Osteoarthritis development after ACL reconstruction (ACLR) is not well understood. Investigators have examined associations between knee biomechanical alterations and quantitative MRI (qMRI) variables, reflective of cartilage health, 12–60 months following ACLR; however, none have done so early after surgery. As part of an exploratory study, 45 individuals (age, 23 ± 7 years) underwent motion analysis during walking and qMRI 3 months after ACLR. For each limb, peak knee adduction moment (pKAM) and peak knee flexion moment (pKFM) were determined using inverse dynamics and peak medial compartment force was calculated using a neuromusculoskeletal model. T2 relaxation times in the medial compartment and linear regressions were used to determine the associations between gait variables and deep and superficial cartilage T2 relaxation times in six regions. pKAM was positively associated with deep layer T2 relaxation times within the femoral central and posterior regions when examined in the involved limb and from an interlimb difference perspective (involved limb – uninvolved limb). After adjusting for age, the association between interlimb difference of pKAM and interlimb difference of deep layer T2 relaxation times in the tibial central region became significant (p = .043). Interlimb difference of pKFM was negatively associated with interlimb difference of deep layer T2 relaxation times within the femoral central and posterior regions. These associations suggest that degenerative pathways leading to osteoarthritis may be detectable as early as 3 months after reconstruction. Preventative therapeutic techniques may need to be employed early in the rehabilitation process to prevent cartilage degradation. 相似文献

While substantial work has been done to understand the relationships between cartilage T2 relaxation times and osteoarthritis (OA), diagnostic and prognostic abilities of T2 on a large population yet need to be established. Using 3921 manually annotated 2D multi‐slice multi‐echo spin‐echo magnetic resonance imaging volume, a segmentation model for automatic knee cartilage segmentation was built and evaluated. The optimized model was then used to calculate T2 values on the entire osteoarthritis initiative (OAI) dataset composed of longitudinal acquisitions of 4796 unique patients, 25 729 magnetic resonance imaging studies in total. Cross‐sectional relationships between T2 values, OA risk factors, radiographic OA, and pain were analyzed in the entire OAI dataset. The performance of T2 values in predicting the future incidence of radiographic OA as well as total knee replacement (TKR) were also explored. Automatic T2 values were comparable with manual ones. Significant associations between T2 relaxation times and demographic and clinical variables were found. Subjects in the highest 25% quartile of tibio‐femoral T2 values had a five times higher risk of radiographic OA incidence 2 years later. Elevation of medial femur T2 values was significantly associated with TKR after 5 years (coeff = 0.10; P = .036; CI = [0.01,0.20]). Our investigation reinforces the predictive value of T2 for future incidence OA and TKR. The inclusion of T2 averages from the automatic segmentation model improved several evaluation metrics when compared to only using demographic and clinical variables. 相似文献

