(2012)
Purpose: The purpose of this prospective randomized trial was to examine the effect of tourniquet use on rehabilitation rate, return to work and sport activities, and muscle damage after arthroscopic meniscectomy. Methods: ...
Association of KLOTHO Gene Polymorphisms with Knee Osteoarthritis in Greek Population
(2008)
Based on the fact that klotho-deficient mice exhibit multiple aging phenotypes, including osteopenia and subchondral sclerosis of joints and on the recent observation that KLOTHO gene plays an important role in calcium/phosphate ...
Absence of linkage to chromosomes 6q and 16p in a Greek population with knee osteoarthritis
(2006)
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common age-related debilitating disease of the joints characterized by degeneration of the articular cartilage which leads to joint pain, discomfort, and immobility. Several risk factors have been ...
Smoking affects mRNA expression of bone morphogenetic proteins in human periosteum
(2012)
Periosteum is important for bone homoeostasis through the release of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and their effect on osteoprogenitor cells. Smoking has an adverse effect on fracture healing and bone regeneration. ...
