The Relationship between HIF-2α and VEGF with Radiographic Severity in the Primary Osteoarthritic Knee
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to determine the relationship of hypoxia-inducible factor-2 (HIF-2α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) with radiographic severity in primary osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. Expression of these two factors in cartilage samples from OA knee joints was examined at mRNA and protein levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS Knee joints were examined using plain r...
متن کاملHow do pain and function vary with compartmental distribution and severity of radiographic knee osteoarthritis?
OBJECTIVES In radiographic OA (ROA) of the knee, how does radiographic severity and pattern of compartmental involvement influence symptoms? METHODS Population-based study of 819 adults aged > or =50 yrs with knee pain. The severity of knee pain and function were measured using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities scale. Three radiographic views of the knees were obtained. RESULTS ...
متن کاملGenetic contribution to radiographic severity in osteoarthritis of the knee
OBJECTIVE Knee osteoarthritis (OA) has a significant genetic component. The authors have assessed the role of three variants reported to influence risk of knee OA with p<5×10-8 in determining patellofemoral and tibiofemoral Kellgren Lawrence (K/L) grade in knee OA cases. METHODS 3474 knee OA cases with sky-line and weight-bearing antero-posterior x-rays of the knee were selected based on the ...
متن کاملManaging osteoarthritic knee pain.
Osteoarthritis is one of the most common forms of arthritis seen in primary care practice. Pain associated with this condition is the chief complaint of most patients, prompting them to seek medical attention.
