RESUMO

PURPOSE: Exercise therapy is a crucial intervention for improving health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients undergoing haemodialysis. However, factors that improve HRQOL by improving physical function and dialysis-related symptoms remain unknown. This study aimed to examine the physical function parameters and dialysis-related symptoms that improve HRQOL following intradialytic exercise. METHODS: This multicentre cohort study included 596 patients who participated in an intradialytic exercise program three times per week for a period of 6 months, which comprised of stretching and resistance training. EuroQol 5 dimensions 5-level (EQ5D-5L), grip strength, isometric knee extension strength, 10-m walking speed, Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), and improvement in dialysis-related symptoms were measured at the baseline and post-intervention. A linear mixed model was used to analyse the effects of improved physical function and dialysis-related symptoms on improvements in EQ5D-5L. RESULTS: As a physical function index affecting ΔEQ5D-5L, only SPPB showed a significant increase in ΔEQ5D-5L compared with the non-improved group [difference in ΔEQ5D-5L, 0.05 (0.004 to 0.092) point; p < 0.05]). In addition, dialysis-related symptoms with Improved physical conditions [difference in ΔEQ5D-5L, 0.07 (0.02 to 0.13) point] and an Extended walking distance [difference in ΔEQ5D-5L was 0.07 (0.01 to 0.12) point] significantly influenced ΔEQ5D-5L (p < 0.05, both). CONCLUSIONS: The improvements observed in the SPPB scores and self-percieved physical fitness and ambulation range, attributable to intradialytic exercise, may potentially improve HRQOL.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) incidence is extremely high worldwide, and patients who develop AKI are at increased risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD), CKD progression, and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). However, there is no established treatment strategy for AKI. Based on the idea that exercise has a stabilizing effect on hemodynamics, we hypothesized that rehabilitation would have beneficial renal outcomes in patients with AKI associated with cardiovascular disease. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine whether rehabilitation can stabilize hemodynamics and positively impact renal outcomes in patients with AKI associated with cardiovascular disease. METHODS: In total, 107 patients with AKI associated with cardiovascular disease were enrolled in this single-center retrospective study and were either assigned to the exposure group (n = 36), which received rehabilitation at least once a week for at least 8 consecutive weeks, or to the control group (n = 71). Estimated glomerular filtration rate was assessed at baseline before admission, at the lowest value during hospitalization, and at 3, 12, and 24 months after enrolment. Trends over time (group × time) between the two groups were compared using generalized estimating equations. Moreover, congestive status was assessed by amino-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and the effect of rehabilitation on congestion improvement was investigated using logistical regression analysis. RESULTS: The time course of renal function after AKI, from baseline to each of the three timepoints suggested significant differences between the two groups (p < 0.01). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups at any time point in terms of percentage of patients who experienced a 40% estimated glomerular filtration rate reduction from that at baseline. The proportion of patients with improved congestion was significantly higher in the exposure group compared with that in the control group (p = 0.018). Logistic regression analysis showed that rehabilitation was significantly associated with improved congestion (p = 0.021, OR: 0.260, 95%CI: 0.083-0.815). CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that rehabilitation in patients with AKI associated with cardiovascular disease correlates with an improvement in congestion and may have a positive effect on the course of renal function.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Whether cruciate ligament forces in cruciate-preserving designs, such as unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) or bi-cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty (BCR-TKA), differ from those in normal knees remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to compare the in vivo kinematics and cruciate ligament force in knees before and after UKA or BCR-TKA to those in normal knees during high-flexion activity. METHODS: Overall, twenty normal knees, 17 knees with medial UKA, and 15 knees with BCR-TKA were fluoroscopically examined while performing a squatting activity. A 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional registration technique was employed to measure tibio-femoral kinematics. Ligament strains and tensions in the anteromedial bundle of the anterior cruciate ligament and posterolateral bundle of the anterior cruciate ligament and the anterolateral bundle of the posterior cruciate ligament (aPCL) and posteromedial bundle of the posterior cruciate ligament (pPCL) during knee flexion were analyzed. RESULTS: Tension in both bundles of the anterior cruciate ligament decreased with flexion. At 60° of flexion, anteromedial bundle of the anterior cruciate ligament tension