAIDs and paracetamol.CRD42019135166.

Abstract
Importance Vitamin D deficiency is commonly associated with sarcopenia; however, the latest International Clinical Practice Guidelines for Sarcopenia do not recommend vitamin D supplementation for sarcopenia owing to a lack of an apparent therapeutic effect on the indices of sarcopenia among participants with replete vitamin D concentration (ie, 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] level >20 ng/mL) from randomized clinical trials. While there is consensus in all vitamin D guidelines that serum levels of 25(OH)D less than 10 ng/mL should be corrected, approximately 30% of the world population's 25(OH)D levels range from 10 to 20 ng/mL, and it remains unclear whether such suboptimal levels can maintain optimal health, including sarcopenia risk. Objective To investigate the association of serum 25(OH)D level, especially suboptimal levels, with sarcopenia risk. Design, Setting, and Participants This genome-wide genetic association study was performed from August 2022 to February 2023 among the 295 489 unrelated European participants from the UK Biobank (2006-2010). Nonlinear and standard mendelian randomization analyses were used to examine the association of serum 25(OH)D concentration with sarcopenia risk. Exposures A weighted genetic risk score using 35 unrelated single-nucleotide variants from the UK Biobank and weights from the SUNLIGHT Consortium was selected as an instrumental variable for serum 25(OH)D concentration. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was sarcopenia, and the secondary outcomes consisted of grip strength, appendicular lean mass index, and gait speed. Results The final genetic analyses included 295 489 participants (mean [SD] age, 56.3 [8.1] years; 139 216 female [52.9%]). There was an L-shaped association between genetically predicted serum 25(OH)D concentration and sarcopenia risk. The risk of sarcopenia decreased rapidly as 25(OH)D concentration increased until 20 ng/mL and then leveled off. The odds ratio of sarcopenia for serum 25(OH)D level of 10 vs 20 ng/mL was 1.74 (95% CI, 1.17-2.59). Similar patterns were also observed when the association between serum 25(OH)D concentration and risks of each of the sarcopenia indices were evaluated. Conclusions and Relevance In this mendelian randomization genetic association study of adults in the UK Biobank, the findings supported a nonlinear association between suboptimal 25(OH)D levels and sarcopenia risk. Randomized clinical trials among participants with suboptimal 25(OH)D levels are required to verify the potential causality.

Abstract
Copper (Cu2+), as a heavy metal, accumulates in the human body to a certain extent, which can induce various diseases and endanger human health. Rapid and sensitive detection of Cu2+ is highly desired. In present work, a glutathione modified quantum dot (GSH-CdTe QDs) was synthesized and applied in a "turn-off" fluorescence probe to detect Cu2+. The fluorescence of GSH-CdTe QDs could be rapidly quenched in the presence of Cu2+ through aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ), resulting from the interaction between the surface functional groups of GSH-CdTe QDs and Cu2+ and the electrostatic attraction. In the range of 20-1100 nM, the Cu2+ concentration showed a good linear relationship with the fluorescence decline of the sensor, and the LOD is 10.12 nM, which was lower than the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defined limit (20 μM). Moreover, aiming to attain visual analysis, colorimetric method was also used for rapidly detecting Cu2+ by capturing the change in fluorescence color. Interestingly, the proposed approach has successfully been applied for the detection of Cu2+ in real samples (i.e., environment water, food and traditional Chinese medicine) with satisfactory results, which provides a promising strategy for the detection of Cu2+ in practical application with the merits of being rapid, simple and sensitive.