RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Anterior knee pain (AKP) is associated with patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PFOA), but longitudinal studies are lacking. If AKP precedes PFOA, it may create an opportunity to identify and intervene earlier in the disease process. The purpose of this study was to examine the longitudinal relation of AKP to worsening patellofemoral (PF) cartilage over two years. DESIGN: Participants were recruited from the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study, a longitudinal study of individuals with or at risk for knee osteoarthritis (OA). Exclusion criteria included bilateral knee replacements, arthritis other than OA, and radiographic PFOA. At baseline, participants completed a knee pain map questionnaire and underwent knee magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Imaging was repeated at 2-year follow-up. Exposure was presence of frequent AKP. Outcome was worsening cartilage damage in the PF joint defined as increase in MRI Osteoarthritis Knee Score from baseline to 2 years. Log-binomial models were used to calculate risk ratios (RR). RESULTS: One knee from 1083 participants (age 56.7 ± 6.6 years; body mass index 28.0 ± 4.9 kg/m2) was included. Frequent AKP and frequent isolated AKP were present at baseline in 14.5% and 3.6%, respectively. Frequent AKP was associated with an increased risk (RR: 1.78, 95% confidence interval: 1.21, 2.62) of 2-year worsening cartilage damage in the lateral PF compartment. No association was found between frequent AKP and worsening in the medial PF joint. CONCLUSION: Frequent AKP at baseline was associated with worsening cartilage damage in the lateral PF joint over 2 years.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: We systematically reviewed the literature to identify comparative studies of core treatments (exercise, education, or weight management), adjunct treatments (e.g. electrotherapeutical modalities, bracing), or multimodal treatments (core plus other treatments), for treating osteoarthritis (OA) complaints, published between 1 March 2022 and 1 March 2023. DESIGN: We searched three electronic databases for peer-reviewed comparative studies evaluating core treatments, adjunct treatments, or multimodal treatments for OA affecting any joint, in comparison to other OA treatments. Two authors independently screened records. Methodological quality was assessed using the Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale. A narrative synthesis focusing on pain and function outcomes was performed in studies with a mean sample size of at least 46 participants per treatment arm. RESULTS: 33 publications (28 studies), 82% with PEDro ratings of good or excellent, were eligible for narrative synthesis: 23 studies evaluated knee OA; one knee OA or chronic low back pain; two knee or hip OA; one hip OA only; and one thumb OA. No studies identified a dose, duration or type of exercise that resulted in better pain or function outcomes. Core treatments generally showed modest benefits compared to no or minimal intervention controls. CONCLUSIONS: Rehabilitation research continues to be focused on the knee. Most studies are not adequately powered to assess pain efficacy. Further work is needed to better account for contextual effects, identify treatment responder characteristics, understand treatment mechanisms, and implement guideline care.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: It is unclear if alterations in nociceptive signaling contribute to poor physical functioning in persons with knee osteoarthritis (OA). We aimed to characterize the relation of pain sensitization to physical functioning in persons with or at risk for knee OA, and determine if knee pain severity mediates these relationships. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We used cross-sectional data from the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study, a cohort study of persons with or at risk for knee OA. Pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) and temporal summation (TS) were assessed with quantitative sensory testing. Self-reported function was quantified with the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index function subscale (WOMAC-F). Walking speed was determined during a 20-m walk. Knee extension strength was assessed with dynamometry. Relations of PPTs and TS to functional outcomes were examined with linear regression. The mediating role of knee pain severity was assessed with mediation analyses. RESULTS: Among 1560 participants (60.5% female, mean age (SD) 67 (8), body mass index (BMI) 30.2 (5.5) kg/m2), lower PPTs and the presence of TS were associated with worse WOMAC-F scores, slower walking speeds, and weaker knee extension. The extent of mediation by knee pain severity was mixed, with the greatest mediation observed for self-report function and only minimally for performance-based function. CONCLUSIONS: Heightened pain sensitivity appears to be meaningfully associated with weaker knee extension in individuals with or at risk for knee OA. Relations to self-reported physical function and walking speed do not seem clinically meaningful. Knee pain severity differentially mediated these relationships.