in postoperative UKA knees was greater than that in normal knees. At 30° of flexion, posterolateral bundle of the anterior cruciate ligament tension in postoperative UKA knees was greater than that in normal knees. On the other hand, aPCL and pPCL tensions increased with flexion. From 40 to 110° of flexion, the postoperative aPCL tension in UKA knees was greater than that in normal knees. At 110° of flexion, the preoperative pPCL tension in UKA knees was greater than that in normal knees. In addition, the postoperative pPCL tension in UKA knees was larger than that in normal knees beyond 20° of flexion. Furthermore, the pPCL tension of postoperative BCR-TKA knees was larger than that in normal knees from 20 to 50° and beyond 90° of flexion. CONCLUSIONS: The cruciate ligament tensions, especially posterior cruciate ligament tension in knees after UKA, were greater than those in the normal knees. Surgeons performing bi-cruciat-preserving knee arthroplasties should therefore balance cruciate ligament tension more carefully in flexion and extension.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Continuation of an intradialytic exercise program is necessary to improve and maintain physical function in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Factors associated with dropout must be identified to ensure program continuation. This study aimed to investigate the dropout rates from an intradialytic exercise program at 6 and 12 months in patients undergoing hemodialysis and to identify dropout predictors. METHODS: This was a multicenter, retrospective observational study. Overall, 980 patients were enrolled in this study. Grip strength, 10-m walking speed, physical function, demographics and blood sampling data were measured at baseline, and dropouts were observed. Patients were classified as either continued or dropped out of the program at 6 and 12 months. The dropout rate was calculated for each time point. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the predictors of dropout. RESULTS: The dropout rate was 26.4% (n = 259) after 6 months, 24.1% (n = 172) between 6 and 12 months, and 44.3% (n = 424) overall at 1 year. Significant predictors of dropout after 6 months were slower 10-m walking speed, older age and high C-reactive protein level. Predictors of dropout after 12 months were slower 10-m walking speed and lower standardized dialysis volume. CONCLUSIONS: Walking capacity, age, inflammation and hemodialysis volume were determinants of dropout from the exercise program. Our findings provide new and important insights into the potential risk factors for dropout from long-term intradialytic exercise programs in patients undergoing hemodialysis.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Given the frequency of hamstring strain injuries (HSI) among male college American football players, several studies have attempted to determine whether certain risk factors can predict their occurrence. However, no consensus on modifiable risk factors for HSIs in male college American football players has yet been reached to prevent these injuries. This study aimed to clarify risk factors for HSI prospectively in college male American football players. METHODS: A total of 78 male college American football players, whose positions were limited to skill positions, were medically assessed for potential risk factors of HSI. The preseason medical assessment included anthropometric measurements, joint laxity and flexibility, muscle flexibility, muscle strength, and balance ability. RESULTS: HSI occurred in a total of 25 thighs from 25 players (32.1%). Injured players had significantly lower hamstring flexibility (p = 0.02) and hamstring to quadriceps strength ratio (H/Q) (p = 0.047) compared to uninjured players. Additionally, injured players had significantly lower general joint laxity scores, especially for the total (p = 0.04), hip (p = 0.007), and elbow (p = 0.04) scores, compared to uninjured players. CONCLUSIONS: Lower hamstring flexibility, lower hamstring to quadriceps strength ratio, and lower general joint laxity score were identified as risk factors for HSI in male college American football players placed in skill positions. The muscle flexibility and H/Q ratio could be useful in preventing HSI in such players.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Bicruciate-retaining (BCR) prosthesis has been introduced to recreate normal knee movement by preserving both the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments. However, the use of BCR total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is still debatable because of several disappointing reports. We have been performing BCR TKAs with personalized alignment (PA). This study aimed to reveal the limb alignment and soft tissue balance of FA-BCR TKAs and compare the clinical outcomes of FA-BCR TKAs with those of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). METHODS: Fifty BCR TKAs and 58 UKAs were included in this study. The joint component gaps of BCR TKA were evaluated intraoperatively and the postoperative hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle, medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), and lateral distal femoral angle (LDFA) were measured using full-length standing radiography. The short-term clinical outcomes of BCR TKAs were compared with those of UKA using the scoring system of 2011 Knee Society Scoring (KSS) and the knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) at an average of 2 years postoperatively (1-4yeras). RESULTS: The coronal alignment values of PA-BCR TKA were as follows: HKA angle, 177.9° ± 2.3°; MPTA, 85.4° ± 1.9°; and LDFA, 87.5° ± 1.9°. The joint component gaps at flexion angles of 10°, 30°, 60°, and 90° were 11.1 ± 1.2, 10.9 ± 1.4, 10.7 ± 1.3, and 11.2 ± 1.4 mm for the medial compartment and 12.9 ± 1.5, 12.6 ± 1.8, 12.5 ± 1.8 and 12.5 ± 1.7 mm for the lateral compartment, respectively. The patient expectation score and maximum extension angle of PA-BCR TKA were significantly better than those of UKAs. CONCLUSIONS: The short-term clinical outcomes of PA-BCR TKA were comparable or a slightly superior to those of UKAs.