Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study (MOST) Second Renewal - Boston University
Description: PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Knee osteoarthritis which causes chronic knee pain affects at least 12% of persons age 60 and over and is the most common cause of disability in elders, yet little is available to treat or prevent this disease. We propose a renewal of the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study (MOST), focused on new prevention opportunities and also on novel ways to understand and ultimately limit the impact of knee arthritis on the daily lives of those affecte.
