Effect of diabetes mellitus on physical function in patients with osteoarthritis: a cross-sectional observational study
This study revealed that the DMOA population has worse physical function than non-DMOA population, especially in high-intensity and frequent joint use activities. Managing DM in OA patients is crucial to improve their physical function and overall quality of life. The impact of DM should be considered in the selection of therapeutic agents and care for OA.
