概要 Autologous protein solution (APS) is made from platelet-rich plasma that extracts high-concentration growth factors and cytokines. Intra-articular APS injection was reported to improve knee osteoarthritis (KOA) pain and function. However, efficacy differences regarding osteoarthritis severity remained unknown. This retrospective study clinically assessed 220 knees with KOA in the Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grades 2-4 that underwent APS injection using the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS). A telephone survey was performed for patients who dropped out to check symptom changes. The recalculated estimated responder rate included the telephone survey results. The 12-month follow-up was completed with 148 knees (67%), whereas 72 knees dropped out. The follow-up rate was significantly lower in KL4 than KL2 and 3. The KOOS significantly improved in 148 knees, whereas the KOOS was lower in KL4 than in KL2. The responder rate was 55% total, 58% in KL2, 57% in KL3, and 47% in KL4; however, the estimated responder rate, including the telephone survey, was 49% total, 55% in KL2, 54% in KL3, and 36% in KL4. This study showed improved clinical symptoms 1-year after APS injections for KOA, with a lower responder rate in KL4 than in KL2 or KL3.