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Angiotensin II is implicated in GCA pathology. We examined whether the use of angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) is associated with GCA risk compared with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEis) or other antihypertensives. METHODS We performed a matched cohort study including adults who were initiators of antihypertensives in UK primary care data between 1995 and 2019. Treatment-naïve individuals without prior GCA or PMR were categorized into three groups-ARB initiators, ACEi initiators, or other antihypertensive initiators (beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, diuretics or alpha-adrenoceptor blockers)-and followed for up to 5 years. Incident GCA was defined using validated Read codes, with age of onset ≥50 years and two or more glucocorticoid prescriptions. Inverse probability-weighted Cox models were used to model outcome risk, adjusting for lifestyle parameters, comorbidities and comedications. RESULTS Among >1 million new starters of antihypertensives (81 780 ARBs, 422 940 ACEis and 873 066 other antihypertensives), the incidence rate of GCA per 10 000 patient-years was 2.73 (95% CI 2.12, 3.50) in the ARB group, 1.76 (95% CI 1.25, 2.39) in the ACEi group and 1.90 (95% CI 1.37, 2.56) in the other antihypertensives group. The hazard of GCA was higher in ARB initiators [hazard ratio (HR) 1.55; 95% CI 1.16, 2.06] than initiators of ACEis, but similar between initiators of other antihypertensives and ACEis (HR 1.08; 95% CI 0.87, 1.35). CONCLUSIONS Initiation of ARBs is associated with a higher risk of GCA compared with ACEis or other antihypertensives. Mechanistic studies of angiotensin receptor biology will provide further clarity for our findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The COVID-19 pandemic has the potential to accelerate another pandemic: physical inactivity. Daily steps, a proxy of physical activity, are closely related to health. Recent studies indicate that over 7000 steps per day is the critical physical activity standard for minimizing the risk of all-cause mortality. Moreover, the risk of cardiovascular events has been found to increase by 8% for every 2000 steps per day decrement. OBJECTIVE To quantify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on daily steps in the general adult population. METHODS This study follows the guidelines of the MOOSE (Meta-analysis Of Observational Studies in Epidemiology) checklist. PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science were searched from inception to February 11, 2023. Eligible studies were observational studies reporting monitor-assessed daily steps before and during the confinement period of the COVID-19 pandemic in the general adult population. Two reviewers performed study selection and data extraction independently. The modified Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to assess the study quality. A random effects meta-analysis was conducted. The primary outcome of interest was the number of daily steps before (ie, January 2019 to February 2020) and during (ie, after January 2020) the confinement period of COVID-19. Publication bias was assessed with a funnel plot and further evaluated with the Egger test. Sensitivity analyses were performed by excluding studies with low methodological quality or small sample sizes to test the robustness of the findings. Other outcomes included subgroup analyses by geographic location and gender. RESULTS A total of 20 studies (19,253 participants) were included. The proportion of studies with subjects with optimal daily steps (ie, ≥7000 steps/day) declined from 70% before the pandemic to 25% during the confinement period. The change in daily steps between the 2 periods ranged from -5771 to -683 across studies, and the pooled mean difference was -2012 (95% CI -2805 to -1218). The asymmetry in the funnel plot and Egger test results did not indicate any significant publication bias. Results remained stable in sensitivity analyses, suggesting that the observed differences were robust. Subgroup analyses revealed that the decline in daily steps clearly varied by region worldwide but that there was no apparent difference between men and women. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that daily steps declined substantially during the confinement period of the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic further exacerbated the ever-increasing prevalence of low levels of physical activity, emphasizing the necessity of adopting appropriate measures to reverse this trend. Further research is required to monitor the consequence of long-term physical inactivity.