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Eligibility for clinical trials in osteoarthritis (OA) is usually limited to Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grades 2 and 3 knees. Our aim was to describe the prevalence and severity of cartilage damage in KL 2 and 3 knees by compartment and articular subregion. DESIGN: The Multicenter Osteoarthritis (MOST) study is a cohort study of individuals with or at risk for knee OA. All baseline MRIs with radiographic disease severity KL2 and 3 were included. Knee MRIs were read for cartilage damage in 14 subregions. We determined the frequencies of no, any and widespread full-thickness cartilage damage by knee compartment, and the prevalence of any cartilage damage in 14 articular subregions. RESULTS: 665 knees from 665 participants were included (mean age 63.8 ± 7.9 years, 66.5% women). 372 knees were KL2 and 293 knees were KL3. There was no cartilage damage in 78 (21.0%) medial tibio-femoral joint (TFJ), 157 (42.2%) lateral TFJ and 62 (16.7%) patello-femoral joint (PFJ) compartments of KL2 knees, and 17 (5.8%), 115 (39.3%) and 35 (12.0%) compartments, respectively, of KL3 knees. There was widespread full-thickness damage in 94 (25.3%) medial TFJ, 36 (9.7%) lateral TFJ and 176 (47.3%) PFJ compartments of KL2 knees, and 217 (74.1%), 70 (23.9%) and 104 (35.5%) compartments, respectively, of KL3 knees. The subregions most likely to have any damage were central medial femur (80.5%), medial patella (69.8%) and central medial tibia (69.9). CONCLUSIONS: KL2 and KL3 knees vary greatly in cartilage morphology. Heterogeneity in the prevalence, severity and location of cartilage damage in in KL2 and 3 knees should be considered when planning disease modifying trials for knee OA.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To examine the relation of pain sensitization to altered motor activity in knee OA as assessed by hamstrings muscle co-contraction during maximal effort knee extension. DESIGN: Medial, lateral, and overall hamstring co-contraction was assessed in the Multicenter Osteoarthritis (MOST) Study cohort using electromyography during isokinetic knee extension at 60°/second. Mechanical temporal summation of pain (TS) was assessed at the right wrist and pressure pain thresholds (PPT) were assessed at the patellae; PPTs were categorized into sex-specific tertiles. Muscle co-contraction was categorized into age- and sex-specific tertiles. We evaluated the relation of measures of sensitization to muscle co-contraction using a generalized logistic regression model. RESULTS: 1633 participants were included: mean age and BMI was 67.3 ± 7.7 years and 30.3 ± 5.6 kg/m2, respectively; 58% were female. Presence of TS was associated with higher overall (OR 1.3, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.0-1.8)), medial (1.4 (1.0-1.9), and lateral (1.3 (1.0, 1.9)) hamstring co-contraction. The lowest PPT tertile (greater sensitivity) was associated with higher overall (1.5 (1.0, 2.3)) and medial (1.5 (1.0, 2.3)) hamstring co-contraction compared with those in the highest PPT tertile. CONCLUSION: Greater pain sensitization, as assessed by presence of TS at the wrist and low patellar PPT, was associated with greater overall and medial hamstring co-contraction during knee extension. This provides support to the possibility that peripheral and/or central nervous system alterations may not only affect pain sensitivity, but also motor function.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relation of trochlea morphology and patellofemoral alignment to prevalent radiographic patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PFOA). DESIGN: A within-person knee-matched case-control study was performed. Participants with unilateral radiographic PFOA were selected from the Multicenter Population-based Osteoarthritis Study (MPOA) in three towns in northern China that was approved by Peking University Health Science Center Ethics Committee (2018PHB166-01). Radiographic PFOA, radiographic tibiofemoral OA, sulcus angle, patellofemoral index and patella displacement were assessed using posterio-anterior and skyline views of the knee. We classified sulcus angle, patellofemoral index and patella displacement into quarters and investigated the relation of each of these measures to prevalent radiographic PFOA. RESULTS: Among 451 participants (mean age: 65.2 years, women: 66.8%) with unilateral radiographic PFOA, a reverse J-shaped relationship was observed between sulcus angle and prevalent radiographic PFOA (P = 0.039 for quadratic term). Both higher patellofemoral index and patella displacement were associated with higher prevalent radiographic PFOA. Adjusted odds ratios (ORs) of prevalent radiographic PFOA in the highest quarter of patellofemoral index and patella displacement were 4.69 and 3.60 (P for trend <0.001), respectively, compared with the lowest quarter of each measurement. A similar relationship was observed between sulcus angle with either prevalent radiographic lateral or medial PFOA. Higher values of patellofemoral index and patella displacement were statistically significantly associated with higher prevalent radiographic lateral (ORs = 5.07 and 4.59, respectively), but not medial PFOA (ORs = 0.58 and 0.76, respectively). CONCLUSION: Extreme sulcus angles as well as higher values of patellofemoral index and patella displacement were associated with higher prevalent radiographic PFOA.