Abstract
This observational analysis shows that statin use may reduce the risk of radiographic knee joint space narrowing progression in patients with nodal (Heberden node–positive) knee osteoarthritis, ind... Background The exact contribution of statins to knee osteoarthritis (OA) radiographic outcomes and the characteristics of patients with OA as potential responders to statins remain unclear.
