Barbour KE, et al. - Experts assessed knee osteoarthritis (OA) and the risk of medically treated injurious falls (hereafter injurious falls), overall and by sex, among older adults. They used the data from the Health ABC Knee Osteoarthritis Substudy, a community-based study of white and black older adults, to test the associations between knee OA status and the risk of injurious falls among 734 participants with a mean (SD) age of 74.7 (2.9) years. Findings suggested an independent association of the knee symptomatic radiographic osteoarthritis (sROA), defined as having both a Kellgren-Lawrence grade of ≥ 2 and pain symptoms in the same knee, with an increased risk of injurious falls in older men, but this association was not seen in older women.
