Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study delves into the intriguing connection between knee osteoarthritis and diabetes in Malaysia. Specifically, the exacerbation of knee osteoarthritis in the presence of diabetes in terms of symptoms, physical performance, physical activity, psychological status, social participation, and quality of life was discussed. DESIGN This cross-sectional study recruited adults aged 50 and above by convenient sampling and grouped them into: knee osteoarthritis-diabetes-, knee osteoarthritis+diabetes-, knee osteoarthritis-diabetes+, and knee osteoarthritis+diabetes+. SUBJECTS/PATIENTS Of 436 recruited participants, 261 (59.8%) participants reported knee osteoarthritis. METHODS Handgrip strength, Timed Up and Go test, 6 Meter Walk Test, and 5 Times Sit to Stand Test were measured using standardized procedures. Six questionnaires were administered for the remaining parameters. RESULTS Across groups, there were significant differences: 6 Meter Walk Test (p = 0.024), Timed Up and Go test (p = 0.020), and 5 Times Sit to Stand Test (p < 0.001), quality of life (p = 0.009), and physical activity (p = 0.036). Knee osteoarthritis+diabetes+ was independently associated with reduced handgrip strength, 5 Times Sit to Stand Test, quality of life, and physical inactivity after adjustment. Knee osteoarthritis+diabetes- was independently associated with reduced Timed Up and Go test and social isolation. CONCLUSION The findings revealed the diabetic knee osteoarthritis subgroup's unique physical and psychosocial features of reduced muscle strength and physical inactivity. Future studies should investigate whether managing metabolic factors, and enhancing physical activity and strength exercises, can reduce knee osteoarthritis symptoms and disease severity.

Extended-Release Versus Immediate-Release Triamcinolone Acetonide in Patients Who Have Knee Osteoarthritis and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. J Arthroplasty 2024; 39:S218-S223.e1. [PMID: 38815874 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.05.055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2023] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intra-articular corticosteroid injections may cause hyperglycemia (glucose level >180 mg/dL). In a phase 2 study of 33 patients who had osteoarthritis of the knee and type 2 diabetes mellitus, triamcinolone acetonide extended-release (TA-ER) was associated with minimal glycemic control disruption compared with triamcinolone acetonide immediate-release (TA-IR). This post hoc analysis characterizes the clinical relevance of these results. METHODS Patients who had symptomatic osteoarthritis of the knee for ≥6 months, type 2 diabetes mellitus for ≥1 year, and hemoglobin A1c ≥6.5 and ≤9.0% were randomized to receive an intra-articular injection of either TA-ER or TA-IR. Changes in continuous glucose monitor daily glucose level, percentage of time in or above the target glucose range (>70 to 180 mg/dL), time to glucose level 250 mg/dL and maximum glucose level >250 mg/dL, and glycemic variability were evaluated. RESULTS Across postinjection days 1 to 3, the TA-ER group (n = 18) had a lower median change from baseline in maximum glucose level (92.3 versus 169.1 mg/dL), a reduced percentage of time with a glucose level >250 mg/dL (12 versus 26%), a smaller proportion of patients who had a maximum glucose level >250 mg/dL (50 versus 93%), and a greater percentage of time in the target glucose range (62 versus 48%) versus the TA-IR group (n = 15). There was less glycemic variability and lower glucose spikes in the TA-ER versus TA-IR group. Median times to glucose level 250 mg/dL (44 versus 6 hours) and maximum glucose level (34 versus 13 hours) were significantly longer in the TA-ER versus TA-IR group. CONCLUSIONS Use of TA-ER was associated with a clinically meaningful reduction in hyperglycemia versus TA-IR.

Abstract
Obesity has a pivotal and multifaceted role in pain associated with osteoarthritis (OA), extending beyond the mechanistic influence of BMI. It exerts its effects both directly and indirectly through various modifiable risk factors associated with OA-related pain. Adipose tissue dysfunction is highly involved in OA-related pain through local and systemic inflammation, immune dysfunction, and the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and adipokines. Adipose tissue dysfunction is intricately connected with metabolic syndrome, which independently exerts specific effects on OA-related pain, distinct from its association with BMI. The interplay among obesity, adipose tissue dysfunction and metabolic syndrome influences OA-related pain through diverse pain mechanisms, including nociceptive pain, peripheral sensitization and central sensitization. These complex interactions contribute to the heightened pain experience observed in individuals with OA and obesity. In addition, pain management strategies are less efficient in individuals with obesity. Importantly, therapeutic interventions targeting obesity and metabolic syndrome hold promise in managing OA-related pain. A deeper understanding of the intricate relationship between obesity, metabolic syndrome and OA-related pain is crucial and could have important implications for improving pain management and developing innovative therapeutic options in OA.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic syndrome that has been identified as an independent risk factor for osteoarthritis (OA) and may even trigger and exacerbate the progression of OA. However, the relationship between T2DM and OA is complex and has not yet been fully clarified by current research. In this study, we analyzed the potential mechanism of action between T2DM and OA by bioinformatics. Transcriptome sequencing data of T2DM (GSE25724) and OA (GSE55235) were downloaded from the gene expression omnibus. Differential expression analysis was performed for different subgroups to obtain differentially expressed genes. The protein-protein interaction network was constructed using overlapping genes and screened for hub targets. Then the enrichment analysis was performed separately for overlapping and hub targets. The GeneMANIA is used to predict functionally similar genes of hub genes. Differential expression analyses revealed that 184 genes are involved in both diseases together. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment results showed that the overlapping genes were mainly involved in the advanced glycation end products-receptor of advanced glycation end products signaling pathway, the NF-kappa B signaling pathway, the mitogen-activated protein kinases signaling pathway, and the interleukin-17 signaling pathway in diabetic complications. The functions of genes similar to the hub genes are focused on cell chemotaxis, positive regulation of cell migration, positive regulation of RNA polymerase II transcription, regulation of leukocyte migration, epithelial cell proliferation, and integrated stress response signaling. The transcription factor Jun and C-X-C motif chemokine 8 may play an important role in the inflammatory response caused by advanced glycation end products. This study improves our understanding of T2DM complicating OA and helps to stimulate more effective treatments.

Abstract
The association between insulin resistance (IR) and the risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality among osteoarthritis (OA) patients remains uncertain. This study aims to clarify the correlation between a novel marker of IR, the triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI), and the risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in OA patients. Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning from 1999 to 2020 were analyzed. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis and restricted cubic spline plots were employed to elucidate the association between the TyG-BMI index and the risk of all-cause mortality or cardiovascular mortality in OA patients. Additionally, subgroup analysis was conducted to explore potential interactions and identify populations at elevated risk of mortality. The study cohort comprised 4097 OA patients who were followed up for a period of 20 years, during which 1197 cases of all-cause mortality and 329 cases of mortality attributed to cardiovascular disease were recorded. Our findings revealed a U-shaped nonlinear relationship between the TyG-BMI index and the risk of all-cause mortality or cardiovascular mortality in OA patients, with the lowest mortality risk thresholds identified at 282 and 270, respectively. Moreover, surpassing these thresholds was associated with a 3% increase in the risk of all-cause mortality and a 5% increase in the risk of cardiovascular mortality for every 10-unit increment in TyG-BMI level. Among American OA patients, a U-shaped nonlinear relationship exists between the TyG-BMI index and the risk of all-cause mortality or cardiovascular mortality. These findings underscore the significant role of IR in the progression of OA.

Abstract
PURPOSE Metformin (MTF) shows promise in protecting against physical decline in osteoarthritis (OA), but how it works remains unclear. We studied MTF's effects on gut permeability and its link to physical performance in OA patients. METHODS We studied four groups: control (n = 72), OA non-diabetic (n = 58), OA diabetic on MTF (n = 55), and OA diabetic on other anti-diabetics (n = 57). We measured zonulin levels, as intestinal permeability marker, hand-grip strength (HGS), Oxford knee scoring (OKS) to determine OA severity, and short performance physical battery (SPPB) to determine physical functions. RESULTS Patients suffering from OA showed a reduction in HGS and SPPB scores with raised plasma zonulin than controls, irrespective of disease severity. MTF decreased plasma zonulin levels and improved OKS, gait speed, HGS, and SPPB scores in OA patients. However, OA patients taking other anti-diabetic medications demonstrated higher levels of plasma zonulin, reduced HGS, and SPPB scores. Furthermore, a robust correlation of plasma zonulin and HGS, OKS, gait speed, and SPPB scores in OA patients on MTF was observed. Moreover, we found reduced oxidative stress and inflammation associated with these alterations in OA patients treated with MTF. CONCLUSION MTF improves HGS and physical performance by lowering zonulin levels, preserving gut permeability in OA patients.

