Filter by:The study is a multicentered, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study conducted on the unilateral knee of 120 patients. The study compares the effectiveness of an injection of a mesenchymal stem cell preparation from autologous bone marrow aspirate (BMA) to a corticosteroid control for knee osteoarthritis. WOMAC, VAS pain scores, and MRI will be used for assessment. The study will be conducted at 3 sites in the United States.
This study aime to investigate the effects of balance and proprioception exercises using two different methods (classical balance training and Balance System™ SD) in addition to strengthening exercises on dynamic balance, pain, functional status and quality of life in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) is also known as a knee replacement. It is one of the most common orthopaedic (bone) surgeries performed and is usually very successful, but some people who have had a knee replacement feel pain that lasts for at least 3 months after surgery and thus continue to take pain control/ analgesic (opioids) medication. Opiates are medications like morphine. Pain post-surgery can make it difficult to recover and return to daily activities. A better control of pain before the surgery, can help people feel less pain, recover faster, and use less opioids after surgery. Cryoneurolysis means freezing the nerves that can cause pain. It uses very low temperatures in a specific body part (e.g., nerves to the knee) to freeze the pain nerves and therefore reduce the pain. When applied before the surgery it might help with postoperative pain after knee replacement. This study will evaluate Iovera, a cryoneurolysis handheld device commercially available in Canada that delivers freezing cold to a target nerve by using nitrous oxide. Cryoneurolysis can relieve pain and symptoms associated with osteoarthritis of the knee for up to 90 days.
This is a Randomized Clinical Trial to compare two interventions for reducing knee pain and improving knee function of patients with knee osteoarthritis. Sixty participants will be randomly allocated to one of the intervention groups, either a knee educational program or a combination of knee educational program and medical interventions. Participants will be assessed primarily on function and pain, as well as other secondary outcomes at baseline, at the end of the interventions, and three months after the end of the interventions.
Implementing Group Physical Therapy (PT) for Veterans with Knee Osteoarthritis (OA): Function QUERI 2.0 (Group PT) aims to implement, evaluate and sustain Group PT in 16 VA sites using a type III effectiveness-implementation hybrid design framework, which will compare implementation strategies while also gathering information about the clinical intervention and related outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the neuromuscular and perceptual responses, pain intensity and performance in patients with severe knee osteoarthritis in a preoperative setting with low-load resistance training with a self-regulated mathematical dual-task.
In this phase II Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT), impacts of a single Intra-articular injection of autologous adipose tissue derive total-stromal-cells (TOST) on knee pain, physical function, stiffness, and cartilage thickness assessed and compared changes before and after intervention. Individuals with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) diagnosed by using the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria for Osteoarthritis knee were included in the study. Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) radiological scores were used to define radiological changes and high-frequency musculoskeletal ultrasonogram (MSUS) was used to measure cartilage thickness.
The purpose of this study is to cast light on the highly complex etiology and cellular landscape of hip osteoarthritis by utilising single-cell and spatial transcriptomics.
The aim of this study is to determine the accuracy of long leg standing X-rays with respect to coronal alignment of the knee.
Objective: To determine the efficacy of natural senolytic agents and NLRP3 Inflammasome inhibitors for reducing knee symptoms and effusion-synovitis in patients with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis and knee effusion-synovitis. Design: Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Setting: Single-center study with outpatients from university hospital , Faculty of Medicine , Assiut, Egypt . Participants: 60 participants with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis and ultrasonography-defined effusion-synovitis. Randomized to 3 arms ( natural Senolytic agents alone, natural senolytic plus natural NLRP3 Inflammasome inhibitors and placebo) Intervention: The senolytic agents act by Hit-and-run strategy therefore, intermittent dosing regimens will be applied. 1250 mg/day quercetin + 1000mg/day Fisetin for 3 consecutive days every 3 weeks (n = 20), quercetin + Fisetin for 3 consecutive days followed by 100mg/day glycyrrhizin for one week every 3 weeks (n=20) or matched placebo (n = 20) over 15 weeks Measurements: . The primary outcome measures were change in knee pain (assessed by visual analogue scale VAS) and effusion-synovitis volume on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Secondary outcomes are listed as follows: knee pain, function, and stiffness assessed by the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), OARSI-OMERACT (Outcome Measures in Rheumatology Clinical trials- Osteoarthritis Research Society International) responders to treatment, cartilage compositional change assessed by cartilage T2 relaxation time (ms), pain medication usage, change in quality of life (Assessment of Quality of Life (AQoL-4D) questionnaire),