Abstract
In this work, a rapid and accurate strategy for classification of Chinese traditional cereal vinegars (CTCV) and antioxidant property predication was proposed by using the combination fluorescence spectroscopy and machine learning. Three characteristic fluorescent components were extracted by parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC), which have correlations greater than 0.8 with antioxidant activity of CTCV obtained by Pearson correlation analysis. Machine learning methods, including linear discriminant analysis (LDA), partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and N-way partial least squares discriminant analysis (N-PLS-DA), were used for the classification of different types of CTCV, and the correct classification rates was higher than 97%. The antioxidant property of CTCV were further quantified by using optimized variable-weighted least-squares support vector machine based on particle swarm optimization (PSO-VWLS-SVM). The proposed strategy provides a basis for further research on antioxidant active ingredients and antioxidant mechanisms of CTCV, and enable the continued exploration and application of CTCV from different types.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Synovial abnormalities are modifiable targets for hand pain and osteoarthritis. We examined the prevalence and distribution of ultrasound-detected hand synovial abnormalities in a community-derived sample of older people in China. METHODS Within the Xiangya Osteoarthritis Study, a community-based study, we assessed synovial hypertrophy (SH), joint effusion, and Power Doppler signal (PDS) on all fingers and thumbs of both hands using standardized ultrasound examinations (score: 0-3). We assessed distribution patterns of SH and effusion using χ2-test and interrelationships of SH and effusion in different joints and hands by generalized estimating equations. RESULTS Among 3,623 participants (mean age: 64.4 years; women: 58.1%), prevalence of SH, effusion and PDS were 85.5%, 87.3% and 1.5%, respectively. Prevalence of SH, effusion and PDS increased with age, was higher in the right hand than in the left hand and was more common in proximal than in distal hand joints. SH and effusion often occurred in multiple joints (P < 0.001). SH in one joint was strongly associated with presence of SH in the same joint of the opposite hand (odds ratio [OR]= 6.60, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 6.19-7.03) followed by SH in other joints in the same row, (OR=5.70, 95%CI: 5.32-6.11), and then other joints in the same ray of the same hand (OR=1.49, 95%CI: 1.39-1.60). Similar patterns were observed for effusion. CONCLUSION Hand synovial abnormalities are common among older people, often affect multiple hand joints and present a unique pattern. These findings suggest both systemic and mechanical factors play roles in their occurrence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are at higher risks for SARS-CoV-2 infection and its severe outcomes before and after COVID-19 vaccination. METHODS Using a UK primary care database, we conducted 2 cohort studies to compare the risks of SARS-CoV-2 infection, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19 between patients with RA and the general population according to their COVID-19 vaccination status. We used exposure score overlap weighting to balance baseline characteristics between 2 comparison cohorts. RESULTS Among unvaccinated individuals, the weighted incidence rates of SARS-CoV-2 infection (9.21 versus 8.16 of 1,000 person-months), hospitalization (3.46 versus 2.14 of 1,000 person-months), and death (1.19 versus 0.62 of 1,000 person-months) were higher among patients with RA than the general population over 3 months of follow-up; the corresponding adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) were 1.10 (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.00-1.24), 1.62 (95% CI 1.34-1.96), and 1.88 (95% CI 1.37-2.60), respectively. Among vaccinated individuals, the weighted rates of breakthrough infection (4.17 versus 3.96 of 1,000 person-months; HR 1.10 [95% CI 1.00-1.20]) and hospitalization (0.42 versus 0.32 of 1,000 person-months; HR 1.29 [95% CI 0.96-1.75]) were higher among patients with RA than the general population over 9 months of follow-up; however, no apparent difference in the risk of these outcomes was observed over 3 and 6 months of follow-up between 2 comparison cohorts. CONCLUSION Patients with RA are still at higher risks of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 hospitalization than the general population after receiving COVID-19 vaccines. These findings support booster COVID-19 vaccinations and adherence of other preventive strategies among patients with RA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To estimate the effect of denosumab compared with oral bisphosphonates on reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes in adults with osteoporosis. DESIGN Population based study involving emulation of a randomized target trial using electronic health records. SETTING IQVIA Medical Research Data primary care database in the United Kingdom, 1995-2021. PARTICIPANTS Adults aged 45 years or older who used denosumab or an oral bisphosphonate for osteoporosis. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome was incident type 2 diabetes, as defined by diagnostic codes. