The objective: features of the course and clinical manifestations of the joint syndrome and increase the effectiveness of treatment in patients with OA with osteoporosis and obesity. Materials and methods. The study included 134 patients (88 women and 46 men), aged 30 to 80 years. Depending on the body mass index, patients were divided into 2 groups: obese and normal weight. Peculiarities of the course and effectiveness of treatment were assessed using questionnaires VAS, WOMAC, Lekens. Levels of nonspecific inflammatory parameters (ESR and CRP), cytokines (IL-1, IGF-1, NO), uric acid level and bone mineral density were also studied. SPSS Statistics was used for statistical data processing. Results. The study revealed a statistically significant difference in the indicators of the questionnaires VAS, WOMAC and Leken, levels of immunological (IL-1, IGF-1, NO) and nonspecific (ESR, CRP) indicators of inflammation between the 2 groups of patients. Patients with osteoporosis and obesity had the worst questionnaires and indicators of inflammation, compared with patients with normal BMD and osteopenia. In obese patients, the dynamics of treatment was significantly worse, according to questionnaires, immunological and nonspecific indicators of inflammation. Conclusions. Patients with OA and obesity, compared with normal weight, had more severe joint damage, more intense pain, stiffness and reduced functional activity, as well as more intense inflammation. The most severe course of the disease was observed in patients with osteoporosis and obesity, compared with normal BMD and osteopenia. The dynamics of SYSADOA treatment is impaired in patients with osteoarthritis and obesity: less intense reduction of knee stiffness, pain and poorer functional activity, as well as less effective anti-inflammatory effect.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
