    Joint Shape Change as a Target for Understanding, Diagnosis, Prevention, and Treatment of Osteoarthritis
    DOD US Army Med. Res. Acq. Activity PR221675Aug 15, 2023 - Aug 14, 2027
    Role: Co-Investigator
    Description: The overall goals are to improve the diagnosis and treatment of post-traumatic knee osteoarthritis by uncovering osteocyte-dependent mechanisms responsible for clinically relevant changes in knee shape by using a novel approach to find genetic correlates of artificial intelligence-identified MRI features implicated in early-stage knee arthritis.

    Altmetrics Details PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
