Arthrofibrosis of the knee joint is a severe complication following trauma and surgical procedures, which often results in long-term impairment of joint function. Early mobilization techniques and ane...
The high prevalence of debilitating joint diseases like osteoarthritis (OA) poses a high socioeconomic burden. Currently, the available drugs that target joint disorders are mostly palliative. The unm...
The objective of this study was to determine the level of disease severity in a pilot cohort of temporomandibular joints (TMJs) and compare them to the pathology findings previously characterized in c...
Thirty-one intact TMJs from 17 cadaveric donors were harvested and arthritic lesioning seen in the knee joint was investigated on the condyle and the fossa of the TMJ. Prevalence of gross alterations ...
The mandibular fossa demonstrated an increase in disease severity compared to the mandibular condyle in a mixed sex donor pool (...
This study demonstrates that gross signs of OA in the TMJs of cadavers are comparable to pathology found in the knee. The mandibular fossa appears to be the site of more profound disease, implying tra...
Clinical ultrasonography (US) by infectiologists has only recently been developing, and as now there is little literature on the subject. Our study focuses on the conditions and diagnostic performance...
A retrospective study carried out between June 1st 2019 and March 31st 2021 in the University Hospital of Bordeaux, South-Western France. We measured US sensitivity (Se), specificity (Sp), positive pr...
Fifty-four patients underwent US by an infectiologist in an infectious disease ward, including 11 (20.4%) for native joint and 43 (79.6%) for prosthetic joint. Joint effusion and/or periarticular coll...
These results suggest that US by infectiologists effectively diagnoses osteoarticular infections (OAIs). This approach has many applications in infectiology routines. Consequently, it would be interes...
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a chronic disease that seriously endangers the health of the elderly. Choosing appropriate surgery for knee osteoarthritis patients is especially important....
To investigate the safety and efficacy of unicondylar knee prosthesis treatment for unicompartmental osteoarthritis of the knee....
One hundred patients with unicondylar osteoarthritis of the knee treated in our hospital from June 2019 to June 2021 were selected as retrospective study subjects and were divided into 50 cases each i...
The AKS score and knee flexion angle score of the observation group were higher than those of the comparison group after surgery. However, the tibial angle orthopedic score of the observation group wa...
The clinical efficacy of unicondylar knee prosthesis replacement for osteoarthritis of the knee is better than that of unicondylar knee arthroplasty (UKA) treatment....
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common disease based on degenerative pathological changes. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an effective treatment for end-stage of KOA. However, only volume adaptation ...
From October 2015 to June 2019, patients who underwent primary unilateral TKA were enrolled in this prospective cohort study with the same brand of knee prostheses. General data were collected from pa...
In total, 210 patients were eventually included in observation. All patients underwent postoperative follow-up for no less than two years. Multiple regression analysis showed that the course of the di...
All Patients underwent TKA had varying degrees of increased knee weight. The increased weight was 298.98 ± 63.77 g. Patients' body weight, K-L staging, and disease duration are important factors that ...
No previous studies have explored the effect of folate deficiency on the severity of osteoarthritis (OA). Therefore, we investigated the relationship between folate level and features on knee and hand...
Among 9,260 subjects enrolled in the Dong-gu study, 2,489 who had knee and hand joint radiographs were included. Of these, subjects with a history of amputation or total knee replacement were excluded...
A total of 2,322 subjects were recruited. After adjusting for confounders, participants with folate deficiency (<4 ng/mL) had higher total (p<0.001), osteophyte (p<0.001), joint space narrowing (p=0.0...
Folate deficiency is associated with increased radiographic severity of OA in knee joints, but not in hand joints. Further studies are needed to explore the differential effects of folate on the sever...
Patients with knee osteoarthritis show low stair climbing ability, but a diagnosis of stair performance time is not enough to identify the early stages of knee osteoarthritis. Therefore, we developed ...
Subjective knee stiffness is a common symptom in patients with knee osteoarthritis treated conservatively. However, the influencing factors or effects of knee joint stiffness are unknown. The aim of t...
The MEDLINE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, EMBASE, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Web of Science, and PEDro databases were searched in November 2021. Prosp...
Twenty out of 1943 screened articles were included in this systematic review. Eighteen and two studies were rated as having acceptable and low quality, respectively. All the included studies measured ...
Subjective knee stiffness may be associated with the prognosis after total knee arthroplasty and degenerative changes in the knee joint. Early detection and treatment of knee stiffness could lead to a...
➤ Joint alignment, meniscal status, and ligament stability are codependent factors involved in knee joint preservation, and any injury or imbalance can impact the knee articular cartilage status and c...