We assessed the relationship between cartilage MR relaxation times and biomechanical response of tibiofemoral articular cartilage to physiological loading in healthy subjects and patients with osteoarthritis (OA). Female subjects above 40 years of age with (N1 = 20) and without (N2 = 10) OA were imaged on a 3T MR scanner using a custom made loading device. MR images were acquired with the knee flexed at 20° with and without a compressive load of 50% of the subject's bodyweight. The subjects were categorized based on the clinical MRI scoring of medial and lateral cartilage surfaces. Data were stratified twice into two equal groups (low and high) at the median value of T1ρ and T2 relaxation time. The change in contact area and cartilage deformation was measured within these groups. Paired Student's t‐test (α = 0.05) was used to analyze the effect of loading on contact area and deformation. The average area of the contact region in the medial compartment was significantly higher in OA subjects compared with normal subjects in both unloaded (314 ± 112 mm2 vs. 227 ± 106 mm2, p = 0.023) and loaded (425 ± 128 mm2 vs. 316 ± 107 mm2, p = 0.01) conditions. The overall relative change of cartilage thickness in the medial compartment was significantly higher than the lateral compartment (?5.3 ± 9.9% vs. ?1.9 ± 9.2%, p = 0.042). When cartilage was divided into deep and superficial layers, superficial layers showed higher changes in relaxation time (T1ρ and T2) than the changes in relaxation time of whole cartilage (Normal: 12.5% vs. 6.9%; OA: 10.9% vs. 4.6%). The average T1ρ and T2 times, change in area of contact region, and change in cartilage thickness in subjects with OA were higher when compared to normal subjects. This study provides support for a relationship between the mechanical response of cartilage to physiological loading (cartilage‐on‐cartilage contact area and cartilage deformation) and MR relaxation times (T1ρ and T2) in both OA patients and normal subjects. © 2011 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a major degenerative joint disease characterized by progressive loss of articular cartilage, synovitis, subchondral bone changes, and osteophyte formation. Currently there is no treatment for OA except temporary pain relief and end‐stage joint replacement surgery. We performed a pilot study to determine the effect of kartogenin (KGN, a small molecule) on both cartilage and subchondral bone in a rat model of OA using multimodal imaging techniques. OA was induced in rats (OA and KGN treatment group) by anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) surgery in the right knee joint. Sham surgery was performed on the right knee joint of control group rats. KGN group rats received weekly intra‐articular injection of 125 μM KGN 1 week after surgery until week 12. All rats underwent in vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 3, 6, and 12 weeks after surgery. Quantitative MR relaxation measures (T1ρ and T2) were determined to evaluate changes in articular cartilage. Cartilage and bone turnover markers (COMP and CTX‐I) were determined at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 weeks. Animals were sacrificed at week 12 and the knee joints were removed for micro‐computed tomography (micro‐CT) and histology. KGN treatment significantly lowered the T1ρ and T2 relaxation times indicating decreased cartilage degradation. KGN treatment significantly decreased COMP and CTX‐I levels indicating decreased cartilage and bone turnover rate. KGN treatment also prevented subchondral bone changes in the ACLT rat model of OA. Thus, kartogenin is a potential drug to prevent joint deterioration in post‐traumatic OA. © 2016 Orthopaedic Research Society. Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The objective of this study is to examine the local relationship between T1ρ relaxation times and the mechanical behavior of human osteoarthritic articular cartilage using high‐resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and local in situ microindentation. Seven human tibial plateaus were obtained from patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty due to severe osteoarthritis (OA). Three to six sites were selected from each sample for visual classification using the ICRS Outerbridge scale (a total of 36 sites). Samples were imaged by MR, and the local distribution of T1ρ relaxation times were obtained at these selected sites. The elastic and viscoelastic characteristics of the tissue were quantified nondestructively using dynamic microindentation to measure peak dynamic modulus, energy dissipation, and phase angle. Measured Outerbridge scores, MR T1ρ relaxation times, and mechanical properties were highly heterogeneous across each cartilage surface. Site‐specific measures of T1ρ relaxation times correlated significantly with the phase angle (p < 0.001; R = 0.908), a viscoelastic mechanical behavior of the cartilage. The novel combination of high‐resolution MR imaging and microindentation allows the investigation of the local relationship between quantitative MRI and biomechanical properties in highly heterogeneous OA cartilage. These findings suggest that MRI T1ρ can provide a functional assessment of articular cartilage. © 2011 Orthopaedic Research Society Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

