Low-grade systemic inflammation, but not neuroinflammation, is associated with 12-month postoperative outcome after total hip arthroplasty in patients with painful osteoarthritis

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

This study highlights the importance of systemic inflammation in osteoarthritis, and presents a possible path for better patient selection for THA in the future. Preoperative central neuroinflammation was associated with preoperative pain and disability, but not change in OHS after THA.
