EULAR Review: Diet & Rheumatic Conditions 🥑🐟

🔗 Original Article

This comprehensive review (24 meta-analyses, 150 studies) suggests that some foods & supplements may offer minor relief for symptoms in RMDs:

• Fish Oil 🐟: Pain relief in OA & RA.

• Avocado & Soybeans 🥑🌱: Small benefits in OA pain & function.

• Curcumin 🌿: Effective for OA pain.

• Chondroitin & Glucosamine 💊: Modest pain reduction in OA.

• Vitamin D 🌞: Minor impact on OA pain & function.

🔴 PROHIP Trial: Total Hip Replacement vs. Resistance Training for Severe Hip Osteoarthritis

🦴 Background
Total hip replacement (THR) vs. resistance training was compared for patients 50+ with severe hip osteoarthritis.

🔍 Method
Multicentre trial with 109 patients, mean age 67.6, assigned to THR or resistance training.

📊 Results

Improvement in Oxford Hip Score: THR group +15.9 points vs. resistance training +4.5 points (difference: 11.4, P < 0.001).
• At 6 months, 21% of the resistance training group had undergone THR due to inadequate improvement.
• Serious adverse events were similar across groups.

Conclusion: THR offers superior pain reduction and function improvement.

🔴 Collagenase Injection versus Limited Fasciectomy for Dupuytren’s Contracture (Original Article)
Link: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2312631

📚 Background: Treatments for Dupuytren’s contracture include limited fasciectomy and collagenase injection, but comparative effectiveness data are limited.

🩺 Methods: This pragmatic, two-group, randomized, controlled trial assessed the noninferiority of collagenase injection compared to limited fasciectomy in patients with moderate Dupuytren’s contracture. The primary outcome was the Patient Evaluation Measure–Hand Health Profile score at 1 year post-treatment.

📊 Results: Among 599 participants, the mean score on the Patient Evaluation Measure at 1 year was 17.8 for collagenase and 11.9 for fasciectomy, with a noninferiority margin not met. Complications were lower in the collagenase group (1.8% vs. 5.1%).

▪️ Conclusions: Collagenase injection was not noninferior to limited fasciectomy regarding hand health outcomes at 1 year.

Effects of Reducing Sedentary Behavior on Back Pain and Muscle Health (Original Article)
Link: https://bmjopen.bmj.com/content/14/9/e084305

🔹 Objective: Investigate the impact of reducing sedentary behavior (SB) on back pain and muscle health in adults with obesity and metabolic syndrome.

🔹 Methods: 64 adults were randomized into intervention (reduce SB by 1 hour/day) and control groups. Assessments included back pain, disability, insulin sensitivity, and muscle fat fraction.

🔹 Results:

• Pain-related disability increased in both groups.
• Back pain intensity remained unchanged in the intervention group but increased in controls (p=0.030).
• No significant changes in muscle insulin sensitivity or fat fraction were observed.

Conclusion: SB reduction interventions may prevent worsening back pain without significantly affecting muscle health metrics.
