6. obesity


(the last 3 factors are potentially modifiable).

64. presentation of osteoarthritis?

b. Crepitus on moving the joint

The most common joint to be affected in osteoarthritis.

Khee

The most common joint to be affected in osteoarthritis that lead to mortality.

Hip
65. which hand join is affected by osteoarthritis, as opposed to rheumatoid arthritis?
DIP joints (RA does not affect the DIP joints).
66. Heberden's node?
DIP osteophytes
67. Bouchard's nodes?
PIP osteophytes
68. diagnostic testing for osteoarthritis: what is the best initial test?
X–ray of the joint

69. for CCS, all of the following should be ordered for OA (there is no specific diagnostic test)?

1. ANA
2. ESR
