The Long-term Efficacy of Total Knee Arthroplasty on End-stage Kashin-Beck Disease of the Knee in Highland Tibetan Areas Patients: A Retrospective Study with 10-Year Follow-up. Orthop Surg 2024; 16:1300-1307. [PMID: 38644516 PMCID: PMC11144507 DOI: 10.1111/os.14068] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 03/31/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Despite the established success of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with end-stage osteoarthritis, there is a notable scarcity of research on its long-term outcomes in individuals suffering from end-stage Kashin-Beck disease (KBD). This retrospective study aimed to assess the long-term outcomes and effectiveness of clinical function, quality of life, and complications of TKA and end-stage KBD patients in Tibetan highland areas. METHODS The retrospective cohort included 43 KBD patients, comprising a total of 59 knees, who had undergone TKA at West China Hospital, Sichuan University between 2008 and 2021. Patients were subsequently followed up for a minimum of 3 years, and received rigorous radiological and clinical assessments at 3, 6, and 12 months post surgery, followed by annual examinations thereafter. The evaluation included various efficacy indices, including visual analogue scale (VAS) scores, hospital for special surgery (HSS) scores, functional score for adult Tibetans with Kashin-Beck disease (FSAT-KBD), and radiographic findings. Comparison of indicators within the same group was conducted using one-way repeated-measures analysis of variance or paired sample t-tests, whereas between-group differences were compared using an independent t-test. RESULTS Throughout the average follow-up duration of 10.8 years, patients experienced a substantial reduction in knee pain and noteworthy functional improvement. The VAS scores decreased significantly from 77.47 ± 4.12 mm before surgery to 10.91 ± 1.97 mm after surgery, indicating considerable alleviation of knee pain. The HSS scores improved markedly, increasing from 44.26 ± 4.95 preoperatively to 91.26 ± 4.37, indicating enhanced joint function. Similarly, the FSAT-KBD exhibited positive progression, increasing from 25.90 ± 3.12 to 36.95 ± 3.54. Importantly, at the last follow-up, none of the patients presented with periprosthetic infection, prosthesis loosening, or periprosthetic fracture. CONCLUSION At long-term follow-up, compared with patients in the preoperative period, patients in Tibetan highland areas with KBD of the knee who underwent TKA benefited from a significant reduction in pain, improvement in joint function, and satisfactory improvement in quality of life.

Orthop Surg 2022; 14:3441-3447. [PMID: 36220786 PMCID: PMC9732621 DOI: 10.1111/os.13520] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2021] [Revised: 08/14/2022] [Accepted: 08/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic, chronic osteoarthropathy that seriously affects joint function and can lead to severe knee deformity. Osteotomy is considered to be one of the effective methods for the treatment of this disease. Therefore, we designed a novel type of osteotomy named combined proximal tibial osteotomy (CPTO), which combines the characteristics of opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy and tibial condylar valgus osteotomy. CASE PRESENTATION We report the case of a 48-year-old male with knee pain and varus deformity who was diagnosed with KBD and varus knee osteoarthritis (Kellgren-Lawrence stage IV). Considering the patient's relatively young age, a varus deformity of the right knee of 16.79°, and an intra-articular instability, we performed a CPTO treatment. In this procedure, we performed an L-shaped osteotomy from the medial edge of the proximal tibia to the intercondylar eminence and an osteotomy from the medial side of the proximal tibia to the lateral side through the same incision, to adjust the leg alignment and the congruity of the joint by valgus correction. At 29 months follow-up, this patient achieved satisfactory results, with a varus right knee of 2.87°. There was significant improvement in his right knee function, pain, and joint stability. CONCLUSIONS CPTO may be an acceptable treatment for KBD patients with severe knee varus deformity and intra-articular instability. It can be considered as an alternative treatment, especially for patients with advanced osteoarthritis needing knee preservation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic osteoarthropathy, and the severe knee pain and functional limitations were seriously affecting the quality of life in patients with end-stage KBD. We retrospectively evaluated the clinical outcomes and the quality of life in KBD patients with total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS A total of 22 subjects (25 knees) suffered KBD with severe knee pain and underwent primary TKA. Knee pain was measured by visual analogue scale (VAS), and the knee function was evaluated by Knee Society Clinical Rating System Score (KSS). KBD Quality of Life (KBDQOL) was used to evaluate the quality of life in KBD patients before and after TKA. RESULTS There were no major complications after TKA. The levels of VAS score were obviously deceased in post-operation than that in pre-operation. The levels of KSS score were increased in one year after TKA compared with the pre-operative values, and it maintained a higher level on three years after TKA. The average KBDQOL score level of each domain in pre-operation and one and three years after TKA was increased accordingly. The average scores of physical function, activity limitation, support of society, mental health, and general health in one year after TKA were significantly higher than those in pre-operation. CONCLUSIONS TKA can reduce knee pain, improve knee function, and improve the quality life in KBD patients. KBDQOL questionnaire may be a promising instrument for assessing the quality life in KBD patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effectiveness of five kinds of selenium supplementation for the treatment of patients with Kashin-Beck disease, and rank these selenium supplementations based on their performance. DESIGN We searched for all publications between 1 January 1966 and 31 March 2017 using seven electronic databases. GRADE system to network meta-analyses (NMAs) was applied to rate the quality of the evidence. We conducted a random effects model NMA in STATA 12.1 to determine comparative effectiveness of each intervention. Rankings were obtained by using the surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) values and mean ranks. RESULTS A total of 15 randomised controlled trials involving 2931 patients were included. After assessment of the overall quality of the evidence, we downgraded our primary outcomes from high to low or very low quality. NMAs showed that all five kinds of selenium supplementation had higher metaphysis X-ray improvement which were superior to placebo. Ranking on efficacy indicated that selenium salt was ranked the highest, followed by sodium selenite + vitamin E, selenium enriched yeast, sodium selenite and then sodium selenite + vitamin C. CONCLUSIONS Based on the results of NMA, all five types of selenium supplements are more effective than placebo and so that selenium supplementation is of help in repairing metaphyseal lesions. Since the overall quality of the evidence was low or very low, the SUCRA values may be misleading and should be considered jointly with the The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) confidence in the estimates for each comparison. The quality of the evidence is insufficient to draw a conclusion about what method of selenium supplementation is most effective. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42016051874.