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Intradialytic exercise improves physical function. However, malnutrition may be an essential factor affecting the effectiveness of exercise to improve physical function. Few studies of the relationship between malnutrition and the effectiveness of intradialytic exercise to improve physical function exist. Therefore, this study investigated malnutrition at the beginning of intradialytic exercise and how it affects the subsequent improvement in physical function. METHODS: Patients who performed intradialytic exercise for 12 months were enrolled in this study. A Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index of 91.2 was defined as malnutrition. Patients were assigned to 2 groups using propensity score matching to adjust for confounding factors. Physical function outcomes were handgrip strength, isometric knee extension strength, short physical performance battery, and 10-m walking speed; these were compared at baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. The 2 groups were further divided into another 2 groups as per whether the nutritional status had improved after 12 months; therefore, a total of 4 groups were analyzed. RESULTS: After matching, the data of 154 patients in each group were analyzed. During the intragroup comparison, isometric knee extension strength, short physical performance battery, and 10-m walking speed improved significantly in both groups after intradialytic exercise was started compared with before intradialytic exercise was started. However, there was no significant improvement in handgrip strength in the malnutrition group. There were no significant differences in any of the physical function measurements or changes from the baseline values among the 4 groups divided as per subsequent recovery of the nutritional status. CONCLUSION: Malnutrition may not impact the effectiveness of intradialytic exercise to improve lower-leg physical function. Its effect on the improvement of handgrip strength requires further investigation.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To analyse the effects of bicruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty (BCR-TKA) on the tensile force of the collateral ligaments during two deep knee flexion activities, cross-leg sitting and squatting. METHODS: Thirteen patients (15 knees) treated using bicruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty (BCR-TKA) for knee joint osteoarthritis were analysed. Knee joint kinematics during cross-leg sitting (open-chain flexion) and squatting (closed-chain flexion) were evaluated through fluoroscopy. The tensile force was calculated in vivo based on the change in the distance between the femoral and tibial attachment areas for the anterior, middle, and posterior components of the superficial (sMCL) and deep (dMCL) medial collateral ligament and the lateral collateral ligament (LCL). Differences in the calculated tensile forces of the collateral ligaments were evaluated using repeated measures of analysis of variance, with post hoc pairwise comparison (Bonferroni test). Statistical significance was set at P ≤ 0.05. RESULTS: The correction of the coronal alignment was related to the surgical technique, not to the implant design. No significant change in the tensile force in all three components of the sMCL from pre- to post-TKA (n.s.) was observed. For dMCL, a pre- to post-TKA change in the tensile force was observed only for the anterior dMCL component (p = 0.03). No change was observed in the tensile force of the anterior LCL with increasing flexion, with no difference in pre- to post-TKA and between activities (n.s.). In contrast, tensile force in the middle LCL slightly decreased with increasing flexion during squatting, pre- and post-TKA. After surgery, lower forces were generated at 40° of flexion (p = 0.04). Tensile force in the posterior LCL was higher in extension than flexion, which remained high in the extension post-TKA. However, after surgery, lower tensile forces were generated at 10° (p = 0.04) and 40° (p = 0.04) of flexion. CONCLUSIONS: The in vivo change in tensile forces of the collateral ligaments of the knee before and after BCR-TKA can inform the development of appropriate ligament balancing strategies to facilitate recovery of deep knee flexion activities after TKA, as well as for continued improvement of BCR-TKA designs. