ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the degree of limb dysfunction in adult patients with Kashin-Beck disease (KBD), and the correlation between clinical grade of KBD and physical disability classification.Methods:
Based on the monitoring data, using typical survey methods, 10 natural villages were selected as survey sites in the historical critical area of KBD in Heilongjiang Province in 2015. Patients over 40 years old with KBD were investigated by questionnaire, joint range of motion(ROM) examination, and X-ray film were performed. The degree of physical disability of the surveyed patients was evaluated according to the national standard of "Classification and Grading of Disability of the Disabled" (GB/T 26341-2010). The correlation between clinical classification of KBD and limb disability classification was analyzed.Results:
A total of 137 adult patients with KBD were investigated, the age was (57.4 ± 9.9) years old. Among them, 84 were males and 53 were females; 95 were grade Ⅰ, 30 were grade Ⅱ and 12 were grade Ⅲ. The most common joint pain of upper limb was interphalangeal joint(126 cases, 126/137), followed by elbow joint (116 cases, 116/137); the lower limbs were mainly ankle joint (118 cases, 118/137) and knee joint (107 cases, 107/137). There were significant differences of detection rates in elbow, knee, ankle, hip and wrist joints dysfunction among different age groups ( P < 0.05). The detection rate increased with age. There was no correlation between the clinical grade of KBD and the classification of physical disability ( rs = - 0.142, P > 0.05). KBD patients accounted for the highest proportion of tertiary disability (60 cases, 60/137). The physical disability of male patients was more serious than that of female patients (χ 2 = 22.610, P < 0.01).Conclusions:
In adults with KBD, interphalangeal joint pain is the most common in the upper limbs, and the ankle and knee joints are the most common in the lower limbs. There is no correlation between clinical grade of KBD and the level of physical disability. The degree of physical disability in male patients is higher than that in female patients.
