| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cohort study was conducted on 50 hip osteoarthritis (hip OA). We investigated risk factors related to the progression of hip OA. Independent variables was radiographic progression of hip OA (yes/no) and dependent variables were hip morphology, hip pain, hip joint dysfunction, and hip joint load at walking. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed excessive hip joint cumulative load (the product of hip joint moment impulse and daily average number of steps on the affected side) was risk factor for hip OA progression. Through this study, we were able to identify the risk factor for the hip OA progression among the factors that can be improved by rehabilitation. It will be necessary to conduct intervention research focusing on effect of reducing cumulative hip loading on hip OA progression in the patients with hip OA.