Unravelling relationships between obesity, diabetes, and factors related to somatosensory functioning in knee osteoarthritis patients. Clin Rheumatol 2024; 43:2637-2645. [PMID: 38913223 PMCID: PMC11269413 DOI: 10.1007/s10067-024-07022-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/25/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study explores the association between obesity, diabetes, and somatosensory functioning in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA), aiming to understand how metabolic conditions are related to pain mechanisms in this patient population. We hypothesized that higher body mass index (BMI), fat mass, and glycated hemoglobin levels (HbA1c) are associated with signs of altered somatosensory functioning. METHODS A cross-sectional analysis was conducted as part of a larger multicentre prospective cohort study. Data were collected from patients awaiting total knee arthroplasty in Belgium and the Netherlands. Associations between BMI, fat mass, HbA1c, and various pain-related variables were examined employing Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses which were further analyzed with linear regression techniques. RESULTS The study included 223 participants. Analysis revealed a significant although weak negative correlation between fat mass and pressure pain thresholds (PPT) at multiple locations, suggesting a link between higher fat mass and increased mechanical hyperalgesia. There were no significant correlations between BMI and pain-related outcomes. HbA1c levels showed very weak positive correlations with pain measures but did not withstand correction for multiple testing. CONCLUSION The findings indicate that fat mass may be closely associated with altered somatosensory functioning in patients with knee OA. However, no significant correlations were found between BMI or HbA1c levels and pain-related outcomes. Future research should focus on longitudinal studies to elucidate the causal relationships and further explore the impact of metabolic factors on pain mechanisms in this patient population. Key Points • The findings indicate that fat mass may be closely associated with altered somatosensory functioning in patients with knee OA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the association of diabetes with postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). DESIGN Retrospective cohort study using data from the US National Inpatient Sample (NIS). SETTING Study cohort was hospitalisations for primary THA in the USA, identified from the 2016-2020 NIS. PARTICIPANTS We identified 2 467 215 adults in the 2016-2020 NIS who underwent primary THA using International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision codes. Primary THA hospitlizations were analysed as the overall group and also stratified by the underlying primary diagnosis for THA. OUTCOME MEASURES Outcome measures of interest were the length of hospital stay>the median, total hospital charges>the median, inpatient mortality, non-routine discharge, need for blood transfusion, prosthetic fracture, prosthetic dislocation and postprocedural infection, including periprosthetic joint infection, deep surgical site infection and postprocedural sepsis. RESULTS Among 2 467 215 patients who underwent primary THA, the mean age was 68.7 years, 58.3% were female, 85.7% were white, 61.7% had Medicare payer and 20.4% had a Deyo-Charlson index (adjusted to exclude diabetes mellitus) of 2 or higher. 416 850 (17%) patients had diabetes. In multivariable-adjusted logistic regression in the overall cohort, diabetes was associated with higher odds of a longer hospital stay (adjusted OR (aOR) 1.38; 95% CI 1.35 to 1.41), higher total charges (aOR 1.11; 95% CI 1.09 to 1.13), non-routine discharge (aOR 1.18; 95% CI 1.15 to 1.20), the need for blood transfusion (aOR 1.19; 95% CI 1.15 to 1.23), postprocedural infection (aOR 1.62; 95% CI 1.10 to 2.40) and periprosthetic joint infection (aOR 1.91; 95% CI 1.12 to 3.24). We noted a lack of some associations in the avascular necrosis and inflammatory arthritis cohorts (p>0.05). CONCLUSION Diabetes was associated with increased healthcare utilisation, blood transfusion and postprocedural infection risk following primary THA. Optimisation of diabetes with preoperative medical management and/or institution of specific postoperative pathways may improve these outcomes. Larger studies are needed in avascular necrosis and inflammatory arthritis cohorts undergoing primary THA.

Abstract
Introduction Diabetes and osteoarthritis (OA) are prevalent chronic conditions, often occurring concurrently and complicating patient management. While the individual impact of each condition on functional impairment is well documented, their combined effect remains poorly understood. This study aims to elucidate the relationship between diabetes and OA-related functional impairment. Methodology This was a cross-sectional study of 290 participants with unilateral knee OA. Their demographic, clinical, and diabetes data were collected. Functional impairment was assessed using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index-Center for Rheumatic Diseases (WOMAC-CRD). Statistical analyses investigated the relationships between diabetes, OA severity, and functional impairment. Result Diabetic participants showed significantly worse physical function and overall disability, with lower WOMAC-CRD scores. Mean WOMAC-CRD pain scores were 6.46 (SD = 1.088) and 6.48 (SD = 1.101) for the diabetic and non-diabetic groups, respectively. Mean WOMAC-CRD stiffness scores were 6.48 (SD = 1.101) and 6.56 (SD = 1.083) for diabetic and non-diabetic groups. Diabetic participants had a mean WOMAC-CRD physical function score of 55.93 (SD = 2.484), compared to 64.02 (SD = 2.542) for non-diabetic participants. The mean total WOMAC score was 68.80 (SD = 2.857) for diabetic participants and 77.06 (SD = 2.933) for non-diabetic participants. Longer diabetes duration correlated negatively with physical function and total WOMAC scores. Discussion The findings suggest that diabetes exacerbates functional impairment in OA patients, particularly affecting physical function and overall disability. Chronic inflammation and the accumulation of advanced glycation end-products may contribute to the observed deterioration in joint function. Conclusion Integrated management strategies addressing both diabetes and OA are essential for optimizing patient care.

These patients were part of a randomized controlled trial and met the criteria of having OA and a BMI of ≥30 kg/m2. Blood samples were collected to assess serum levels of glucose, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and leptin. Total body composition was measured using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Gene expressions of IL6, TNFA, COL1A1, IL1B, ASMA, PLOD2 in the IFP were analyzed. Results Univariate analysis resulted in a positive correlation between BMI and procollagen-lysine,2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 2 (PLOD2) expression (r2 = 0.13). In univariate analyses of obesity-linked systemic factors and PLOD2, significant correlations were found for lean mass (r2 = 0.20), fat mass (r2 = 0.20), serum cholesterol (r2 = 0.17), serum triglycerides (r2 = 0.19) and serum leptin (r2 = 0.10). A multiple linear regression model indicated fat mass to be a strong predictor of PLOD2 production in the IFP (r2 = 0.22, P = 0.003). Conclusion Our study demonstrates the positive association between fat mass and PLOD2 expression in the IFP of obese end-stage knee OA patients. This may indicate that within this patient population the fibrotic process in the IFP is influenced by systemic adipose tissue, next to local inflammatory processes.

Eur J Phys Rehabil Med 2024; 60:496-504. [PMID: 38647532 PMCID: PMC11258910 DOI: 10.23736/s1973-9087.24.08034-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2023] [Revised: 11/06/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The primary aim of this study was to longitudinally examine the impact of diabetes mellitus (DM) on physical performance measures including Gait Speed and Chair Stand tests over 8 years of follow-up in people with or at risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA). DESIGN A prospective longitudinal study. SETTING Multisite community based. POPULATION This study included participants with or at risk of knee OA aged from 45 to 79 years from the Osteoarthritis Initiative from baseline to 96 months follow-up. METHODS The participants performed physical performance measures using a 20 m Walk Test for Gait Speed and 5 Times Sit To Stand for repeated chair stand test time at baseline and during follow-up visits. Participants were asked about the presence of diabetes mellitus (DM) at baseline and categorized into with or without DM. Generalized estimating equations were utilized with 2 models, one for DM and Gait Speed and the other for DM and Repeated Chair Stand Test after controlling for covariates including age, sex, education, Body Mass Index (BMI), depressive symptoms, physical activity level, baseline number of comorbidities, and baseline Kellgren and Lawrence grades for OA grading for each knee. RESULTS A total of 4796 participants were included and categorized into those with DM (N.=362) and without DM (N.=4311) at baseline. Participants with DM at baseline showed significantly declined gait speed (B=-0.048, 95% Confidence Interval [95% CI]: [-0.07, -0.02], P<0.001) and significantly an increased time for repeated chair stand test (B=0.49, 95% CI: [0.08, 0.89], P=0.018) over time when compared to those without DM at baseline, after controlling for covariates. CONCLUSIONS DM was associated with negative impact on Gait Speed and Repeated Chair Stand Test time in individuals with or at risk of knee OA. Individuals with knee OA and diabetes who exhibit declining physical performance measures are at risk of functional dependence, reduced quality of life, and complex rehabilitation requirements.

