Osteoarthritis Across Joint Sites in the Million Veteran Program Cohort: Insights From Electronic Health Records and Military Service History
These findings highlight the breadth of factors associated with OA in the MVP veteran population and suggest that physical status may be a modifiable risk factor for OA. This work may help in the design of strategies to optimize appropriate detection, intervention, treatment, and even rehabilitation for OA in veterans and the general population.
