To evaluate the efficacy of autologous adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADMSC) therapy on pain, function and disease modification in knee osteoarthritis. 30 participants with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis were randomized into three groups. Two treatment groups received intra-articular ADMSC therapy consisting of either a single injection (100 × 10 ADMSCs) or two injections (100 × 10 ADMSCs at baseline and 6 months). The third group served as control and continued conservative management. No serious adverse events were observed. Both treatment groups receiving ADMSCs showed clinically significant pain and functional improvement at completion of follow-up at 12 months. Radiological analysis using the Magnetic Resonance Imaging Osteoarthritis Knee Score indicated modification of disease progression. Autologous ADMSC therapy appears to be a safe and effective therapy for knee osteoarthritis and may have the potential to prevent disease progression. Trial registration number: ACTRN12614000814673.

Preoperative difference between 2D and 3D planning correlates with difference between planned and achieved surgical correction in patient-specific instrumented total knee arthroplasty.

Purpose: The goals of this study were (1) to assess whether the preoperative difference between modalities and extent of deformity are associated with a higher difference between planned and achieved surgical correction and (2) if they yield a higher probability of intraoperative adjustments.
Methods: Retrospective single-centre analysis of patients undergoing patient-specific instrumented (PSI) total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Preoperative radiographic parameters were analysed on weightbearing (WB) long-leg radiographs (LLR) and nonweightbearing (NWB) computed tomography (CT).

Background: Health-related quality of life (HRQL) is an important endpoint when evaluating the effectiveness of interventions in people living with hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA). The aim of this study was to generate domains for a new OA-specific preference-based index of HRQL in people living with hip or knee OA.
Methods: The proposed HRQL index was based on a formative measurement model.

Background: The study aimed to explore whether Miya (MY), a kind of Clostridium butyricum, regulated osteoarthritis (OA) progression through adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway.
Methods: The OA rats were orally given MY daily for 4 weeks and were intramuscularly injected with AMPK inhibitor once a week for 4 weeks. Hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the histological morphology of the knee joint.

Objective: To explore the relationship between meniscus compression and the severity of knee osteoarthritis.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective case-control study included 95 patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) admitted to our hospital from April 2021 to July 2023, who were grouped into slight protrusion of meniscus group (n = 48) and severe protrusion of meniscus group (n = 47) according to the degree of meniscal extrusion. Various parameters, including Kellgren/Lawrence classification, imaging findings, cartilage damage grading, physical function assessments, and correlation analyses, were used to evaluate the relationship between meniscal extrusion and disease progression.