T1ρ and T2 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may allow for a noninvasive assessment of ligamentization after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. We hypothesized that ACL graft T1ρ and T2 relaxation times would decrease over time, that T1ρ and T2 relaxation times would be inversely correlated with Knee Osteoarthritis Outcome Scores (KOOS), and that T1ρ and T2 values would be lower for autograft relative to allograft reconstruction. Thirty-nine patients (age: 30.5 ± 8.2 years) were followed prospectively after ACL reconstruction with hamstring autograft (N = 27) or soft-tissue allograft (N = 12). Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and KOOS surveys were completed at 6, 12, 24, and 36 months after surgery. ACL graft was segmented to define T1ρ and T2 relaxation times. Relaxation times were compared between time points with ANOVA tests. Log-transformed autograft and allograft relaxation times were compared with the Student t tests. The relationship between KOOS and relaxation times at 24 months was investigated with Spearman's rank correlation. ACL graft T1ρ relaxation times were significantly higher at 6 months relative to 12 months (P = .042), 24 months (P < .001), and 36 months (P < .001). ACL graft T2 relaxation times were significantly higher at 6 months relative to 12 months (P = .036), 24 months (P < .001), and 36 months (P < .001). T1ρ and T2 relaxation times were significantly lower for autograft reconstruction vs allograft reconstruction at 24 months postreconstruction. Two-year KOOS Sports, Pain, and Symptoms were significantly inversely correlated with T1ρ and T2 relaxation times. T1ρ and T2 sequences may offer a noninvasive method for monitoring ACL graft maturation that correlates with patient-reported knee function after ACL reconstruction. 相似文献

The sulcus angle has been widely used in the literature as a measure of trochlear morphology. Recently, lateral trochlear inclination and trochlear angle have been reported as alternatives. The purpose of this study was to determine the association between measures of trochlear morphology and patellofemoral joint (PFJ) cartilage damage and bone marrow lesions (BMLs). Nine hundred seven knees were selected from the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study, a cohort study of persons aged 50–79 years with or at risk for knee OA. Trochlear morphology was measured using lateral trochlear inclination, trochlear angle, and sulcus angle on axial MRI images; cartilage damage and BMLs were graded on MRI. We determined the association between quartiles of each trochlear morphology variable with the presence or absence of cartilage damage and BMLs in the PFJ using logistic regression. The strongest associations were seen with lateral trochlear inclination and lateral PFJ cartilage damage and BMLs, with knees in the lowest quartile (flattened lateral trochlea) having more than two times the odds of lateral cartilage damage and BMLs compared to those in the highest quartile (p < 0.0001). Lateral trochlear inclination may be the best method for assessment of trochlear morphology as it was strongly association with structural damage in the PFJ. © 2011 Orthopaedic Research Society Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This study assessed the effects of static loading on MRI relaxation times of menisci in individuals with and without radiographic knee OA. High‐resolution fast spin‐echo (FSE) and T1ρ/T2 relaxation time MR sequences were obtained with and without loading at 50% body weight in 124 subjects. T1ρ/T2 relaxation times were calculated in menisci, and meniscus lesions were assessed through clinical grading. Student's t‐test compared OA and control unloaded relaxation times as well as within‐group changes with loading, Generalized Linear Models evaluated zonal variation, and ANCOVA compared loading response between groups. Unloaded T1ρ and T2 in the middle and inner zones of the lateral anterior horn and outer zone of the medial posterior horn were significantly higher in OA and suggest that meniscal OA change occurs unevenly. Zonal T1ρ and T2 showed differing patterns between anterior and posterior horns, suggesting differences in macromolecular organization. Significant increases with loading were seen largely in the T2 of controls and less frequently in subjects with OA. In the medial posterior horn, T1ρ and T2 decreased with loading in OA but changed negligibly in controls; these significantly different loading responses between groups may indicate load transmission failure in OA menisci. © 2015 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) morphology and Hoffa-synovitis may be relevant to the development and progression of post-traumatic osteoarthritis (OA). We aimed to compare IPFP volume and Hoffa-synovitis in participants with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and uninjured controls, and to determine their association with prevalent and worsening early knee OA features and pain in participants post-ACLR. We assessed IPFP volume and Hoffa-synovitis from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in 111 participants 1-year post-ACLR and 20 uninjured controls. Patellofemoral and tibiofemoral cartilage and bone marrow lesions (BMLs) were assessed from MRIs at 1 and 5 years post-ACLR, and worsening defined as any longitudinal increase in lesion size/severity. IPFP volume and Hoffa-synovitis prevalence were compared between groups with analysis of covariance and χ 2 tests, respectively. Generalized linear models assessed the relation of IPFP volume and Hoffa-synovitis to prevalent and worsening features of OA and knee pain (Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score—Pain Subscale, Anterior Knee Pain Scale). No significant between-group differences were observed in IPFP volume (ACLR 34.39 ± 7.29cm3, Control 34.27 ± 7.56cm3) and Hoffa-synovitis (ACLR 61%, Control 80%). Greater IPFP volume at 1-year post-ACLR was associated with greater odds of patellofemoral BMLs at 1-year (odds ratio [OR] [95% confidence intervals]: 1.104 [1.016, 1.200]) and worsening tibiofemoral cartilage lesions at 5-year post-ACLR (OR: 1.234 [1.026, 1.483]). Hoffa-synovitis at 1-year post-ACLR was associated with greater odds of worsening patellofemoral BMLs at 5-year post-ACLR (OR: 7.465 [1.291, 43.169]). In conclusion, IPFP volume and Hoffa-synovitis prevalence are similar between individuals 1-year post-ACLR and controls. Greater IPFP volume and Hoffa-synovitis appear to be associated with the presence and worsening of some early OA features in those post-ACLR, but not pain. 相似文献

