Six-month Performance of Meniscal Wall Infiltration Under Ultrasound to Treat Stable Degenerative...

OsteoarthritisKnee

The main hypothesis of the study is that in situ infiltration of the meniscal lesion would provide patients with lasting and greater relief than intra-articular infiltration. A statistically significant difference would be if the Lysholm score of the meniscal wall group at 3 months is 9.5 points higher than that of the intra-articular infiltration group. The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of meniscal wall infiltration under ultrasound in the treatment of stable degenerative meniscal lesions versus intra-articular infiltration (Gold standard) at 3 months by Lysholm's algo-functional score.

Osteo Arthritis KneeChronic Pain

Knee osteoarthritis has a very high prevalence in the population over 50 years of age. Patients with osteoarthritis often suffer from chronic pain that becomes disabling, affecting both quality of life and mental and physical health. This pathology has also been linked to maladaptive plasticity in the brain, which can contribute to chronic pain. Therapies with neuromodulatory approaches, such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and peripheral electrical stimulation (TENS), have been used therapeutically to counteract the maladaptive plasticity of the brain. Transcranial therapy and TENS can be a possible effective treatment in the rehabilitation services of the health system for the improvement of chronic pain and quality of life in different pathologies, such as chronic low back pain, fibromyalgia or knee and hip osteoarthritis.

To Investigate the Effect of PEMF for Knee OA Patients

Knee Osteoarthritis

Health care costs are increasing alarmingly, which will impose an overwhelming economic burden to an aging society like that of Hong Kong. For example, degenerative musculoskeletal disorders such as osteoarthritis (OA) present a grand challenge with its high prevalence (>40% in the elderly suffered from knee OA). Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, and around 2 million population worldwide suffer from this disorder. OA is a debilitating progressive disease with typical pathological progress such as cartilage degeneration, inflammation, joint width narrowing and developing osteophytes. The main system of knee OA is acute pain leading to loss of mobility. There is no effective treatment to cure or stop the progression of OA. For now, the main method is to alleviate the pain and symptoms, including control weight, exercise, physical treatment and intake of NSAIDs/ paracetamol. Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) treatment has shown to enhance cell activity related to tissue healing, delay bone and cartilage degeneration and give beneficial effects such as relief in pain, anti-inflammation and reduce swelling. In clinic, PEMF treatment has been reported to be safe, and has been proved to reduce the usage of NSAIDs and pain in patients with knee OA. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of PEMF therapy on for patients with knee OA, including delay the degeneration of articular cartilage, restore the subchondral bone, reduce knee pain and symptoms as well as improve the muscle strength and functions, and even improving the quality of life. Based on the aim of this study, older adult patients (aged 50 or above) with a unilateral knee OA with Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grade 2-3 by X-ray, visual analogue scale (VAS) >4, no acute knee injuries and muscle strain in past 3 months, and no alleviation of symptoms after ≥ 3 months of nonsurgical treatment. To estimate the improvement of patients the following assessments will be performed, including patient-reported outcomes, muscle strength and physical function assessments, serum evaluation, and imaging examination.

Safety and Pharmacodynamics of GNSC-001 Intra-articular Injection for Knee Osteoarthritis

OsteoarthritisKnee2 more

The goal of this clinical study is to determine if a single injection of 1 or more dose levels of adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy (GNSC-001) is safe and tolerated compared to placebo in participants with painful osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee.

Knee Osteotomy Associated With Allograft Meniscus Transplantation

MalalignmentBone2 more

This is a prospective randomized double-blind controlled clinical trial with parallel arms and 1:1 allocation. The main objective of the BIOMAT project is to demonstrate, through an RCT, whether the combined approach by knee osteotomy and MAT can provide clinical improvement over knee osteotomy alone for the treatment of patients with monocompartmental knee OA associated with meniscal insufficiency and lower extremity malalignment. Secondary objectives are to demonstrate whether the addition of MAT to knee osteotomy in patients with monocompartmental OA can improve biomechanical parameters and whether this treatment has protective effects on the joint environment and cartilage degeneration.
