Exploring the Efficacy of BMAC and ADSC Injections in Knee Osteoarthritis Hosts: David Rosenblum,MD Overview: In this episode, we delve into a recent study published in the Indian Journal of Orthopaedics that compares the therapeutic efficacy of Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) and Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs) for treating knee osteoarthritis (OA). The study aims to provide insights into the effectiveness of these regenerative treatments and their correlation with mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) cellularity. Key Points Discussed: Background on Osteoarthritis: Definition and impact of OA, particularly in older populations. Overview of traditional treatments and the shift towards regenerative medicine. Study Objectives: To compare the efficacy of BMAC and ADSC injections in symptomatic knee OA patients. To analyze MSC quantity and quality in harvested tissues from both sources. Methodology: Description of the study design involving 60 patients with knee OA. Details on patient demographics, injection protocols, and follow-up assessments (VAS, WOMAC, ROM). Results: Significant improvements in clinical scores for both BMAC and ADSC groups at 6 months. Discussion on the lack of significant correlation between MSC quantity and treatment efficacy. Insights into the success rates of MSC cultures from both bone marrow and adipose tissue. Conclusions: Both treatments demonstrated clinical improvements, with no substantial differences between them. BMAC showed higher MSC counts and faster recovery rates, but further research is needed to understand the underlying factors affecting efficacy. Implications for Clinical Practice: Considerations for clinicians when choosing between BMAC and ADSC treatments. Future directions for research in regenerative therapies for knee OA.

If your knees don't bend more than 90 degrees, what can you do? Ways to get more reach in the stroke if you have knee limitations. Timestamps 00:45 A 70 year old with osteoarthritis in both knees asks how to get more reach. Recognise where your comfort zone is where you are capable of pushing your limits. As you roll forward into the catch your ankles, pelvis and lower body also need to bend. You can do a functional movement assessment to understand your mobility in those other joints - and whether they can be made more flexible using sports massage, stretching or osteopathy. Functional Movement Assessment - free - https://fastermastersrowing.com/member-register/functional-movement-assessment/ 03:00 3 ways to get more compression The ideal is to get shins vertical at the catch with your heels lifted, back leaning forwards so your shoulders are sternward of your hips. 1 - Measure the shoe to seat height - typically it would be 15-16 cm for a woman of your height. Increase this to over 17cm by lowering the shoes and/or raising the seat with a 1 cm high seat pad. Beware low shoes may mean your calves hit the deck of the boat which isn't comfortable. Test this out on a rowing machine first - use a mirror to see the effect it has. 2 - Change the rake or angle of the footstretcher. Most are around 42-45 degrees. Making it shallower may enable you to get more compression - but it's impacted by your ankle flexibility. Osteopaths are good at both soft tissue massage and bone manipulation - show them a photo of rowing to explain what you're trying to achieve. I brush my teeth daily squatting on the floor to improve my ankle flexibility trying to keep my feet flat on the floor. 3 - If you buy your own seat, you can unscrew the seat top from the undercarriage and insert batons of wood to raise the seat. Check the track widths on the boats you use first so you know the seat will work in multiple boats (generally small boats have narrower track widths than larger boats). 10:30 Rigging adaptations The arc the oar travels through around the oarlock can be adjusted. Move the pivot point closer to the handle (try 1 or 2 cm). This enables your handle to move further around the arc - shortening the inboard relative to the outboard. But don't increase the load (gearing) a lot = keep the ratio of the length of outboard to inboard the same. By using slightly shorter oars than your crew mates and a shorter inboard, you can increase the arc that the tip of your blade moves through each stroke. You will need to change your footstretcher too - closer to the stern. Keep the gap between your handles at the finish the same. Mike Davenport explains more on the Rigging for Masters expert webinar. https://fastermastersrowing.com/member-register/rigging/ You may also look at increasing your layback / back swing too. Talk this through with your coach.
A recent network meta-analysis published in the journal Nutrients systematically compared the effectiveness of seven common nutritional supplements for treating knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The analysis included 39 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with a total of 4,599 patients. Researchers evaluated the impact of eggshell membrane, vitamin D, Boswellia, curcumin, ginger, krill oil, and collagen against a placebo for improving pain, stiffness, and function. The results showed that compared to a placebo, Boswellia provided statistically significant improvements across all measures, including WOMAC pain (mean difference [MD] = -10.58), stiffness (MD = -9.47), function (MD = -14.00), and VAS pain (MD = -17.26). Bayesian analysis consistently ranked Boswellia as the most likely to be the best option for pain and stiffness relief. Other supplements also showed benefits; krill oil, curcumin, and collagen significantly improved function, while collagen, curcumin, and ginger significantly reduced VAS pain scores. Importantly, no supplement was associated with an increase in adverse events compared to the placebo. The authors conclude that certain supplements, particularly Boswellia, appear to be effective and well-tolerated for managing KOA symptoms.Disclaimers:• "This information is for educational purposes only and should not be interpreted as medical advice." • "The study discussed is a network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials conducted on humans.

A recent systematic review in the journal Nutrients analyzed 146 studies to evaluate the safety and efficacy of glucosamine and chondroitin in humans. Researchers found that for conditions like osteoarthritis and joint pain, the supplements are generally effective and well-tolerated. Over 90% of the efficacy studies included in the review reported positive outcomes for patients. Similarly, a majority of safety studies (80 out of 107) concluded that the supplements have minimal to no adverse effects, with the most common being mild gastrointestinal complaints. The most frequently studied and effective daily dosages were 1500 mg for glucosamine and 1200 mg for chondroitin, typically taken together in two or three divided doses.Disclaimers:"This information is for educational purposes only and should not be interpreted as medical advice.""The information presented is from a systematic review of 146 human studies, the majority of which were randomized controlled trials.""Always consult with a qualified healthcare professional before making any changes to your diet, supplement regimen, or treatment plan, especially if you have a medical condition or are taking medications.""This channel does not provide medical advice."#Glucosamine #Chondroitin #Osteoarthritis #JointPain #SystematicReviewBaden KER, Hoeksema SL, Gibson N, Gadi DN, Craig E, Draime JA, Tubb SM, Chen AMH.

According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, over 2 million Australians are living with osteoarthritis — a condition that results from the degeneration of joint cartilage and underlying bone, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility, particularly in the knees, hips, hands, and feet. But is osteoarthritis simply a result of 'wear and tear'? And more importantly, what can be done about it? On this edition, we'll explore not only what causes knee osteoarthritis, but also hear about a range of treatment and management options available — that can help people maintain their mobility and quality of life.

Join us in this episode of the Modern Pain Podcast as we sit down with Brian Pulling to explore groundbreaking research on why people with knee osteoarthritis avoid physical activity despite its known benefits. Brian shares insights from a study using the Implicit Association Test (IAT) to uncover subconscious beliefs associating movement with danger. We delve into how these implicit threat associations differ from explicit beliefs and the implications for clinical practice. Brian also shares his personal journey from physical therapy training in the U.S. to becoming a leading researcher in Australia. This episode is packed with valuable information for clinicians looking to improve pain management strategies and help patients move more confidently.ARTICLE*********************************************************************
