Popis: | Degenerative osteoarthritis (OA) has been associated with elevated synovial fluid cytokines. It is unclear whether traumatic knee injuries are a trigger to the chemical process that leads to OA. The purpose of this study was to compare the synovial fluid cytokine levels between knees undergoing arthroscopy due to a documented inciting injury and knees undergoing primary arthroplasty due to end-stage OA without a previous inciting injury. Synovial fluid samples were prospectively collected from knees undergoing arthroscopic surgeries due to ligamentous or meniscal knee injuries (knee injury group, n = 16) and primary arthroplasty due to OA (end-stage OA group, n = 14). In the knee injury group, patients had none or minimal OA and at least 30 days from the inciting injury. Exclusion criteria for both groups included inflammatory arthropathy (n = 1) and insufficient fluid for analysis (n = 1). In addition to synovial fluid cytokines, preoperative demographic, clinical, and functional data (Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score [KOOS]) were collected and compared between the groups. The end-stage OA group had higher age (p |
