Abstract Background Arthritis (or compression) gloves are widely prescribed to people with rheumatoid arthritis and other forms of hand arthritis. They are prescribed for daytime wear to reduce hand pain and improve hand function, and/or night-time wear to reduce pain, improve sleep and reduce morning stiffness. However, evidence for their effectiveness is limited. The aims of this study were to investigate the clinical and cost effectiveness of arthritis gloves compared to placebo gloves on hand pain, stiffness and function in people with rheumatoid arthritis and persistent hand pain. Methods A parallel randomised controlled trial, in adults (≥ 18 years) with rheumatoid or undifferentiated inflammatory arthritis at 16 National Health Service sites in the UK. Patients with persistent hand pain affecting function and/or sleep were eligible. Randomisation (1:1) was stratified by recent change (or not) in medication, using permuted blocks of random sizes. Three-quarter-finger length arthritis gloves (Isotoner®: applying 23-32 mmHg pressure) (intervention) were compared to loose-fitting placebo gloves (Jobskin® classic: providing no/minimal pressure) (control). Both gloves (considered to have similar thermal qualities) were provided by occupational therapists. Patients and outcome assessors were blinded; clinicians were not. The primary outcome was dominant hand pain on activity (0–10) at 12 weeks, analysed using linear regression and intention to treat principles. Results Two hundred six participants were randomly assigned (103 per arm) and 163 (84 intervention: 79 control) completed 12-week follow-up. Hand pain improved by 1.0 (intervention) and 1.2 (control), an adjusted mean difference of 0.10 (95% CI: − 0.47 to 0.67; p = 0.72). Adverse events were reported by 51% of intervention and 36% of control group participants; with 6 and 7% respectively, discontinuing glove wear. Provision of arthritis gloves cost £129, with no additional benefit. Conclusion The trial provides evidence of no clinically important effect of arthritis gloves on any of the trial outcomes (hand pain, function and stiffness) and arthritis gloves are not cost-effective. The clinical and cost-effectiveness results support ceasing provision of arthritis gloves in routine clinical practice. Funding: National Institute for Health Research.

Objective To investigate the metabolic syndrome (MetS) association with radiographic and symptomatic hand osteoarthritis (OA). Methods Using 1:2 propensity-score-matching for relevant confounders, we included 2509 (MetS+896: MetS–1613) participants from the Osteoarthritis Initiative dataset. MetS and its components, according to the International Diabetes Federation criteria, were extracted from baseline data, including hypertension, abdominal obesity, dyslipidemia, and diabetes. We scored distinct hand joints based on modified Kellgren–Lawrence grade (mKL) of baseline radiographs, with OA defined as mKL≥2. In the cross-sectional analysis, we investigated the association between MetS and its components with radiographic hand OA and the presence of nodal and erosive OA phenotypes using regression models. In the longitudinal analysis, we performed Cox regression analysis for hand pain incidence in follow-up visits. Results MetS was associated with higher odds of radiographic hand OA, including the number of joints with OA (odds ratio, 95%confidence interval:1.32, 1.08–1.62), the sum of joints mKLs (2.42, 1.24–4.71), mainly in distal and proximal interphalangeal joints (DIPs:1.52, 1.08–2.14, PIPs:1.38, 1.09–1.75), but not metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and first carpometacarpal (CMC1) joints. Hand pain incidence during follow-up was higher with MetS presence (hazard ratio, 95%CI:1.25, 1.07–1.47). Erosive hand OA phenotype and joints' nodal involvement were more frequent with MetS (1.40, 1.01–1.97, and 1.28, 1.02–1.60). Conclusion MetS, a potentially modifiable risk factor, is associated with radiographic DIP and PIP OA and longitudinal hand pain incidence while sparing MCPs and CMC1. Nodal and erosive OA phenotypes are associated with MetS, suggestive of possible distinct pathophysiology.

Introduction: Hand pain is a complaint that often found in daily practice. Electroneuromyography (ENMG) examination has pivotal role neuromuscular disorders in hand pain. This study aims to determine ENMG profile of patients with hand pain complaints also its characteristics. Methods: This research is a descriptive observational study. Data were obtained by interviewing technique conducted in neurology polyclinic General Hospital of Dr. Saiful Anwar Malang (RSSA), comprises patient characteristic and their ENMG summaries. There were a total of 58 patients with hand complaint that fulfilled inclusion criteria. ENMG was conducted to all research subjects. Results: For 10 months (April 2017 – December 2017) there were 58 patients complained of hand pain, comprised 50 new patients (86%) and 8 old patients (13%). A total of 41 subjects (71%) were women and 17 subjects (29%) were men with complaints of unilateral hand 44 (76%) and bilateral 14 (24%) subjects. The major age group was 45-55 years (70%). The average occupation that experienced by patients was housewife (63%). Patients came with paresthesia as their most complaints (60%) with positive Tinnel sign found in 62% of patients and hypertension 34% and DM 24% as comorbids. ENMG was conducted to all patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) 44 patients (75%), polyneuropathy 6 patients (10%), de Quervain 6 patients (10%) as results. Conclusion: The most ENMG results of patients with hand pain complaints is carpal tunnel syndrome.