Equivalent Clinical Outcomes in Patients Requiring Advanced Imaging Prior to Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty. J Arthroplasty 2024:S0883-5403(24)00515-1. [PMID: 38776991 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.05.043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Plain radiographs remain the standard for diagnosing osteoarthritis (OA). Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is generally offered only for advanced OA by plain radiographs. Advanced imaging is used as an adjunct to assess OA severity in cases of progressive symptoms with less advanced OA by plain radiographs. The objective of this study was to compare outcomes following THA in patients who have advanced OA visualized by plain radiographs to patients who have less severe OA visualized by plain radiographs. METHODS From February 2016 to February 2020, 93 patients who had Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grade 0 to 2 OA and underwent THA were identified. The median age was 65 years, and 55% were women. They were matched 1:3 to patients who underwent THA for KL 4 OA based on age, sex, BMI, and Charlson Comorbidity Index. The primary outcome was achievement of the Hip Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Joint Replacement (HOOS JR) minimum clinically important difference (MCID), substantial clinical benefit (SCB), and patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) at 1 year postoperatively. RESULTS There was no difference between the KL 0 to 2 and KL 4 cohorts in the achievement of HOOS JR MCID (86 versus 85.6%, P = 0.922), SCB (81.7 versus 80.2%, P = 0.751), or PASS (89.2 versus 85.6%, P = 0.374). The KL 0 to 2 cohort had a similar improvement in their 2-year HOOS JR (42.5 versus 38.6, P = 0.019). CONCLUSION In this series, there was no difference in outcomes following primary THA between patients who have severe OA on plain radiographs (KL 4) compared to those who have less severe OA (KL 0 to 2). In the setting of severe symptoms and the absence of advanced OA on radiographs, advanced imaging can be used to guide treatment and select patients who could benefit from THA.

The impact of diabetes status on pain and physical function following total joint arthroplasty for hip and knee osteoarthritis: variation by sex and body mass index. Sci Rep 2024; 14:11152. [PMID: 38750058 PMCID: PMC11096302 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-61847-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Few studies have examined diabetes impact on total joint arthroplasty (TJA) outcomes, with variable findings. We investigated the association between diabetes and post-TJA physical function and pain, examining whether diabetes impact differs by sex and BMI. Patient sample completed questionnaires within 3 months prior to hip or knee TJA for osteoarthritis (OA) and 1-year post-surgery. Surgical 'non-response' was defined as < 30% improvement in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain and physical function at 1-year. Two adjusted logistic regression models were estimated: (1) excluding, (2) including an interaction between diabetes, sex and BMI. The sample (626 hip, 754 knee) was 54.9% female, had mean BMI of 30.1, 13.0% reported diabetes. In adjusted models excluding an interaction, diabetes was not associated with non-response. However, a significant 3-way interaction (physical function: p = 0.003; pain: p = 0.006) between diabetes, sex, and BMI was found and was associated with non-response: non-response probability increased with increasing BMI in men with diabetes, but decreased with increasing BMI in women in diabetes. Findings suggest uncertainty in diabetes impact may be due to differential impacts by sex and BMI. A simple consideration of diabetes as present vs. absent may not be sufficient, with implications for the large TJA population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of diabetes on physical and mental health status, as well as patient satisfaction, one-year following knee and hip total joint arthroplasty (TJA) for osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS Participants were 626 hip and 754 knee TJA patients. Pre-surgery data were collected on socio-demographics and health status. The 12-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) was collected pre- and one year post-surgery, and physical (PCS) and mental component (MCS) summary scores computed. One-year patient satisfaction was also recorded. Four regression models tested the effect of diabetes on: 1) PCS change score; 2) MCS change score; 3) achieving minimal clinically important improvement (MCII) on PCS; and 4) patient satisfaction ('Somewhat or Very Satisfied' vs. 'Somewhat or Very Dissatisfied'). An interaction between surgical joint and diabetes was tested in each model. RESULTS Self-reported diabetes prevalence was 13.0% (95% CI: 11.2%-14.7%) and was more common in knee 16.1% (95% CI: 13.4%-18.7%) than hip 9.3% (95% CI: 7.0%-11.5%) patients. In adjusted analyses, change scores were 2.3 units less on the PCS for those with diabetes compared to those without (p = 0.005). Patients with diabetes were about half as likely to achieve MCII as patients without diabetes (p = 0.004). Diabetes was not significantly associated with satisfaction or changes in MCS scores. Diabetes effects did not differ by surgical joint. CONCLUSIONS Findings support that diabetes has a negative impact on improvements in physical health after TJA. Considering the growing prevalence of OA and diabetes in the population, our findings support the importance of perioperative screening and management of diabetes in patients undergoing TJA.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) and diabetes mellitus (DM) have long-term deleterious chronic effects and are among the most prevalent chronic disorders. DM and its associated factors, such as hyperglycemia, have a significant contribution to the pathophysiology of OA, particularly in post-menopausal women. Women who have uncontrolled diabetes (DM) are more prone to develop osteoarthritis (OA), which may be exacerbated by poor glycemic control. Furthermore, this category of female patients with DM has an increased risk of developing fractures, even in those with initially normal bone density scores, further illustrating the correlation between DM and bone health. Additionally, multiple risk factors, including obesity, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, estrogen-based hormone therapy, and hyperuricemia, in menopausal women can lead to the development and exacerbation of OA. It is discovered that these variables have a direct or indirect impact, frequently causing inflammation and hormonal changes, which contribute to the intricate interaction between DM and OA. The management of OA and DM in women thus calls for a multi-faceted management plan including glycemic control, weight control, exercise, and specialized pain management methods catering to the specific requirements of the patients. Regularly screening for OA should be implemented for menopausal women with DM and utmost care should be provided by healthcare professionals. Regular monitoring of joint health and early management, encouraging interdisciplinary cooperation, putting preventative measures into place, and creating individualized treatment programs are essential. A thorough understanding of the link between DM and OA will ultimately lead to improved health outcomes and a better future for these individuals.

Classifying Multimorbidity Using Drug Concepts via the Rx-Risk Comorbidity Index: Methods and Comparative Cross-Sectional Study. Arthritis Care Res (Hoboken) 2024; 76:559-569. [PMID: 37986017 DOI: 10.1002/acr.25273] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2022] [Revised: 06/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study objective was to update a method to identify comorbid conditions using only medication information in circumstances in which diagnosis codes may be undercaptured, such as in single-specialty electronic health records (EHRs), and to compare the distribution of comorbidities across Rx-Risk versus other traditional comorbidity indices. METHODS Using First Databank, RxNorm, and its web-based clients, RxNav and RxClass, we mapped Drug Concept Unique Identifiers (RxCUIs), National Drug Codes (NDCs), and Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) codes to Rx-Risk, a medication-focused comorbidity index. In established rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) cohorts within the Rheumatology Informatics System for Effectiveness registry, we then compared Rx-Risk with other comorbidity indices, including the Charlson Comorbidity Index, Rheumatic Disease Comorbidity Index (RDCI), and Elixhauser. RESULTS We identified 965 unique ingredient RxCUIs representing the 46 Rx-Risk comorbidity categories. After excluding dosage form and ingredient related RxCUIs, 80,911 unique associated RxCUIs were mapped to the index. Additionally, 187,024 unique NDCs and 354 ATC codes were obtained and mapped to the index categories. When compared to traditional comorbidity indices in the RA cohort, the median score for Rx-Risk (median 6.00 [25th percentile 2, 75th percentile 9]) was much greater than for Charlson (median 0 [25th percentile 0, 75th percentile 0]), RDCI (median 0 [25th percentile 0, 75th percentile 0]), and Elixhauser (median 1 [25th percentile 1, 75th percentile 1]). Analyses of the OA cohort yielded similar results. For patients with a Charlson score of 0 (85% of total), both the RDCI and Elixhauser were close to 1, but the Rx-Risk score ranged from 0 to 16 or more. CONCLUSION The misclassification and under-ascertainment of comorbidities in single-specialty EHRs can largely be overcome by using a medication-focused comorbidity index.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether osteoarthritis (OA) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD); whether there are differences concerning ischaemic heart disease (IHD), congestive heart failure (CHF) and stroke; and whether there are differences between OA sites (hips, knees and hand) in predicting CVD onset. DESIGN Population-based matched case-control study. SETTING Health insurance claims data among Japanese patients. PARTICIPANTS Japanese patients aged ≥65 years with newly diagnosed CVD and hospitalised between January 2015 and December 2020 (cases) and age-matched and sex-matched 1:1 individuals (controls). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES A conditional logistic regression model was used to estimate the adjusted ORs and their 95% CIs for CVD, IHD, CHF and stroke risk, adjusting for covariates. RESULTS A total of 79 296 patients were included, with respect to CVD (39 648 patients with newly diagnosed CVD and 39 648 controls). After adjustment for covariates, the exposure odds of knee OA (KOA), hip OA (HipOA) and hand OA (HandOA) for CVD were 1.192 (95% CI 1.115 to 1.274), 1.057 (95% CI 0.919 to 1.215) and 1.035 (95% CI 0.684 to 1.566), respectively, showing an association only for KOA. The exposure odds of KOA, HipOA and HandOA for IHD were 1.187 (95% CI 1.086 to 1.297), 1.078 (95% CI 0.891 to 1.306) and 1.099 (95% CI 0.677 to 1.784), respectively. The exposure odds of KOA, HipOA and HandOA for stroke were 1.221 (95% CI 1.099 to 1.356), 0.918 (95% CI 0.723 to 1.165) and 1.169 (95% CI 0.635 to 2.151), respectively. Similar to CVD, only KOA was associated with both. For CHF, neither KOA nor HipOA and HandOA were associated with CHF development. CONCLUSION This study confirms the association of KOA with CVD, particularly IHD and stroke, in the Japanese population. The finding that patients with KOA have a higher CVD risk can potentially assist in guiding future treatment strategies.

