Background and purpose: Depression has been found to be associated with pain and poor physical function in patients with knee osteoarthritis though it is not sufficiently documented in Nigeria. This study was aimed at investigating the relationship among pain, depression and physical function in patients with knee osteoarthritis in Ibadan. Methods: Eighty individuals diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis were screened for depression using the mood/ depression assessment questionnaire. Depression, physical function and pain were assessed by Becks Depression Inventory, Ibadan Knee Hip Osteoarthritis Outcome Measure and Modified Visual Analogue Scale respectively. Data were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation test and linear regression (alpha level set at 0.05).  Results: Screening for depression was positive in 28.8% of patients aged 62.69 ± 5.96 years. There were significant correlations between physical function and each of pain intensity (r=-0.659) and depression (r = - 0.660) and between pain intensity and depression (r= 0.611). Negative linear relationship exist between physical function and each of pain (R2=0.434), depression (R2=0.436). A positive linear relationship exists between pain intensity and depression (R2=0.374).Conclusion: About a quarter of patients with knee osteoarthritis had depression. Individuals with knee osteoarthritis who had higher levels of pain were more depressed and had lower level of physical function.

Background and objective: The benefi cial effect of Resisted Exercise (RE) in Knee Osteoarthritis (OA) rehabilitation is often hamstrung by the presence of other comorbidities affecting exercise implementation, hence the need for comparative alternative therapies. This study compared the effect of Burst Mode Alternating Current (BMAC) and RE in the management of patients with knee OA. Methods: Forty-seven consenting patients with primary knee OA participated in this study. The participants were recruited from the outpatient physiotherapy department of a Nigerian teaching hospital. The participants were randomly assigned into either RE plus BMAC (RBMAC) or RE Only (REO) groups. The effects of intervention were assessed in terms of physical function, pain intensity and quadriceps strength at the 4th and 8th week of intervention. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze data at p<0.05 alpha level. Result: RBMAC and REO led to signifi cant mean changes in physical function (RBMAC – p=0.001: REO – p=0.001), pain intensity (RBMAC − p=0.001: REO – p=0.001), and muscle strength (RBMAC − p=0.001: REO – p=0.001) scores. However, there was no signifi cant difference in the mean change in physical function, pain intensity or muscle strength scores between RE plus BMAC and RE only groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, resisted exercise alone had signifi cant effects on physical function, pain intensity and quadriceps strength in patients with knee osteoarthritis. However, burst mode alternating current did not show additional effects.

Purpose:To assess correlates of physical activity, and to examine the relationship between physical activity and physical functioning, in 160 older (66 ± 6 years old), overweight/obese (mean body mass index = 33.5 ± 3.8 kg/m2), sedentary (less than 30 mins of activity, 3 days a week) individuals with knee osteoarthritis.Methods:Physical activity was measured with accelerometers and by self-report. Physical function was assessed by 6-min walk distance, knee strength, and the Short Physical Performance Battery. Pain and perceived function were measured by questionnaires. Pearson correlations and general linear models were used to analyze the relationships.Results:The mean number of steps taken per day was 6209 and the average PAEE was 237 ± 124 kcal/day. Participants engaged in 131 ± 39 minutes of light physical activity (LPA) and 10.6 ± 8.9 minutes of moderate-vigorous physical activity (MPA/VPA). Total steps/day, PAEE, and minutes of MPA/VPA were all negatively correlated with age. The 6-min walk distance and lower extremity function were better in those who had higher total steps/day, higher PAEE, higher minutes of MPA/VPA, and a higher PASE score.Conclusions:This study demonstrates that a population who has higher levels of spontaneous activity have better overall physical function than those who engage in less activity.

BACKGROUND: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is one of the most common chronic diseases impacting millions of elderly people. OBJECTIVES: The study compared the effects of two intensities of partial blood flow restriction (BFR) with low-intensity resistance training on quadriceps strength and cross-sectional area (CSA), and pain in people with knee osteoarthritis (PwKOA). METHODS: Thirty-five PwKOA, aged 50–65, participated. Quadriceps CSA was measured by ultrasonography, quadriceps strength – by isokinetic dynamometry and pain by VAS. These outcome variables were obtained at the beginning of the study and re-evaluated eight weeks after the intervention. RESULTS: An interaction effect was present for quadriceps CSA (P= 0.042) and quadriceps strength (P= 0.006), showing that using 70% of total occlusion pressure with 30% 1RM had a more significant effect. Knee pain improved significantly through the main effect of BFR (P< 0.001), and low-intensity resistance training (P= 0.011). Pain improved more at 70% of total occlusion pressure, with 30% of 1RM (2.5 ± 1.06) than 50% total occlusion pressure with 10% of 1RM (5.77 ± 1.46). CONCLUSION: A combination of 70% of total occlusion pressure with 30% 1RM could be beneficial in PwKOA in improving pain, and increasing the quadriceps strength. The changes in the quadriceps strength could be a predictor for knee pain.
