A systematic review of the association between radiographic and clinical osteoarthritis of hip and knee
چکیده انگلیسی

SummaryObjectiveThere is ongoing debate on whether an association between radiographic and clinical osteoarthritis (OA) exists. We hypothesized that the inconsistency in the detection of an association might be caused by different definitions of OA, by different radiographic protocols, and by scoring methods for radiographic damage and symptoms. The goal of this study was to evaluate which methodological criteria are important to detect an association between radiographic and clinical OA of hip and knee.MethodsA literature search was performed with the keywords ‘OA’, ‘hip’, ‘knee’, ‘radiographic’, and ‘clinical’ and results were screened for relevant studies. Quality criteria for study characteristics and methodology were developed. Studies were classified according to these criteria and the presence of an association between radiographic and clinical OA was scored. The importance of methodological quality and patient characteristics on the presence of an association was evaluated.ResultsThe literature search resulted in 39 studies describing an association between radiographic and clinical OA. The frequency of an association between radiographic and clinical OA outcome measures diminished when less quality criteria were fulfilled. Specifically the criterion for standardized outcome measures appeared important in the detection of an association. The association was not influenced by patient characteristics. Only four studies were identified that fulfilled all quality criteria and in these studies an association was found for the knee joint and an inconsistent association was found for the hip joint.ConclusionMethodological quality criteria are of importance to reveal an association between radiographic and clinical OA.