Abstract
This study reported two cases of patients with Grade III Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) with skeletal dysplasia concomitant with complex knee deformity and functional limitation treated by staged total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Detailed pre-operative planning, bone resection, and soft tissue balancing in affected knees were performed in the surgeries in this report. The results demonstrated that TKA could correct lower limb alignment, alleviate knee pain, improve function, and provide good quality of life in people with KBD. Surgical efficacy is still lower compared with treatment for osteoarthritis; contributing factors include weak muscle strength, severe deformity and unequal length of the lower limb, weak extensor apparatus of the knee, and patient-specific factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Body mass index (BMI) is one of the major factors affecting the development of osteoarthritis (OA) but there is currently no information available regarding the relationship between BMI and Kashin-Beck disease (KBD). Our aim in this study was to investigate the relationship and genetic overlap between BMI and KBD. METHOD A total of 2050 Han Chinese subjects participated in this study. Using a cohort of 333 grade I KBD patients, logistic regression analysis was conducted to evaluate the correlation between BMI and KBD. Another independent sample of 1717 subjects was genotyped for a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using Affymetrix Human SNP 6.0 Arrays. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) effect concordance analysis (SECA) was applied to the GWAS summaries of KBD and BMI for pleiotropy analysis. Genome-wide bivariate association analysis (GWBAA) of KBD and BMI was carried out to identify the genes with pleiotropic effects on KBD and BMI. The relevance of identified genes with KBD was validated by gene expression profiling and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS BMI correlated positively with knee movement disorder in KBD (coefficient β = 0.068, p = 0.045). SECA identified a significant pleiotropic effect (empirical p = 0.021) between KBD and BMI. In the GWBAA, the rs1893577 of the ADAMTS1 gene achieved the most significant association signal (p = 7.38 × 10-9). ADAMTS1 was also up-regulated in KBD vs. normal (ratio = 2.64 ± 2.80) and KBD vs. OA (ratio = 2.31 ± 2.01). The rate of ADAMTS1-positive chondrocytes in KBD was significantly higher than that in OA (p < 0.05) and healthy controls (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that ADAMTS1 is a novel susceptibility gene for KBD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Based on the aetiological hypothesis of Kaschin-Beck disease (KBD), different interventions were adopted, and the preventive and therapeutic effects of interventions was observed and evaluated in this trial. DESIGN A total of 358 children from seven villages of Qinghai Province in China were examined, and 280 children aged 6-11 years old were eligible for the trial. The children were divided into three groups that received either no intervention (n = 64), 150 kg/person of rice from non-KBD areas (n = 103) or 7 kg/family of selenium-iodine salt (n = 113) for 12 months. Data were collected and used to calculate the proportion of patients with X-ray lesions, the proportion of new patients and the metaphyseal repair rate. All indicators were analysed with Pearson chi-square or Fisher's exact tests. The registration number of this trial is ChiCTR-PNRC-12002309 (http://www.chictr.org). RESULTS After interventions, the proportion of patients with X-ray lesions increased dramatically in the control group and decreased significantly in two intervention groups; significant differences were seen between the control group and two intervention groups (P < 0.05). Moreover, significant differences were observed in the proportions of new patients and the metaphyseal repair rates between the control group and two intervention groups (P < 0.05). Additionally, the proportion of new patients was lowest and the metaphyseal repair rate was highest in group B. CONCLUSIONS The effects of eating rice from non-KBD areas and selenium supplementation on the prevention and treatment of paediatric KBD were notable, the consumption of rice might be the most effective and safest intervention and should be encouraged.

