Chondromalacia Patellae
A degeneration of the ARTICULAR CARTILAGE of the PATELLA, caused by a decrease in sulfated MUCOPOLYSACCHARIDES in the ground substance. When accompanied by pain, it is sometimes considered part of or confused with PATELLOFEMORAL PAIN SYNDROME.
Patella
The flat, triangular bone situated at the anterior part of the KNEE.
Cartilage Diseases
Pathological processes involving the chondral tissue (CARTILAGE).
Joint Diseases
Flatfoot
A condition in which one or more of the arches of the foot have flattened out.
Knee Joint
A synovial hinge connection formed between the bones of the FEMUR; TIBIA; and PATELLA.
Cartilage, Articular
A protective layer of firm, flexible cartilage over the articulating ends of bones. It provides a smooth surface for joint movement, protecting the ends of long bones from wear at points of contact.
Integrin-Binding Sialoprotein
A highly glycosylated and sulfated phosphoprotein that is found almost exclusively in mineralized connective tissues. It is an extracellular matrix protein that binds to hydroxyapatite through polyglutamic acid sequences and mediates cell attachment through an RGD sequence.
Femur
The longest and largest bone of the skeleton, it is situated between the hip and the knee.
Joint Instability
Lack of stability of a joint or joint prosthesis. Factors involved are intra-articular disease and integrity of extra-articular structures such as joint capsule, ligaments, and muscles.
Collateral Ligaments
A number of ligaments on either side of, and serving as a radius of movement of, a joint having a hingelike movement. They occur at the elbow, knee, wrist, metacarpo- and metatarsophalangeal, proximal interphalangeal, and distal interphalangeal joints of the hands and feet. (Stedman, 25th ed)
Tracheobronchomalacia
A congenital or acquired condition of underdeveloped or degeneration of CARTILAGE in the TRACHEA and the BRONCHI. This results in a floppy non-rigid airway making patency difficult to maintain.
Arthroplasty, Subchondral
Surgical techniques used to correct or augment healing of chondral defects in the joints (CARTILAGE, ARTICULAR). These include abrasion, drilling, and microfracture of the subchondral bone to enhance chondral resurfacing via autografts, allografts, or cell transplantation.
Baseball
A competitive nine-member team sport including softball.
Arthroscopy
Endoscopic examination, therapy and surgery of the joint.
Knee Injuries
Injuries to the knee or the knee joint.
Patellar Ligament
A band of fibrous tissue that attaches the apex of the PATELLA to the lower part of the tubercle of the TIBIA. The ligament is actually the caudal continuation of the common tendon of the QUADRICEPS FEMORIS. The patella is embedded in that tendon. As such, the patellar ligament can be thought of as connecting the quadriceps femoris tendon to the tibia, and therefore it is sometimes called the patellar tendon.
Electronic Mail
Messages between computer users via COMPUTER COMMUNICATION NETWORKS. This feature duplicates most of the features of paper mail, such as forwarding, multiple copies, and attachments of images and other file types, but with a speed advantage. The term also refers to an individual message sent in this way.
Quadriceps Muscle
The quadriceps femoris. A collective name of the four-headed skeletal muscle of the thigh, comprised of the rectus femoris, vastus intermedius, vastus lateralis, and vastus medialis.
Tendons
Fibrous bands or cords of CONNECTIVE TISSUE at the ends of SKELETAL MUSCLE FIBERS that serve to attach the MUSCLES to bones and other structures.
Drama
A composition in prose or verse presenting in dialogue or pantomime a story involving various characters, usually intended to be acted on a stage and to be regarded as a form of entertainment. (From Random House Unabridged Dictionary, 2d ed)
Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome
A syndrome characterized by retropatellar or peripatellar PAIN resulting from physical and biochemical changes in the patellofemoral joint. The pain is most prominent when ascending or descending stairs, squatting, or sitting with flexed knees. There is a lack of consensus on the etiology and treatment. The syndrome is often confused with (or accompanied by) CHONDROMALACIA PATELLAE, the latter describing a pathological condition of the CARTILAGE and not a syndrome.
Connective Tissue Diseases
A heterogeneous group of disorders, some hereditary, others acquired, characterized by abnormal structure or function of one or more of the elements of connective tissue, i.e., collagen, elastin, or the mucopolysaccharides.
Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome
A heterogeneous group of autosomally inherited COLLAGEN DISEASES caused by defects in the synthesis or structure of FIBRILLAR COLLAGEN. There are numerous subtypes: classical, hypermobility, vascular, and others. Common clinical features include hyperextensible skin and joints, skin fragility and reduced wound healing capability.

