Comparison of the responsiveness of the WOMAC and the 12-item WHODAS 2.0 in patients with Kashin–Beck disease [PDF]

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background Several questionnaires have been used to assess the health status of patients with Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) in clinical trials, but the evidence regarding the responsiveness of these instruments in KBD patients is limited.

Long-term outcomes of arthroscopic debridement of the knee in adults with Kashin–Beck disease: an 18-year follow-up [PDF]

Journal of International Medical Research, 2021
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 ...

The molecular mechanism study of COMP involved in the articular cartilage damage of Kashin-Beck disease [PDF]

Bone & Joint Research, 2020
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.

Potential involvement of connective tissue growth factor in chondrocytes apoptosis of Kashin-Beck disease

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Background: Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic osteoarthropathy characterized by excessive chondrocytes apoptosis. T-2 toxin exposure has been proved to be its etiology. Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) exerts a profound influence on cartilage

Association of SOX6 gene polymorphisms with Kashin-Beck disease risk in the Chinese Han population [PDF]

Open Medicine
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 (

The urinary levels of CTX-II, C2C, PYD, and Helix-II increased among adults with KBD: a cross-sectional study

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2019
Background Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic osteoarthropathy, and its pathogenesis is still not entirely clear. Pathologically, many KBD changes are similar to those of osteoarthritis (OA).

Serum levels of PIICP, PIIANP, and PIIBNP are decreased in patients with an endemic osteochondropathy, Kashin-Beck disease

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2018
Background Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic, chronic, degenerative osteoarthropathy. KBD is usually diagnosed by using X-ray image and clinical symptoms, lacking of serological biomarkers.

Reprogramming of Mitochondrial Respiratory Chain Complex by Targeting SIRT3‐COX4I2 Axis Attenuates Osteoarthritis Progression

Advanced Science, Volume 10, Issue 10, April 5, 2023., 2023
The SIRT3‐medicated post‐translational acetylation of the mitochondrial respiratory chain has therapeutic potential for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). Mechanistically, SIRT3 directly binds and deacetylates COX4I2 to promote mitochondrial respiration activity.