Abstract
Obesity is one of the main modifiable risk factors for osteoarthritis (OA). Moreover, obesity is associated with greater pain intensity and functional limitation, but also with a significantly lower responder rate to intra-articular treatments. Consequently, an arthroplasty is indicated earlier and more frequently in patients with obesity. However, pain and functional symptoms improve slightly less after arthroplasty in patients with obesity, who display higher incidence of early and late complications following prosthetic surgery. Bariatric surgery (BS) has increased worldwide and is efficient to induce major and sustainable weight-loss. Importantly, BS significantly reduces pain and functional limitation in patients with symptomatic knee OA. Biomarkers analysis also revealed a decrease in catabolic factors and an increase in anabolic one after BS suggesting a structural protective effect in knee OA. Nevertheless, the impact of BS prior to arthroplasty remains unclear. BS seems to decrease short- and mid-term complications such as infections or thrombosis. However, BS does not appear to modify long-term complications rate, and may even increase it, especially revisions and infections. Although few studies have compared the symptomatic and functional outcomes of joint replacement with or without BS, these are not significantly improved by prior BS. Despite these heterogeneous results, medico-economic studies found that BS prior to arthroplasty was cost-effective. To conclude, BS could significantly reduce the symptoms of OA and potentially slow its progression, but appears more disappointing in preventing long-term complications of arthroplasties and improving their functional results.

Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:2851. [PMID: 38474098 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25052851] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2024] [Revised: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 02/16/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) represents a significant health problem globally and is linked to a number of complications such as cardiovascular disease, bone fragility and periodontitis. Autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) are a promising therapeutic approach for bone and periodontal regeneration; however, the effect of T2DM on the expression of osteogenic and periodontal markers in BM-MSCs is not fully established. Furthermore, the effect of the presence of comorbidities such as diabetes and osteoarthritis on BM-MSCs is also yet to be investigated. In the present study, BM-MSCs were isolated from osteoarthritic knee joints of diabetic and nondiabetic donors. Both cell groups were compared for their clonogenicity, proliferation rates, MSC enumeration and expression of surface markers. Formation of calcified deposits and expression of osteogenic and periodontal markers were assessed after 1, 2 and 3 weeks of basal and osteogenic culture. Diabetic and nondiabetic BM-MSCs showed similar clonogenic and growth potentials along with comparable numbers of MSCs. However, diabetic BM-MSCs displayed lower expression of periostin (POSTN) and cementum protein 1 (CEMP-1) at Wk3 osteogenic and Wk1 basal cultures, respectively. BM-MSCs from T2DM patients might be suitable candidates for stem cell-based therapeutics. However, further investigations into these cells' behaviours in vitro and in vivo under inflammatory environments and hyperglycaemic conditions are still required.

Abstract
The interplay between immune cells/macrophages and fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) plays a pivotal role in initiating synovitis; however, their involvement in metabolic disorders, including diabetic osteoarthritis (DOA), is largely unknown. In this study, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is employed to investigate the synovial cell composition of DOA. A significant enrichment of activated macrophages within eight distinct synovial cell clusters is found in DOA synovium. Moreover, it is demonstrated that increased glycolysis in FLSs is a key driver for DOA patients' synovial macrophage infiltration and polarization. In addition, the yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1)/thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) signaling axis is demonstrated to play a crucial role in regulating glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1)-dependent glycolysis in FLSs, thereby controlling the expression of a series of adhesion molecules such as intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) which may subsequently fine-tune the infiltration of M1-polarized synovial macrophages in DOA patients and db/db diabetic OA mice. For treatment, M1 macrophage membrane-camouflaged Verteporfin (Vt)-loaded PLGA nanoparticles (MVPs) are developed to ameliorate DOA progression by regulating the YAP1/TXNIP signaling axis, thus suppressing the synovial glycolysis and the infiltration of M1-polarized macrophages. The results provide several novel insights into the pathogenesis of DOA and offer a promising treatment approach for DOA.

Abstract
Introduction Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a growing public health problem causing a significant amount of disability and mortality in Nigeria. Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are common complications associated with DM. However, studies on the prevalence of MSDs and their associated factors are limited in Nigeria, particularly in the northwest region. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of MSDs and their associated factors among individuals with DM in northwest, Nigeria. Material and methods A retrospective cross-sectional survey of medical case records of all consecutive patients with DM attending a diabetic clinic in Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital, Zaria was conducted between February 2015 and September 2021. Data on sociodemographic and clinical variables was collected using a researcher-designed questionnaire and analysed using descriptive statistics and logistic regression models. Results Four hundred eighty-nine cases (170 men [34.8%], 319 females [65.2%]; mean age: 51.4 ±12.3 years) were analysed. The majority of the participants had type 2 DM (96.7%), with a mean DM duration of 7.02 ±5.05 years. The overall prevalence of MSDs was 32.7%, with the highest prevalence found for lumbosacral spondylosis (11%) followed by knee osteoarthritis (8.4%). Among the different potential predictors examined, only duration of DM was significantly associated with overall MSDs (AOR: 1.76, 95% CI: 1.04-2.98; p = 0.035) whereas both duration of DM (AOR: 2.64, 95% CI: 1.19-5.89; p = 0.018) and body mass index (AOR: 7.461, 95% CI: 1.33-43.8; p = 0.023) were significantly associated with lumbosacral spondylosis. Conclusions Approximately one-third of the study participants had MSDs, with lumbosacral spondylosis being the most frequently occurring disorder. Being obese and having a longer duration of DM were associated with MSDs. Clinicians in Nigeria need to pay attention to MSDs and related factors in DM patients by conducting routine assessments and implementing early treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is one of the most common conditions resulting in disability, particularly in the elderly population. Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common articular disease and the leading cause of chronic disability in the developed world. OBJECTIVE This study was carried out to evaluate knee pain in the Asir region of Saudi Arabia. An analytical cross-sectional survey design was adopted in the Asir region from April 2023 to August 2023 to assess the knee pain of the adult population using an anonymous online questionnaire. RESULTS Of 1234, 332 were men (26.90) and 902 were women (73.09). WOMAC index score category 55.34% (n = 683) of the subjects had a low risk (score <60), 28.68% (n = 354) had a moderate risk (score 60-80), and 15.96% (n = 197) had a high risk (score ≥81) for KOA. According to clinical criteria, 79.33% (n = 979) of the study subjects had OA. Age group, gender 2.17 (1. 67-2.82) [OR 2.17; 95% CI 1.67-2.82), family history of OA [OR 0.47; 95% CI 0.37-0.62], diabetes [OR 2.78; 95% CI 2.17-3.56], hypertension [OR 0.35; 95% CI 0.26-0.45] were significantly associated with the percentage of the WOMAC index score using the Chi-square test analysis (P<0.05). Therefore, the WOMAC index showed higher diagnostic precision with a statistically significant association [OR 9.31 CI 6.90-12.81] with a P< 0.0001. CONCLUSION KOA is more common in older, obese people who have reached the age of 50 in the Asir region, and it is more prevalent in women. Alarms the need for appropriate awareness programs for better disease prevention and health outcomes for the benefit of the community through general public health programs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to explore the association between ideal cardiovascular health metrics (ICVHM) and arthritis (AR), as well as the interactions of various indicators in ICVHM on AR in US adults. METHODS We involved 17,041 participants who were interviewed by NHANES from 2011 to 2018. AR included osteoarthritis or degenerative arthritis (OA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and psoriatic arthritis and other arthritis (Other AR). Logistic regression was applied to analyze the association between AR and ICVHM. Mixed graphical model (MGM) was used to explore the interaction between variables in ICVHM. RESULTS Higher ICVHM scores had a protective effect on AR. Compared to "≤1" score, the ORs of AR in participants with 2, 3, 4, and ≥5 were 0.586, 0.472, 0.259, and 0.130, respectively. Similar results were also found in different types of AR. ICVHM has a maximum area under the curve value of 0.765 and the interaction between blood pressure and total cholesterol was 0.43. CONCLUSIONS ICVHM correlates significantly with AR and is better at identifying AR than individual indicators. ICVHM can be better improved by controlling the indicators with stronger interactions. Our findings provide guidance for promoting health factors, which have important implications for identification and prevention of AR.