Autologous chondrocyte implantation at the knee using a bilayer collagen membrane with bone graft. A preliminary report. (1/9)

Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) is a technique used for the treatment of symptomatic osteochondral defects of the knee. A variation of the original periosteum membrane technique is the matrix-induced autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI) technique. The MACI membrane consists of a porcine type-I/III collagen bilayer seeded with chondrocytes. Osteochondral defects deeper than 8 to 10 mm usually require bone grafting either before or at the time of transplantation of cartilage. We have used a variation of Peterson's ACI-periosteum sandwich technique using two MACI membranes with bone graft which avoids periosteal harvesting. The procedure is suture-free and requires less operating time and surgical exposure. We performed this MACI-sandwich technique on eight patients, five of whom were assessed at six months and one year post-operatively using the modified Cincinnati knee, the Stanmore functional rating and the visual analogue pain scores. All patients improved within six months with further improvement at one year. The clinical outcome was good or excellent in four after six months and one year. No significant graft-associated complications were observed. Our early results of the MACI-sandwich technique are encouraging although larger medium-term studies are required before there is widespread adoption of the technique.  (+info)

Second-look arthroscopy of cartilage changes of the patellofemoral joint, especially the patella, following acute and recurrent patellar dislocation. (2/9)

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to clarify some pathogenesis of the cartilage changes of the patellofemoral joint in patellar dislocation knees. METHODS: A first arthroscopy was performed in a total of 60 knees, including 30 knees of acute patellar dislocation (APD) and 30 knees of recurrent patellar dislocation (RPD). At the time of the first arthroscopy, 58 knees sustained open medial patellofemoral ligament repair/reconstruction, and 2 knees had only arthroscopy examination. In APD knees, the second-look arthroscopy was performed 16.7 months after the first arthroscopy, and in RPD knees, 25.2 months after the first arthroscopy. RESULTS: In most APD knees, cracking primarily on the central dome of the patella did not have a remarkable change but in several knees that had a high number of cracking or interlaced cracking, cracking became worse with fibrillation. Osteochondral defect site primarily on the medial facet showed fibrillation and/or ulceration (erosion). In most RPD knees, fissuring primarily on the central dome did not have a remarkable change, and fibrillation and/or erosion mainly on the medial facet also did not have a remarkable change. However, in four knees with the continuation of patellar dislocation, the patellar cartilage changes had definitely worsened. On the other hand, in the first and second-look arthroscopy, most APD and RPD knees had no remarkable cartilage lesions or cartilage changes of the femoro-trochlear aspect. CONCLUSIONS: One of the pathogenesis of fissuring in RPD knees seems to be cracking occurring at the time of APD. Two of the pathogenesis of fibrillation may result from the reparative reaction of the cartilage in osteochondral defect site and the cartilage change due to a high degree of cracking damage mainly on the central dome in APD injury. The continuation of patellar dislocation definitely makes the patellar cartilage lesions worse.  (+info)

Who is the ideal candidate for autologous chondrocyte implantation? (3/9)

We investigated the prognostic indicators for collagen-covered autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI-C) performed for symptomatic osteochondral defects of the knee. We analysed prospectively 199 patients for up to four years after surgery using the modified Cincinnati score. Arthroscopic assessment and biopsy of the neocartilage was also performed whenever possible. The favourable factors for ACI-C include younger patients with higher pre-operative modified Cincinnati scores, a less than two-year history of symptoms, a single defect, a defect on the trochlea or lateral femoral condyle and patients with fewer than two previous procedures on the index knee. Revision ACI-C in patients with previous ACI and mosaicplasties which had failed produced significantly inferior clinical results. Gender (p = 0.20) and the size of the defect (p = 0.97) did not significantly influence the outcome.  (+info)

