- Through research and analysis, the index levels of multiple omics detection in serum, blood cells, joint fluid, urine, tongue coating and discarded tissues of patients with LKD syndrome and PBS syndrome of knee osteoarthritis were obtained, and the syndrome characteristics were further obtained.
- The severity of syndrome was quantified by syndrome score scale and the correlation between the above results and the syndrome score of patients with knee osteoarthritis with LKD syndrome and PBS syndrome was studied in combination with imaging characteristics.
- To establish a "disease and syndrome cell model" and test relevant indicators to support the above research.
- Through the analysis of the above research results, the possible mechanism is analyzed to provide an objective basis for the biological basis of the syndrome and relevant evidence for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of knee osteoarthritis with traditional Chinese medicine.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Knee Osteoarthritis and Syndrome, run by Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing 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 10 inclusion and 6 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 1 Feb 2022. 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?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
the differences of metabonomics (time frame: 3 years). The study lists 99 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 1 Feb 2022.
