Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Routine Clinical Care: Participants will receive routine clinical care as determined by their treating physicians according to usual clinical practice. The study will not assign any treatment, randomization, or experimental intervention.
Study summary
This is an observational cohort study conducted at Ningbo No. 2 Hospital. The study will include patients with knee-related sports injuries or degenerative knee conditions who receive routine clinical care. The purpose is to build a standardized real-world clinical cohort and evaluate knee injury, degeneration, recovery, and long-term outcomes.
After informed consent, participants will undergo baseline data collection, including medical history, laboratory tests, questionnaires, X-ray and MRI imaging, and functional assessments. Patients younger than 50 years will mainly be assessed for sports injury and functional recovery, while patients aged 50 years or older will receive additional sarcopenia-related assessments such as grip strength, DXA testing, and gait evaluation.
No experimental treatment, randomization, or intervention will be assigned. Participants will be followed at about 6, 12, and 24 months after treatment or surgery to assess knee function, imaging changes, reinjury, reoperation, pain, quality of life, falls, and functional decline. The study plans to enroll about 500 participants.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Change in Knee Function Scores(IKDC) — Baseline, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months after treatment or surgery
Change in knee function from baseline will be assessed using validated patient-reported outcome scores(IKDC) - Change in Imaging-Based Knee Degeneration(T1/T2 mapping) — Baseline, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months after treatment or surgery
Progression of knee degeneration will be assessed using quantitative MRI sequences ( T1/T2 mapping).
