Abstract
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a chronic, low-grade inflammatory disease that affects knee joints and causes functional disability in the elderly. KOA is typically treated with oral NSAIDs, which are commonly associated with gastrointestinal side effects or cardiovascular complications. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is widely used by patients with KOA in Taiwan; the Hu-Qian-Wan (HQW) formula is typically prescribed. We investigated the therapeutic role of a modified version of the HQW decoction in Sprague-Dawley rats with KOA induced by anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) of the right knee.
