- Brief Summary
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent form of arthritis. Its pathogenesis remains poorly understood. Though historically regarded as a disease of mechanical degeneration, it is now appreciated that inflammation plays an important role in OA pathogenesis (Krasnokutsky et al., 2017). The hallmark of OA is the degradation and loss of articular cartilage, although most tissues of the joint become affected, such as bone, synovium, ligaments, menisci (knee), labrum (hip), periarticular fat, and muscle (Englund, 2023).It is believed that there is a pathological link between hyperuricemia and OA Therefore, we conducted a cross-sectional study to evaluate an association between elevated SUA and radiographic OA of the knee) Bipan Shrestha, 2019 (.