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: To determine the association between Insall-Salvati ratio (ISR), a measure of patella alta, and worsening of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)-based osteoarthritis (OA)-related patellofemoral joint structural damages over 24-month in participants of the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI). DESIGN: Using weighted random sampling method, we selected a sample of 500 knees (from 1,677 knees with available baseline and 24-months MRI OA Knee Score (MOAKS) measurements), which is OAI-representative regarding knee OA-related factors (i.e., baseline age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and radiographic Kellgren-Lawrence grading). The ISR was measured in all enrolled knees using baseline sagittal 3T-MRI plane by three radiologists. Baseline and 24-month MOAKS variables for patellofemoral bone marrow lesions (BMLs), cartilage damages, and osteophytes were extracted, and the associations between ISR and 24-month worsening of these 3T-MRI features were evaluated using multivariable regression models. After computing receiver operating characteristic curves, the optimal cutoff point of ISR for indicating worsening of patellofemoral OA was determined. P-values were adjusted for multiple comparisons and false discovery rate (FDR) adjusted P-values were reported. RESULTS: In this longitudinal analysis, 24-month worsening of BML (odds ratio [OR] (95% confidence interval [95% CI]):11.18 (3.35-39.6), adjusted-p-value:<0.001) and cartilage scores (OR:7.39 (1.62-34.71), adjusted-p-value:0.042) in lateral patella was associated with higher baseline ISR. However, higher ISR was not statistically associated with medial patellar or medial and lateral trochlear BML or cartilage scores worsening. We determined the optimal cutoff point of ISR≥1.14 (95% CI: 1.083-1.284) for predicting lateral patellofemoral OA-related structural damages worsening over 24-months (sensitivity:73.73%; specificity: 66.67%). CONCLUSIONS: Given the uncertainly surrounding the results, our overall findings suggest that ISR could be considered as a predictor of lateral patellofemoral OA-related structural damages worsening with the optimal cutoff point of ≥1.14 using knee sagittal MRI measurements.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To determine the sex-specific relation of frontal plane alignment (FPA) to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-defined features of patellofemoral osteoarthritis, and also to tibiofemoral osteoarthritis and knee pain. METHOD: The Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study is cohort study comprised of individuals with or at risk of knee osteoarthritis. We determined the sex-specific dose-response relation of baseline FPA to MRI-defined patellofemoral and tibiofemoral structural worsening, and incident knee pain, over 7 years. RESULTS: In women only, greater varus alignment was associated with medial patellofemoral osteophytes (risk ratio [RR] 1.7 [95% CI 1.2, 2.6]) and valgus with lateral patellofemoral osteophytes (RR 1.9 [1.0, 3.6]). In men, greater varus increased risk for medial tibiofemoral cartilage worsening (RR 1.7 [1.1, 2.6]), and valgus for lateral tibiofemoral cartilage worsening (RR 1.8 [1.6, 2.2]). In women, findings were similar for tibiofemoral cartilage, but varus also increased risk for medial bone marrow lesions [BMLs] (RR 2.2 [1.6, 3.1]) and medial osteophytes (RR 1.8 [1.3, 2.5]), and valgus for lateral BMLs (RR 3.3 [2.2, 4.5]) and osteophytes (RR 2.0 [1.2, 3.2]). Varus increased risk of incident pain in men (RR 1.7 [1.4, 2.2]) and women (RR 1.3 [1.0, 1.6]), valgus did so in men only (RR 1.5 [1.1, 1.9]). CONCLUSION: FPA was associated with patellofemoral osteophyte worsening in women, though overall was more strongly associated with tibiofemoral than patellofemoral osteoarthritis feature worsening. FPA in women was more consistently associated with structural worsening, yet men had higher associations with incident pain.