“…The results obtained showed that application of infrared AsGa laser with final energy of 3.0 J per point could be an important auxiliary tool for treating this osteoarticular abnormality. Since this is a relatively common disease among adults and elderly people, especially because of increased life expectancy among the population, many studies have been conducted on OA, with the aim of finding effective resources for pain relief and improved quality of life for these patients (3,28) . It was decided to study this population because of the high demand for treatment of impaired knee joints.…”

Obesity increases the load on the joints and activates the production of proinflammatory adipokine receptors present on the surface of chondrocytes, osteoblasts, and both synovial and subchondral membranes.…”
