About this study

Official title: First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical Universtiy

Studies have suggested that Obese patients with metabolic syndrome(MetS)were correlated with knee joint degeneration and osteoarthritis. However, no studies demonstrate the relationship between obese patients with metabolic syndrome and degenerate meniscus lesions and its knee function.The aim is to detect the correlation between obese patients with metabolic syndrome and degenerate meniscus injuries.

Read the detailed description

Obese patients with metabolic syndrome(MetS)were correlated with knee joint degeneration and osteoarthritis. However, no studies demonstrate the relationship between patients with metabolic syndrome and degenerate meniscus lesions or knee function. Participants were recruited from First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University. 100 BMI<24 people without Metabolic syndrome volunteers aged between 35-70 years old and 80 Metabolic syndrome patients with BMI>27 were included in the study. Obese patients with MetS were assessed knee function and degenerate meniscus tears verified by magnetic resonance imaging. And patients with a mild or no osteoarthritis with Kellgren and Lawrence grade<2 verified by X ray. We tested the relationship between metabolic syndrome and degenerate meniscus lesions. Obese patients with MetS and volunteers were detected by Mcmurry's test and MRI image to measure degeneration grade of meniscus tears. Number of MetS components were accounted and the knee function KOOS, IKDC score or degenerate meniscus tears were analyzed.

What is being measured

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

  1. the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) total

    The Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) holds five subscales including: Pain (9 items); other Symptoms (7 items); Activities of Daily Living (ADL, 17 items); Sport and Recreation function (Sport/Rec, 5 items); and knee-related Quality of Life (QoL, 4 items). Each subscale is scored separately from zero (extreme knee problems) to 100 (no knee problems).

    Measured: up to 12 month

  2. The International Knee Documentation Committee Subjective Knee Evaluation Form (IKDC) score

    The International Knee Documentation Committee Subjective Knee Evaluation Form (IKDC) score to determine the meniscus function. The IKDC is a questionnaire that has high reliability and validity for patients with a meniscal tear[36, 37] [38]. The questionnaire contains 18 items (7 items for symptoms, 1 item for sport activity, 9 items for daily activities, and 1 item for current knee function.) The total score is transformed to a value on a scale of 0 to 100, with 100 representing the highest knee function and 0 is the worst.

    Measured: up to 12 month

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. KOOS Pain subscale

    Pain including 9 items,The minimum value is 0 and maximum values subscale is 100, the scored separately from zero (extreme knee problems) to 100 (no knee problems)

    Measured: up to 12 month

  2. Symptoms subscale

    Symptoms including 7 items,The minimum value is 0 and maximum values subscale is 100. Each subscale is scored separately from zero (extreme knee problems) to 100 (no knee problems)

    Measured: up to 12 month

  3. Activities of Daily Living subscale

    Activities of Daily Living including 17 items,The minimum value is 0 and maximum values subscale is100. Each subscale is scored separately from zero (extreme knee problems) to 100 (no knee problems).

    Measured: up to 12 month

  4. Sport and Recreation function subscale

    Sport and Recreation function including 5 items,The minimum value is 0 and maximum values subscale is 100. Each subscale is scored separately from zero (extreme knee problems) to 100 (no knee problems).

    Measured: up to 12 month

  5. knee-related Quality of Life subscale

    knee-related Quality of Life including 4 items,The minimum value is 0 and maximum values subscale is 100. Each subscale is scored separately from zero (extreme knee problems) to 100 (no knee problems).

    Measured: up to 12 month

  6. KOOS4

    KOOS4, The minimum value is 0 and maximum values subscale is100. KOOS4 defined as the average score for four of the five knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) validity for patients with meniscal tears and osteoarthritis.

    Measured: up to 12 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metabolic Syndrome and Meniscus Lesion, run by The First People's Hospital of Jingzhou at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jun 2021. 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 China. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) total (time frame: up to 12 month). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 10 Jun 2021.
