To study the clinical efficacy and safety of the combined medication ARTRA MSM FORTE (400 mg chondroitin sulfate, 500 mg glucosamine hydrochloride, 300 mg methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), and 10 mg sodium hyaluronate calculated with reference to hyaluronic acid) in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Subjects and methods. The study enrolled 100 patients with Kellgren-Lawrence grades 2—3 knee OA with obvious pain syndrome (pain intensity scores on a visual analog scale (VAS)) equal or greater than 40 mm during walking. The patients were examined monthly; changes in WOMAC index scores, Get-Up and Go test results, the efficiency of therapy in the opinion of a physician and a patient, and quality of life according to the EQ-5D questionnaire were estimated. They were randomized into 2 groups: 1) 50 patients took ARTRA MSM as 2 tablets daily for one month, then 1 tablet daily; 2) 50 received ARTRA in accordance with the same scheme. Clinical examination was performed before and at 30, 60, 90 and 120 days of the study. Results. All the 100 patients completed treatment. Analysis of the results showed a significant decrease in pain on VAS in both groups. Reduced pain intensity was observed by the end of the first month of therapy and remained throughout the follow-up. Both medications diminished stiffness just after a month of therapy. They alleviated joint function and reduced total WOMAC scores at Visit 2. Analysis of Get-Up and Go test results indicated significantly less spent time in both groups; however, these differences reached the statistical significance in the ARTRA MSM group just at Visit 2 and in the ARTRA group only at Visit 3. The effect ARTRA MSM occurred more rapidly. This was confirmed by the patient and physician evaluations of the efficiency of treatment, which indicated that its positive effect occurred more rapidly in the ARTRA MSM group (p=0.02). Estimation of EQ-5D scores also showed positive results: there was a significant improvement of these indicators in the two compared groups at Visit 3. Both medications were very well tolerated and caused no adverse reactions; therapy was not discontinued. Conclusion. ARTRA MSM is rapider in its effect: a significant improvement in Get-Up and Go test results and patient and physician evaluations of the efficiency of treatment. Additional interviews of the patients taking ARTRA MSM demonstrated that 36 (72%) of them reported a prompter pain relief than the ARTRA-treated patients. ARTRA MSM may be recommended for the treatment of OA in clinical practice.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Резюме Цель исследования. Оценка клинической эффективности и безопасности комбинированного препарата АРТРА MСM ФОРТЕ (400 мг хондроитина сульфата, 500 мг глюкозамина гидрохлорида, 300 мг метилсульфонилметана, 10 мг гиалуроната натрия в пересчете на гиауроновую кислоту) у пациентов с остеоартрозом (ОА) коленного сустава (КС). Материалы и методы. В исследование включили 100 пациентов с ОА КС II—III стадии по Kellgren—Lawrence, с выраженным болевым синдромом (интенсивность боли при ходьбе 40 мм и более по визуальной аналоговой шкале — ВАШ). Больных осматривали ежемесячно, оценивали динамику индекса WOMAC, тест «встань и иди», эффективность терапии по мнению врача и пациента, качество жизни по анкете EQ—5D. Пациентов рандомизированно разделили на 2 группы: 50 человек получали препарат АРТРА MСM по 2 таблетки в сутки в 1-й месяц, затем по 1 таблетке в день; 50 человек — препарат АРТРА по той же схеме. Клиническое обследование пациентов проводили в начале исследования, на 30, 60, 90 и 120-й дни от начала исследования. Результаты. Все 100 больных закончили лечение. Анализ результатов показал достоверное снижение боли по ВАШ в обеих группах. Уменьшение интенсивности боли отмечено к концу 1-го месяца терапии, оно сохранялось весь период наблюдения. Оба препарата уменьшали скованность уже через 1 мес терапии. По влиянию на функциональное состояние суставов и суммарный индекс WOMAC оба препарата показали уменьшение показателей со второго визита. Анализ теста «встань и иди» показал достоверное уменьшение затрачиваемого времени в обеих группах, однако в группе препарата АРТРА MСM эти различия достигали статистической значимости уже на втором визите, а в группе препарата АРТРА — только на третьем визите. Препарат АРТРА MСM обеспечил более быстрое наступление эффекта. Это подтверждают и оценки эффективности лечения, проводимые пациентом и врачом; оценки показали более быстрое наступление положительного эффекта в группе препарата АРТРА MСM (р=0,02). При оценке EQ—5D также получены положительные результаты: достоверное улучшение данных показателей наблюдалось с третьего визита в обеих сравниваемых группах. Переносимость обоих препаратов была очень хорошей, нежелательных явлений, потребовавших отмены терапии, не отмечено. Заключение. Препарат АРТРА МСМ обеспечивает более быстрое развитие эффекта: достоверное улучшение результатов теста «встань и иди» и оценка эффективности лечения врачом и пациентом. При дополнительном опросе больных, принимавших препарат АРТРА МСМ, 36 (72%) отметили более быстрое уменьшение боли по сравнению с таковым при приеме препарата АРТРА. Препарат АРТРА МСМ может быть рекомендован для лечения ОА в клинической практике.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>osteoarthritis</kwd><kwd>knee joint</kwd><kwd>treatment</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>остеоартроз</kwd><kwd>коленный сустав</kwd><kwd>лечение</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>McAlindon T, Bannuru R, Sullivan M, Arden N, Berenbaum F, Bierma-Zeinstra S, Hawker G, Henrotin Y, Hunter D, Kawaguch, H, Kwoh K, Lohmander S, Rannou F, Roos E, Underwood M.
