“…Pain and functional limitation are the main manifestations of patients with knee OA, and pain is the main cause of functional impairment; pain-related functional impairment may further aggravate the severity of knee OA [35,39].Knee OA is a degenerative disease that increases with age [40]. In this study, however, we found that age and course of disease had little effect on knee osteoarthritis severity.…”

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between radiographic severity and BMI, pain, and physical function in elderly women with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods: A total of 80 elderly women with knee OA were enrolled in this study. Their age, course of disease and body mass index (BMI) were recorded. Radiographic severity was assessed with the Kellgren-Lawrence (K/L) scale, and pain, stiffness, and physical function were assessed with Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scales, objective assessment of patients' functional performance using the Time Up and Go (TUG) test. Spearman correlation analysis was used to assess the relationship between radiographic K/L scores and BMI, pain, and physical function. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the important factors contributing to knee OA severity. Result：The mean age of the patients was 64.7 ± 6.77 years, and the mean course of disease was 5.02±2.12 years. There was no significant correlation between radiographic severity K/L and normal BMI (p=0.087), but there was a moderate correlation between radiographic severity K/L and high BMI (p=0.02, r=0.457). It was positively correlated with WOMAC pain, stiffness and physical function (p=0.001, r=0.447; p=0.004, r=0.316; p=0.025, r=0.250). In addition, K/L grading was positively correlated with TUG (p= 0.001, r=0.395). On the other hand, BMI, pain, and stiffness may be the important influencing factors of the severity of knee OA, while age, course of disease, and physical function have little influence on the severity of knee OA. Conclusion: The radiographic severity of knee OA was correlated with high BMI, pain, and physical function, and high BMI, knee pain and stiffness were important factors for the severity of knee OA.

“…Few other authors also found similar results in their studies. 11,12 Our results have shown that the disability is positively associated with pain and stiffness in knee joint rather than X-ray findings. Similar results were illustrated in the studies conducted by McAlindon et al 13 and Jordan et al 14 that knee pain brings about more disability then the severity of osteoarthritis on knee radiographs.…”

Objective: To explore the relationship between pain, functional impairment (disability) and the radiographic findings in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. Study Design: Cross sectional study Place and Duration of Study: Department of Rhematology, Pakistan Air Force Hospital Islamabad from 1st September 2020 to 28th February 2021 Methodology: One hundred and thirty eight patients of knee joint osteoarthritis were included. Weight bearing antero-posterior and lateral views X-ray for both knees were performed on each patient and Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) system was used to grade the severity of OA. We used Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) for assessment of pain, stiffness and functional impairment. Results: The mean age was 53.76±7.14 years and females were 92 (67 %) and males were 46 (33 %). Average duration of disease was 3.7 years and mean body mass index was 26.78±2.25 Kg/m2. There was no statistically significant association of pain, stiffness and functional impairment with Kellgren-Lawrence radiographic grades. Conclusion: Functional impairment is more associated with level of pain, stiffness in joint and body mass index of patient than the severity of radiographic changes on knee X-ray. Therefore, we would recommend considering functional status of patient alongside radiological findings while planning treatment for patient with knee osteoarthritis. Key words: Osteoarthritis, Pain, function, Radiography
