Relationship among radiographic ankle medial clear space, sex, and height.
The ankle medial clear space (MCS) is frequently measured to evaluate ankle stability after an injury. However, controversy exists regarding a threshold size that distinguishes a normal MCS from an abnormal MCS. A retrospective radiographic review of mortise ankle radiographs in the uninjured ankle was performed, with the goal of defining the relationship among patient height, sex, and radiogra...
متن کاملBone and cartilage characteristics in postmenopausal women with mild knee radiographic osteoarthritis and those without radiographic osteoarthritis
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the association between radiographically-assessed knee osteoarthritis and femoral neck bone characteristics in women with mild knee radiographic osteoarthritis and those without radiographic osteoarthritis. METHODS Ninety postmenopausal women (mean age [SD], 58 [4] years; height, 163 [6] cm; weight, 71 [11] kg) participated in this cross-sectional study. The severity of...
متن کاملQuantitative ultrasonic assessment for detecting microscopic cartilage damage in osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most prevalent chronic conditions. The histological cartilage changes in OA include surface erosion and irregularities, deep fissures, and alterations in the staining of the matrix. The reversibility of these chondral alterations is still under debate. It is expected that clinical and basic science studies will provide the clinician with new scientific informat...
متن کاملDoes cartilage volume measurement or radiographic osteoarthritis at baseline independently predict ten-year cartilage volume loss?
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to examine whether cartilage volume as measured by MRI and radiographic osteoarthritis (OA) at baseline predict cartilage volume loss over ten years independent of each other and other structural co-pathologies. METHODS 219 participants [mean-age 45(26-61); 57 % female] were studied at baseline and ten years. Approximately half were the adult offspring of ...
