The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between body composition and knee osteoarthritis, and effects of inflammatory, metabolic, and hormonal factors.
Banked serum and urine specimens obtained from NIA Baltimore Longitudinal Study on Aging (BLSA) participants with and without knee OA will be used to determine inflammatory, metabolic, bone and joint biomarkers in an observational, case-control study. This study will be limited to BLSA data and samples that have already been acquired and stored.
The specific aims of this study are to:
Adjustments will be made for age, gender, body mass index and level of physical activity.