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To determine the relationship of meniscal damage to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of compartment-specific patellofemoral joint (PFJ) osteoarthritis (OA) at baseline and 2 years later. METHOD: Individuals from a prospective cohort of individuals aged 50-79 with or at risk of knee OA were included. At the 60-month and 84-month study visit, Whole-Organ MRI Score (WORMS) was used to assess meniscal tears and extrusions as well as cartilage damage and bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in the medial and lateral patella and trochlea. Worsening of structural features was defined as any increase in WORMS score from 60 to 84 months. Logistic regression was used to determine the cross-sectional and longitudinal relation of meniscus damage to features of compartment-specific PFJ OA. RESULTS: Relative to knees without lateral meniscal pathology at baseline, those with grades 3-4 lateral meniscal tear and extrusion had greater risk of worsening of cartilage damage in the lateral PFJ 2 years later (Risk ratio: 1.7 [95% CI: 1.1-2.7) and (1.7 [1.2-2.5]), respectively. Relative to those without medial meniscal pathology at baseline, those with grades 1-2 (0.6 [0.4-0.9]) and 3-4 (0.7 [0.5-1.0]) medial meniscal tears had lower risk of worsening of BMLs in the medial PFJ 2 years later. CONCLUSION: Meniscal tear and extrusion are associated with increased risk of medial and lateral PFJ OA and more severe meniscal pathology is associated with worsening of PFJ OA 2 years later. Lateral meniscal pathology appears to be more detrimental to the lateral PFJ.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To determine the relation of superolateral Hoffa's fat pad (SHFP) hyperintensity to cartilage damage and bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in the patellofemoral joint (PFJ) and tibiofemoral joint (TFJ). METHODS: We used data from the 60 and 84-month study visits from the Multicenter Osteoarthritis (MOST) study. SHFP hyperintensity and Hoffa-synovitis were graded from 0 to 3. Cartilage damage and BMLs were scored in the PFJ and TFJ. Structural damage was defined as: any cartilage damage, full-thickness cartilage damage and any BML. Worsening structural damage was defined as any increase in cartilage and BML scores. Logistic regression was used to determine the relation of SHFP hyperintensity and Hoffa-synovitis (>0) to structural damage, adjusting for age, sex and body mass index (BMI). RESULTS: 1,094 knees were included in the study. Compared to knees without SHFP hyperintensity, those with SHFP hyperintensity had 1.2 (95% Confidence Interval (CI), 1.1-1.4), 1.7 (1.3-2.3) and 1.6 (1.3-1.9) times the prevalence of any cartilage damage, full-thickness cartilage damage, and BMLs in the lateral PFJ respectively, and 1.1 (1.0-1.2), 1.3 (1.0-1.8), and 1.2 (1.0-1.4) times the prevalence of any cartilage damage, full-thickness cartilage damage, and BMLs in the medial PFJ. SHFP hyperintensity was associated with worsening BMLs in the medial PFJ (RR: 1.4 (1.0-1.9)). In general, there was no relation between SHFP hyperintensity and TFJ outcomes. Hoffa-synovitis was associated both cross-sectionally and longitudinally with structural damage, regardless of definition, in all compartments. CONCLUSION: SHFP hyperintensity may be a local marker of PFJ structural damage.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to (1) determine reference values for trochlear morphology and patellofemoral (PF) alignment in adults without magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-defined PF full thickness cartilage damage or knee pain; and (2) evaluate dose-response patterns for these measures with prevalent MRI-defined PF structural damage and/or knee pain. DESIGN: The Framingham Community Cohort is a population-based sample of ambulatory adults aged ≥50 years. We evaluated six morphology and alignment measures using MRI (n = 985), and reported reference values (mean ± 2SD) in a subsample without MRI-defined PF full thickness cartilage damage or knee pain (n = 563). With restricted cubic spline Poisson regression, we evaluated dose-response patterns of each of the six measures with prevalent MRI-defined PF structural damage or joint pain. Our primary outcome was full thickness cartilage damage. RESULTS: For dose-response curves, prevalence ratios (PR) increased monotonically for all measures except patellar tilt, which rose with both lateral and medial tilt. Associations were generally strongest in the lateral PF compartment. PR for the strongest predictors of full thickness cartilage damage reached clinical relevance (PR > 1.5) at sulcus angle (SA) ≥135.0°; patellar tilt angle at ≤1.0° and ≥15.0°; and bisect offset ≥57.0%. Lateral trochlear inclination (LTI) achieved PR > 1.5 at ≤23.0° for full thickness cartilage damage with pain. CONCLUSIONS: SA, patellar tilt, and bisect offset were most strongly associated with full thickness cartilage damage. LTI, patellar tilt and bisect offset had stronger associations with the addition of pain. These findings contribute to better identifying a subset of patients who may benefit from mechanically based interventions.