Abstract
Introduction Diabetes is a chronic disorder with long-term sequelae and multisystem manifestation. Burden of diabetes in on the rise. Presence of other morbidities can not only have a detrimental effect on the disease treatment and recovery course, but also on the financial burden and quality of life. Present study aims to investigate how musculoskeletal conditions affect individuals with diabetes compared to those without the condition. Material and Methods A comparative study was conducted among patients attending the outpatient department of a tertiary care hospital in North India to assess the burden of musculoskeletal disorders in people with and without diabetes. A total of 195 diabetes patients and an equal number of individuals without diabetes were sequentially enrolled from the outpatient department (OPD). Results Burden of musculoskeletal comorbidities was significantly higher (46.2%) among people with diabetes than the comparison group (25.1%). The overall odds ratio (OR) for comorbidities of musculoskeletal system was 2.5 times higher in diabetes cases as compared to individuals without diabetes. The OR for rheumatoid arthritis, chronic backache, and osteoarthritis was found to be 3.6, 2.9, and 1.7 respectively. Poor quality of life and higher direct cost of treatment were found among diabetes cases with musculoskeletal comorbidities as against those without these comorbidities. Conclusion Presence of musculoskeletal comorbidity is high among diabetes patients, and it has an impact on the quality of life and treatment cost. Screening for musculoskeletal comorbidities should be included as part of the diabetes complication assessment to allow for early detection and treatment.

Abstract
Purpose To assess if metformin could reduce the risk of total hip arthroplasty (THA) in elderly patients with hip osteoarthritis and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Patients and Methods It is a retrospective study among elderly patients (≥65 years) with hip osteoarthritis and T2DM. All included patients were divided into metformin group and non-metformin group, then propensity-score match (PSM) was performed to control potential confounding factors. The primary endpoint was the incidence of the first THA during the study period. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was employed to evaluate the association of metformin with the risk of THA. Results A matched cohort of 716 patients were finally included, with 308 metformin users and 308 metformin non-users. During a maximum follow-up of 10 years, the incidence of THA in metformin users was significantly lower than that in non-users (4.9% vs 25.0%, P<0.01). Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that metformin users were significantly associated with a lower risk of THA compared with non-users (HR = 0.17, 95% CI: 0.10-0.30; P<0.01). In addition, further analyses indicated that participants with long-term metformin use (HR = 0.10, 95% CI: 0.02-0.46; P<0.01) or high metformin dosage (HR = 0.15, 95% CI: 0.04-0.57; P<0.01) had a lower risk of THA. Conclusion Metformin use could reduce the risk of THA in patients with hip osteoarthritis and T2DM, and the effect is accumulative and dose dependent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Physical inactivity is an independent risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D). Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease that limits patients' physical activity, which may increase risk of other chronic diseases including T2D. However, studies evaluating the effect of OA on T2D are scarce. This study aimed to investigate the causal effect of knee and hip OA on risk of T2D from a genetic perspective. METHODS We performed two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses to obtain nonconfounding estimates of the effect of OA on T2D risk. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from genome-wide association studies were selected as genetic instruments for radiographic knee and hip OA (ie, Kellgren-Lawrence grade ≥2). The associations of these SNPs with T2D were evaluated in participants from the UK Biobank. Sensitivity analyses were conducted to test the robustness of the MR results. RESULTS Genetic predisposition of knee but not hip OA was significantly associated with an increased risk of T2D (knee OA: odds ratio [OR] 1.18, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.09-1.27, p <.001; hip OA: OR 1.04, 95% CI 0.94-1.16, p = .425). Sensitivity analyses showed that the main findings are robust. CONCLUSION The current study provides genetic evidence supporting that knee OA is a potential risk factor for T2D.

