Prominent publications by Matthew H Liang
Associations of Weight Gain From Early to Middle Adulthood With Major Health Outcomes Later in Life
[ PUBLICATION ]
Importance: Data describing the effects of weight gain across adulthood on overall health are important for weight control.
Objective: To examine the association of weight gain from early to middle adulthood with health outcomes later in life.
Design, Setting, and Participants: Cohort analysis of US women from the Nurses' Health Study (1976-June 30, 2012) and US men from the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study (1986-January 31, 2012) who recalled weight during early adulthood (at age of ...

Sensitivity and positive predictive value of medicare part B physician claims for rheumatologic diagnoses and procedures
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: To examine the sensitivity and positive predictive value of Medicare physician claims for select rheumatic conditions managed in rheumatology specialty practices.
METHODS: Eight rheumatologists in 3 states abstracted 378 patient office records to obtain information on diagnosis and office procedures. The Medicare Part B physician claims for these patient visits were obtained from the Health Care Financing Administration. The sensitivity of the claims data for a specific ...

Outcomes of total hip and knee replacement: Preoperative functional status predicts outcomes at six months after surgery
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether patients with knee or hip osteoarthritis (OA) who have worse physical function preoperatively achieve a postoperative status that is similar to that of patients with better preoperative function.
METHODS: This study surveyed an observational cohort of 379 consecutive patients with definite OA who were without other inflammatory joint diseases and were undergoing either total hip or knee replacement in a US (Boston) and a Canadian (Montreal) referral ...

Lumbar Laminectomy Alone or With Instrumented or Noninstrumented Arthrodesis in Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
[ PUBLICATION ]
DESIGN: A prospective, multicenter observational study.
OBJECTIVES: 1) Identify correlates of the decision to perform arthrodesis in patients undergoing laminectomy for lumbar spinal stenosis. 2) Compare symptoms, walking capacity, and satisfaction 6 and 24 months after laminectomy alone and laminectomy with noninstrumented and with instrumented arthrodesis.
BACKGROUND DATA: Few prospective studies have compared outcomes of laminectomy alone or laminectomy with noninstrumented or with ...

BACKGROUND: Silicone breast implants have been linked to a variety of illnesses, the most controversial of which are connective-tissue diseases and symptoms. To study this relation, we analyzed data from 14 years of follow-up of the Nurses' Health Study cohort.
METHODS: Women who were free from connective-tissue disease in June 1976 were followed through May 31, 1990, before there was widespread media coverage of the possible association of breast implants and connective-tissue diseases. ...

The utility of flow mediated dilation (FMD) a measure of endothelial function is limited by operator dependence. Pulse amplitude tonometry (PAT) is a novel, less operator-dependent technique to assess endothelial function. This study compares PAT to FMD in SLE and controls. Thirty women with SLE and 31 controls were enrolled. Medications, cardiovascular disease and risk factors, SLE activity (SLAM-R) and damage (SLICC-DI) were recorded. FMD and PAT were performed simultaneously. ...

Total hip replacement due to osteoarthritis: the importance of age, obesity, and other modifiable risk factors
[ PUBLICATION ]
We studied whether several modifiable factors were associated with the risk of total hip replacement due to hip osteoarthritis among women.We identified 568 women from the Nurses' Health Study who reported total hip replacement due to primary hip osteoarthritis on questionnaires from 1990 to 1996, using a validated algorithm. The relation of potential risk factors, such as age, body mass index, physical activity, smoking, alcohol intake, and hormone use, to hip replacement was assessed ...

Estimates of the prevalence of arthritis and other rheumatic conditions in the United States: Part I
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: To provide a single source for the best available estimates of the US prevalence of and number of individuals affected by arthritis overall, rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile arthritis, the spondylarthritides, systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, and Sjögren's syndrome. A companion article (part II) addresses additional conditions.
METHODS: The National Arthritis Data Workgroup reviewed published analyses from available national surveys, such as the National Health ...

The relationship of socioeconomic status, race, and modifiable risk factors to outcomes in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: To study the relationship of race, socioeconomic status (SES), clinical factors, and psychosocial factors to outcomes in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
METHODS: A retrospective cohort was assembled, comprising 200 patients with SLE from 5 centers. This cohort was balanced in terms of race and SES. Patients provided information on socioeconomic factors, access to health care, nutrition, self-efficacy for disease management, health locus of control, social ...

Timing of total joint replacement affects clinical outcomes among patients with osteoarthritis of the hip or knee
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: To determine the predictors of outcome in patients with osteoarthritis 2 years after receiving total hip or knee replacement.
METHODS: A prospective cohort study of 222 osteoarthritis patients undergoing total hip or knee replacement in Boston and Montreal was done. Their postoperative outcomes at 6 months were previously reported. This followup reports on the outcomes after 2 years among the 165 patients (74%) who remained. The subjects were divided into 2 groups according to ...
