  • Ages 50 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: - In this retrospective study, between 10.01.2017 and 10.01.2022, the data of the patients between the ages of 50-80, who applied to Ufuk University Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation clinic with the complaint of knee pain and met the clinical criteria of the American Rheumatology Association for gonarthrosis and whose knee radiography and blood tests were evaluated at admission were scanned. In order to compare the parameters to be included in the study, the data and blood tests of patients between the ages of 50-80 who applied to Ufuk University Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation clinic between 10.01.2017 and 10.01.2022 for reasons other than knee pain were scanned.

Who may be able to join

  • In this retrospective study, between 10.01.2017 and 10.01.2022, the data of the patients between the ages of 50-80, who applied to Ufuk University Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation clinic with the complaint of knee pain and met the clinical criteria of the American Rheumatology Association for gonarthrosis (knee osteoarthritis) (knee pain on many days of the previous month, crepitation with active joint movement, morning stiffness lasting ≤ 30 minutes, age ≥38 years, bone enlargement of the knee on examination),and whose knee radiography and blood tests were evaluated at admission were scanned. In order to compare the parameters to be included in the study, the data and blood tests of patients between the ages of 50-80 who applied to Ufuk University Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation clinic between 10.01.2017 and 10.01.2022 for reasons other than knee pain were scanned.

Who cannot join

  • In the patient and control groups, patients who were younger than 50 years of age, older than 80 years of age, had acute or chronic infection, malignancy, rheumatic disease or systemic diseases that could change the blood test parameters to be evaluated, and patients who were missing one or more of the blood test parameters planned to be evaluated among the data obtained were excluded from the study. In addition, in the patient group, patients who had neurogenic or internal organ problems that could cause pain referred to the knees, who were not required to have a knee X-ray when applying to the outpatient clinic, and who had a history of trauma to the knee area, invasive procedure or surgical intervention within the 6 months before admission to the outpatient clinic, were excluded from the study. In the control group, patients who complained of knee pain in addition to their complaints at admission were excluded from the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gonarthrosis and Serum Albumin Low, run by Ufuk University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

serum albumin level (time frame: 1 month). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Dec 2023.
