Some patients have tried everything to cure their knee pain, including over-the-counter painkillers, physical therapy, and steroid injections. However, their pain persists. Osteoarthritis, which affects 867 million individuals globally and is estimated to impact one in six of all adults, is often ...
Articular cartilage defects of the knee are common among athletes where the physical demands of sport result in significant stresses on joints. Chondral defects are associated with pain and functional impairment that limit sporting participation and may progress to joint degeneration and frank arthritis....
Initially, the transplants eliminated knee locking and reduced pain and swelling in all patients. After three months, arthroscopy showed that the transplants were level with the surrounding tissue and spongy when probed, with visible borders. A second arthroscopic examination showed that in many ...
Knee cartilage injuries are common in athletes and can be difficult to treat due to poor healing potential. The use of stem cells for such conditions has emerged as a promising management option with the hope that this treatment can assist with symptom control, cartilage regeneration, and quicker...
To determine the impact of early radiographic knee osteoarthritis (ROA) and ROA risk factors on femorotibial cartilage composition, we studied baseline values and one-year change in superficial and deep cartilage T2 layers in 60 subjects (age 60.6 ± 9.6 y; BMI 27.8 ± 4.8) ...
textabstractOsteoarthritis (OA) is a frequently occurring musculoskeletal disorder, leading to joint pain and disability. Although all tissues in the joint can be affected, the focus of this thesis is on changes in bone and cartilage. Evidence from literature suggests that estrogen may have an OA...

in which osteoblasts derived, respectively, from 'sclerotic' (more severely osteoarthritic) or 'non-sclerotic' regions of the subchondral bone in human patients with knee OA were separated by a membrane from chondrocytes that were derived from the articular knee cartilage and grown in alginate beads...