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate adjusted hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals, comparing denosumab with oral bisphosphonates using an as treated approach. RESULTS 4301 new users of denosumab were matched on propensity score to 21 038 users of an oral bisphosphonate and followed for a mean of 2.2 years. The incidence rate of type 2 diabetes in denosumab users was 5.7 (95% confidence interval 4.3 to 7.3) per 1000 person years and in oral bisphosphonate users was 8.3 (7.4 to 9.2) per 1000 person years. Initiation of denosumab was associated with a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes (hazard ratio 0.68, 95% confidence interval 0.52 to 0.89). Participants with prediabetes appeared to benefit more from denosumab compared with an oral bisphosphonate (hazard ratio 0.54, 0.35 to 0.82), as did those with a body mass index ≥30 (0.65, 0.40 to 1.06). CONCLUSIONS In this population based study, denosumab use was associated with a lower risk of incident type 2 diabetes compared with oral bisphosphonate use in adults with osteoporosis. This study provides evidence at a population level that denosumab may have added benefits for glucose metabolism compared with oral bisphosphonates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Postoperative complications confer an increased risk of reoperation, prolonged length of hospital stay, and increased mortality. Many studies have attempted to identify the complex associations among complications to preemptively interrupt their progression, but few studies have looked at complications as a whole to reveal and quantify their possible trajectories of progression. The main objective of this study was to construct and quantify the association network among multiple postoperative complications from a comprehensive perspective to elucidate the possible evolution trajectories. METHODS In this study, a Bayesian network model was proposed to analyze the associations among 15 complications. Prior evidence and score-based hill-climbing algorithms were used to build the structure. The severity of complications was graded according to their connection to death, with the association between them quantified using conditional probabilities. The data of surgical inpatients used in this study were collected from four regionally representative academic/teaching hospitals in a prospective cohort study in China. RESULTS In the network obtained, 15 nodes represented complications or death, and 35 arcs with arrows represented the directly dependent relationship between them. With three grades classified on that basis, the correlation coefficients of complications within grades increased with increased grade, ranging from -0.11 to -0.06, 0.16, and 0.21 to 0.4 in grade 1 to grade 3, respectively. Moreover, the probability of each complication in the network increased with the occurrence of any other complication, even mild complications. Most seriously, once cardiac arrest requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation occurs, the probability of death will be up to 88.1%. CONCLUSIONS The present evolving network can facilitate the identification of strong associations among specific complications and provides a basis for the development of targeted measures to prevent further deterioration in high-risk patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Attentions have been paid to the optimal anesthesia for knee arthroplasty (KA). We sought to investigate whether neuraxial anesthesia (NA) is superior to general anesthesia (GA) in terms of perioperative outcomes and resource utilization following KA. METHODS Patients undergoing primary KA registered in the Hospital Quality Monitoring System (HQMS) in China during 2013-2019 were identified. By utilizing a time-stratified propensity score matching, every patient receiving NA was matched by propensity score to a patient receiving GA. Then, we conducted Poisson, logistic, and linear regression to compare NA with GA in terms of perioperative outcomes and resource utilization. RESULTS Of 109,132 included participants, 75,945 (69.59%) underwent KA with GA and 33,187 (30.41%) with NA. After propensity score matching (26,425 participants per group), NA was associated with lower incidence of blood transfusion (OR: 0.82, 95% CI 0.77-0.87; p < 0.0001), 30-day readmission (OR: 0.76, 95% CI 0.68-0.84; p < 0.0001), and 90-day readmission (OR: 0.83, 95% CI 0.77-0.90; p < 0.0001). No statistically significant difference in in-hospital mortality, incidence of pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, and surgical site infection was found. In addition, NA was associated with a 1% decrease in length of stay (95% CI 0-2%; p = 0.0070) and a 3% lower total hospital charge (95% CI 2-4%; p < 0.0001) when compared with GA. CONCLUSION Compared with GA, NA was associated with decreased incidence of blood transfusion, readmission, reduced length of stay, and total hospital charge following KA, suggesting the favorable role of NA for perioperative outcomes and resource utilization in KA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Gout is associated with a higher risk of fracture; however, the associations of hyperuricemia and urate-lowering therapy (ULT) with the risk of fracture have been inconsistent. We examined whether lowering serum urate (SU) levels with ULT to a target level (i.e., <360 μmol/L) reduces risk of fracture among