Chondromalacia patellae treated by warming needle and rehabilitation training. (5/9)

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of warming needle combined with rehabilitation training on chondromalacia patellae in a randomized controlled trial. METHODS: The 92 cases were randomly divided into a treatment group treated by warming needle plus rehabilitation training (47 cases) and a control group treated by medication plus rehabilitation training (45 cases), and the therapeutic effect was compared after 20 sessions. RESULTS: The pain was relieved more obviously in the treatment group than in the control group (P < 0.05), and the total effective rate was 91.8% and 71.1% respectively (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Warming needle plus rehabilitation training was superior in the therapeutic effect and duration of producing relief of pain to medication plus rehabilitation training in treating chondromalacia patellae.  (+info)

Pain level: Mild to severe. Chondromalacia patella is a condition in which the cartilage underneath the kneecap wears down, typically due to the constant stress that occurs when runners repeatedly pound the pavement. Most people whove had some sort of athletic career when they were younger have a mild form of chondromalacia patella, says Holland.. There are varying levels of soreness associated with chondromalacia patella, from a mild ache when squatting to pain so severe that running is impossible. The pain is felt underneath the kneecap in a larger surface area than you see with patellofemoral pain syndrome, and you may occasionally hear crackling sounds.. In mild cases, physical therapy will help correct the issues and ease the pain, while severe cases typically call for cortisone injections or surgery. ...

Chondromalacia (otherwise known as chondromalacia patellae, anterior knee pain syndrome, patellofemoral disorder or runners knee) is caused by improper tracking of the kneecap over the femur. As a result, the cartilage under the kneecap becomes roughened and pain results when the knee is bent or straightened while bearing weight.

Regular exercise with Powerball® can help maintain muscle tone and health from finger to shoulder, thanks to its rhythmic movement and non-impact nature. When your muscles respond to the demands placed upon them from exercising with Powerball®, blood flow increases and joint health is promoted by stimulating the production of synovial fluid (the fluid that lubricates and nourishes joints). The gripping action required to hold Powerball® activates the finger flexor muscles and the wrist extensor muscles. Activating the wrist extensors prevents wrist flexion, thereby enhancing grip strength. With the wrist extensors activated by the gripping action, the rotatory movements necessary to maintain the gyroscopic movement of Powerball® exert forces on a wide range of muscles.. ...

6:00 am6:00 am
Episodic or lifelong knee pain is increasingly familiar to a greater number of people. Amongst young adults, the most common pain is of the lower fraction, just below the patella (knee cap), and towards the inner side of the knee. Clinically this is referred to as Prepatellar Bursitis, common diagnoses are; patella tendonitis, Osgood-shlatter disease, chondromalacia patellae or even plica syndrome.. Yet it is comforting to recognize that what manifested the same in its clinical stage is often treated the same, and non-invasively; surgery is only sponsored in the more extreme cases, and only when propped up with an initial exploratory arthroscopy. The common non-invasive treatment is referred to as RICE; Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation.. The proprioceptive idiom is a basic instrument of injury rehabilitation and sports specific training. Though the proprioceptive organ in humans still remains unsolved, many are in agreement that the phenomenon is endorsed at all levels and all body systems; ...

Abstract TP156: Robot-Guided Ankle and Knee Therapeutic Training Improves Motor Functions in Stroke | StrokeAbstract TP156: Robot-Guided Ankle and Knee Therapeutic Training Improves Motor Functions in Stroke | Stroke
Introduction: Stroke survivors develop substantial disability such as weakness, spasticity, increased stiffness, and reduced range of motion in lower limbs, contributing to reduced quality of life. It is important to stretch impaired ankle and knee to increase range of motion and reduce spasticity, and to conduct active movement training to improve balance and locomotion.. Hypothesis: We addressed the hypotheses that robot-aided ankle and knee training will reduce motor impairments and improve balance and gait functions, and the improvements will maintain to the 6-weeks follow-up.. Methods: Seven male stroke survivors participated in the robot-guided ankle and knee rehabilitation training using a pair of ankle and knee rehabilitation robots over 18 training sessions (3 sessions/week for 6 weeks). Three evaluations were done before and after training, and 6 weeks follow-up. Each session involved passive stretching under intelligent control and active movement training under real-time, audiovisual ...