Abstract
PURPOSE To describe 1-week and 1-year prevalence of spinal pain and its consequences in relation to leisure activity, work-life, and care-seeking in people with type 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). METHODS A cross-sectional survey including adults diagnosed with DM from two Danish secondary care centres. Using the Standardised Nordic Questionnaire, spinal pain prevalence (cervical, thoracic, lumbar) and its consequences were evaluated (proportions, 95% confidence intervals) and compared to the general population. RESULTS Among 3767 people, 1-week and 1-year spinal pain prevalence were 11.6-32.4 and 18.5-49.6%, respectively, highest for lumbar pain (24.6-49.6%). The prevalence was similar between DM types for cervical and thoracic pain, but higher in type 2 for lumbar spine. Women had higher pain prevalence across spinal regions and DM types, while cervical and thoracic pain estimates were higher for age < 60 vs. ≥ 60. Within the past year, > 50% reported pain > 30 days, high proportions had reduced their activities (leisure time, 43.7-63.9%; work, 20.7-33.3%), 13.3-28.1% reported sick-leave > 30 days, and 44.3-48.5% had sought care due to spinal pain. CONCLUSION Spinal pain is common in people with type 1 and 2 DM, resulting in considerable consequences for work/leisure activities, sick-leave, and healthcare utilisation as compared to the general population.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disorder, with a social and financial burden that is expected to increase in the coming years. Currently, there are no effective medications to treat it. Due to limited treatment options, patients often resort to supplements, such as collagen hydrolysates (CHs). CHs are products with low molecular weight (MW) peptides, often between 3 and 6 kDa, and are a result of industrialized processed collagen. Collagen extraction is often a by-product of the meat industry, with the main source for collagen-based products being bovine, although it can also be obtained from porcine and piscine sources. CHs have demonstrated positive results in clinical trials related to joint health, such as decreased joint pain, increased mobility, and structural joint improvements. The bioactivity of CHs is primarily attributed to their bioactive peptide (BAP) content. However, there are significant knowledge gaps regarding the digestion, bioavailability, and bioactivity of CH-derived BAPs, and how different CH products compare in that regard. The present review discusses CHs and their BAP content as potential treatments for OA.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Metabolic syndrome (MetS), also called the 'deadly quartet' comprising obesity, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and hypertension, has been ascertained to have a causal role in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA). This review is aimed at discussing the current knowledge on the contribution of metabolic syndrome and its various components to OA pathogenesis and progression. RECENT FINDINGS Lately, an increased association identified between the various components of metabolic syndrome (obesity, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and hypertension) with OA has led to the identification of the 'metabolic phenotype' of OA. These metabolic perturbations alongside low-grade systemic inflammation have been identified to inflict detrimental effects upon multiple tissues of the joint including cartilage, bone, and synovium leading to complete joint failure in OA. Recent epidemiological and clinical findings affirm that adipokines significantly contribute to inflammation, tissue degradation, and OA pathogenesis mediated through multiple signaling pathways. OA is no longer perceived as just a 'wear and tear' disease and the involvement of the metabolic components in OA pathogenesis adds up to the complexity of the disease. Given the global surge in obesity and its allied metabolic perturbations, this review aims to throw light on the current knowledge on the pathophysiology of MetS-associated OA and the need to address MetS in the context of metabolic OA management. Better regulation of the constituent factors of MetS could be profitable in preventing MetS-associated OA. The identification of key roles for several metabolic regulators in OA pathogenesis has also opened up newer avenues in the recognition and development of novel therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Multimorbidity is a rising public health challenge with important implications for health management and policy. The most common multimorbidity pattern is the combination of cardiometabolic and osteoarticular diseases. Here, we study the genetic underpinning of the comorbidity between type 2 diabetes and osteoarthritis. We find genome-wide genetic correlation between the two diseases and robust evidence for association-signal colocalization at 18 genomic regions. We integrate multi-omics and functional information to resolve the colocalizing signals and identify high-confidence effector genes, including FTO and IRX3, which provide proof-of-concept insights into the epidemiologic link between obesity and both diseases. We find enrichment for lipid metabolism and skeletal formation pathways for signals underpinning the knee and hip osteoarthritis comorbidities with type 2 diabetes, respectively. Causal inference analysis identifies complex effects of tissue-specific gene expression on comorbidity outcomes. Our findings provide insights into the biological basis for the type 2 diabetes-osteoarthritis disease co-occurrence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the annual and period prevalence of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors (MCVRFs) between populations with and without osteoarthritis (OA) in the UK over 25 years. METHODS 215 190 patients aged 35 years and over from the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink GOLD database who were newly diagnosed OA between 1992 and 2017, as well as 1:1 age-matched, sex-matched, practice-matched and index year-matched non-OA individuals, were incorporated. MCVRFs including smoking, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, obesity and dyslipidaemia were defined by Read codes and clinical measurements. The annual and period prevalence and prevalence rate ratios (PRRs) of individual and clustering (≥1, ≥2 and ≥3) MCVRFs were estimated by Poisson regression with multiple imputations for missing values. RESULTS The annual prevalence of MCVRFs increased in the population with OA between 1992 and 2017 and was consistently higher in the population with OA compared with the population without OA between 2004 and 2017. Trends towards increased or stable annual PRRs for individuals and clustering of MCVRFs were observed. A 26-year period prevalence of single and clustering MCVRFs was significantly higher in individuals with OA compared with non-OA individuals. Period PRRs were higher in Southern England, women and increased with age for most MCVRFs except for obesity, which has the higher PRR in the youngest age group. CONCLUSIONS A consistently higher long-term prevalence of MCVRFs was observed in individuals with OA compared to those without OA. The higher prevalence of obesity in the youngest age group with OA highlights the need for public health strategies. Further research to understand MCVRF management in OA populations is necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM) and osteoarthritis (OA) are common diseases that are predicted to increase in prevalence, and DM is a risk factor for OA progression and has a negative impact on the outcome. However, the evidence remains unclear on how it affects patients' clinical results of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) under enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). METHODS A retrospective single-center study was conducted comparing diabetic and non-diabetic patients who underwent TKA in West China Hospital of Sichuan University between September 2016 to December 2017 under ERAS. Consecutive propensity score matching (PSM) was conducted by 1:1 (DM: non-DM) matching analysis with all baselines as covariates. The primary clinical results were the improvement of knee joint function, the incidence of postoperative complications, and the FJS-12 sensory results 5 years after the operation between DM and Non-DM groups. The secondary clinical results were the postoperative length of stay (LOS), postoperative blood test and total blood loss (TBL). RESULT After PSM, the final analysis included 84 diabetic patients and 84 non-diabetic patients. Diabetic patients were more likely to experience early postoperative complications (21.4% vs. 4.8%, P = 0.003), of which wound complications are the most significant (10.7% vs. 1.2%, P = 0.022). Diabetic patients experienced longer postoperative LOS with a significant increase in patients with LOS exceeding 3 days (66.7% vs. 50%, P = 0.028) and showed less postoperative range of motion (ROM) (106.43 ± 7.88 vs. 109.50 ± 6.33 degrees, P = 0. 011). Diabetic patients also reported lower Forgotten joint score (FJS-12) than non-diabetic patients (68.16 + 12.16 vs. 71.57 + 10.75, P = 0.020) in the 5-year follow-up and were less likely to achieve a forgotten knee joint (10.7% vs. 1.2%, P = 0.022). In additional, Compared with non-diabetics, diabetic patients showed lower hemoglobin (Hb) (P < 0.001) and hematocrit (HCT) (P < 0.001) and were more likely to suffer from hypertension before TKA (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Diabetic patients show increased risk for postoperative complications, and have lower lower postoperative ROM and lower FJS-12 compared with non-diabetic patients after TKA under ERAS. More perioperative protocols are still needed to be investigated and optimized for diabetic patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Comorbidities are common in patients with osteoarthritis (OA). This study aimed to determine the association of a wide range of previously diagnosed comorbidities in adults with newly diagnosed OA compared with matched controls without OA. METHODS A case-control study was conducted. The data were derived from an electronic health record database that contains the medical records of patients from general practices throughout the Netherlands. Incident OA cases were defined as patients with one or more diagnostic codes recorded in their medical records that correspond to knee, hip, or other/peripheral OA. Additionally, the first OA code had to be recorded between January 1, 2006, and December 31, 2019. The date of cases' first OA diagnosis was defined as the index date. Cases were matched (by age, sex, and general practice) to up to 4 controls without a recorded OA diagnosis. Odds ratios were derived for each 58 comorbidities separately by dividing the comorbidity prevalence of cases by that of their matched controls at the index date. RESULTS 80,099 incident OA patients were identified of whom 79,937 (99.8%) were successfully matched with 318,206 controls. OA cases had higher odds for 42 of the 58 studied comorbidities compared with matched controls. Musculoskeletal diseases and obesity showed large associations with incident OA. CONCLUSIONS Most of the comorbidities under study had higher odds in patients with incident OA at the index date. While previously known associations were confirmed in this study, some associations were not described earlier.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Artificial intelligence and deep learning have shown promising results in medical imaging and interpreting radiographs. Moreover, medical community shows a gaining interest in automating routine diagnostics issues and orthopedic measurements.
AIM To verify the accuracy of automated patellar height assessment using deep learning-based bone segmentation and detection approach on high resolution radiographs.
METHODS 218 Lateral knee radiographs were included in the analysis. 82 radiographs were utilized for training and 10 other radiographs for validation of a U-Net neural network to achieve required Dice score. 92 other radiographs were used for automatic (U-Net) and manual measurements of the patellar height, quantified by Caton-Deschamps (CD) and Blackburne-Peel (BP) indexes. The detection of required bones regions on high-resolution images was done using a You Only Look Once (YOLO) neural network. The agreement between manual and automatic measurements was calculated using the interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and the standard error for single measurement (SEM). To check U-Net's generalization the segmentation accuracy on the test set was also calculated.
RESULTS Proximal tibia and patella was segmented with accuracy 95.9% (Dice score) by U-Net neural network on lateral knee subimages automatically detected by the YOLO network (mean Average Precision mAP greater than 0.96). The mean values of CD and BP indexes calculated by orthopedic surgeons (R#1 and R#2) was 0.93 (± 0.19) and 0.89 (± 0.19) for CD and 0.80 (± 0.17) and 0.78 (± 0.17) for BP. Automatic measurements performed by our algorithm for CD and BP indexes were 0.92 (± 0.21) and 0.75 (± 0.19), respectively. Excellent agreement between the orthopedic surgeons’ measurements and results of the algorithm has been achieved (ICC > 0.75, SEM < 0.014).
CONCLUSION Automatic patellar height assessment can be achieved on high-resolution radiographs with the required accuracy. Determining patellar end-points and the joint line-fitting to the proximal tibia joint surface allows for accurate CD and BP index calculations. The obtained results indicate that this approach can be valuable tool in a medical practice.

Questions covered pain prevalence (shoulder, elbow, hand, hip, knee, ankle) and its consequences based on the Standardised Nordic Questionnaire. Data was presented using proportions (95 % confidence intervals). RESULTS The analysis included 3767 patients. The one-week prevalence was 9.3-30.8 % and 12-month prevalence 13.9-41.8 %, highest for shoulder pain (30.8-41.8 %). The prevalence was similar between type 1 and 2 diabetes for the upper extremity, but higher in type 2 for the lower extremity. Women had a higher pain prevalence for any joint for both diabetes types, while estimates did not vary between age groups (<60 or ≥60 years). More than half of the patients had reduced their activities at work or leisure time, and more than one-third had sought care during the past year because of pain. CONCLUSIONS Musculoskeletal pain in the upper and lower extremities is common in patients with type 1 and 2 diabetes from Denmark, with considerable consequences for work and leisure activities.

Abstract
The objective of this review is to provide an overview of the current status of osteoarthritis (OA) as one of the most common joint disorders worldwide. Despite being the 11th cause of disability globally, there has been an increase in the prevalence, annual incidence, and years lived with disability of OA, particularly in developed and developing countries. Erosive hand OA, which affects approximately 10% of the general population, has been associated with a higher clinical burden compared to non-erosive hand OA. Patients with knee and hip OA, but not hand OA, are also at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. Furthermore, OA has a significant contribution to healthcare costs in most countries. The recent COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated the disease burden of OA patients due to limited access to medical and surgical treatment. With increasing life expectancy and the aging of the global population, the burden of OA is expected to worsen. Therefore, this review highlights the importance of improving population and policymaker awareness of risk factors, such as obesity and injury, as well as early intervention and management of OA to control the future burden of the disease.

Abstract
Exercise is painful and difficult to perform for patients with severe lower-limb osteoarthritis; consequently, reduced physical activity contributes to increased cardiometabolic disease risk. The aim of this study was to characterize the acute and adaptive cardiovascular and metabolic effects of two low or no impact therapies in patients with severe lower-limb osteoarthritis: passive heat therapy (Heat) and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) utilizing primarily the unaffected limbs, compared to a control intervention of home-based exercise (Home). Participants completed up to 12 weeks of either Heat (20-30 min immersed in 40°C water followed by ~15-min light resistance exercise), HIIT (6-8 × 60-s intervals on a cross-trainer or arm ergometer at ~90-100% peak V ̇ $$ \dot{V} $$ O2 ) or Home (~15-min light resistance exercise); all 3 sessions/week. Reductions in systolic (12 & 10 mm Hg), diastolic (7 & 4 mm Hg), and mean arterial (8 & 6 mm Hg) blood pressure (BP) were observed following one bout of Heat or HIIT exposure, lasting for the duration of the 20-min monitoring period. Across the interventions (i.e., 12 weeks), resting systolic BP and diastolic BP decreased with Heat (-9 & -4 mm Hg; p < 0.001) and HIIT (-7 & -3 mm Hg; p ≤ 0.011), but not Home (0 & 0 mm Hg; p ≥ 0.785). The systolic and diastolic BP responses to an acute exposure of Heat or HIIT in the first intervention session were moderately correlated with adaptive responses across the intervention (r ≥ 0.54, p ≤ 0.005). Neither intervention improved indices of glycemic control (p = 0.310). In summary, both Heat and HIIT induced potent immediate and adaptive hypotensive effects, and the acute response was moderately predictive of the long-term response.