Osteoarthritis (OA) is prevalent after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, but mechanismsunderlying its development are poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to determine if gait biomechanics and daily physical activity (PA) associate with cartilage T2 relaxation times, a marker of collagen organization and water content, 1 month after ACL injury. Twenty-seven participants (15–35 years old) without chondral lesions completed magnetic resonance imaging, three-dimensional gait analysis, and 1 week of PA accelerometry. Interlimb differences and ratios were calculated for gait biomechanics and T2 relaxation times, respectively. Multiple linear regression models adjusted for age, sex, and concomitant meniscus injury were used to determine the association between gait biomechanics and PA with T2 relaxation times, respectively. Altered knee adduction moment (KAM) impulse, less knee flexion excursion (kEXC) and higher daily step counts accounted for 35.8%–65.8% of T2 relaxation time variation in the weightbearing and posterior cartilage of the medial and lateral compartment (all p ≤ .011). KAM impulse was the strongest factor for T2 relaxation times in all models (all p ≤ .001). Lower KAM impulse associated with longer T2 relaxation times in the injured medial compartment (β = ?.720 to ?.901) and shorter T2 relaxation in the lateral compartment (β = .713 to .956). At 1 month after ACL injury, altered KAM impulse, less kEXC, and higher PA associated with longer T2 relaxation times, which may indicate poorer cartilage health. Statement of Clinical Significance: Gait biomechanics and daily PA are modifiable targets that may improve cartilage health acutely after ACL injury and slow progression to OA. 相似文献

This study investigated associations between changes in the total joint moment (TJM) at the knee and changes in cartilage thickness after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Seventeen subjects (five males; age: 29.6 ± 7.3 years) with unilateral ACLR underwent gait analysis and magnetic resonance imaging at baseline (2.2 ± 0.3 years post‐ACLR) and at long‐term follow‐up (7.7 ± 0.7 years post‐ACLR). Knee loading was assessed using the TJM, and differences in loading were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance. Pearson correlation coefficients assessed associations between changes in TJM and changes in (medial‐to‐lateral) M/L femoral cartilage thickness ratios in the ACLR limb. Bilaterally, there was no significant change in the magnitude of the TJM first peak (TJM1), however, there was a significant increase in the percent contribution of the knee flexion moment (KFM) (p < 0.001) and decrease in the percent contribution of the knee adduction moment (KAM) to TJM1 (p < 0.001). The change in the percent contributions of KFM and KAM to TJM1 were associated with changes in M/L femoral cartilage thickness in the ACLR limb. Specifically, subjects with smaller increases in KFM contribution (R = 0.521, p = 0.032) and smaller decreases in KAM contribution (R = ?0.521, p = 0.032) had a reduction in the M/L ratio in the central femoral subregion over the follow‐up period, with similar trends in the external femoral subregion. The study results provide new insight into changes in the loading environment at the knee joint prospectively following ACL reconstruction and give evidence that there are modifiable gait metrics that are associated with cartilage changes after ACLR. © 2019 Orthopaedic Research Society.

