About this study

Study the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients with knee osteoarthritis and conclude the relationship between metabolic syndrome and the severity of knee osteoarthritis

Read the detailed description

Osteoarthritis is one of the most common clinical conditions causing severe chronic and restrictive disability, especially in elderly people.

Of those aged 60 years and older, 10% of men and 13% of women had symptomatic knee OA . As the population ages and the prevalence of obesity and overweight generaly rises , the percentage of persons affected with symptomatic knee OA will likely increase.

The clinical manifestations in patients are joint pain, stiffness, and functional limitation .

Among all body joints; knee joint is the most commonly affected joint with osteoarthritis and accounts almost for four-fifth of the osteoarthritis burden worldwide .

Epidemiological research has shown an encouraging relationship between OA and metabolic syndrome , MetS include hypertension, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, and obesity .Recently, metabolic OA has been nominated as the fifth component of MetS .

Studies reported that adipokines may contribute to the development of osteoarthritis (OA) by increasing inflammatory cytokines and growth factors, modifying insulin sensitivity, and triggering processes that break down cartilage.

Studies also reported that hypertension can be linked to osteoarthritis through astherosclerosis which cause subchondral bone ischemia accelerating OA progression.

Furthermore, researches have linked glucose levels to knee osteoarthritis , supporting the possibility of pathophysiological mechanisms such oxidative stress in the chondrocytes and Cartilage-associated production of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) .

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Knee Osteoarthritis and Metabolic Syndrome, run by Assiut University.

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 3 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Fady Kerollos Louis, Dr (01207936730, Fadykeros5@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Metabolic syndrome in patients with knee osteoarthritis (time frame: Baseline). 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 NCT06611774, which also lists 6 linked publications.

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?