Hepatic MR imaging: comparison of 2D and 3D gradient echo techniques - Semantic ScholarHepatic MR imaging: comparison of 2D and 3D gradient echo techniques - Semantic Scholar
Background: To compare fat-suppressed three-dimensional gradient echo (3D-GRE) and two-dimensional gradient echo (2D-GRE) techniques for hepatic magnetic resonance imaging. Methods: For 107 patients with suspected focal hepatic lesions, unenhanced 2D-GRE multislice in-phase and opposed-phase images and 3D-GRE images were obtained. Two radiologists independently and in random order reviewed the images. Quantitative analysis compared contrast-to-noise ratio (C/N) of liver masses and of the liver to spleen and signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of the liver. Subjective grading of lesion conspicuity, confidence for lesion detection, artifacts, and overall image quality were also evaluated. Results: Conspicuity and confidence for focal lesions was statistically significantly higher on 3D-GRE than on 2D-GRE images. Liver-to-spleen C/N was higher on 3D-GRE images than on in-phase and opposed-phase 2D-GRE images (p | 0.01). Liver S/N was higher on in-phase 2D-GRE images than on 3D-GRE and opposed-phase 2D-GRE images

I cant believe the kind of harassment she is getting. I promise you she is not the only 19 year old girl with a kid who has fun and drinks alcohol even though she is underage. She probably isnt even the only teen mother at that beach. If Maci were not on 16 and Pregnant or Teen Mom, she would not be getting the attention she is getting. There are plenty of mothers in their 20s and 30s who are still trying to relive their golden days. Does that make them terrible mothers? Maybe. Maybe not. But they dont get the negative attention simply because they didnt sign up for a t.v. show. In my opinion, those 20 and 30 year old mothers are the ones we need to be worried about. Maci, at the age of 19, is doing the things that every 19 year old does. Her age and natural maturity level tell her that partying and drinking is okay. Yes, she is a mother. Yes, she got pregnant as a teenager because it was her decision to lay down and spread her legs to a guy without protection. And yes, maybe doing what ...

Ive had it for a few years. If your doc prescribes physical therapy, you are going to concentrate on building the muscles in your inner thigh (these muscles support the alignment of the knee). The pain medicine, braces, etc. are just band aids. Only when I took working on muscle tone seriously did my symptoms subside. Also, do what you can to avoide significant weight gain. The dilemma is twofold if you do because 1. you are less likely to exercise and your muslce tone weakens, and 2. the additional weight makes it more difficult on your weight bearing joints, i.e. knees ...

The incidence and prevalence of chronic musculoskeletal pain disorders (MSDs) in the United States is rising at an unprecedented rate. With the paradigm shift of diseases affecting the human population in developed countries switching from infectious diseases to non-communicable diseases, the prevalence of chronic MSDs is steadily increasing. The Global Burden of Disease identified low back pain, neck pain, and other musculoskeletal conditions as three of the top ten leading causes for years lived with disability worldwide.1 According to a forthcoming report from the United States Bone and Joint Initiative2, more than 78% of people age 18 years and older who reported having a disabling condition named a musculoskeletal disorder. The updated report also said more than one-half of the US population who live with a musculoskeletal condition experience decreases in both their quality of life and ability to perform activities of daily living. This was especially true for those who have back pain or ...

