Objectives.
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between pain, disability, and radiographic findings in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Patients and Methods.
A total of 114 patients with knee OA who attended the physical medicine and rehabilitation outpatient clinic were included in this study.
The diagnosis was based on the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria for knee OA.
Age, duration of disease, and body mass index (BMI) of the patients were recorded.
Radiographic features on the two-sided knee radiography were assessed with the Kellgren-Lawrence scale.
The severity of knee pain, stiffness, and disability were measured using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC).
Results.
The mean age of the patients was 56.98 (±8.28) years and the mean disease duration was 4.14 (±4.15) years.
Kellgren-Lawrence grading scale and age or disease duration were positively and significantly associated, whereas none of the WOMAC subscores were found to be related with Kellgren-Lawrence grading scale (P>0.05).
On the other hand, WOMAC disability scores were significantly associated with WOMAC pain and WOMAC stiffness (P<0.01).
Conclusions.
Knee pain, stiffness, and duration of disease may affect the level of disability in the patients with knee OA.
Therefore treatment of knee OA could be planned according to the clinical features and functional status instead of radiological findings.
