Objected:
To evaluate the association between osteoarthritis (OA) and Parkinson's disease (PD) in adults in the United States.
Methods:
Using 2011-2020 NHANES data, a cross-sectional study of 11,117 adults over the age of 40 was conducted. Univariate logistic regression and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the relationship between arthritis and PD. In addition, stratified analysis was used to examine whether the relationship between arthritis and PD was interactive with age, gender, race, education, BMI.
Results:
In this study, a total of 11,117 participants were included, and we found that osteoarthritis was positively correlated with the development of PD compared with non-arthritis patients [1.95 (1.44 ~ 2.62)] (p < 0.001). After adjusting the covariates, the results are still stable.
Conclusion:
PD patients were positively correlated with OA. Among people with OA, there was a 95% increased risk of PD compared to people without arthritis. Therefore, when treating OA, attention should be paid to the increased risk of PD. In the meantime, further studies are needed to explore the link between OA and PD patients.

Bone Disorders
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...
