The main question it aims to answer is:\n\n● Are muscle power and motor control degradation better predictors of falls than muscle strength in the aging population?\n\nParticipants will undergo:\n\n* Muscle force assessment on a dynamometer\n* Muscle power assessment on a dynamometer and on isntrumented stairs\n* Home-based mobility monitoring\n* Full lower limb MRI acquisition\n* Gait assessment", "detailedDescription"=>"Falls are a critical yet common event among the elderly, with huge societal and economic impact (reduced quality of life and high costs for the healthcare system). Experimental measures to quantify the residual muscle strength and power may provide useful information to predict the risk of falls in the elderly. Isometric and isokinetic muscle contractions, performed on a dynamometer or during functional tasks can be collected, together with electromyography (to assess muscle activity) and imaging data (to quantify and characterize muscular tissue).\n\nSuch data can be collected at different time points to monitor subjects over time, and to inform virtual representation of the human musculoskeletal system (digital twins) to identify possible motor control deficits. Moreover, this same information can be used to better characterize/assess elder individuals at risk of falling (e.g., subjects with knee osteoarthritis), to prevent future falls.\n\nAll subjects enrolled in the PowerAGING study will be followed up for 24 months (5 visits in total: M0, M6, M12, M18 and M24 follow-up). At each visit, a series of experimental tests to quantify muscle power and muscle force, as well as a home-based mobility assessment (via single inertial sensor worn for 5 consecutive days), will be performed. In addition, only at start and end, the subjects will undergo a full lower limb MRI and a gait assessment."}, "eligibilityModule"=>{"sex"=>"ALL", "stdAges"=>["OLDER_ADULT"], "maximumAge"=>"80 years", "minimumAge"=>"65 years", "healthyVolunteers"=>false, "eligibilityCriteria"=>"Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age between 65 and 80 years\n* Kellgren score II e III\n* No history of falls in the last 12 months\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Any musculoskeletal, neurological, rheumatic or tumoral diseases\n* Dementia\n* Diabetes\n* Inguinal or abdominal hernia\n* Severe Hypertension (Level 3)\n* Severe Cardio-pulmonary insufficiency\n* Diagnosis of Osteonecrosis in the lower limb joints\n* Pathologies or physical conditions incompatible with the use of magnetic resonance imaging and electrostimulation (i.e., active and passive implanted biomedical devices, epilepsy, severe venous insufficiency in the lower limbs)\n* Previous interventions or traumas to the joints of the lower limb"}, "identificationModule"=>{"nctId"=>"NCT06611618", "acronym"=>"PowerAGING", "briefTitle"=>"Analysis of the Loss of Muscle Force, Muscle Power and Motor Control Degradation to Predict the Risk of Falls in Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis", "organization"=>{"class"=>"OTHER", "fullName"=>"Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli"}, "officialTitle"=>"Analisi Della Perdita di Forza e Potenza Muscolare e Del Degrado Del Controllo Motorio Per la Predizione Delle Cadute in Una Popolazione Affetta da Artrosi di Ginocchio", "orgStudyIdInfo"=>{"id"=>"CE-AVEC 204/2024/Sper/IOR"}}, "armsInterventionsModule"=>{"armGroups"=>[{"type"=>"EXPERIMENTAL", "label"=>"Knee Osteoarthritis", "description"=>"Elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis, without a history of falls (in the 12 months prior to enrollment).\n\nAll subjects will be followed up for 24 months, every 6 months.