people with gout. METHOD We emulated analyses of a hypothetical target trial using a "cloning, censoring, and weighting" approach to examine the association between lowering SU with ULT to the target levels and the risk of fracture using data from The Health Improvement Network, a United Kingdom primary care database. Individuals with gout who were 40 years or older and initiated ULT were included in the study. RESULTS Among 28,554 people with gout, the 5-year risk of hip fracture was 0.5% for the "achieving the target SU level" arm and 0.8% for "not achieving the target SU level" arm, respectively. The risk difference and hazard ratio for "achieving the target SU level" arm was -0.3% (95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.5% to -0.1%) and 0.66 (95% CI: 0.46 to 0.93), respectively, compared with "not achieving the target SU level". Similar results were observed when the associations of lowering SU level with ULT to the target levels with the risk of composite fracture, major osteoporotic fracture, vertebral fracture, and non-vertebral fracture were assessed. CONCLUSIONS In this population-based study, lowering the SU level with ULT to the guideline-based target level is associated with a lower risk of incident fracture in people with gout.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although most frequently used in experimental osteoarthritis (OA) pain induction, intra-articular mono-iodoacetate (MIA) injection lacks concluded references for dose selection and timing of intervention. Herein, we aimed to compare the pain intensity of rats induced by different doses of MIA and explored the trajectory of pain. DESIGN PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science were searched up to June 2021 for literatures involving MIA experiments investigating OA pain. Pain intensity was measured based on weightbearing distribution (WBD) and paw withdrawal thresholds (PWT), and the pain trajectory was constructed by evaluating pain intensity at a series of time points after MIA injection. A conventional meta-analysis was conducted. RESULTS A total of 140 studies were included. Compared with saline, MIA injections caused significantly higher pain intensity for WBD and PWT. Dose-response relationships between different doses of MIA and pain intensity were observed (P-for-trend<0.05). A pronounced increase in pain occurred from day 0 to day 7, but the uptrend ceased between day 7 and day 14, after which the pain intensity continued to rise and reached the maximum by day 28. CONCLUSIONS Pain intensity after intra-articular MIA injection increased in a dose-dependent manner and the pain trajectory manifested a specific pattern consistent with the pathological mechanisms of MIA-induced pain, providing possible clues for proper dose selection and timing of specific OA pain interventions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and its related severe sequelae between patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and the general population according to COVID-19 vaccination status. METHODS We performed cohort studies using data from The Health Improvement Network to compare the risks of SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe sequelae between patients with SLE and the general population. Individuals aged 18-90 years with no previously documented SARS-CoV-2 infection were included. We estimated the incidence rates and HRs of SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe sequelae between patients with SLE and the general population according to COVID-19 vaccination status using exposure score overlap weighted Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS We identified 3245 patients with SLE and 1 755 034 non-SLE individuals from the unvaccinated cohort. The rates of SARS-CoV-2 infection, COVID-19 hospitalisation, COVID-19 death and combined severe outcomes per 1000 person-months were 10.95, 3.21, 1.16 and 3.86 among patients with SLE, and 8.50, 1.77, 0.53 and 2.18 among general population, respectively. The corresponding adjusted HRs were 1.28 (95% CI: 1.03 to 1.59), 1.82 (95% CI: 1.21 to 2.74), 2.16 (95% CI: 1.00 to 4.79) and 1.78 (95% CI: 1.21 to 2.61). However, no statistically significant differences were observed between vaccinated patients with SLE and vaccinated general population over 9 months of follow-up. CONCLUSION While unvaccinated patients with SLE were at higher risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and its severe sequelae than the general population, no such difference was observed among vaccinated population. The findings indicate that COVID-19 vaccination provides an adequate protection to most patients with SLE from COVID-19 breakthrough infection and its severe sequelae.