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: To investigate changes in cartilage damage and bone marrow lesions (BMLs) on MRI in the patellofemoral and tibiofemoral joints (TFJs) over 7 years. METHODS: The Multicenter Osteoarthritis (MOST) Study is a cohort study of persons aged 50-79 years at baseline with or at high risk for knee osteoarthritis (OA). Knees were eligible for the current study if they had knee MRI (1.0T) assessed for cartilage damage and BMLs at the baseline and 84-month visits. Knees were categorized as having MRI-detected structural damage (cartilage and BMLs) isolated to the patellofemoral joint (PFJ), isolated to the TFJ, mixed or no damage at baseline and 84-months. We determined the changes in PFJ and TFJ structural damage over 7 years and used logistic regression to assess the relation of baseline compartment distribution to incident isolated PFJ, isolated TFJ and mixed damage. RESULTS: Among 339 knees that had full-thickness cartilage loss isolated to the PFJ or TFJ at baseline, only 68 (20.1%) developed full-thickness cartilage loss in the other compartment while 271 (79.9%) continued to only have the initial compartment affected. Compared to knees without full-thickness cartilage damage (n = 582), those with isolated TFJ and PFJ full-thickness cartilage damage had 2.7 (1.5, 4.9) and 5.8 (3.6, 9.6) times the odds of incident mixed full-thickness cartilage damage, respectively. Similar results were seen when using other definitions of MRI-defined structural damage. CONCLUSIONS: Most knees with structural damage at baseline do not develop it in the other compartment. Knees that develop mixed structural damage are more likely to start with it isolated to the PFJ.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To examine the relation of cartilage loss and bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in the medial and lateral patellofemoral joint (PFJ) to knee pain. METHODS: We categorized the location of full-thickness cartilage loss and BMLs in the PFJ on knee magnetic resonance imaging (MRIs) from the Multicenter Osteoarthritis (MOST) and Framingham Osteoarthritis (FOA) Studies as no damage, isolated medial, isolated lateral, or both medial and lateral (mixed). We determined the relation of MRI lesions in each PFJ region to prevalent knee pain. Differences in knee pain severity were compared among categories of PFJ full-thickness cartilage loss and BMLs using quantile regression. RESULTS: In MOST (n = 1137 knees), compared with knees without full-thickness cartilage loss, knees with isolated lateral or mixed PFJ full-thickness cartilage loss had 1.9 (1.3, 2.8) and 1.9 (1.2, 2.9) times the odds of knee pain, respectively, while isolated medial cartilage loss had no association with knee pain. BMLs in both the medial and lateral PFJ had 1.5 (1.1, 2.0) times the odds of knee pain compared with knees without BMLs. Knee pain severity was lowest in knees with isolated medial PFJ cartilage loss or BMLs. In FOA (n = 934 knees), neither isolated medial nor lateral cartilage loss was associated with knee pain, whereas isolated BMLs in either region were associated with pain. CONCLUSIONS: Results were not completely concordant but suggest that knee pain risk and severity is greatest with cartilage loss isolated to (MOST) or inclusive of (MOST and FOA) the lateral PFJ. While BMLs in either the medial or lateral PFJ are related to pain.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the prevalence of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) detected structural damage in the patellofemoral joint (PFJ) and tibiofemoral joint (TFJ) in a population-based cohort. A secondary aim was to evaluate the patterns of compartmental involvement in knees with pain, between men and women, and in different age and body mass index (BMI) categories. METHODS: We studied 970 knees, one knee per subject, from the Framingham Osteoarthritis Study, a population-based cohort study of persons 51-92 years old. Cartilage damage and bone marrow lesions (BMLs) were assessed using the Whole Organ Magnetic Resonance Imaging Score (WORMS). The prevalence of isolated PFJ, isolated TFJ, and mixed structural damage was determined using the following definitions: any cartilage damage, full thickness cartilage loss, any BML, and the combination of full thickness cartilage loss with any BML. RESULTS: The mean age and BMI was 63.4 years and 28.6 m/kg(2), respectively; 57% were female. Isolated PFJ damage occurred in 15-20% of knees and isolated TFJ damage occurred in 8-17% of knees depending on the definition used. The prevalence of isolated PFJ damage was greater than isolated TFJ damage using all definitions except the any BML definition. This pattern was similar between genders and among age and BMI categories. In those with knee pain, isolated PFJ was at least as common as TFJ damage depending on the definition used. CONCLUSION: Using MRI to assess knee joint structural damage, isolated PFJ damage was at least as common as, if not more common than, isolated TFJ damage.