| Summary: | The present review is devoted to the problem of progression of the knee osteoarthritis. It has been shown that the most important predictors of the disease progression are female gender, strong knee pain, synovitis,deformation of joints, high body mass index, previous traumas, high bone mineral density of the axial skeleton and subchondral parts of femur and tibia, bone marrow edema. Despite numerous studies conducted in order to reveal risk factors of knee osteoarthritis, results remain controversial and require further investigation. |