What is Chondromalacia Patellae? - Lets Talk HealthWhat is Chondromalacia Patellae? - Lets Talk Health
Big name, small problem. Everyday problem. Everybodys problem. Chondromalacia patellae is the medical name of that knee problem, the knee pain you have after returning from a vacation in the mountains, or after that trek with friends, and also after that dance drama you staged for the school function. It may appear to be a complicated disease by the name of it, but it is so simple and innocuous a disease that most people would have cured themselves while they waited for the doctors appointment.. Technically speaking, the bones in our joints are covered with firm spongy layer of tissue called cartilage. This tissue takes the entire load that passes through the joint & cushions the bones against the impact. Because their essential purpose is to absorb the joint impact forces, they undergo repetitive wear & tear. Nature compensates for this by healing it as fast as it wears down. But sometimes, when we suddenly over exert our knees - like when we do on vacations, on treks and during dance ...

Postoperative evaluation of the knee after autologous chondrocyte implantation: What radiologists need to know | ScholarBank@NUSPostoperative evaluation of the knee after autologous chondrocyte implantation: What radiologists need to know | [email protected]
Articular cartilage lesions occur commonly. Cartilage is relatively avascular and is unable to self-repair. A chondral lesion may become symptomatic. It may lead to osteoarthritis and increased morbidity. The aim of cartilage repair is to restore hyaline cartilage. There are many types of cartilage repair surgery, most of which result in fibrocartilage repair tissue that is suboptimal. Autologous chondrocyte implantation has been shown to produce hyaline-type repair tissue. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is performed preoperatively to define the ulcer and postoperatively to evaluate the technical success of implantation and the state of cartilage healing and to identify potential complications. Features of the autologous chondrocyte implantation graft that are assessed include the degree of filling by repair tissue, its integration with native cartilage and subchondral bone, the character of the graft substance and surface, and the underlying bone. MR arthrography is superior to unenhanced MR ...

Anterior Knee Pain - Wakefield Orthopaedic ClinicAnterior Knee Pain - Wakefield Orthopaedic Clinic
Anterior knee pain is also known as chondromalacia patella, patellar chondritis, and patello-femoral syndrome.. Pain felt at the front of the knee is usually due to problems with the patello-femoral mechanism (the kneecap). It is usually caused by softening of the joint surface underneath the kneecap. This causes pain as the knee bends and straightens and is particularly noticeable when the kneecap is under most strain such as climbing or descending stairs, kneeling and squatting.. It most commonly affects young individuals and is more common in females. It frequently appears without any obvious cause such as injury or overuse..

Combining intensive group exercise with an educational-behavioral program can provide promising results in the management of patients with clinically stabilized ankylosing spondylitis (AS) on tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor treatment, say authors of an article available online April 1 in Journal of Rheumatology. Sixty-two outpatients (49 men, 13 women, mean age 47.5 ± 10.6 yrs) were randomized to rehabilitation plus an educational-behavioral (n = 20) program, to an educational-behavioral program only (n = 20), or to a control group (n = 22). The educational-behavioral program included 2 educational meetings and 12 rehabilitation exercise sessions (stretching, strengthening, chest and spine/hip joint flexibility exercises), which patients then performed at home. Outcome assessment at the end of rehabilitation training at 2 and 6 months was based on spinal pain intensity in the previous 4 weeks by self-report visual analog scale, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index (BASMI), Bath ...

Downloadable! This paper formulates an econometric framework for studying the impact of interventions on discrete outcomes when responses to treatment vary among observationally identical persons. Using a latent variable model that can be linked to well-posed economic models, we show how to define and interpret the average treatment effects, the average effect of treatment on the treated, the marginal treatment effect and the distribution of treatment effects for discrete outcomes. To estimate these parameters and the distribution of treatment effects, we formulate and estimate a discrete choice model with unobservables generated by a factor structure model. We apply our methods to evaluate the effect of Norwegian Vocational Rehabilitation training programs on employment outcomes for women. We find that applicants to these programs who participate in active training have a 4.6% higher employment rate than nonparticipants. When we control for the observable characteristics of applicants, we find that the

CNIB was incorporated on March 30, 1918[2] to provide food, clothing and sheltered residences for blind veterans returning from World War I as well as the 850 people blind by the Halifax Explosion in 1917,[3], the largest mass blinding in Canadian history.[4] It began with 27 employees serving 1,521 people who were blind, primarily in Toronto, with two home teachers providing rehabilitation training in other parts of Canada.[5]. During the 1920s, CNIB operated a job placement program with limited success, also creating jobs through its own factories, broom shops and concession stands. The organization also appointed a special nurse responsible for vision health and sight preservation.. In 1923, a Dominion Charter was obtained to establish a Home Nursery Hospital and Kindergarten for the Blind under 6 years of age in Ottawa.[6] Mothers of blind babies from any Province in the Dominion, were encouraged to place their charges in the Canadian Blind Babies Home Association for proper care and ...