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Patellofemoral (PF) compartment cartilage lesions are a frequent problem after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. This study aimed to determine the factors that influence PF cartilage lesions after anatomical ACL reconstruction. METHODS: This study enrolled a total of 114 patients who did not manifest PF compartment cartilage lesions during anatomical ACL reconstruction and underwent second-look arthroscopy 18 months postoperatively. Arthroscopy using the International Cartilage Repair Society (ICRS) classification was used to assess cartilage lesions. The correlation between surgical findings, radiographic factors, and clinical factors and change of ICRS grade was analysed. Multivariate regression analysis was conducted to reveal the independent risk factors for PF cartilage lesions among patients' demographic data and parameters that correlated with the change of ICRS grade in the correlation analyses. RESULTS: ICRS grade changes in PF cartilage were significantly correlated with age, sex, quadriceps strength at 1 year postoperatively, hamstrings strength at pre- and 1 year postoperatively, and single leg hop test at 1 year postoperatively. However, no significant correlation was found between the time between injury and surgery, posterior tibial slope angle, pre- and postoperative Tegner activity scale, graft type, initial graft tension, meniscus injury, meniscus injury treatment, pre- and postoperative range of motion, anteroposterior laxity and preoperative quadriceps strength, and the change in ICRS grade. Multivariate regression analysis revealed male (P = 0.019) and quadriceps strength weakness at 1 year postoperatively (P = 0.009) as independent risk factors for PF cartilage lesions. CONCLUSIONS: Quadriceps strength weakness 1 year after ACL reconstruction and males were correlated with a new PF cartilage lesion after anatomical ACL reconstruction, with no significant correlation between bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft, initial graft tension, or extension deficit and new PF cartilage lesion. Rehabilitation that focuses on quadriceps strength after ACL reconstruction is recommended to prevent new PF cartilage lesions. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Elderly peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients required assistance for a variety of PD-related tasks. The usefulness of assisted PD in reducing the peritonitis risk has been reported; however, there is little evidence on the effectiveness of assisted PD in preventing exit-site infections in older patients. METHODS: This was a single-center, prospective cohort study. Thirty-three patients (mean age: 74.8 ± 5.9 years) on PD were evaluated for cognitive impairment (CI) using the Japanese version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment. They were also evaluated to determine whether they performed the exit-site care procedure alone or with assistance. Patients were categorized into four groups based on the presence or absence of CI and the presence or absence of exit-site care assistance. They were followed up until the occurrence of peritonitis and exit-site infection at the end of the follow-up. RESULTS: Altogether, 8, 8, and 17 patients were assigned to the "without CI and without assistance", "without CI and with assistance", and "with CI and with assistance groups", respectively; no patients were assigned to the "with CI and without assistance group". Six and 16 patients experienced peritonitis and exit-site infection during follow-up, respectively. Kaplan-Meier analysis and log-rank tests revealed that the "without CI and without assistance group" was significantly associated with exit-site infection (log-rank < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Patients who did not receive assistance for exit-site care were at a higher risk of exit-site infections, even in the absence of CI. Caregiver assistance is important for preventing exit-site infections in older patients on PD.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The normal knee kinematics during asymmetrical kneeling such as the sitting sideways remains unknown. This study aimed to clarify in vivo kinematics during sitting sideways of normal knees. METHODS: Twelve knees from six volunteers were examined. Under fluoroscopy, each volunteer performed a sitting sideways. A two-dimensional/three-dimensional registration technique was used. The rotation angle, varus-valgus angle, anteroposterior translation of the medial and lateral sides of the femur relative to the tibia, and kinematic pathway in each flexion angle was evaluated. RESULTS: Bilateral knees during sitting sideways showed a femoral external rotation relative to the tibia with flexion (ipsilateral: 13.7 ± 3.5°, contralateral: 5.8 ± 6.8°). Whereas the ipsilateral knees showed valgus movement of 4.6 ± 2.5° from 130° to 150° of flexion, and the contralateral knees showed varus movement of -3.1 ± 4.4° from 110° to 150° of flexion. The medial side of the contralateral knees was more posteriorly located than that of the ipsilateral knees beyond 110° of flexion. The lateral side of the contralateral knees was more anteriorly located than that of the ipsilateral knees from 120° to 150° of flexion. In the ipsilateral knees, a medial pivot pattern followed by a bicondylar rollback was observed. In the contralateral knees, no significant movement followed by a bicondylar rollback was observed. CONCLUSION: Even though the asymmetrical kneeling such as sitting sideways, the knees did not display asymmetrical movement.