June 8, 2021 updated by: Hongyu Wang, The First People's Hospital of Jingzhou

First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical Universtiy

Studies have suggested that Obese patients with metabolic syndrome(MetS)were correlated with knee joint degeneration and osteoarthritis. However, no studies demonstrate the relationship between obese patients with metabolic syndrome and degenerate meniscus lesions and its knee function.The aim is to detect the correlation between obese patients with metabolic syndrome and degenerate meniscus injuries.

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Obese patients with metabolic syndrome(MetS)were correlated with knee joint degeneration and osteoarthritis. However, no studies demonstrate the relationship between patients with metabolic syndrome and degenerate meniscus lesions or knee function. Participants were recruited from First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University. 100 BMI<24 people without Metabolic syndrome volunteers aged between 35-70 years old and 80 Metabolic syndrome patients with BMI>27 were included in the study. Obese patients with MetS were assessed knee function and degenerate meniscus tears verified by magnetic resonance imaging. And patients with a mild or no osteoarthritis with Kellgren and Lawrence grade<2 verified by X ray. We tested the relationship between metabolic syndrome and degenerate meniscus lesions. Obese patients with MetS and volunteers were detected by Mcmurry's test and MRI image to measure degeneration grade of meniscus tears. Number of MetS components were accounted and the knee function KOOS, IKDC score or degenerate meniscus tears were analyzed.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) total
Time Frame: up to 12 month
The Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) holds five subscales including: Pain (9 items); other Symptoms (7 items); Activities of Daily Living (ADL, 17 items); Sport and Recreation function (Sport/Rec, 5 items); and knee-related Quality of Life (QoL, 4 items). Each subscale is scored separately from zero (extreme knee problems) to 100 (no knee problems).
up to 12 month
The International Knee Documentation Committee Subjective Knee Evaluation Form (IKDC) score
Time Frame: up to 12 month
The International Knee Documentation Committee Subjective Knee Evaluation Form (IKDC) score to determine the meniscus function. The IKDC is a questionnaire that has high reliability and validity for patients with a meniscal tear[36, 37] [38]. The questionnaire contains 18 items (7 items for symptoms, 1 item for sport activity, 9 items for daily activities, and 1 item for current knee function.) The total score is transformed to a value on a scale of 0 to 100, with 100 representing the highest knee function and 0 is the worst.
up to 12 month

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure

Symptoms including 7 items,The minimum value is 0 and maximum values subscale is 100. Each subscale is scored separately from zero (extreme knee problems) to 100 (no knee problems)
up to 12 month
Activities of Daily Living subscale
Time Frame: up to 12 month
Activities of Daily Living including 17 items,The minimum value is 0 and maximum values subscale is100. Each subscale is scored separately from zero (extreme knee problems) to 100 (no knee problems).

Time Frame: up to 12 month
Sport and Recreation function including 5 items,The minimum value is 0 and maximum values subscale is 100. Each subscale is scored separately from zero (extreme knee problems) to 100 (no knee problems).
up to 12 month
knee-related Quality of Life subscale
Time Frame: up to 12 month
knee-related Quality of Life including 4 items,The minimum value is 0 and maximum values subscale is 100. Each subscale is scored separately from zero (extreme knee problems) to 100 (no knee problems).
up to 12 month
KOOS4
Time Frame: up to 12 month
KOOS4, The minimum value is 0 and maximum values subscale is100. KOOS4 defined as the average score for four of the five knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) validity for patients with meniscal tears and osteoarthritis.