NICE guidance is designed and developed for the NHS in England and is therefore not automatically applicable to Northern Ireland. On 1 July 2006 the Department established links with NICE whereby all technology appraisals and clinical guidelines published from that date are locally reviewed for applicability to Northern Ireland and, where appropriate, are endorsed for implementation in health and social care. THE LOCAL REVIEW DOES NOT REASSESS THE CLINICAL AND COST EVIDENCE USED BY NICE IN FORMING ITS ADVICE. This link has ensured that Northern Ireland has access to up-to-date, independent, professional, evidence-based guidance on the value of health care interventions.

A patella drill guide includes a base portion rotatably mounted on a bone-gripping component. A trial portion with a contoured articulation surface is above the base portion. The base portion and trial portion have aligned drill guide bores. The base portion and trial portion can be rotated together on the bone-gripping component to optimize the positions of the drill guide bores with respect to the patella surface, thereby optimizing the locations of the mounting pegs of the patella implant component on the patella to optimize the orientation of the patella implant component. The base and the bone-gripping component may be unitary so that the entire assembly rotates on the patella about the central longitudinal axis of the bone-gripping component.

The substance of the patellaThe substance of the patella
The substance of the patella The substance of the patella in older persons is quite hard and solid, notwithstanding Galens assertion that it is cartilaginous on the outside; 11 Marinus likewise, among other prominent anatomists, independently called it a cartilaginous bone and devoted a chapter to it in a book which he wrote, On Cartilaginous Bones. 12 These authors were perhaps thinking of the material of the tendons to which the patella is attached, which when boiled resembles soft cartilage, like the parts from which the sinewy heads of the muscles or the ligaments take their origin or into which they are inserted. But when the patella is properly cleaned of tendons 13 it is seen to be in no way cartilaginous, but quite solid and strong not only in humans but also in cattle, sheep, and other quadrupeds. Before their knee joint, as well, the Maker of things placed a patella, much longer and narrower than in humans, as in most birds it is wider and shorter. 14 ...

Memory Consolidation Sharp Wave Ripples Use Synaptic InhibitionMemory Consolidation Sharp Wave Ripples Use Synaptic Inhibition
When neurons oscillate in synchrony, their electrical activity adds together so that measurements of field potential can pick them up. SWRs are one of the most synchronous oscillations in the brain.. The name derives from their characteristic trace when measuring local field potential: the slow sharp waves have a triangular shape with ripples, or fast field oscillations, added on. SWRs have been suggested to play a key role in making memories permanent. In this study, the researchers wanted to identify whether ripples are caused by a temporal modulation of excitation or of inhibition at the synapse, the connection between neurons.. For Professor Jozsef Csicsvari, a pooling of expertise was crucial in answering this question: ...

Wild season calls for examining where contenders stand - NFL.comWild season calls for examining where contenders stand - NFL.com
Chiefs: The Chiefs have found a passing game in the last month to match their running attack and their home field makes them dangerous. They continue to improve and compete at the highest level. They are for real -- and when they have offensive balance and get the lead, their defense, especially at home, is even better. They seem to be peaking at the right time and will be a factor the next five games, three of which are at home. They have to play in San Diego and St. Louis in Weeks 14 and 15. If they take care of their homes games, they are a 10-win team. Welcome to the playoffs Kansas City.. Eagles: Philadelphia needs a fast field and they must play with a lead. When they get behind, their defense is not good enough to go toe-to-toe with anyone. Then they make mistakes, and also it brings Andy Reids inability to manage the game into play. Reid, for being a solid coach, really needs to outsource his game management and costs his team chances in big games. Style of play is critical to the ...
