In the late 1980s, Japan's strong economic performance put it on a the verge of becoming a major player in regional and global affairs. But nearly a decade of economic stagnation, a mounting of bad debts, and a continuing stream of scandals have tarnished the country's distinctive economic model. At the turn of the millennium, the Japanese economy remained mired in a pattern of stagnation. As this disappointing condition dragged on, the government pursued policies to restore economic health. Yet Japan has been slow to embrace the systemic reform on which a robust economic recovery depends. In Arthritic Japan, Edward J. Lincoln examines the causes and implications of this weak response. Concluding that Japan is unlikely to pursue the vigorous reform necessary for economic growth, Lincoln warns of serious consequences: a stumbling economy bedeviled by recession and financial crisis, eroding leadership in economic and security issues, a continued defensive trade posture, and a disgruntled population that could turn a more nationalistic stance in foreign policy.

Background and Aims: Osteoarthritis (OA) causes pain and disability, limiting the performance of various activities of daily living. Pharmacological management of OA focuses on a reduction of symptoms including pain and functional decline. The aim of this study is to understand how physicians in Japan are currently treating OA. Methods: Data were drawn from the Adelphi OA Disease Specific Programme (2017-18), a point-in-time study of physicians and their patients in Japan. OA severity was assessed by physicians, who categorised patients as mild, moderate or severe. Physicians provided details on prescribed OA therapy and rated their satisfaction with therapy from very satisfied to very dissatisfied. Descriptive statistics were reported.Results: The study included 393 patients: 41% had mild (n=160), 50% moderate (n=196) and 9% severe OA (n=37). Overall, 81% of patients were treated with a drug for their OA (74% of mild; 85% of moderate; 89% of severe patients). NSAIDs (63%) and hyaluronic acid for intra-articular injection (35%) were most frequently used. A small proportion of patients received an opioid (13%). The mean number of pharmacologic drugs increased (1.0 for mild, 1.3 for moderate and 1.4 for severe) and physician satisfaction decreased (88% for mild; 71% for moderate; 51% for severe) with increasing OA severity.Conclusions: High use of NSAIDs and/or hyaluronic acid suggests a preference for conservative pharmacologic treatment of OA in Japan. However, satisfaction levels suggest that physicians are looking for better efficacy and safety to treat patients as their severity worsens.

A debilitating disease of pain, inflammation, and loss of mobility and quality of life, arthritis takes victims of all ages, from young children to seniors. Usually chronic, the broad term arthritis refers to nearly 100 distinct manifestations, each with their own etiology, pathophysiology, and treatment. With medical research getting so much attention, it is no wonder there have been recent leaps in the investigation into arthritis treatment. It is important to have a high quality, trusted compendium to capture the breadth and depth of new information in the field. Covering cutting-edge information on arthritic diseases and their treatment, Arthritis: Pathophysiology, Prevention, and Therapeutics details the intricacies of arthritis and inflammatory responses, their consequences, their economic burden, and their impact on society. Offering a mechanistic approach to pathophysiology and treatment, the book begins with an overview of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and psoriatic arthritis. Section Two highlights the consequences of arthritis and the link between arthritis and obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, as well as other related disabilities. The third section focuses on antiarthritic drugs, including an overview and update on antiarthritic drug development by Dr. Micheal G. Lyon from Stanford University School of Medicine, and a chapter on nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Other chapters cover biologics in arthritis treatment, topical applications, and the use of hyaluronan and hyaluronic acid in osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Sections Four and Five are devoted to natural therapeutic and orthopedic interventions such as glucosamine and chondroitin, MSM, capsaicin, shark cartilage, and fish oil, while Section Six discusses nonpharmacological approaches including physical exercise and acupuncture. The final section provides a commentary on the correlation between arthritis and the aging society and how exercise, nutrition, and preventative strategies can help the world and mankind in promoting human health.
