Abstract

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common chronic articular disease worldwide. It is also the most common form of OA and is characterized by high morbidity and disability rates. With the gradual increase in life expectancy and ageing population, KOA not only affects the quality of life of patients, but also poses a burden on global public health. OA is a disease of unknown etiology and complex pathogenesis. It commonly affects joints subjected to greater loads and higher levels of activity. The knee joint, which is the most complex joint of the human body and bears the greatest load among all joints, is therefore most susceptible to development of OA. KOA lesions may involve articular cartilage, synovium, joint capsule and periarticular muscles, causing irreversible articular damage. Factors such as mechanical overload, inflammation, metabolism, hormonal changes and ageing serve key roles in the acceleration of KOA progression. The clinical diagnosis of KOA is primarily based on combined analysis of symptoms, signs, imaging and laboratory examination results. At present, there is no cure for KOA and the currently available therapies primarily focus on symptomatic treatment and delay of disease progression. Knee replacement surgery is typically performed in patients with advanced disease. The current study presents a review of epidemiological characteristics, risk factors, histopathological manifestations, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment modalities and progress in KOA research.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
