Quercetin-3-O-β-D-glucuronide attenuates osteoarthritis by inhibiting cartilage extracellular matrix degradation and inflammation.

Objective: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative joint disease characterized by cartilage damage. In order to find a safer and more effective drug to treat OA, we investigated the role of quercetin-3-O-β-D-glucuronide (Q3GA) in OA.

Methods: We used qRT-PCR and western blots to detect the effects of Q3GA on extracellular matrix (ECM) and inflammation related genes and proteins in interleukin-1β (IL-1β) induced chondrocytes.

[Correlation study on the influencing factors of semitendinosus insertion location].

Objective: To investigate the relationship between the vertical distance from semitendinosus insertion to tibial plateau (S-T) and the physical characteristics of patients, in order to provide reference for incision design to expose the semitendinosus insertion.

Methods: The patients with ligament injury who underwent primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction between January 2022 and December 2022 were selected as the research subjects. The patients' baseline data were collected, including age, gender, height, and body mass.
