Histological analysis of age-related degeneration in human female and male knee cartilage and meniscus Open
Objectives: To assess level of degeneration in human knee cartilage and meniscus in donors without clinically-evident knee arthritis, in relation to age and sex. Further, to investigate the association between cartilage and meniscus degene…

Characterizing meniscal calcifications with photon counting-based dual-energy computed tomography Open
Meniscal calcifications are associated with meniscal degeneration and osteoarthritis (OA). However, differentiating between calcification types, such as basic calcium phosphate (BCP) and calcium pyrophosphate (CPP), remains challenging in …

Prevalence and classification of meniscal calcifications in the human knee Open
The presence of BCP was predominant in menisci of OA individuals, whereas CPP exhibited similar prevalence in individuals with and without OA. The formation of BCP crystals in menisci may represent an important and specific characteristic …

Mineral Crystal Thickness in Calcified Cartilage and Subchondral Bone in Healthy and Osteoarthritic Human Knees Open
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease, where articular cartilage degradation is often accompanied with sclerosis of the subchondral bone. However, the association between OA and tissue mineralization at the nanostructural le…
