    Notes: Summary Osteoarthritis has been held to result from wear and tear. We addressed this hypothesis by analysis of anteroposterior radiographs of the knees of 51 subjects with mean age of 60 years who regularly practiced weight-bearing exercise. Radiographs were assessed for longitudinal changes in spur formation over a two-year period. The results showed a negative association between changes in weight-bearing exercise and changes in the rate of spur development in both males and females. The findings suggest that increasing repetitive impulse loading in the form of regular painless weight-bearing activity does not promote osteophytosis (or herhaps degenerative disease) in knee joints.

    Notes: Summary We report a 25-year-old woman presenting with sarcoidosis and bilateral sacroiliitis. Her sarcoidosis related symptoms (malaise, cough and dyspnoea) improved dramatically under treatment with steroids but severe back pain persisted. Only seven similar cases have been described over the last 40 years and the question of a possible association between the two diseases has been raised. However, prevalence data from the literature and the apparent lack of genetic links are better arguments for coincidence than for association.
