Effect of Age-Related Cartilage Turnover on Serum C-Telopeptide of Collagen Type II and Osteocalcin Levels in Growing Rabbits with and without Surgically Induced Osteoarthritis
Figure 3
(a) OARSI Osteoarthritis Cartilage Histopathology Assessment System (OOCHAS) scores in operated 5-month-old (O5M), 6-month-old (O6M), and 9-month-old (O9M) rabbits. (b) The OOCHAS scores in the medial femoral condyle (MFC), lateral femoral condyle (LFC), medial tibial condyle (MTC), and lateral tibial condyle (LTC) at each time point. (c) The OOCHAS scores in the anterior (A), central (C), and posterior (P) subregions of each condyle and total knee. (d) The OOCHAS scores in each subregion at each time point. *Significant difference as assessed using the Mann-Whitney tests with Bonferroni correction.