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The study objective was to determine the relationship of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-detected features of patellofemoral joint osteoarthritis to pain and functional outcomes. METHODS: We sampled 1,099 participants from the 60-month visit of the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study (mean ± SD age: 66.8 ± 7.5 years; body mass index: 29.6 ± 4.8; 65% female). We determined the prevalence of MRI-detected features of patellofemoral joint osteoarthritis (eg, cartilage damage, bone marrow lesions, and osteophytes) and assessed the relationship between these features and knee pain severity, knee pain on stairs, chair stand time, and walking less than 6,000 steps per day. We evaluated the relationship of MRI features to each outcome using logistic and linear regression, adjusting for potential covariates. RESULTS: Participants with cartilage damage in 3-4 subregions had the highest mean pain severity (22.0/100; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 17.6-26.4 mm). They also showed higher odds of having at least mild pain on stairs (odds ratio [OR]: 3.3; 95% CI: 1.7-6.5) and of walking less than 6,000 steps per day (OR: 2.3; 95% CI: 1.1-4.4) compared with those without cartilage damage. Participants with bone marrow lesions in 3-4 subregions had higher odds of at least mild pain on stairs than those without (OR: 3.3; 95% CI: 2.2-5.2). Participants with osteophytes in 3-4 subregions also had higher odds of walking less than 6,000 steps/day (OR 2.1, 95% CI: 1.3-3.5, respectively). CONCLUSION: MRI-detected features of osteoarthritis of the patellofemoral joint are related to pain and functional performance. This knowledge highlights the need to develop treatments for those with patellofemoral joint osteoarthritis to improve pain and maximize function.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To assess the diagnostic performance of a comprehensive set of tests and measures to discriminate patellofemoral (PF) from tibiofemoral (TF) osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS: The Clinical Assessment of the Knee Study is a study of knee pain in the general population. The presence of PF crepitus and pain with PF compression were assessed. Anterior knee pain was determined using a knee pain map. Pain with climbing/descending stairs and walking on level ground were assessed with the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index. Radiographs were used to define the compartment(s) of the knee affected by OA (no OA, isolated/predominant PF joint OA, and isolated/predominant TF joint OA). In knees with mixed OA, knees with more severe PF joint OA were included in the isolated/predominant PF group (the same was done for TF joint OA). We determined the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value, and positive likelihood ratio (LR+) for each test and measure individually, and the combination of these measures, in distinguishing knees with PF joint OA from knees with TF joint OA or no OA. RESULTS: There were 745 knees included in the study. No measure had high sensitivity and specificity. Pain with climbing/descending stairs had the greatest sensitivity (90%) but poor specificity (15%). The combination of definite crepitus with no pain on walking had the greatest specificity (96%), PPV (53%), and LR+ (1.8), but poor sensitivity (7%). CONCLUSION: Typical clinical examination findings and knee pain patterns commonly thought to represent underlying PF joint pathology do not discriminate knees with PF joint OA from knees without OA or TF joint OA.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To examine the relationship between patella alta and the prevalence and worsening at followup of structural features of patellofemoral joint (PFJ) osteoarthritis (OA) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS: The Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study is a cohort study of persons ages 50-79 years with or at risk for knee OA. Patella alta was measured using the Insall-Salvati ratio (ISR) on the baseline lateral radiograph, and cartilage damage, bone marrow lesions (BMLs), and subchondral bone attrition (SBA) were graded on MRI at baseline and at 30 months of followup in the PFJ. We examined the association of the ISR with the prevalence and worsening of cartilage damage, BMLs, and SBA in the PFJ using logistic regression. RESULTS: A total of 907 knees were studied (mean age 62 years, body mass index 30 kg/m(2), ISR 1.10), 63% from female subjects. Compared with knees in the lowest ISR quartile at baseline, those in the highest quartile had 2.4 (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.7-3.3), 2.9 (95% CI 2.0-4.3), and 3.5 (95% CI 2.3-5.5) times the odds of having lateral PFJ cartilage damage, BMLs, and SBA, respectively, and 1.5 (95% CI 1.1-2.0), 1.3 (95% CI 0.9-1.8), and 2.2 (95% CI 1.4-3.4) times the odds of having medial PFJ cartilage damage, BMLs, and SBA, respectively. Similarly, those with high ISRs were also at risk for worsening of cartilage damage and BMLs over time than those with low ISRs. CONCLUSION: A high ISR, indicative of patella alta, is associated with structural features of OA in the PFJ. Additionally, the same knees have an increased risk of worsening of these same features over time.
