Trial summary

Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the major health problems and their prevalence has increased in recent decades. It has been shown that OA causes negative effects on sleep and that these changes in sleep see to be correlated with the function and physical performance of patients with OA.

About this study

Official title: Changes of Sleep on the Sensorimotor and Cytokine in Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the major health problems and their prevalence has increased in recent decades. It has been shown that OA causes negative effects on sleep and that these changes in sleep see to be correlated with the function and physical performance of patients with OA. However, no study to date has demonstrated the effects of sleep changes in sensorimotor control and systemic inflammatory response in patients with OA. The objective of this study is to assess the influence of sleep changes in sensorimotor control (postural and neuromuscular control) and inflammatory markers (cytokines) in patients with knee OA grade I or II. Participate in this study, 60 male volunteers, aged between 40 and 65. These volunteers will be divided into four groups: Group 1 (n = 15): Osteoarthritis and good quality sleep, Group 2 (n = 15): Osteoarthritis and poor quality sleep, Group 3 (n = 15): Without good and Osteoarthritis quality of sleep, Group 4 (n = 15): Without Osteoarthritis and poor quality of sleep. All volunteers will perform a polysomnography to detect the presence or not of changes in sleep. Further testing on the isokinetic dynamometer to evaluate the acceleration time, maximum isometric torque and isokinetic concentric and eccentric maximum quadriceps muscle strength and a submaximal test to evaluate neuromuscular control. Also there will be a test on the force platform to assess the uni-and bipedal postural control, as well as respond to the WOMAC questionnaire that assesses the quality of life in patients with OA. Blood will be collected for analysis of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha, IL-1alpha, IL-1beta, IL-6, IL-8, IL-12, IL-10, TGF-beta). The significance level is 5% (p ≤ 0.05).

Read the detailed description

The experimental design of each volunteer (all groups) will be evaluated by a physician before beginning the study and posteriomente will perform a polysomnography. The day after polysomnography voluntary blood will be collected. A week after the volunteer will perform the balance test (force platform) and the test of strength (isokinetic).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. SLEEP PATTERN

    Sleep pattern assessed using Polissonography overnight in the Sleep Institute.

    In all of the protocol the patient must attend two days in the laboratory, and a night nescessaria for polysomnography, and two periods during the day to the test of balance and strength

    Measured: only one night of the evaluation

  2. Bipodal and Unipodal Balance

    The balance test will assessed by force plate, the test lasts for thirty minutes.

    Measured: only an assessment

  3. Isokinetic test of knee

    The isokinetc tets will assessed by isokinetc dynamometer - Biodex Multi-Joint System 3. The test lasts for forty minutes.

    Measured: only an assessment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Balance and muscle strength in people with Osteoathritis and Sleep, run by Universidade Federal de Sao Carlos at 1 site in Brazil.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Aug 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Andressa Mello, Msc (+551155720177, silvadressa@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

SLEEP PATTERN (time frame: only one night of the evaluation). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01422967, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Aug 2011.
