Science of Aging Knowledge Environment, 2004
In this case study, we describe the symptoms, evaluation, and management of a woman with osteoarthritis (OA). OA is the most common form of arthritis worldwide and it is a major cause of disability in the elderly. Although there are several aging-related changes in the musculoskeletal system that may contribute to the pathogenesis of this disease ...

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 2011
The pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA) appears to be the result of a complex interplay between mechanical, cellular and biochemical forces. Obesity is the strongest risk factor for disease onset in the knee, and mechanical factors dominate the risk for disease progression. OA is a highly prevalent and disabling disease.

Erosive osteoarthritis is a disorder that most often involves the hands of postmenopausal women. It can begin abruptly with pain, swelling, and tenderness. Distal interphalangeal joints are involved most frequently, followed by proximal interphalangeal joints. Occasionally there is metacarpophalangeal, carpal, or large joint involvement.

In summary, the relationship between risk factors and OA may differ across joints. For knees, obesity and knee injury either due to acute events or to repetitive impact loading may be the most important preventable causes of disease. Hand OA is probably also caused by repetitive use, but its association with other risk factors is unknown.

Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 1995
There are few studies on the prevalence, pattern or clinical course of osteoarthritis (OA) in the tropics. The studies that have been carried out, however, indicate that on the whole there is a lower prevalence of OA than found in Western countries. In addition, the pattern of joint involvement may be different with less common involvement of the hip ...

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons
Ankle osteoarthritis (OA) is less common than knee and hip OA, and 75% to 80% of all presentations are posttraumatic in nature, resulting from either ligamentous or bony injury to the ankle. While the ankle joint cartilage demonstrates capacity for self-restoration, the ankle joint is sensitive to aberrancies in biomechanics and the inflammatory milieu
