The phrase "a joint damage" is not correct in standard English; it should be "joint damage" without the article "a." You can use "joint damage" when referring to damage affecting a joint in the body, often in medical or anatomical contexts.
Example: "The athlete was diagnosed with joint damage after the injury during the game."
Alternatives: "joint injury" or "damage to the joint."
A joint damage score was calculated by adding all scores, with the scores for joints in the wrists multiplied by 5, resulting in a range of 0 to 200.
This S-score method is a joint damage scoring system that captures the level of joint destruction in each patient using a more practical approach compared with other, more complex methods [ 7, 8].
For the current study, data from cohort patients were included if a blood sample was available with a joint damage assessment at year 3. Consequently, 262 patients were included.
It would be interesting to investigate the correlation of A-SAA with joint damage in an early cohort as this protein reflects not only systemic but also local inflammation [ 25].
A solder joint damage model is used to establish a connection between the strain energy density (SED) per cycle obtained from the FEA model and the actual characteristic life during thermal cycling test.

31 32 Cartilage surface integrity was scored from 0 (normal) to 5 (full-thickness degeneration), and a total joint damage score (range 0 15) was calculated as cartilage surface integrity × length of cartilage involved in thirds.
In OA, most authors have focused their studies on joint architecture and local degradation, considering pain as only a symptom, a consequence of joint damage.
Radiographic progression was also predicted by a positive IgM-RF (p0.0009), and a high baseline joint damage (p = 0.0044).
The complex nature of animal OA models does not allow for distinguishing between a response to joint damage performed to induce OA and a pure mechanotransductive response.
Chronic arthritis is an osteodestructive process, which leads to an accumulation of joint damage over time and prevents a restitutio ad integrum, as observed in spurious forms of arthritis.