OBJECTIVE: The patellofemoral joint is an example of an incongruent articulation commonly affected by osteoarthritis (OA). The relationship between femoral sulcus angle and the development and progression of patellofemoral OA is unclear. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between the femoral sulcus angle at baseline and patella cartilage volume at baseline and at 2-year follow-up among community based adults with established knee OA. METHODS: One hundred subjects had magnetic resonance imaging of their symptomatic knee at baseline and at 2-year follow-up. From these images, patella cartilage volume was determined. Radiographic skyline views of the patellofemoral joint were taken at baseline to measure the femoral sulcus angle. RESULTS: For every 1 degrees increase in the femoral sulcus angle (i.e., as the sulcus angle became more shallow) there was an associated 9.1mm3 (95% CI 3.1, 15.0) increase in medial patella cartilage volume at baseline (P=0.003). There was a similar trend that approached statistical significance between the femoral sulcus angle and the lateral patella facet cartilage volume at baseline (P=0.09). There was no association between the femoral sulcus angle at baseline and the change in patella cartilage volume over 2 years in either patellofemoral compartment. CONCLUSION: These results infer that the femoral sulcus angle is a cross-sectional determinant of the amount of patella cartilage, but is not a major determinant of the annual change of patella cartilage volume among people with knee OA. These data suggest that a shallower sulcus in the context of established OA may be an advantageous anatomical variant. Further longitudinal studies are required to determine the role of the femoral sulcus angle in OA. 相似文献

In this study, the rabbit model with anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) was used to investigate early degenerative changes in cartilage using multiparametric quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (qMRI). ACLT was surgically induced in the knees of skeletally mature New Zealand White rabbits (n = 14). ACL transected and contralateral knee compartments—medial femur, lateral femur, medial tibia, and lateral tibia—were harvested 2 (n = 8) and 8 weeks (n = 6) postsurgery. Twelve age-matched nonoperated rabbits served as control. qMRI was conducted at 9.4 T and included relaxation times T1, T2, continuous-wave T1ρ (CWT1ρ), adiabatic T1ρ (AdT1ρ), adiabatic T2ρ (AdT2ρ), and relaxation along a fictitious field (TRAFF). For reference, quantitative histology and biomechanical measurements were carried out. Posttraumatic changes were primarily noted in the superficial half of the cartilage. Prolonged T1, T2, CWT1ρ, and AdT1ρ were observed in the lateral femur 2 and 8 weeks post-ACLT, compared with the corresponding control and contralateral groups (P < .05). Collagen orientation was significantly altered in the lateral femur at 2 weeks post-ACLT compared with the corresponding control group. In the medial femur, all the studied relaxation time parameters, except TRAFF, were increased 8 weeks post-ACLT, as compared with the corresponding contralateral and control groups (P < .05). Similarly, significant proteoglycan loss was observed in the medial femur at 8 weeks following surgery (P < .05). Multiparametric MRI demonstrated early degenerative changes primarily in the superficial cartilage with T1, T2, CWT1ρ, and AdT1ρ sensitive to cartilage changes at 2 weeks after surgery. 相似文献

