Mechanistic Studies on Video-guided Acupuncture Imagery Treatment of Knee Pain
OsteoarthritisKneeThe aim of this study is to investigate brain response and connectivity changes evoked by video-guided acupuncture imagery treatment (VGAIT) and verum and sham acupuncture in knee osteoarthritis patients to elucidate the underlying brain mechanisms of mind-body interaction, imagery, and acupuncture.

Characteristics of Hoffa Adipose Tissue and Intramuscular Adipose Tissue in the Quadriceps Muscle...
Osteo Arthritis KneeOver the last few years, it has been suggested that Knee Ostheoarthritis (KOA) incidence and progression could potentially be related to skeletal muscle characteristics. In particular, weakness of the quadriceps muscle would be a key determinant of KOA. However the mechanisms underpinning the influence of skeletal muscle in the pathophysiology of ostheoarthritis (OA) are poorly understood. Crosstalk between skeletal muscle and structures around and in the joint is of interest. In physical deconditioning and aging, it has been reported that skeletal muscle can be replaced by adipose tissue. Several factors involved in the development of OA but also of adipose tissue may be involved in these muscular changes. Of interest, in patients with KOA, quadriceps weakness is an ubiquitous clinical finding. Infiltration of adipose tissue in skeletal muscle has been shown to affect muscle strength and mobility and be linked to cartilage volume loss and the occurrence/progression of KOA. The main objective of this study is to compare the characteristics of the Hoffa tissus and the intamuscular fat (IMF) tissus in the quadriceps muscle in patients with gonarthrosis requiring total knee prosthesis. This is a single-centre study based on a collection of surgical waste and is categorized as Research Not Involving Human subjects.

A Qualitative Investigation of CLEAT Participants
OsteoarthritisAs the United Kingdom's National Health Service (NHS) waiting list soars above seven million people, with treatment wait times over two years, older people with chronic conditions face worsening symptoms, increased use of medications, more complicated surgeries with slower recovery, reduced quality of life, and loss of independence. As part of its plans to tackle this crisis, the NHS promotes exercise as a "miracle cure" for arresting the progress of disease and helping disease management and recovery. However, current plans promoting individual, home-based exercise, as well as on-site hospital-based programs of delivery, have met with only limited success, and face problems of decreased space, capacity, clinician time, as well as lack of knowledge and expertise with regard to effective behavior change. We have developed a community-based group exercise programme for older people with hip osteoarthritis. This community-based group exercise programme has successfully helped those with hip osteoarthritis (3.5 million over 45s in the UK) reduce pain and need for medication, as well as avoiding surgery, and has formed part of an NIHR trial examining the use of exercise and education versus standard physiotherapy care for the treatment of hip osteoarthritis. In order to better understand the mechanisms of action of this programme, the present study will examine, via focus groups interviews, the experiences of participants who have undertaken the exercise and education programme. The data generated from the focus groups will help to elucidate what "works" within the programme and will help inform future development of resources to support health professionals in providing exercise rehabilitation for older people with chronic conditions.

Home Based Hip Strengthening for Knee OA Patients
Knee OsteoarthritisIn knee osteoarthritis patients, weakness of hip abductor muscles is considered an important contributing factor leading to the progression of the disease.

A Study to Determine the Safety and Efficacy of TG-C in Subjects With Symptomatic Early Hip Osteoarthritis...
Degenerative OsteoarthritisA Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 2 Study to Determine the Efficacy, Safety, and Dosing of TG-C in Adult Subjects with Symptomatic Early Hip Osteoarthritis. TG-C will be administered to the target hip by a single ultrasound (or fluoroscopy)-guided, intra-articular injection with image capture showing correct injection of study drug into the femoroacetabular joint. Patients will be followed for 12 months for safety and efficacy.
