Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disorder that occurs in cartilage. OA the main cause of disability adults and generally characterized by pain to joints got pressured. Based on several previous studies, it known incidence osteoarthritis correlated with synovial inflammation inflammatory cytokines play an important role expansion osteoarthritis. these things, author intends conduct li...

Monosodium -iodoacetate (MIA)-induced animal model of osteoarthritis (OA) is under-utilised despite having many inherent advantages. At present, there is lack of studies that directly compare the degenerative changes induced by MIA with the surgical osteoarthritis induction method and human osteoarthritis, which would further verify a greater use of this model. Therefore, we compared the histol...

INTRODUCTION Pain is the primary outcome measurement in osteoarthritis, and its assessment is mostly based on its intensity. The management of this difficult chronic condition could be improved by using pain descriptors to improve analyses of painful sensations. This should help to define subgroups of patients based on pain phenotype, for more adapted treatment. This study draws upon patients' ...

Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by degradation of articular cartilage and joint inflammation. MicroRNAs have been proved to play an important role in the regulation of chondrogenesis. Previous study showed that microRNA-210 (miR-210) was probably associated with osteoarthritis, while the function of miR-210 in osteoarthritis still remains unknown. The aim of the present study was to invest...

Purpose: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent joint disease with an estimated prevalence of 8% in general population. Hip morphology has been marked as important risk factor for development hip OA. One types thought to increase OA pincer morphology, which overcoverage femoral head by acetabulum. The may result neck impinging against acetabulum during motion and possibly creating intra-arti...
