NCT03599180

Brief Summary

Based on the research background and the preliminary research basis of the research group, in order to answer the material basis and micro-physical environment change characteristics of knee osteoarthritis sensitization acupoints and provide scientific basis for in-depth study of sensitization of acupoints. This study plans to use knee osteoarthritis as a research vehicle, and use microdialysis combined with high performance liquid chromatography to analyze the local material basis and key indicators of common sensitization points in knee osteoarthritis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Serotonin concentration

    The serotonin concentration of KOA patients' sensitized acupoints was compared with that of the normal acupoints in healthy volunteers.

    2018-7-12---2020-7-1

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Histamine concentration

    2018-7-12---2020-7-1

  • Adenosine triphosphate concentration

    2018-7-12---2020-7-1

  • WOMAC score

    2018-7-12---2020-7-1

Study Population

A total of 32 KOA patients and 32 normal volunteers will be included

You may qualify if:

  • Meets the diagnosis criteria of knee osteoarthritis. Age between 45 and 70 years. Meets imaging examination X-ray Kellgren and Laerence classification standards grade I-III.
  • Patients who meet the criteria for early or mid-term stage of knee osteoarthritis.
