Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the long-term therapeutic effect of hyaluronic acid on adults with Kashia-Beck disease and the applicability of the joint dysfunction index.Methods A cluster-randomized,starch tablets-controlled trial was carried out depending on the joint dysfunction index of assessment for therapeutic efficacy on Kashin-Beck disease and self-assessment by patients of the Treatment Effect of Kaschin Beck Disease in Criterion.A total of 99 adults with Kashia-Beck disease were randomly divided into two groups:treatment group including 50 patients were intra-articular injected hyaluronic acid in knee weekly for 4 weeks,and the control group including 49 patients were treated with oral starch tablets for 3 months,2 tablets each time,3 times a day.We carried out 48 months follow-up and assessed the applicability of Kashia-Beck disease with treatment of hyaluronic acid.Results The improvement rates of joint dysfunction index were 80.0％ (40/50),83.0％ (39/47),86.4％ (38/44),85.7％(36/42),80.0％(36/45),and 47.1％(16/34) for 1 week and 1,2,3,6,48 months in treatment group,respectively,which were significantly higher than those of corresponding control group 25.0％ (12/48),28.3％ (13/46),33.3％ (16/48),25.0％ (10/40),30.0％ (12/40),and 21.4％ (6/28),and the differences were statistically significant between corresponding groups (x2=29.744,28.236,17.762,30.665,21.537,4.406; all P ＜ 0.05).Before treatment,the treatment group and control group in the joint dysfunction index scores were 7.59 ± 1.82 and 6.89 ± 1.97(t =1.837,P ＞ 0.05),respectively.After treatment,1 month follow up of the treatment group and control group in the joint dysfunction index scores were 3.44 ± 1.71 and 5.55 ± 2.34(t =4.972,P ＜ 0.01),respectively; 6 months follow up were 3.46 ± 2.78 and 6.10 ± 1.83(t =5.102,P ＜ 0.01),respectively; 48 months follow up were 5.13 ± 2.88 and 6.81 ± 3.07(t =2.219,P ＜ 0.05),respectively.The satisfaction of 85.1％ (40/47) in treatment group was significantly higher than that of 60.9％(28/46) in control group (Z =-4.012,P ＜ 0.01).Kappa value between joint dysfunction index and the overall evaluation of the treatment group after treatment was 0.526,which belong to moderate intensity of consistent degree (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The therapeutic effect of intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid on adults with Kashia-Beck disease is significant and lasting,and the joint dysfunction index has better applicability to evaluate the long-term therapeutic effect.
