Abstract

Aim: To determine the risk factors associated with early knee osteoarthritis in patients presented to tertiary care hospital. Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted on 120 patients presenting with early knee osteoarthritis at Sialkot Medical College Sialkot Pakistan from November, 2022 to April, 2023. We assessed the risk factors associated with early knee osteoarthritis. Results: Mean age recorded was 50.80±8.94 years. Majority of the patients were females. About 30% of the patients were house wives while 53.3% were office employees and 16.7% were laborers. About 20% patients had normal BMI while 35% overweight and 45% obese. About 60% patients were diabetic and 69.2% patients had vitamin D deficiency. Conclusion: Profession, obesity, diabetes and vitamin D deficiency are leading risk factors with early knee osteoarthritis in patients.
