Abstract
Introduction: Osteo-arthritis is the most frequent cause of musculoskeletal disability. It is a common disorder of synovial joints characterised by destruction of hyaline articular cartilage, and reactive bone changes.
Aim: To show the relation between Osteo-arthritis and metabolic syndrome.
Materials and Methods: The components of metabolic syndrome like waist circumference, blood pressure, total triglycerides, HDL cholesterol and fasting glucose were measured.
Results: HDL cholesterol levels between controls and cases were found to be highly significant.
Conclusion: The present study shows that there is increased association of adversely changed components of metabolic syndrome with osteo-arthritis.
Key words: Osteo-arthritis, metabolic syndrome, lipid profile, HDL, triglycerides.