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The choice of mobile bearing (MB) thickness is essential for obtaining successful results after mobile-bearing Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). This study aimed to investigate the effects of a 1-mm difference in bearing thickness on intraoperative MB movement and intraoperative knee kinematics in Oxford UKAs. METHODS: We prospectively investigated the effects of a 1-mm difference in bearing thickness on intraoperative MB movement and knee kinematics in 25 patients who underwent Oxford UKAs when surgeons didn't know which bearing thickness to choose with 1-mm difference. A trial tibial component that was scaled every 2 mm was used to measure the intraoperative MB movement, and the tibial internal rotation relative to the femur and the knee varus angle was simultaneously evaluated using the navigation system as the knee kinematics. We separately evaluated sets of two MB thicknesses with 1-mm differences, and we compared the intraoperative parameters at maximum extension; 30º, 45º, 60º, and 90º flexion; and maximum flexion between the thicker MB (thick group) and the thinner MB (thin group). RESULTS: The MB in the thin group was located significantly posteriorly at 90º flexion compared with that in the thick group; however, there were no differences at the other flexion angles. There was significantly less tibial internal rotation in the thin group at 90º flexion than that in the thick group; however, there were no differences at the other flexion angles. The knee varus angles in the thick group were significantly smaller than those in the thin group by approximately one degree at all angles other than at 30º and 45º flexion. CONCLUSION: The thicker MB could bring the less posterior MB movement and the more tibial internal rotation at 90º flexion, additionally the valgus correction angle in the thicker MB should be paid attention. These results could help surgeons to decide the thickness of MBs when they wonder the thickness of MB.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In bicruciate-stabilized total knee arthroplasty (BCS-TKA), the relationship between the postoperative kinematics and sports subscales in patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between kinematics and sports subscales using the PROMs after BCS-TKA. METHODS: Sixty-one patients with severe knee osteoarthritis were examined at 13.5 ± 7.8 months after BCS-TKA. The patients performed squats under single fluoroscopic surveillance in the sagittal plane. Range of motion of the knee, axial rotation of the femur relative to the tibial component, and anteroposterior (AP) translation of the medial and lateral femorotibial contact points were measured using a 2D-to-3D registration technique. In addition, the relationship between the kinematics and improvement of the sports subscales in the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) was evaluated. RESULTS: In rotation angle, the femoral external rotation was observed from 0 to 50° of flexion. The amount of femoral external rotation did not correlate with PROMs-SP. In medial AP translation, posterior translation was observed from 0 to 20° and 80-110° of flexion. Mild anterior translation was observed from 20 to 80° of flexion. Beyond 80° of flexion, posterior translation was positively correlated with squatting. In lateral AP translation, posterior translation was observed from 0 to 20° and 80-110° of flexion. Beyond 80° of flexion, posterior translation was positively correlated with running, jumping, twisting/pivoting, and kneeling. CONCLUSION: Femoral rollback at high flexion during squatting may be important to improve sports performance after BCS-TKA.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The hypothesis of this study was that the kinematics of patients with higher patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) differ from those of patients with lower PROMs after bicruciate-stabilized total knee arthroplasty (BCS-TKA). METHODS: A total of 32 patients with severe knee osteoarthritis were examined 11.2 ± 3.2 months after BCS-TKA. The patients performed squats under single fluoroscopic surveillance in the sagittal plane. To estimate the spatial position and orientation of the femoral and tibial components, a 2D-to-3D registration technique was used. This technique uses a contour-based registration algorithm, single-view fluoroscopic images and 3D computer-aided design models. Knee range of motion, varus-valgus alignment, axial rotation of the femur relative to the tibial component, anteroposterior translation of the medial and lateral femorotibial contact points, kinematic paths, and anterior and posterior post-cam engagement were measured. The patients were divided into two groups using hierarchical cluster analysis based on the 1-year postoperative Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score and 2011 Knee Society Score. RESULTS: The femoral component had significantly more external rotation in the low-score group than in the high-score group (5.1 ± 1.8° vs. 2.2 ± 2.7°, p = 0.02). The high-score group had a medial pivot pattern from 0 to 20° of flexion, without significant movement from 20 to 70°, and final bicondylar rollback beyond 70°. The low-score group had a medial pivot from 0 to 70° of flexion and bicondylar rollback beyond 70°. There were no significant between-group differences in the varus-valgus angle or post-cam engagement. CONCLUSION: The higher PROM group had smaller external rotation of the femur after BCS-TKA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III.