Abstract
PURPOSE Knee osteoarthritis (OA) may be comorbid with diabetes mellitus (DM), and physical activity is a recommended lifestyle strategy for both diseases. The present study investigated the physical activity differences by intensity between knee OA patients with or without DM, and evaluated if physical activity was associated with the presence of DM in knee OA patients. METHODS A total of 183 patients (mean age 74.9 ± 6.4 years) with moderate-to-severe knee OA underwent evaluation of knee function (i.e., knee flexion/extension range-of-motion, knee-extension muscle strength, and knee pain), the timed up-and-go (TUG) test, and physical activity measurement using an accelerometer. Physical activity by intensity was compared between knee OA patients with and without DM. The association between physical activity, including knee function and the TUG test time, and DM was assessed. RESULTS The 2 groups (with or without DM) did not differ significantly in knee OA severity or age. Compared to knee OA patients without DM, knee OA patients with DM had a significantly lower average daily step count (p < 0.001), and significantly shorter times spent performing light-intensity physical activity (LPA; p < 0.001) and moderate-to-vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA; p = 0.006). After adjusting for age, sex, and body mass index, we found that a lower average daily step count and shorter LPA time significantly correlated with DM (β = -0.200, p = 0.006; β = -0.216, p = 0.004, respectively) and a longer TUG test time (β = -0.196, p = 0.014; β = -0.208, p = 0.011, respectively). A shorter MVPA time significantly correlated with lower contralateral knee-extension muscle strength (β = 0.187, p = 0.032). CONCLUSION Knee OA patients with DM had significantly lower physical activity levels than those without DM. Furthermore, the presence of DM correlated with a lower step count and a shorter LPA time in knee OA patients.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) and osteoarthritis (OA) are chronic noncommunicable diseases that affect millions of people worldwide. OA and DM are prevalent worldwide and associated with chronic pain and disability. Evidence suggests that DM and OA coexist within the same population. The coexistence of DM in patients with OA has been linked to the development and progression of the disease. Furthermore, DM is associated with a greater degree of osteoarthritic pain. Numerous risk factors are common to both DM and OA. Age, sex, race, and metabolic diseases (e.g., obesity, hypertension, and dyslipidemia) have been identified as risk factors. These risk factors (demographics and metabolic disorder) are associated with DM or OA. Other possible factors may include sleep disorders and depression. Medications for metabolic syndromes might be related to the incidence and progression of OA, with conflicting results. Given the growing body of evidence indicating a relationship between DM and OA, it is vital to analyze, interpret, and integrate these findings. Therefore, the purpose of this review was to evaluate the evidence on the prevalence, relationship, pain, and risk factors of both DM and OA. The research was limited to knee, hip, and hand OA.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, a condition in which the body's ability to produce insulin is impaired, and osteoarthritis (OA), a painful degeneration of joint cartilage, are both serious conditions that affect millions of people in the United States (U.S.). Osteoarthritis is a chronic degenerative condition of the joint cartilage, affecting mainly the older population. The purpose of this paper is to find a connection, if any, between diabetes and osteoarthritis and if either condition can predispose an individual to the other. Not only can this review help to explain the co-existence of these two diseases, but it can also be used to look into a cure for patients in the future. After preliminary searches were done on PubMed, results were narrowed using specific keywords and similar risk factors among the two diseases. It was found that these two conditions are actually interrelated due to oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory cytokines. Seeing the high risk of developing one of these conditions and that obesity, one of the biggest risk factors for both diabetes and osteoarthritis, is at an all-time high in this country, a possible connection between the two of these diseases is very prevalent to look into. This information can be used to help correlate not only a better-targeted treatment but also lead to future research into why obesity is one of the biggest risk factors for both conditions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteoarthritis (OA) has recently been suggested to be associated with diabetes. However, this association often disappears when accounting for body mass index (BMI), suggesting that mechanical stress may be a confounding factor. We investigated the combined influence of glucose level and loading stress on OA progression using a novel whole joint-in-motion (JM) culture system. DESIGN Whole mouse knee joints were placed in an enclosed chamber with culture media and actuated to recapitulate leg movement, with a dynamic stress regimen of 0.5 Hz, 8 h/day for 7 days. These joints were treated with varying levels of glucose and controlled for osmolarity and diffusion. Joint movement and joint space were examined by X-ray fluoroscopy and microCT. Cartilage matrix levels were quantified by blinded Mankin scoring and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Culturing in the JM device facilitated proper leg extension and flexion movements, and adequate mass transport for analyzing the effect of glucose on cartilage. Treatment with higher levels of glucose either via media supplementation or intra-articular injection caused a significant decrease in levels of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and an increase in aggrecan neoepitope in articular cartilage, but only under dynamic stress. Additionally, collagen II level was slightly reduced by high glucose levels. CONCLUSIONS High levels of glucose and dynamic stress have permissive effects on articular cartilage GAG loss and aggrecan degradation, implicating that mechanical stress confounds the association of diabetes with OA. The JM device supports novel investigation of mechanical stress on the integrity of an intact living mouse joint to provide insights into OA pathogenesis.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common and debilitating joint disorder that leads to progressive joint breakdown and loss of articular cartilage. Accompanied by a state of low-grade inflammation, its etiology extends beyond that of a wear-and-tear disease, and the immune system might have a role in its initiation and progression. Obesity, which is directly associated with an increased incidence of OA, alters adipokine release, increases pro-inflammatory macrophage activity, and affects joint immune regulation. Studying inflammatory macrophage expression and strategies to inhibit inflammatory macrophage phenotype polarization might provide insights into disease pathogenesis and therapeutic applications. In pre-clinical studies, the detection of OA in its initial stages was shown to be possible using imaging techniques such as SPECT-CT, and advances are made to detect OA through blood-based biomarker analysis. In this review, obesity-induced osteoarthritis and its mechanisms in inducing joint degeneration are summarized, along with an analysis of the current developments in patient imaging and biomarker use for diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the causal effect of systemic iron status by using four biomarkers (serum iron; transferrin saturation; ferritin; total iron-binding capacity) on knee osteoarthritis (OA), hip OA, total knee replacement, and total hip replacement using 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) design.Methods: Three instrument sets were used to construct the genetic instruments for the iron status: Liberal instruments (variants associated with one of the iron biomarkers), sensitivity instruments (liberal instruments exclude variants associated with potential confounders), and conservative instruments (variants associated with all four iron biomarkers). Summary-level data for four OA phenotypes, including knee OA, hip OA, total knee replacement, and total hip replacement were obtained from the largest genome-wide meta-analysis with 826,690 individuals. Inverse-variance weighted based on the random-effect model as the main approach was conducted. Weighted median, MR-Egger, and Mendelian randomization pleiotropy residual sum and outlier methods were used as sensitivity MR approaches.Results: Based on liberal instruments, genetically predicted serum iron and transferrin saturation were significantly associated with hip OA and total hip replacement, but not with knee OA and total knee replacement. Statistical evidence of heterogeneity across the MR estimates indicated that mutation rs1800562 was the SNP significantly associated with hip OA in serum iron (odds ratio, OR = 1.48), transferrin saturation (OR = 1.57), ferritin (OR = 2.24), and total-iron binding capacity (OR = 0.79), and hip replacement in serum iron (OR = 1.45), transferrin saturation (OR = 1.25), ferritin (OR = 1.37), and total-iron binding capacity (OR = 0.80).Conclusion: Our study suggests that high iron status might be a causal factor of hip OA and total hip replacement where rs1800562 is the main contributor.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Emerging evidence indicates that hyperglycemia has an adverse impact on the knee joint which, in turn, may increase the risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA), but evidence from the real-life settings of large-scale cohort studies remains unclear. We sought to evaluate the association of glycemic control and the risk of symptomatic knee OA in a community-based cohort of older adults. METHODS We conducted a prospective analysis of 10,730 participants without knee OA. Comprehensive blood biomarker data were obtained. Diabetes mellitus (DM) was defined mainly using a glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c ) level of ≥6.5%; poor glycemic control in individuals with DM was defined as an HbA1c level of ≥7%. We fit Cox regression models, stratified according to DM status. We evaluated the hazards associated with HbA1c and fasting blood glucose levels using a spline model. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 5 years, knee OA developed in 1,089 participants (108 with DM and 971 without). Knee OA was related to DM (hazard ratio [HR] 1.29 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.02-1.78]), bad glycemic regulation in DM patients (HR 1.41 [95% CI 1.05-2.09]), and long-term DM (≥5 versus <5 years; HR 1.49 [95% CI 1.02-2.17]). High levels of HbA1c (>7.7% and 61 mmoles/mole) and fasting blood glucose (>186 mg/dl) were significantly associated with higher risk of incident knee OA. CONCLUSION DM, bad glycemic management, and long-term DM are potential risk factors of symptomatic knee OA independent of age and body mass index. Targeting blood glucose, in addition to bodyweight, may be an important avenue for prevention of knee OA.

