🚨Standard scRNA-seq often excludes cells with high mitochondrial RNA content (pMT).🚨
Work by Tran et al. investigates how exclusion of high-pMT cells affects the transcriptional landscape of knee OA synovium and explores their role in disease.

Hey @ACRSimpleTasks -- this needs updating! #OA should not be described as 'wear and tear'. And management options in the link are not all evidence-based, and in fact, contradict some of the @ACRheum + @ArthritisFdn 2019 osteoarthritis treatment guideline! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Really happy that Ontario is now allowing for outdoor activities during this 3rd wave with playgrounds etc open.
This is a smart move, enables physical & mental health, & is grounded in good science.
Much appreciated.

Knowledge helps people to make health choices. We want to find out what people know about hip and knee arthritis so that we can build and test better information.
If you have knee or hip arthritis, please complete a brief (10 mins) survey: otago.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/…
