Brief Summary:
Indonesian population's life expectancy has been increasing steadily in the last 3 decades. It potentially increases the prevalence of degenerative diseases, including osteoarthritis (OA). Serum Vitamin D (25(OH)D) level has been recognized as a risk factors for knee OA. Cartilage Oligomeric Matrix Protein (COMP) is cartilage degradation product can be used as a diagnostic marker for knee OA. This study aims to determine the effect of Vitamin D supplementation (Alphacalcidol) on pain based on WOMAC indicators and joint cartilage condition based on COMP serum markers in knee OA elderly patients.
Detailed Description:
Vitamin D plays important role to enhance calcium absorption in intestine and promotes mineralization of bones. Several studies found that Vitamin D levels were low in patients with knee OA.
Vitamin D deficiency were found in 50% of women age 45-55 years old and 35% of women age 60-90 years old in Jakarta and Bekasi. Alphacalcidol is a vitamin D supplementation recommended to be used in patients with renal insufficiency, which is prevalent in elderly. Alfacalcidol does not need to undergo renal 1-alpha-hydroxylation which impaired in renal insufficiency, although it can still cause hypercalcemia.
Current detection and diagnosis of knee OA relies on plain radiological examination, which is not really objective because it depends on radiological expertise and experience. Moreover, plain radiological diagnosis has limited ability to detect joint damage at an early stage. Therefore, knee OA is often diagnosed at advanced stage. For this reason, selecting accurate joint cartilage biomarkers is important to detect and predict the severity of OA objectively and at earlier stage. Cartilage Oligomeric Matrix Protein (COMP) is one of degradation products released into synovium fluid and bloodstream from cartilage matrix turnover process. Therefore, COMP can be used as a marker of diagnosis and cartilage injury severity of knee OA.
Currently, there has been no study about the association of Vitamin D supplementation with pain level and cartilage matrix turnover process in Indonesia. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effect of Vitamin D supplementation (Alphacalcidol) on pain and joint cartilage condition in elderly patients with knee OA.