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Both BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) and ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (Oxford-AstraZeneca) vaccines have shown high efficacy against COVID-19 in randomized controlled trials. However, their comparative effectiveness against COVID-19 is unclear in the real world. We evaluated the comparative effectiveness of the BNT162b2 and ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccines against COVID-19 in the UK general population. METHODS We emulated a target trial using IQVIA Medical Research Database (IMRD), an electronic primary care database from the UK (2021). We included 1,311,075 participants, consisting of 637,549 men and 673,526 women age≥18 years, who received vaccination with BNT162b2 or ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 between January 1 and August 31, 2021. The outcomes consisted of confirmed diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection, hospitalisation for COVID-19 and death from COVID-19 in the IMRD. We performed a cox-proportional hazard model to compare the risk of each outcome variable between the two vaccines adjusting for potential confounders with time-stratified overlap weighting of propensity score (PS). RESULTS During a mean of 6.7 months of follow-up, 20,070 confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection occurred in individuals who received BNT162b2 vaccine (PS weighted incidence rate: 3.65 per 1000 person-months), and 31,611 SARS-CoV-2 infection occurred in those who received ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine (PS weighted incidence rate: 5.25 per 1000 person-months). The time-stratified PS weighted rate difference of SARS-CoV-2 infection for BNT162b2 group vs. ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 group was -1.60 per 1000 person-months (95% confidence interval [CI]: -1.76 to -1.43 per 1000 person-months), and the hazard ratio was 0.69 (95% CI: 0.68 to 0.71). The results were similar across the stratum of sex, age (<65 and ≥65 years), and study periods (i.e., alpha-variant predominance period and delta-variant predominance period). The PS weighted incidence of hospitalisation for COVID-19 was also lower in the BNT162b2 vaccine group than that in the ChAdOx1 vaccine group (RD: -0.09, 95%CI: -0.13 to -0.05 per 1000 person-months; HR: 0.65, 95%CI: 0.57 to 0.74). No significant difference in the risk of death from COVID-19 was observed between the two comparison groups. CONCLUSIONS In this population-based study, the BNT162b2 vaccine appears to be more efficacious than the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 infection and hospitalisation for COVID-19 but not death from COVID-19.

Abstract
BACKGROUND National epidemiological data in China are absent for revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This study aimed to investigate the burden and characteristics of revision TKA in China. METHODS We reviewed 4,503 revision TKA cases registered in the Hospital Quality Monitoring System in China between 2013 and 2018 using International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) codes. Revision burden was determined by the ratio of the number of revision procedures to the total number of TKA procedures. Demographic characteristics, hospital characteristics, and hospitalization charges were identified. RESULTS The revision TKA cases accounted for 2.4% of all TKA cases. The revision burden showed an increasing trend from 2013 to 2018 (2.3 to 2.5%) (P for trend = 0.034). Gradual increases in revision TKA were observed in patients aged > 60 years. The most common causes for revision TKA were infection (33.0%) and mechanical failure (19.5%). More than 70% of the patients were hospitalized in provincial hospitals. A total of 17.6% patients were hospitalized in a hospital outside the province of their residence. The hospitalization charges continued to increase between 2013 and 2015 and remained roughly stable over the next three years. CONCLUSIONS This study provided epidemiological data for revision TKA in China based on a national database. There was a growing trend of revision burden during the study period. The focalized nature of operations in a few higher volume regions was observed and many patients had to travel to obtain their revision procedure.

Abstract
In osteoarthritis (OA), chondrocytes undergo many pathological alternations that are linked with cellular senescence. However, the exact pathways that lead to the generation of a senescence-like phenotype in OA chondrocytes are not clear. Previously, we found that loss of estrogen receptor-α (ERα) was associated with an increased senescence level in human chondrocytes. Since DNA damage is a common cause of cellular senescence, we aimed to study the relationship among ERα levels, DNA damage, and senescence in chondrocytes. We first examined the levels of ERα, representative markers of DNA damage and senescence in normal and OA cartilage harvested from male and female human donors, as well as from male mice. The influence of DNA damage on ERα levels was studied by treating human chondrocytes with doxorubicin (DOX), which is an often-used DNA-damaging agent. Next, we tested the potential of overexpressing ERα in reducing DNA damage and senescence levels. Lastly, we explored the interaction between ERα and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) pathway. Results indicated that the OA chondrocytes contained DNA damage and displayed senescence features, which were accompanied by significantly reduced ERα levels. Overexpression of ERα reduced the levels of DNA damage and senescence in DOX-treated normal chondrocytes and OA chondrocytes. Moreover, DOX-induced the activation of NF-κB pathway, which was partially reversed by overexpressing ERα. Taken together, our results demonstrated the critical role of ERα in maintaining the health of chondrocytes by inhibiting DNA damage and senescence. This study also suggests that maintaining the ERα level may represent a new avenue to prevent and treat OA.

