Research Themes

Histopathological changes of joint components by joint contracture.

Histopathological changes of joint components by joint contracture. Joint contracture is a part of disuse syndrome induced by reduced joint movement caused by regional immobilization, bedrest, etc., and accounts for a large portion of clinical caseloads in physical therapy. However, consensus is yet to be reached on the pathology of joint components affected by joint contracture, despite the publication of various reports on the subject. We developed a joint contracture model by using various methods to immobilize the knee joints of rat hindlimbs, and have been histopathologically observing changes in joint components (e.g. joint cartilage, joint capsule, synovium, fat tissue), clarifying the effects of physical therapy treatment, and examining more effective treatment approaches.
