Filter by:The study aim to evaluate safety of exosomes (sEVs) from allogeneic mesenchymal stromal cells delivered by an intra-articular injection in the knee of patients with mild to moderate symptomatic osteoarthritis. The sEVs will be produced in a GMP-facility. The investigators expect to enroll 12 patients in this phase 1 trial open label dose-escalation pilot and the follow-up will be up to 12 months.
The appropriate form and dosing of vitamin K to benefit relevant outcomes in knee osteoarthritis (OA) are not known. In intervention studies for conditions other than knee OA (e.g., prevention of cardiovascular disease), the most commonly used forms and doses include phylloquinone (vitamin K1; 1000µg or 500µg daily) or menaquinone-7 (MK-7 or vitamin K2; 360µg daily). However, whether these doses are adequate to increase vitamin K to levels that ameliorate risk of adverse OA outcomes is not known. Furthermore, although some studies suggest enhanced bioavailability of MK-7 over vitamin K1, as well as extra-hepatic effects, whether this is relevant for an older population with knee OA is not known, The overall goal of this pilot randomized clinical trial (RCT) is to test different subtypes and doses of vitamin K supplementation in older adults with knee OA and to measure changes in relevant biochemical measures.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy of single dose and double dose of dexamethasone after primary total knee replacement. The main question[s] it aims to answer [is/are]: Does 24 hours-interval of double dose of dexamethasone have better analgesic effect than single dose and 12 hours interval of double dose of dexamethasone after primary total joint replacement? Researchers will compare double dose of dexamethasone group to see if [insert effects]. Participants will [describe the main tasks participants will be asked to do, interventions they'll be given and use bullets if it is more than 2 items].
The purpose of this study is to develop an exercise treatment program for knee osteoarthritis that works well for people with memory problems. This study will include two parts. Participants can choose to participate in either or both parts. In Part 1 (not a clinical trial) - The investigators are inviting the following people to participate in an interview: 1. Individuals aged 60 years or older who do not live in a nursing home and have both memory issues and knee pain. 2. Care partners of people with knee pain and memory issues. A care partner can be a family member or friend who helps regularly. 3. Clinicians (exercise physiologists or rehabilitation therapists like physical and occupational therapists) who have worked with older adults with memory issues and knee pain. The goal of these interviews is to learn from the experiences of people with memory issues and knee pain and those who care for them. From these interviews, the investigators hope to design a non-drug, tailored physical activity program that will be interesting and helpful in managing knee pain for older adults with memory problems. For people with memory problems and knee pain and their care partners: The investigators will ask some questions to determine eligibility to participate in the study. Those who qualify for the study will be invited to participate in an interview that could be completed online or in person (Philadelphia, PA). The interview could last up to 90 minutes (1 and a half hours) and can be completed as one or multiple sessions. For clinicians: Participants will engage in a 90-minute focus group with other clinicians where lunch will be served if in person. Those participating in an online focus group will receive a gift card equal to the value of lunch. In Part 2 (a clinical trial) - The program developed in Part 1 will be tested. The program will be physical activity-based. Specific program details for part 2 will be provided as they emerge. Participants can choose to sign up for either or both parts. Signing up for Part 1 does not mean participants have to sign up for Part 2. Please contact us for any questions.
The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of long-duration low intensity therapeutic ultrasound (LITUS) to alleviate knee Osteoarthritis pain over a 24-week period. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the analgesic effect of LITUS in subjects suffering from knee Osteoarthritis pain. Secondary objectives are to assess the ability of LITUS to improve joint function.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the effect of bioceramic implants on the repair of human bone defects, and to explore the application of bioceramic materials in bone defects, bone implantation, and bone fusion. The surface microstructure of β-tricalcium phosphate bioceramic implants can be effectively controlled to guide the regeneration of bones, promote the restoration of bones, accelerate the speed of recovery, and improve bone quality, which is of great clinical and social significance.
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic, painful disease associated with considerable morbidity, costs and disability. It is estimated that over a third of people aged over 60 have radiographic knee OA2 and over 50% of these with knee OA will go on to have a total knee replacement in their lifetime. At present there are no licensed treatments that alter disease progress and management is primarily concerned with symptom control to retain or improve joint function, although a trial of strontium ranelate showed promising results.
Randomized controlled trial Targeted patients who come to receive treatment for osteoarthritis that meets the research indications will be assigned to a random group by the box of 4 randomization method, with a sequence that is randomly generated by a computer. The groups are divided into two groups: Group 1: Patients who have taken 480 mg of hydrolyzed collagen and 20 mg of undenatured type II collagen Group 2: Control patients will take placebo Primary outcome : Pain level
This is a multi-centre, single cohort trial of patients undergoing cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty with the Attune Cementless, Fixed Bearing, Cruciate Retaining TKA System.
The goal of this observational study is to assess Prakriti & Vikriti in patients visiting OPD of IIISM department, SRM hospital. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - To evaluate Prakriti & Vikriti of patients using Prakriti & Vikriti questionnaire and with digital devices - To correlate the determined Prakriti and Vikriti with the doctor's assessment along with clinical and biochemical parameters Participants will be advised to follow the treating physician's advice on medicines