Abstract
Hip arthroscopy is an effective surgical approach for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome with concomitant mild hip osteoarthritis (OA). However, in the FAI patients with moderate to advanced hip OA (Tönnis grade 2 or greater), whether hip arthroscopy could provide symptomatic relief or delay the need for an ultimate total hip arthroplasty surgery is controversial. The literature is heterogeneous and of generally lower quality evidence. Recent research reporting 10-year outcomes of hip arthroscopy in patients with hip OA shows 57% survivorship, and 78% survivor satisfaction. With unpredictable results, surgeons and well informed patients could hold some hope for a positive outcome after arthroscopy of an arthritic hip. As the Tönnis grading system shows poor interobserver reliability, surgeons may need to carefully consider their personal indications and resultant outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine efficacy and safety of tramadol for knee or hip osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched up to May 2020 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing any of the following interventions: tramadol 100 mg/day, 200 mg/day, and 300 mg/day, and placebo for knee or hip OA. Pain and function were measured at or near 12 weeks for efficacy. Gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and central nervous system (CNS) adverse events (AEs), and withdrawals were measured for safety. Bayesian network meta-analysis was conducted. RESULTS Six RCTs (3,611 participants) were included. Tramadol 100 mg/day (standardized mean difference [SMD] -0.16 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) -0.34, 0.00]), 200 mg/day (SMD -0.21 [95% CI -0.37, -0.06]), and 300 mg/day (SMD -0.30 [95% CI -0.48, -0.14]) were statistically more effective than placebo in pain relief, but only tramadol 300 mg/day was better than placebo in functional improvement (SMD -0.24 [95% CI -0.47, -0.03]). Tramadol 100 mg/day (relative risk [RR] 2.29 [95% credible interval (CrI) 1.22, 4.25]), 200 mg/day (RR 4.35 [95% CrI 2.31, 8.01]), and 300 mg/day (RR 6.02 [95% CrI 3.22, 11.1]) involved a higher risk of gastrointestinal AEs. Similarly, tramadol 100-300 mg/day showed a higher risk of CNS AEs and withdrawals. However, the risk of cardiovascular AEs remained unclear. CONCLUSION Only tramadol 300 mg/day showed minimal improvement in pain and function but with increasing AEs compared with placebo. Tramadol may not be sufficiently recommended for knee or hip OA based on the presented evidence, especially in patients with the risk of gastrointestinal and CNS AEs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Gout patients often have multiple comorbidities, making them susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection and poor outcomes. This study was undertaken to examine the association between gout and the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe outcomes, especially in patients who have received a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. METHODS We conducted 2 cohort studies using The Health Improvement Network in the UK. Individuals with gout and those without gout from the general population were followed up from December 8, 2020 to October 31, 2021. We estimated the rate difference (RD) and hazard ratio (HR) of SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe outcomes (i.e., hospitalization and death within 30 days after SARS-CoV-2 infection) for individuals with gout versus those without gout using a Cox proportional hazards model according to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination status. We adjusted for potential confounders by using overlap weighting of exposure scores. RESULTS Among the vaccinated cohort, 1,955 cases of breakthrough COVID-19 infection occurred in 54,576 individuals with gout (4.68 cases per 1,000 person-months), and 52,468 cases occurred in 1,336,377 individuals without gout (3.76 cases per 1,000 person-months). The partially adjusted RD of breakthrough infection was 0.91 cases per 1,000 person-months (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 0.62-1.20 cases per 1,000 person-months), and the partially adjusted HR was 1.24 (95% CI 1.19-1.30). Gout was also associated with an increased risk of hospitalization (adjusted HR 1.30 [95% CI 1.10-1.53]) and death (adjusted HR 1.36 [95% CI 0.87-2.13]). Women with gout had an increased risk of hospitalization (adjusted HR 1.55 [95% CI 1.15-2.10]) and death (adjusted HR 2.46 [95% CI 1.12-5.41]). Similar associations with gout were observed in the unvaccinated