Long-term outcomes of arthroscopic debridement of the knee in adults with Kashin–Beck disease: an 18-year follow-up [PDF]
Objective Kashin–Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic degenerative joint disease with a high disability rate. We retrospectively evaluated the 18-year clinical follow-up outcomes of adult patients with KBD who underwent arthroscopic debridement for knee ...

Fungal contamination in barley and Kashin-Beck disease in Tibet [PDF]
5First results showed that mesophilic fungal contaminations were significantly higher on barley grains stored in families with KBD (median 66% of grains infected) than in healthy families (median 43% of grains infected) (Kruskal-Wallis ...

The molecular mechanism study of COMP involved in the articular cartilage damage of Kashin-Beck disease [PDF]
Aims: Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is a kind of chronic osteochondropathy, thought to be caused by environmental risk factors such as T-2 toxin. However, the exact aetiology of KBD remains unclear.

Association of SOX6 gene polymorphisms with Kashin-Beck disease risk in the Chinese Han population [PDF]
Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic osteochondropathy. A specific gene called SRY-box transcription factor 6 (SOX6) is important for forming cartilage. This study aims to explore the potential correlation between SOX6 single nucleotide polymorphisms (

A comparative metabolomic analysis reveals the metabolic variations among cartilage of Kashin-Beck disease and osteoarthritis [PDF]
Aims: The metabolic variations between the cartilage of osteoarthritis (OA) and Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) remain largely unknown. Our study aimed to address this by conducting a comparative analysis of the metabolic profiles present in the cartilage of ...

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Depression in Patients With Endemic Osteoarthritis Kashin-Beck Disease. [PDF]
Background: Kashin–Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic osteoarthropathy, which occurs in children aged 3–12, with similarity to osteoarthritis (OA). Previous studies have shown significant depression symptoms in OA patients, yet no comparable research has been conducted in KBD patients. Methods: We conducted a field investigation in KBD areas in Northwest

Transcriptome-wide RNA m6A methylation profiles in an endemic osteoarthropathy, Kashin-Beck disease. [PDF]
Abstract Kashin‐Beck disease (KBD) is a chronic degenerative, disabling disease of the bones and joints and its exact aetiology and pathogenesis remain uncertain. This study is to investigate the role of m6A modification in the pathogenesis of KBD. Combined analysis of m6A MeRIP‐Seq and RNA‐Seq were used to analyse human peripheral blood samples from ...

Growth surveillance indices and Kashin-Beck Disease in children. [PDF]
Selenium, manganese, and calcium are necessary elements for maintaining normal growth and skeleton formation. Kashin-Beck disease mostly occurs in children, resulting in deformities, dwarfism, and disabilities. Selenium deficiency was considered a risk factor in China, while manganese was reportedly involved in it in Russia.