RESUMO

Patients with minimal change nephrotic syndrome (MCNS) are prone to loss of motor skills due to urinary protein leakage, steroid myopathy, and other factors. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication that contributes to the loss of physical function. Rehabilitation is crucial, but its efficacy and safety are unknown. Here we present a case of a patient with MCNS complicated by AKI, who commenced rehabilitation after dialysis was discontinued and experienced improved mobility. The patient, a woman in her 70s, was admitted to our hospital with bilateral lower limb edema and decreased urine output for approximately 5 days. Treatment with prednisolone and furosemide was initiated, but then dialysis was initiated due to AKI. Rehabilitation was started after dialysis was discontinued. The patient's muscle strength and physical activity improved, and her exercise capacity and exercise tolerance improved without adverse effects. Rehabilitation may contribute to the improvement of exercise capacity without worsening renal function and urinary protein in patients with MCNS complicated by AKI.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The first objective of this study was to determine the relationship between muscle strength or physical performance and mortality, and the second objective was to show the relationship of Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) to muscle strength and physical performance decline. METHODS: We examined handgrip, the 5-times chair stand test, and GNRI in 635 maintenance hemodialysis patients and followed up for 72 months. Predictors for all-cause death were examined using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional analysis. The relationship between possible sarcopenia and nutritional disorder (GNRI) was constructed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. We used the Youden index to determine the optimal cutoff points for GNRI. RESULTS: The multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis revealed that the GNRI did not show any significance, although handgrip (HR 3.61, 95% CI 1.70-7.68, p < 0.001) and the 5-times chair stand test (HR 1.71 95% CI 1.01-2.90, p = 0.045) were significant predictors for mortality. On the evaluation of possible sarcopenia by handgrip strength, the area under curve (AUC) on ROC curve analysis were 0.68 (95% CI 0.64-0.72), and 5-chair stand, the AUC on ROC were 0.55 (95% CI 0.51-0.60). The cut-off value for the GNRI discriminating those at possible sarcopenia by handgrip strength based on the Youden index was 91.5. CONCLUSIONS: Our study suggests that the handgrip strength test of the AWGS 2019 sarcopenia consensus was a simple and useful tool to predict mortality in chronic hemodialysis patients. Furthermore, GNRI assessment can be a useful tool for screening before assessing possible sarcopenia when it is difficult to perform SARC-F to all patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Although Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is used in patients of wide age ranges, there is no clear information regarding the age differences in terms of intraoperative femorotibial rotational kinematics and its influence on clinical outcomes. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine the age differences in terms of intraoperative rotational kinematics and postoperative clinical outcomes and to analyze their relationship with classification according to the age group. METHODS: We investigated 111 knees of patients who underwent Oxford UKA using a navigation system and divided them into two groups: elderly (aged ≥75 years; 48 knees) and nonelderly (aged < 75 years; 63 knees). Intraoperative tibial internal rotational angles relative to the femur during passive knee flexion were measured using a navigation system, and clinical outcomes were evaluated using knee range of motion, the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), and the Knee Society Functional Score at 2 years postoperatively. The relationships between intraoperative tibiofemoral rotational angles and clinical outcomes were also evaluated in the two groups. RESULTS: The intraoperative tibial internal rotational angle relative to the femur during knee flexion was significantly larger in the nonelderly group (13.5°) than in the elderly group (9.0°). The intraoperative tibial internal rotational angle showed a positive correlation with the pain subscale of KOOS only in the nonelderly group. CONCLUSION: Intraoperative rotational kinematics and its influence on clinical outcomes were different between elderly and nonelderly patients, and the tibial internal rotational angle could be a more important factor for successful UKA in nonelderly patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: One of the causes of dissatisfaction following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is abnormal knee kinematics. A newly designed bi-cruciate stabilized (BCS) TKA system has been developed to produce close-to-normal kinematics because of its anatomic tibiofemoral articular geometry and cam-post mechanism. Although BCS TKA is expected to improve patient satisfaction, no reports have described the appropriate technique or soft tissue handling required to achieve excellent satisfaction with BCS TKA. This study is to identify intraoperative surgical predictors of patient satisfaction after BCS TKA. METHODS: We studied 104 knees