Article Synopsis
  • The study reviews knee donor-site complications following autologous osteochondral mosaicplasty, focusing on the frequency and types of morbidity experienced by patients.
  • A comprehensive literature search identified 13 studies, involving 661 patients, revealing an overall donor-site morbidity rate of 8.6%, predominantly knee pain at 4.2%.
  • No significant relationship was found between the number or size of transplanted osteochondral columns and the incidence of donor-site complications, indicating the need to inform patients about potential risks.

Objective: To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy of arthroscopy and traditional incision in the treatment of tibial avulsion fracture of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).

Methods: From July 2010 to July 2020, clinical comparative trial about arthroscopy and traditional incision in the treatment of ACL tibial avulsion fracture was conducted by using computer-based databases, including Embase, Pubmed, Central, Cinahl, PQDT, CNKI, Weipu, Wanfang, Cochrane Library, CBM. Literature screening and data extraction were carried out according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and the quality of the included literature was evaluated by improved Jadad score and Ottawa Newcastle scale (NOS).

Objective: To perform a bibliometric analysis of research on articular cartilage repair published in Chinese and English over the past decade. Fundamental and clinical research topics of high interest were further comparatively analyzed.

Methods: Relevant studies published from 1 January 2009 to 31 December 2018 (10 years) were retrieved from the Wanfang database (Chinese articles) and six databases, including MEDLINE, WOS, INSPEC, SCIELO, KJD, and RSCI on the website "Web of Science" (English articles), using key words: "articular cartilage" AND "injury" AND "repair".

Pericellular matrix (PCM) is a narrow tissue region surrounding chondrocytes, which "chondron" with its enclosed cells. A number of studies suggested that PCM is rich in proteoglycans, collagen and fibronectin, and plays an important role in regulating microenvironment of chondrocytes. Direct measures of PCM properties through micropipette aspiration technique showed that PCM was different from mechanical property of chondrocytes and nature extracellular matrix.

Background: The mechanical microenvironment of the chondrocytes plays an important role in cartilage homeostasis and in the health of the joint. The pericellular matrix, cellular membrane of the chondrocytes, and their cytoskeletal structures are key elements in the mechanical environment. The aims of this study are to measure the viscoelastic properties of isolated chondrons and chondrocytes from rabbit knee cartilage using micropipette aspiration and to determine the effect of aging on these properties.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between body mass index and lower limb alignment of patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Methods: From July 2008 to June 2010, 78 patients who suffered from severe knee osteoarthritis were treated with total knee replacement, including 17 males and 61 females, ranging from 41 to 85 years old, with an average age of 68.1 years.

Objective: To investigate the influence of tubulin disassembly on the in vitro metabolism of articular chondrocytes.

Methods: Eight New Zealand rabbits aged 2 months were sacrificed by air embolism. The full-thickness cartilages were harvested from both knees under sterile conditions.
