  Association between serum n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and quadriceps weakness immediately after total knee arthroplasty
■ 概要
  This study aimed to examine the association between serum n-3 PUFA levels and QW, knee pain, and knee swelling immediately after TKA.A total of 32 patients who underwent unilateral TKA participated in this prospective study. On Postoperative Day 1, serum n-3 PUFA (eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid) levels were measured. Preoperatively and on Postoperative Day 4, quadriceps strength, knee pain during quadriceps testing, and knee circumference were measured.tourniquet time (P = 0.04). No significant relationship was observed between serum n-3 PUFA levels and knee pain or knee swelling.
Higher serum n-3 PUFA are independently associated with a lower increase in the QW immediately after TKA.