Objectives Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent chronic disease in the elderly, and it is generally diagnosed at an advanced state when treatment is difficult if not impossible. The early form of OA is characterized by an elevated water content in the cartilage tissue. The purpose of this study was to verify in vivo if changes in the water content of patellar cartilage typically occurring in early OA can be detected using T2 mapping MRI methods.Design Twenty healthy volunteers performed 60 knee bends in order to compress their patellar cartilage thereby reducing its water content. MR images of the patellar cartilage were acquired immediately following exercise and after 45 min of rest. Patellar cartilage thickness and T2 maps were determined and their difference between the time points evaluated.Results Cartilage thickness increased by 5.4±1.5% from 2.94±0.15 mm to 3.10±0.15 mm (P< 0.001) following 45 min of rest, while T2 increased by 2.6±1.0% from 23.1±0.5 ms to 23.7±0.6 ms (P< 0.05).Conclusion Small, physiologic changes in the water content of patellar cartilage and the concomitant change in proteoglycan and collagen density following exercise can be detected using MRI. The proposed T2-mapping method, together with other non-invasive MR cartilage imaging techniques, could aid in the early diagnosis of OA. Copyright 2002 OsteoArthritis Research Society International.

To identify radiographic and MR features of hip osteoarthritis (OA) related to reduced hip extension during walking. Sixty six subjects, were stratified into those with (n = 36, KL = 2, 3) and without (n = 30, KL = 0, 1) radiographic hip OA. Cartilage and labrum lesions were graded semi‐quantitatively on hip MRI. Alpha angle and lateral center edge (LCE) angle were measured. Sagittal kinematics and kinetics were calculated during walking at speed of 1.35 m/s using 3‐D motion capture. All subjects completed Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), timed up and go, and 6 min walk tests. Variables were compared between the two groups using one‐way ANOVA (adjusting for age). Correlations of radiographic and MR parameters with peak hip extension were calculated. The OA group was older, had greater pain, and limitation of function. They also had lower peak hip extension and higher peak hip flexion; and worse acetabular and femoral cartilage lesions. Peak hip extension and flexion correlated with KL grade, cartilage lesions in the inferior and posterior femur. Reduced hip extension and greater hip flexion during walking are present in high functioning (HOOS > 85%) individuals with mild‐moderate hip OA, and are associated with cartilage lesions. © 2015 Orthopaedic Research Society.

High-impact exercise can improve femoral neck bone mass but findings in postmenopausal women have been inconsistent and there may be concern at the effects of high-impact exercise on joint health. We investigated the effects of a high-impact exercise intervention on bone mineral density (BMD), bone mineral content (BMC), and section modulus (Z) as well as imaging biomarkers of osteoarthritis (OA) in healthy postmenopausal women. Forty-two women aged 55 to 70 years who were at least 12 months postmenopausal were recruited. The 6-month intervention consisted of progressive, unilateral, high-impact exercise incorporating multidirectional hops on one randomly assigned exercise leg (EL) for comparison with the contralateral control leg (CL). Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to measure BMD, BMC, and Z of the femoral neck. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the knee joint was used to analyze the biochemical composition of articular cartilage using T2 relaxometry and to analyze joint pathology associated with OA using semiquantitative analysis. Thirty-five participants (61.7 ± 4.3 years) completed the intervention with a mean adherence of 76.8% ± 22.5%. Femoral neck BMD, BMC, and Z all increased in the EL (+0.81%, +0.69%, and +3.18%, respectively) compared to decreases in the CL (−0.57%, −0.71%, and −0.75%: all interaction effects p < 0.05). There was a significant increase in mean T2 relaxation times (main effect of time p = 0.011) but this did not differ between the EL and CL, indicating no global effect. Semiquantitative analysis showed high prevalence of bone marrow lesions (BML) and cartilage defects, especially in the patellofemoral joint (PFJ), with no indication that the intervention caused pathology progression. In conclusion, a high-impact exercise intervention that requires little time, cost, or specialist equipment improved femoral neck BMD with no negative effects on knee OA imaging biomarkers. Unilateral high-impact exercise is a feasible intervention to reduce hip fracture risk in healthy postmenopausal women. © 2019 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research. 相似文献
