Abstract
Objective: Osteoarthritis is the most prevalent joint disease. Its diagnosis is based on clinical signs and radiological findings. Carboxyl-Terminal Collagen Type 2 (CTX-II) is a measurable product of the cartilage destruction that occurs during this disease. This study was done to evaluate the correlation between this biomarker and the severity of a patient’s osteoarthritis. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study was done on 110 patients above the age of 45 years, diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis according to American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria. After obtaining informed consent from the patients and recording their demographic data, 5 ml blood samples were sent to the laboratory to measure the level of CTX-II. To measure the severity of their osteoarthritis, radiographies were taken of the patients’ knees in a standing position. The disease was then classified into four different grades after radiography. Results: 32.7% of patients were in grades I, II (mild), 35.5% were in grade III (moderate) and 31.8% were in grade IV (severe). CTX-II mean levels were 373±52.8 ng/ml in mild, 476±67.1 ng/ml in moderate and 586.2±87.7 ng/ml in the severe radiologic group with a significant correlation (p-value <0.001). The mean levels had significant correlation with pain during activity and at rest, pain severity according to the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), morning stiffness, crepitation, radiologic grading, and swelling of the knee. Conclusion: This study showed a strong association between clinical/radiological signs of osteoarthritis and CTX-II levels in patients who had knee osteoarthritis; therefore this biomarker can be used to determine the severity of knee osteoarthritis and allows for early diagnosis.