Abstract
PURPOSE The treatment of elderly KBD knee remains a significant clinical challenge, and clinical data are lacking. This study aimed to prospectively determine the functional outcomes of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in adult patients with severe Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) of the knee. METHOD Fifteen cases that included 18 occurrences of KBD of the knee were treated by primary knee arthroplasty and followed up for at least two years. Clinical assessments for each patient were performed at time zero (pre-operatively), one, three, six and 12 months and yearly thereafter. The efficacy measures included the visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score, Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score, and Functional Score for Adult Tibetans with Kashin-Beck Disease (FSAT-KBD) as well as radiographic findings. RESULTS All patients were followed for a mean length of 32.47±10.05 months. All force lines in the lower limbs had been improved significantly. No radiographic evidence of loosening or changes in component positioning was observed at the last follow up. The VAS decreased significantly during the first six months after surgery and was maintained until the last follow up (p < 0.01). Similar trends were found in both HSS and FSAT-KBD, which increased significantly post-operatively (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Knee arthroplasty can reduce pain and improve function in patients with severe KBD of the knee. Additional studies will be necessary to confirm our findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between variants in the HLA-DRB1 gene and Kashin-Beck disease (KBD), as well as associations of selenium and iodine deficiencies with KBD in a Tibetan population. METHODS Fourteen single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped around the HLA-DRB1 gene, and HLA-DRB1 allele genotyping was performed in a discovery cohort, composed of 605 patients with KBD and 393 control subjects, and/or a replication cohort, composed of 290 patients with KBD and 295 controls. Plasma concentrations of selenium and iodine were measured and compared by t-test in 299 patients with KBD and 280 controls from the same villages. RESULTS Four SNPs (rs6457617, rs6457620, rs9275295, and rs7745040) in the HLA-DRB1 gene locus were significantly associated with KBD in both the discovery cohort and replication cohort (combined cohort odds ratios [ORs] 1.307-1.402, P = 0.0039-0.0006). The protective haplotype GTCC and the risk haplotype ACGT, each generated by the 4 SNPs, showed a significant association with KBD (for GTCC, OR 0.77, P = 0.0031; for ACGT, OR 1.40, P = 0.0014). HLA-DRB1 allele genotyping revealed that the frequencies of HLA-DRB1*08 and *11 were significantly different between patients with KBD and controls (for HLA-DRB1*08, OR 0.731, P = 0.00564; for HLA-DRB1*11, OR 0.489, P = 0.000395). Moreover, plasma concentrations of selenium and iodine were significantly different between patients with KBD and controls from the same villages (P = 0.0013 and P = 1.84 × 10(-12) , respectively). CONCLUSION These findings, obtained in plasma samples from Tibetan patients with KBD and healthy control subjects from the same regions, confirm the role of selenium and iodine deficiencies in the development of KBD. Moreover, genetic variants in the HLA-DRB1 gene significantly increase the susceptibility to KBD in this population.