with primary varus knee osteoarthritis that underwent BCS TKA with a navigation system retrospectively. Surgical parameters including coronal, sagittal and axial alignment and joint laxity in each compartment that affected patient satisfaction was evaluated. Satisfaction score was evaluated with use of the 2011 Knee Society Scoring system. The multivariate regression analysis included age, gender, body mass index and intraoperative parameters that correlated with satisfaction scores in the univariate analysis (P < 0.05). The current study focused on the patient satisfaction score at 1 year postoperatively and didn't evaluate the long term clinical results nor survivorship. RESULTS: The postoperative satisfaction score was 28.6 ± 8.1. Multivariate analysis showed that medial joint laxity at 30° flexion (P = 0.003), tibial excessive external rotation alignment (P = 0,009) and tibial varus alignment (P = 0.029) were predictors of poor satisfaction score. CONCLUSIONS: When performing BCS TKA, surgeons should pay attention to maintaining proper stability of the medial compartment at mid flexion range and should avoid tibial varus and excessive external rotational alignment.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: This study aims to elucidate and compare the relationship between the knee flexion angle and patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) in both non-weight-bearing (NWB) and weight-bearing (WB) conditions. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 61 knees (47 patients) who underwent total knee arthroplasty. The knee flexion angle was measured by three conditions: NWB in manual goniometer, NWB in fluoroscopic three-dimensional (3D) analysis and WB in the fluoroscopic 3D analysis. The PROM was evaluated by postoperative 2011 Knee Society Score (2011 KSS) and Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS). Correlations between the knee flexion angle and PROM was analyzed using Spearman's correlation coefficient. Additionally, whether the angular difference between NWB and WB correlated with the PROM or not was evaluated. RESULTS: The NWB knee flexion angle in a goniometer, NWB in 3D analysis, and WB in 3D analysis were 124.6° ± 8.4°, 118.0° ± 10.5°, and 109.5° ± 13.3°, respectively. The angular difference was 8.5° ± 12.8°. No PROM correlation existed in NWB using a goniometer. Moreover, significant positive correlations in 2011 KSS symptoms (r = 0.35) and 2011 KSS functional activities (r = 0.27) were noted in NWB using 3D analysis. Significant positive correlations existed in 2011 KSS symptoms (r = 0.32), 2011 KSS functional activities (r = 0.57), KOOS pain (r = 0.37), KOOS activity of daily living (ADL; r = 0.45), KOOS sports (r = 0.42), and KOOS quality of life (r = 0.36) in WB using 3D analysis. Significant negative correlations were noted in 2011 KSS functional activities (r = - 0.45), KOOS ADL (r = - 0.30), and KOOS sports (r = - 0.38) in angular difference. CONCLUSIONS: The WB knee flexion angle better correlated with PROM compared with NWB by evaluation of 3D analysis. The larger the angular difference existed between NWB and WB, the lower the PROM score.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Tibial internal rotation following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is important in achieving favorable postoperative clinical outcomes. Studies have reported the effect of intraoperative soft tissue balance on tibial internal rotation in conventional TKA, no studies have evaluated the effects of soft tissue balance at medial or lateral compartments separately on tibial internal rotation in bi-cruciate stabilized (BCS) TKA. The purpose of this study was to clarify the relationship between medial or lateral component gaps and rotational knee kinematics in BCS TKA. METHODS: One hundred fifty-eight knees that underwent BCS TKA were included in this study. The intraoperative medial and lateral joint laxities which was defined as the value of component gap minus the thickness of the tibial component were firstly divided into two groups, respectively: Group M-stable (medial joint laxity, ≤ 2 mm) or Group M-loose (medial joint laxity, ≥ 3 mm) and Group L-stable (lateral joint laxity, ≤ 3 mm) or Group L-loose (lateral joint laxity, ≥ 4 mm). And finally, the knees enrolled in this study were divided into four groups based on the combination of Group M and Group L: Group A (M-stable and L-stable), Group B (M-stable and L-loose), Group C (M-loose and L-stable), and Group D (M-loose and L-loose). The intraoperative rotational knee kinematics were compared between the four Groups at 0°, 30°, 60°, and 90° flexion, respectively. RESULTS: The rotational angular difference between 0° flexion and maximum flexion in Group B at 30° flexion was significantly larger than that in Group A at 30° flexion (*p < 0.05). The rotational angular difference between 30° flexion and maximum flexion in Group B at 30° flexion was significantly larger than that in Group D at 30° flexion (*p < 0.05). The rotational angular differences between 30° or 90° flexion and maximum flexion in Group B at 60° flexion were significantly larger than those in Group A at 60° flexion (*p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Surgeons should pay attention to the importance of medial joint stability at midflexion and lateral joint laxities at midflexion and 90° flexion on a good tibial internal rotation in BCS TKA.