Improving diagnosis and treatment of knee osteoarthritis in persons with type 2 diabetes: development of a complex intervention. Implement Sci Commun 2023; 4:20. [PMID: 36855209 PMCID: PMC9972628 DOI: 10.1186/s43058-023-00398-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2022] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA) commonly co-occurs in people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and increases the risk for diabetes complications, yet uptake of evidence-based treatment is low. We combined theory, stakeholder involvement and existing evidence to develop a multifaceted intervention to improve OA care in persons with T2DM. This was done in partnership with Arthritis Society Canada to leverage the existing infrastructure and provincial funding for community arthritis care. METHODS Each step was informed by a User Advisory Panel of stakeholder representatives, including persons with lived experience. First, we identified the target groups and behaviours through consulting stakeholders and current literature. Second, we interviewed persons living with T2DM and knee OA (n = 18), health professionals (HPs) who treat people with T2DM (n = 18) and arthritis therapists (ATs, n = 18) to identify the determinants of seeking and engaging in OA care (patients), assessing and treating OA (HPs) and considering T2DM in OA treatment (ATs), using the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF). We mapped the content to behavioural change techniques (BCTs) to identify the potential intervention components. Third, we conducted stakeholder meetings to ascertain the acceptability and feasibility of intervention components, including content and modes of delivery. Fourth, we selected intervention components informed by prior steps and constructed a programme theory to inform the implementation of the intervention and its evaluation. RESULTS We identified the barriers and enablers to target behaviours across a number of TDF domains. All stakeholders identified insufficient access to resources to support OA care in people with T2DM. Core intervention components, incorporating a range of BCTs at the patient, HP and AT level, sought to identify persons with knee OA within T2DM care and refer to Arthritis Society Canada for delivery of evidence-based longitudinal OA management. Diverse stakeholder input throughout development allowed the co-creation of an intervention that appears feasible and acceptable to target users. CONCLUSIONS We integrated theory, evidence and stakeholder involvement to develop a multifaceted intervention to increase the identification of knee OA in persons with T2DM within diabetes care and improve the uptake and engagement in evidence-based OA management. Our partnership with Arthritis Society Canada supports future spread, scalability and sustainability. We will formally assess the intervention feasibility in a randomized pilot trial.

Association between knee osteoarthritis and the risk of cardiovascular disease and the synergistic adverse effects of lack of exercise. Sci Rep 2023; 13:2777. [PMID: 36797339 PMCID: PMC9935498 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-29581-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2022] [Accepted: 02/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/18/2023] Open
Abstract
We aimed to determine whether knee OA is associated with CVD risk and all-cause death and to evaluate whether the association differs by exercise behavior. We used Korea National Health Insurance Service (KNHIS) database and included 201,466 participants (7572 subjects diagnosed with knee OA) who underwent health screening between 2009 and 2015. Those who had been diagnosed with knee OA or CVD before the index year were excluded. Cox proportional hazard models were used after adjusting for sociodemographic and CVD risk factors to evaluate the association between knee OA and CVD risk and all-cause death. Stratification analysis was further performed to determine the effect of exercise behavior on this relationship. During a median follow-up of 7.06 ± 2.24 years, 8743 CVD (2510 MI and 6553 stroke) cases developed. Individuals with knee OA had increased risks of CVD [hazard ratio (HR) 1.26, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.15-1.38], myocardial infarction (MI) (HR 1.20, 95% CI 1.00-1.44), and stroke (HR 1.29, 95% CI 1.16-1.43) compared with those without knee OA. Those with knee OA who did not exercise had an increased risk of CVD (HR 1.25, 95% CI 1.11-1.40), whereas no significant increased CVD risk was observed in those with knee OA who exercised at least once a week (HR 1.11, 95% CI 0.96-1.28). There was no association between knee osteoarthritis and all-cause death. Knee OA was independently associated with an increased risk of CVD. Lack of exercise might have a synergistic adverse effect on the association between knee OA and CVD.

Abstract
Factors affecting the progression rate and fate of osteoarthritis need to be analyzed when considering patient-specific situation. This study aimed to identify the rate of remarkable progression and fate of primary knee osteoarthritis based on patient-specific situations. Between May 2003 and May 2019, 83,280 patients with knee pain were recruited for this study from the clinical data warehouse. Finally, 2492 knees with pain that were followed up for more than one year were analyzed. For analyzing affecting factors, patient-specific information was categorized and classified as demographic, radiologic, social, comorbidity disorders, and surgical intervention data. The degree of contribution of factors to the progression rate and the fate of osteoarthritis was analyzed. Bone mineral density (BMD), Kellgren-Lawrence (K-L) grade, and physical occupational demands were major contributors to the progression rate of osteoarthritis. Hypertension, initial K-L grade, and physical occupational demands were major contributors to the outcome of osteoarthritis. The progression rate and fate of osteoarthritis were mostly affected by the initial K-L grade and physical occupational demands. Patients who underwent surgical intervention for less than five years had the highest proportion of initial K-L grade 2 (49.0%) and occupations with high physical demand (41.3%). In identifying several contributing factors, the initial K-L grade and physical occupational demands were the most important factors. BMD and hypertension were also major contributors to the progression and fate of osteoarthritis, and the degree of contribution was lower compared to the two major factors.

Associations between obesity, diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular disease with progression states of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Aging Clin Exp Res 2023; 35:333-340. [PMID: 36525243 DOI: 10.1007/s40520-022-02312-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2022] [Accepted: 11/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on common comorbidities targeting at different progression states of knee osteoarthritis (KOA) in continuous time are limited. AIMS To examine the associations between obesity, diabetes mellitus (DM), and cardiovascular disease (CVD) with the progression of KOA. METHODS Data were obtained from the Osteoarthritis Initiative for up to 48 months. Progression states of KOA were defined as (1) normal; (2) asymptomatic radiographic KOA (RKOA, Kellgren-Lawrence grade ≥ 2 in at least one knee); (3) only knee symptoms; (4) symptomatic KOA (SxKOA, a combination of RKOA and knee symptoms in the same knee). A multi-state Markov model was used to investigate the associations while accounting for potential confounders. RESULTS Participants with obesity had an increased risk of developing RKOA [normal to asymptomatic RKOA, adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 1.55, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) (1.07, 2.24); only knee symptoms to SxKOA, aHR 2.25, 95% CI (1.60, 3.18)], and an increased risk of developing knee symptoms [normal to only knee symptoms, aHR 1.45, 95% CI (1.15, 1.83); asymptomatic RKOA to SxKOA, aHR 1.33, 95% CI (1.16, 1.52)]. DM was also significantly associated with development of RKOA or knee symptoms [normal to asymptomatic RKOA, aHR 1.92, 95% CI (1.12, 3.30); normal to only knee symptoms, aHR 1.78, 95% CI (1.12, 2.84)]. Knee symptoms were less likely to be relieved among participants with CVD, compared with those without [only knee symptoms to normal, aHR 0.60, 95% CI (0.38, 0.94)]. CONCLUSIONS Obesity, DM and CVD are associated with an increased risk for SxKOA progression. Common comorbidities should be considered to prevent KOA development.

Abstract
The purpose of the review of scientific medical literature was to evaluate the data of the epidemiology of osteoarthritis (OA) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) with the analysis of risk factors, pathophysiological and pathobiochemical mechanisms of the relationship between OA and the risk of developing CVD in the presence of chronic pain, modern strategies for screening and management of this cohort of patients, the mechanism of action and pharmacological effects of chondroitin sulfate (CS). Conclusions were drawn about the need for additional clinical and observational studies of the efficacy and safety of the parenteral form of CS (Chondroguard) in patients with chronic pain in OA and CVD, improvement of clinical recommendations for the treatment of chronic pain in patients with OA and cardiovascular risk, with special attention to interventions that eliminate mobility restrictions in patients and the inclusion of basic and adjuvant therapy with DMOADs to achieve the goals of multipurpose monotherapy in patients with contraindications to standard therapy drugs.