Sodium selenite for treatment of Kashin-Beck disease in children: a systematic review of randomised controlled trials. Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2012; 20:605-13. [PMID: 22370124 DOI: 10.1016/j.joca.2012.02.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2011] [Revised: 02/02/2012] [Accepted: 02/16/2012] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the effectiveness and safety of sodium selenite in treatment of patients with Kashin-Beck disease (KBD). METHODS We searched for all publications between January 1966 and October 2011 using seven electronic databases. All randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effects of sodium selenite on KBD vs no treatment or placebo were included. For dichotomous data, odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated according to the intention-to-treat principles. For continuous data, mean difference (MD) was used for outcomes pooled on the same scale. RESULTS A total of 10 RCTs involving 2244 patients were included. The methodological quality of the included studies was low. When comparing the outcome of sodium selenite treatment group vs the control group, the OR of repairing rate of metaphyseal lesions was 5.63 (95% CI: 3.67-8.63) and repairing rate at the distal end of phalanges was 2.98 (95% CI: 1.32-6.70) based on X-ray assessment, which was statistically significant difference in favour of sodium selenite. In one RCT which reported data on clinical improvement, no statistically significant difference was observed in the treatment vs control group (OR 1.50, 95% CI: 0.43-5.30). Se content in hair was (MD 0.11, 95% CI: 0.09-0.13) which was statistically significant higher in selenium group. CONCLUSIONS Current evidence suggests that sodium selenite is more effective than placebo or no treatment in patients with KBD. However, the evidence was limited by potential biases; thus, further high quality large-scale RCTs are still needed to evaluate the short term and long term effects of selenium.

Schepman K, Engelbert RHH, Visser MM, Yu C, de Vos R. Kashin Beck Disease: more than just osteoarthrosis: a cross-sectional study regarding the influence of body function-structures and activities on level of participation. INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2011; 35:767-76. [PMID: 20544197 PMCID: PMC3080494 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-010-1043-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2010] [Revised: 04/19/2010] [Accepted: 04/27/2010] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of body function, activities and pain on the level of activity in adults with Kashin Beck Disease (KBD). Seventy-five KBD patients with a mean age of 54.8 years (SD 11.3) participated. Anthropometrics, range of joint motion (ROM) and muscle strength were measured as well as the time-up-and-go test and functional tests for the lower and upper extremities. Activity was assessed with the participation scale and the WHO DAS II. In the shoulder, elbow, hip and knee joints, a severe decrease in ROM and bilateral pain was noted. A decrease in muscle strength was observed in almost all muscles. The timed-up-and-go test scores decreased. No or mild restriction in activity was found in 35%, and 33% experienced a moderate restriction whereas 32% had severe to extreme restriction. Activities in the lower extremities were mildly to moderately correlated to ROM and muscle strength, whereas in the upper extremities activities were correlated to range of joint motion. Activity was significantly associated with ROM after correction for muscle strength, gender and age. Participation was borderline significantly associated with ROM after correction for muscle strength, gender, age and the activity time-up-and-go. In KBD adults, a severe decrease in activity is primarily caused by decrease in ROM. These findings have strong influence on rehabilitation and surgical intervention.

Abstract
We present a case of Kashin-Beck Disease primarily affecting the ankles. Our findings are consistent with other reports of the symptoms, incidence, and progression of these diseases. At this time, our patient has chosen conservative treatment, but is considering eventual osteoarticular allografts. According to the available literature, surgical treatment is the only option that will not only alleviate her symptoms but halt her joint degeneration. Additionally, osteoarticular allografts have been shown to be an effective treatment and are able to be converted to an ankle arthrodesis if necessary.

Efficacy of celecoxib, meloxicam and paracetamol in elderly Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) patients. INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2010; 35:1409-14. [PMID: 20549501 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-010-1062-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2010] [Revised: 05/20/2010] [Accepted: 05/21/2010] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy and tolerability of celecoxib, meloxicam and paracetamol in late Kashin-Beck disease. Adults (n = 168) with Kashin-Beck disease were randomised in clusters to receive six week courses of celecoxib 200 mg once daily, meloxicam 7.5 mg once daily or paracetamol 300 mg three times daily. Efficacy assessments included overall joint pain intensity and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index subscales; tolerability was evaluated by adverse event and physician reporting. Celecoxib and meloxicam were efficacious in relieving pain and improving stiffness, but unable to improve physical function after six weeks. Paracetamol was efficacious in relieving pain, but unable to improve morning stiffness and physical function after six weeks. Celecoxib and meloxicam provide predictable and sustained relief from pain and stiffness. Paracetamol can relieve the pain. None of the treatments improved impaired physical function in Kashin-Beck disease.