cohort. CONCLUSION These general population data suggest that individuals with gout, especially women, have higher risks of SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe outcomes, even when vaccinated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Baker's cyst is the most common cystic disease of the knee, and a fast and accurate diagnosis of Baker's cyst is essential for a better management. Ultrasound is a rapid, portable, widely available, inexpensive and noninvasive imaging modality. However, the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound on Baker's cyst still remains undetermined. We conducted the first meta-analysis to comprehensively assess the accuracy of ultrasound for the detection of Baker's cyst. METHODS PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were searched from inception to July 14, 2022, without language restrictions. Studies providing cross-tabulations of ultrasound versus pathology (gold standard) or MRI (standard imaging technique) for diagnosis of Baker's cyst were included. Indicators for the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound, including sensitivity, specificity and area under the curve, were calculated using a bivariate model. Sensitivity analysis was conducted to evaluate the heterogeneity and robustness of the results. RESULTS A total of 13 studies with 1,011 subjects (mean age 32.2 years; men 53.5%) met the inclusion criteria. The pooled sensitivity, specificity and area under the curve of ultrasound for diagnosis of Baker's cyst, compared with pathology, were 0.97 (95% confidence intervals: 0.73-1.00), 1.00 (0.98-1.00) and 1.00 (0.99-1.00), respectively. The pooled estimates of ultrasound versus MRI were 0.94 (0.87-0.98) for sensitivity, 1.00 (0.83-1.00) for specificity and 0.97 (0.95-0.98) for area under the curve. Sensitivity analysis did not change the results materially. CONCLUSION Ultrasound shows excellent diagnostic accuracy for the assessment of Baker's cyst and provides similar diagnostic information (absent or present) compared to MRI. Because of its advantages of low cost, portability and accessibility, ultrasound is likely to be a choice of imaging technique for screening Baker's cyst in clinical and population settings as well as in follow-ups.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the postoperative outcomes of 4 different femoral drilling techniques in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. METHODS Three databases were searched for randomized controlled trials comparing any 2 or more of the following femoral drilling techniques in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: standard transtibial (sTT), anteromedial portal (AMP), outside-in (OI), or modified transtibial (mTT) technique. A Bayesian network meta-analysis was performed to assess postoperative stability and functional recovery in terms of the side-to-side difference (measured by arthrometry), Lachman test, pivot-shift test, International Knee Documentation Committee subjective and objective scores, Lysholm score, and Tegner score. The Fisher exact probability test and χ2 test were used to compare the incidences of infection and graft rupture, respectively. RESULTS We included 20 randomized controlled trials involving 1,515 patients. The AMP technique showed a lower side-to-side difference (standardized mean difference, -0.33; 95% credible interval [CrI], -0.53 to -0.12), higher negative rate on the pivot-shift test (odds ratio, 2.19; 95% CrI, 1.38 to 3.44), and higher International Knee Documentation Committee objective score (odds ratio, 3.13; 95% CrI, 1.42 to 7.82) than the sTT technique. However, knee stability and functional outcomes did not differ significantly between the OI and sTT techniques. Safety outcomes of the mTT technique were unavailable. The incidence of graft rupture was 5.20% for the OI technique, 2.27% for the AMP technique, and 1.51% for the sTT technique. The OI technique had a significantly higher incidence of graft rupture than the sTT technique (χ2 = 4.421, P = .035). No significant difference in the incidence of infection was found between the sTT, AMP, and OI techniques (P = .281). CONCLUSIONS The AMP technique, but not the OI technique, was superior to the sTT technique in knee stability and functional recovery. The OI technique had a higher incidence of graft rupture than the sTT technique. There was no significant difference between the AMP and OI techniques or between the mTT technique and any other femoral drilling technique. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level II, meta-analysis of Level I and II studies.
