Knee osteoarthritis is one of the most common joint disorders of older individuals. It is a painful and disabling disease characterized by pain, stiffness. However, in Vietnam, the number of studies on this issue is still very limited, especially those on physical function. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate physical function in 178 elderly patients with knee OA. A cross-sectional study was utilized.

While commonly utilized to fx tissue and muscles to megaprostheses to restore function and stability after tumor surgery, an attachment tube was used as a synthetic reconstruction of the knee joint’s extension mechanism after nonunion of Felix IV C fracture. Fixation of the tibial fragment, and therefore its osteointegration, is complicated after total knee arthroplasty, causing tibial tubercle dislocation.

Prediction models can be useful tools for monitoring patient status and personalizing treatment in health care. The goal of this study was to compare the relative strengths and weaknesses of 2 different approaches for predicting functional recovery after knee arthroplasty: A neighbors-based “people-like-me” (PLM) approach and a linear mixed model (LMM) approach.

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that commonly occurs in the elderly population. Treatment goals include pain relief, improvement in knee function, improved quality of life and reduction in disability. Several studies describe the use of biological therapies such as autosomal plateletrich plasma as effective and safe methods in the treatment of pain and joint dysfunction caused by knee osteoarthritis.

Bilateral regional brain oxygen saturation (rSO2) trends, reflecting intraoperative brain oxygen imbalance, could warn of brain dysfunction. Various types of cognitive impairment, such as memory decline, alterations in executive function or subjective complaints, have been described three months after surgery.

Degenerative osteoarthritis (OA) often leads to pain and stiffness of the affected joints, which may affect the physical performance and decrease the quality of life of people with degenerative knee OA. Compared to traditional exercise, tai chi is a safe exercise with slow movements which can facilitate physical functioning and psychological well being, and might be suitable for improving the physical activities of older adults with knee OA.

Sarcopenia, an age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, is correlated with adverse outcomes after some surgeries. This study examined the characteristics of sarcopenic patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and identified low muscle mass as an independent risk factor for postoperative TKA complications.

The use of Oxford uni-compartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) has rapidly increased worldwide,however,the relevance of younger patients for postoperative function after Oxford UKA remains unclear. The main purpose of our study is to clarify the efectivemess of Oxford UKA in the younger Chinese patients with anteromedial osteoarthritis (AMOA). We retrospectively enrolled 252 consecutive patients who underwent Oxford UKA for AMOA with a minimum follow-up of 5 years between March 2013 and December 2016.

Numerous patients who receive hemodialysis (HD) undergo total knee arthroplasty (TKA) due to advanced knee joint arthritis. However, there are few studies that describe the clinical outcomes and complications of TKA in HD patients. This study investigated the mid-term results of TKA in patients undergoing HD.

Exercise related leg pain (ERLP) is a common lower limb overuse injury characterised by pain located between the knee and ankle that occurs during activity. The high incidence of the condition, subsequent interference with participation in physical activity and substantial recovery time, highlights a need for effective interventions.

Knee osteoarthritis (OA) progression has been linked to increased peak external knee adduction moments (KAMs). Although some trials have attempted to reduce pain and improve function in OA by reducing KAMs with a wedged footwear insole intervention, KAM reduction has not been specifically controlled for in trial designs, potentially explaining the mixed results seen in the literature.

Risk factors have been proposed for running injuries including (a) reduced muscular strength, (b) excessive joint movements and (c) excessive joint moments in the frontal and transverse planes. To date, many running injury prevention programs have focused on a “top down” approach to strengthen the hip musculature in the attempt to reduce movements and moments at the hip, knee, and/or ankle joints.
