Global estimates suggest more than one in five people over the age of 40 have a form of chronic knee pain.

Key Points: 
  • Global estimates suggest more than one in five people over the age of 40 have a form of chronic knee pain.
  • But just because knee pain is common doesn’t mean you have to live with it.
  • No matter the cause, tackling knee pain is often relatively straightforward when you know what to do.
  • People with inflammatory arthritis such as gout or rheumatoid arthritis can have flare-ups that cause knee pain.

Managing pain

    • The best way of managing knee pain depends on the cause.
    • Keep strong and active: Strengthening the muscles around your knee will noticeably reduce pain and stiffness.
    • Modify your activities: Some people find pacing their activities (such as doing certain tasks when your knee pain isn’t as bad, or spacing out activities that you know may cause pain), using walking aids or wearing shoes with shock-absorbing soles (such as good trainers) to be useful.
    • But these changes may only make a small difference in managing knee pain.
    • If you find your knee pain is made worse by your work, you may also want to make some changes to the way you normally do things to help reduce pain.

Preventing pain

    • But if your knee pain is due to a problem such as a ruptured ligament or advanced osteoarthritis, knee surgery may be recommended.
    • For people with advanced osteoarthritis, operations such as total knee replacement can lead to big improvements in pain, ability to carry out daily activities and overall wellbeing.
    • GPs may recommend painkillers in some circumstances – for example if your knee pain is stopping you exercising.

Migraine: A common headache disorder that is underdiagnosed and undertreated

However, even in Canada, with a universal health-care system, migraine is underdiagnosed and undertreated.

Key Points: 
  • However, even in Canada, with a universal health-care system, migraine is underdiagnosed and undertreated.
  • Policymakers need to act now to remove the barriers to accessing migraine medications in Canada, particularly as new medications are marketed.

What is migraine?

    • Pain typically affects one side of the head and presents with nausea or vomiting, sensitivity to light or sound and interference with routine physical activity.
    • Migraine can be episodic (fewer than 15 headache days per month) or chronic (15 or more headache days per month for longer than three months).

Impact of migraine

    • Migraine is associated with lost productivity and with other health conditions including asthma, epilepsy and cardiovascular disease.
    • Furthermore, migraine can contribute to mental health problems, including depression and anxiety.
    • Canada is no stranger to this trend, where migraine affects 4.7 per cent of men and 11.8 per cent of women each year.

Historically, migraine has been underdiagnosed

    • Factors influencing diagnosis include an individual’s ability and willingness to access care, and a physician identifying and correctly diagnosing migraine.
    • However, research has demonstrated that for chronic migraine, most individuals report consulting a physician about their headaches.
    • This suggests that in people with chronic migraine specifically, underdiagnosis may be driven by the failure to receive a correct diagnosis from a health-care provider.

Migraine-specific medications are under-used

    • Triptans are among the oldest migraine-specific medications, and the first-line treatment for migraine for those who do not get relief from over-the-counter medications.
    • Despite this, many individuals living with migraine in Canada do not use or have not tried migraine-specific medications.
    • As new migraine-specific medications are approved in Canada, it is important that those who need them can access these treatments.
    • These medications are used to prevent migrainous headaches, and cost over $600 per month.

Steps you can take if you think you might have migraine

    • Migraine Buddy is a migraine tracking app with a questionnaire to help individuals determine if they may have migraine and should discuss their symptoms with a physician.
    • Effective treatment options exist to manage migraine, which can be accessed through a physician.

Daily aspirin doesn't prevent strokes in older, healthy people after all

The daily use of low dose aspirin has been a mainstay of preventing strokes for decades.

Key Points: 
  • The daily use of low dose aspirin has been a mainstay of preventing strokes for decades.
  • While there has always been a risk of bleeding associated with aspirin use, the benefits were thought to outweigh the risk.
  • Now new research led by Monash University has shown daily, low-dose aspirin doesn’t prevent strokes in relatively healthy people aged over 70.

Why has aspirin been used to prevent strokes?

    • They are what stop you from continuously bleeding any time you have a cut or scrape on your skin.
    • Because aspirin acts on platelets, it can help prevent the clots that can lead to a stroke.
    • But because aspirin acts on platelets, it can also increase the risk of unwanted bleeding, usually in the stomach.

Findings of the Monash trial

    • New research from Australia and the United States reports results from the Aspirin in Reducing Events in the Elderly (ASPREE) trial.
    • When compared with placebo, aspirin didn’t reduce or increase the risk of stroke.
    • Read more:
      Daily low-dose aspirin doesn't reduce heart-attack risk in healthy people

      These findings are not entirely new.

    • Research published five years ago based on the same ASPREE trial showed a similar result: a higher rate of bleeding among those taking low-dose aspirin compared with placebo.

What are the study’s limitations?

    • So we don’t know whether the results are translatable to people with different ethnic backgrounds.
    • Younger age groups were not studied either, so we cannot make any conclusions about their use of low dose aspirin to prevent stroke.

I’m taking aspirin, what should I do?

    • If you’re taking daily low-dose aspirin and are concerned by the results of the study, it’s important you don’t just stop taking your medicine.
    • For people who are at high risk of having a stroke, or have previously had one, low-dose aspirin may remain their treatment of choice despite the slight bleeding risk.
    • Nial regularly consults to industry on issues to do with medicine risk assessments, manufacturing, design, and testing.

Male fertility crisis: what environmental contaminants have got to do with it

For many years people tended to blame women for a couple’s infertility – especially in African countries.

Key Points: 
  • For many years people tended to blame women for a couple’s infertility – especially in African countries.
  • And men worldwide – Africa included – are experiencing a worrying trend of decreased sperm count and quality.
  • However, it is clear that environmental contaminants play a large part in declining fertility worldwide.
  • Other contaminants that are increasing in prevalence and show signs of entering our food chain are pesticides and medication.

Impact on male fertility

    • The axis is the part of the endocrine system that controls reproductive functions – the ability to produce sperm in men and eggs in women.
    • We report that contaminants of emerging concern can also act directly on testicles by disrupting the blood-testis barrier.
    • This physical barrier protects the developing sperm from harmful substances that may be present in the bloodstream.

The legacy of fathers

    • But these epigenetic marks can affect how the genes within sperm work without changing the underlying DNA sequence.
    • Yet, these changes can be passed down from a parent to their child.
    • In both cases, epigenetic changes can be passed on to future generations who have not been directly exposed to the contaminants.
    • One category of compounds whose impact on epigenetic marks that has been extensively studied is nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as paracetamol and ibuprofen.

Taking charge

    • But it’s not easy to detect and eradicate these contaminants.
    • Current control measures include regulatory frameworks to limit the use of certain pesticides or pharmaceuticals, and develop safer alternatives.
