"Latar Belakang: Diagnosis dan tatalaksana osteoartritis lutut sementara ini lebih berfokus pada sendi tibiofemoral dan kesegarisan di bidang tersebut, yang hanya memberikan asosiasi lemah dengan nyeri dan disabilitas. Sementara itu, masih sangat minim studi yang mempelajari kesegarisan patela pada osteoartritis lutut, terutama hubungannya dengan derajat keparahan penyakit secara radiografis, defek kartilago, dan juga nyeri dan disabilitas.Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan studi potong lintang yang diikuti oleh pasien RSUPN Cipto Mangunkusumo yang terdiagnosis osteoartritis lutut. Subjek menjalani pemeriksaan radiografis dan magnetic resonance, dari situ dievaluasi kesegarisan patela, grade Kellgren-Lawrence (KL), dan defek kartilago yang dinilai dengan grade International Cartilage Regeneration and Joint Preservation Society(ICRS). Kesegarisan patela dinilai dari sulcus angle(SA), congruence angle(CA), trochlear angle(TA), lateral trochlear inclination(LTI), trochlear depth(TD), bisect offset(BO), patellar displacement(PD), lateral patellar tilt angle(LPTA), dan lateral patellofemoral angle(LPFA).Pasien juga diukur skor WOMAC yang menilai nyeri dan disabilitas.Hasil: Ditemukan korelasi antaraTA (r = -0,397; p < 0,001), LTI (r = -0,333; p = 0,004), BO (r = 0,268; p = 0,020), dan PD (r = 0,299; p = 0,009) dengan grade KL patelofemoral. TA juga berkorelasi juga dengan grade KL tibiofemoral (r = -0,246; p = 0,033). TA (r = -0,246; p = 0,033) juga berkorelasi dengan grade KL tibiofemoral. Tidak ditemukan parameter kesegarisan patela yang berkorelasi dengan grade ICRS. Sementara itu SA (r = 0,238; p = 0,039), LTI (r = -0,235; p = 0,042), TD (r = -0,374; p = 0,001), BO (r = 0,257; p = 0,026) dan LPTA (r = 0,267; p = 0,021) berkorelasi dengan nyeri. LTI (r = -0,229; p = 0,048), TD (r = -0,251; p = 0,030) dan LPTA (r = 0,314; p = 0,006) berkorelasi terhadap disabilitas.Kesimpulan: Kesegarisan patela axial berkorelasi dengan keparahan radiografis osteoartritis lutut, tidak hanya pada kompartemen patelofemoral tetapi juga tibiofemoral. Kesegarisan patela juga berkorelasi dengan nyeri dan disabilitas.......Background: Diagnosis and treatment of knee osteoarthritis has been focused on the tibiofemoral joint and its alignment, even though they provide little contribution to pain and disability. The aim of this study is to evaluate the axial patellar alignment in patients with knee osteoarthritis, especially its association with the radiographic findings, cartilage defect on magnetic resonance, as well as pain and disability.Methods: Patients with knee osteoarthritis underwent radiographic and magnetic resonance examinations. Patellar alignment was represented by sulcus angle (SA), congruence angle (CA), trochlear angle (TA), lateral trochlear inclination (LTI), trochlear depth (TD), bisect offset (BO), patellar displacement (PD), lateral patellar tilt angle (LPTA), dan lateral patellofemoral angle (LPFA). We evaluated the association between patellar alignment and Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grade of the radiographs, International Cartilage Regeneration and Joint Preservation Society (ICRS) grade of the cartilage defect on magnetic resonance images, and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score.Results: Radiographically, TA  (r = -0,397; p < 0,001), LTI (r = -0,333; p = 0,004), BO (r = 0,268; p = 0,020), and PD (r = 0,299; p = 0,009) were correlated with patellofemoral KL grade. TA was also correlated with tibiofemoral KL grade (r = -0,246; p = 0,033). However, no patellar alignment index was found to be correlated with ICRS grade. Furthermore SA (r = 0,238; p = 0,039), LTI (r = -0,235; p = 0,042), TD (r = -0,374; p = 0,001), BO (r = 0,257; p = 0,026) and LPTA (r = 0,267; p = 0,021) were correlated with pain score in WOMAC. Meanwhile, LTI (r = -0,229; p = 0,048), TD (r = -0,251; p = 0,030) and LPTA (r = 0,314; p = 0,006) were correlated with disability score in WOMAC.Conclusion: Axial patellar alignment was correlated with radiographic severity of knee osteoarthritis, not only in patellofemoral compartment but also in tibiofemoral compartment. Patellar alignment was also associated with pain and disability."

"Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui asupan asam amino taurin dan korelasinya dengan aktivitas superoksida dismutase pada darah pasien osteoartritis lutut. Pada osteoartritis terjadi ketidakseimbangan antara prooksidan dengan antioksidan sehingga menimbulkan keadaan yang disebut stres oksidatif. Antioksidan enzimatik superoksida dismutase berperan dalam mencegah terjadinya stres oksidatif dengan cara memutus reaksi berantai radikal bebas sejak awal. Superoksida dismutase bekerja dengan cara mengkatalisis superoksida menjadi hidrogen peroksida. Pada osteoartritis diketahui terjadi peningkatan superoksida dan penurunan aktivitas superoksida dismutase. Asam amino taurin merupakan asam amino yang terdapat dalam jumlah tinggi di tubuh namun tidak ikut berperan serta dalam sintesis protein. Asam amino taurin banyak terdapat dalam bahan makanan sumber protein hewani terutama ikan, daging dan hasil laut. Asam amino taurin mempunyai beberapa sifat antara lain sebagai antioksidan, antiinflamasi, dan kondroprotektif. Penelitian ini menggunakan disain potong lintang dengan melibatkan 56 subjek OA lutut yang direkrut melalui consecutive sampling. Asupan taurin diambil dengan metode FFQ semikuantitatif. Sampel aktivitas superoksida dismutase diambil dari darah dan diukur menggunakan RANSOD SD 125 dengan metode spektrofotometri. Uji statistik menggunakan uji korelasi dengan SPSS. Rerata usia adalah 50,75 6,17 tahun, sebanyak 89,3 berjenis kelamin perempuan. Median asupan asam amino taurin adalah 59,77 15,96-278,57 mg per hari. Median aktivitas superoksida dismutase adalah 274,97 152,48-360,97 unit/mL dan didapatkan sebanyak 64,3 subjek dengan aktivitas superoksida dismutase yang meningkat. Pada penelitian ini didapatkan korelasi positif bermakna dengan kekuatan lemah p = 0,034, r = 0,284 antara asupan asam amino taurin dengan aktivitas superoksida dismutase pada pasien osteoartritis lutut. Kesimpulan: asupan asam amino taurin mungkin mempunyai peranan dengan aktivitas superoksida dismutase pada pasien osteoartritis lutut.

The aim of this research was to observe the correlation between taurine amino acid intakes and superoxide dismutase activities on knee osteoarthritis patients. In osteoarthritis there is an imbalance state between pro oxidant and anti oxidant causing oxidative stress. The enzymatic anti oxidant superoxide dismutase plays an important role in stopping the occurrence of oxidative stress by cutting off the free radicals rsquo chain reaction from the beginning. Superoxide dismutase works by catalyzing superoxide into hydrogen peroxide. Osteoarthritis cases are known by the increase of superoxide and the decrease of superoxide dismutase activities. Taurine is an amino acid that is found abundant in human body that does not play a role in protein synthesis reaction. Taurine amino acid is found in several food sources including fish, meat, and seafood. Taurine amino acid has several characteristics including anti oxidant, anti inflammatory, and chondro protective. This study used cross sectional design with 56 knee osteoarthritis subjects recruited through consecutive sampling. Taurine intake was obtained by semiquantitative FFQ method. The superoxide dismutase activity sample was obtained from whole blood and measured using RANSOD SD 125 with spectrophotometric method. The statistical test used correlation test with SPSS. The mean age was 50.75 6.17 years old, with 89.3 of them were females. Median for taurine intakes was 59.77 15.96 ndash 278.57 mg per day. Median for the superoxide dismutase activities was 274.97 152.48 ndash 360.97 unit per ml, and 64.3 of the subjects with increasing superoxide dismutase activity. This research found a positive yet low significant correlation p 0,034, r 0,284 between taurine amino acid intakes and superoxide dismutase activity in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Conclusion The taurine amino acid intake may have a role with the superoxide dismutase activity in patients with knee osteoarthritis."
