- An asymmetric bidirectional relationship exists between diabetes & osteoarthritis (OA)
- Amongst UK Biobank subjects followed for 13.5 yrs, baseline diabetes was linked to earlier knee OA onset before BMI adjustment (TR 0.91; p<0.001), but not after BMI adjustment (TR 1.04)
- Conversely, prevalent Knee OA (TR 0.91; p=0.005) & hand OA (TR 0.68; p=0.021) predicted earlier diabetes onset, independent of BMI.
