Association between radiological findings and symptoms at the patellofemoral joint in advanced knee osteoarthritis.
We investigated the association between the radiological findings and the symptoms arising from the patellofemoral joint in advanced osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. Four radiological features, joint space narrowing, osteophyte formation, translation of the patella and focal attrition were assessed in 151 consecutive osteoarthritic knees in 107 patients undergoing total knee replacement. The sy...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare muscle activation patterns and patellofemoral joint morphologies between patients with knee osteoarthritis with and without patellar malalignment. SUBJECTS The subjects were divided into 3 groups. Group A comprised 11 patients with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis without patellar malalignment. Group B comprised 14 patients with symptomatic knee o...

Background and Objective: Muscle weaknesse particularly in association with quadriceps muscle is known as a risk factor in the development and progression of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The objective of this study was to compare quadriceps muscle strength (QMS) between asymptomatic controls and KOA patients and to elucidate its relationship with knee pain and radiographic changes. Materials a...

Abstract Background and purpose: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common cause of disability in the elderly and treatment is limited to primary care. Osteoarthritis knee disease is an active process of a diseaase involving knee cartilage and characterized by damaged cartilage, decreased joint space, sclerosis and thickening of bone under the cartilage, cysts and cartilage under the new bone f...
متن کاملMuscle weakness causes joint degeneration in rabbits.
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of botulinum toxin type-A (BTX-A) induced quadriceps weakness on micro-structural changes in knee cartilage of New Zealand White (NZW) rabbits. DESIGN Fifteen rabbits were divided randomly into an experimental and a sham control group. Each group received a unilateral single quadriceps muscle injection either with saline (sh...
