Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy(APM) surgery outcomes for Metabolic Syndrome(MetS) patients with degenerative meniscus tears(DMTs) was still not clear. The aim of the study was to investigate outcomes of early APM vs delayed APM for MetS patients with degenerate meniscus tears.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Degenerate meniscus tears(DMTs) were the most common knee disease in aged and obese people. The most common treatment for DMTs was arthroscopic partial meniscectomy(APM) surgery. However, the time window for performing APM surgery was unclear, especially in obese patients with Metabolic syndrome(MetS). Abdominal obesity, insulin resistance with or without glucose intolerance, dyslipidemia or elevated blood pressure are included in the principal components of MetS. Whether early APM within 3 to 6 months or delayed APM surgery within 6 to 12 months are benefical to MetS patients with DMTs. The knee function outcomes between early APM and delayed APM for MetS patients with DMTs were assessed and follow up to 12 months after surgery.
