Influence of Adipocytokines in Osteoarthritis

OsteoarthritisKnee2 more

Adipocytokines play an important role in joint inflammation in patients with knee osteoarthritis as measured by ultrasound and high sensitivity protein-C reactive. Adipocytokines could be the link between osteoarthritis and cardiovascular risk factors more prevalent in these patients.

Influence of Oxidative Dysbalance on Secondary Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis

The important role of mechanical joint stress for the insert and progress of osteoarthritis (OA) is supported by recent studies. The degeneration of joint cartilage is caused either by unphysiological load of a healthy joint or physiological load of a damaged joint. The exact mechanisms leading from increased weight bearing and overuse to cartilage degeneration are mostly unknown. The hypothesis of the study is that parameters of oxidative stress in the joint synovial space reflect damages possibly leading to OA. These parameters correlate with parameters of oxidative stress in the peripheral blood. Aim of the study is the identification of such non- invasive obtainable biomarkers which represent the degenerative and regenerative changes in joint.

The Relationship Between Physical Activity and Radiographic Osteoarthritis Worsening

OsteoarthritisKnee

Wuchuan Osteoarthritis Study is a population-based longitudinal study of natural history of knee osteoarthritis and its risk factors. At baseline and follow-up visits, IPA-Q questionnaire and a radiographs at tibiofemoral (TF) joints will be taken in order to assess the relationship between physical activity and radiographic osteoarthritis worsening.

PET MRI for Evaluation of Knee Osteoarthritis in Patients With Bilateral Knee OA

Knee Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis (Osteoarthritis) of the knee is a high prevalence in the population of people aged 60 years and over, when in some cases does not cause any discomfort or pain, and therefore not diagnosed. In addition, Radio graphic findings of the knee not fully compatible with the patient's symptoms, which resulted in errors in the interpretation and diagnosis. In this study, patients who suffer from two knees or unilateral pain, will take part. Participants will undergo a clinical examination, including evaluation of symptoms by an orthopedist and an X-ray imaging, which are part of the currently accepted medical diagnosis. Patients will perform PET-MRI test in order to assess whether PET MRI is a more efficient tool for active knee osteoarthritis diagnosis.

Cognition, Pain and Wellbeing

Knee OsteoarthritisKnee Pain Chronic1 more

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and for 4 in 10 people pain from OA is not adequately controlled. The pain experience of people suffering from chronic pain largely depends on their individual perception of pain and on brain functions, in particular what is called "cognitive" functions. Cognitive functions include memory, attention, organisation and planning, task initiation, regulation of emotions and reflection of oneself and are important for everyday tasks, such as following a conversation or a story in a book or on TV, learning new things, remembering old and new information and making decisions. Good cognition predicts the risk of developing chronic pain after a painful event, such as surgery. Chronic pain patients report numerous cognitive impairments, with attention and memory being the two most prominent that can persist even after the original cause of pain has been treated. Little evidence exists regarding the nature and magnitude of these deficits and their underlying brain and psychological mechanisms in chronic knee OA. The investigators want to understand which cognitive functions and to what extent are associated with pain in patients with knee OA.

Study on the Rehabilitation Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis Based on ICF

Knee Osteoarthritis

To solve the existing Knee osteoarthritis;KOA) clinical norms and guidelines have low operability, Disconnection between treatment plan and specific evaluation results, difficulty in achieving individualized intervention and other problems, on the one hand, we need to develop Chinese expert consensus or clinical path based on evidence-based medicine to adapt to China's national conditions, on the other hand, is more important in The KOA clinical process introduces a set of tools to translate evidence-based medicine evidence into specific, actionable treatments, Thus, a more flexible, more comprehensive and three-dimensional, adaptable, targeted, more conducive to the promotion of the individual integration KOA rehabilitation intervention program.

Knee OsteoarthritisTotal Knee Arthroplasty1 more

The purpose of the study is to acquire kinematic in vivo fluoroscopy data from subjects who were implanted with Stryker Posterior Cruciate Retaining (PCR) , Stryker Posterior Stabilized (PS), Zimmer PCR, and Zimmer PS Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKAs). Our lab has previously collected data for the Smith & Nephew PCR, bi-cruciate retaining (BCR), and bi-cruciate stabilized (BCS) TKA.

Synovial Fluid Biomarkers Pre and Post Hymovis Knee Injection

Knee Osteoarthritis

This NJH Investigator Initiated Study funded by Fidia will prospectively perform 2 ultrasound (US) guided knee aspirations in patients with knee osteoarthritis using a pneumatic compressive device (KneeTap ™) at baseline and at 3 months following 2 Hymovis® injections. Synovial fluid catabolic and anabolic proteins will be compared to those values in the peripheral blood and correlated with clinical outcome measurements at 3 ,6 and 12 months compared to baseline values; WOMAC, SF 36, visual analog pain scale, 6 minute walking distance and SF volumes quantitated by US.
