PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 2 years

Population: All individuals were included in analysis, which was performed on multiply imputed data.

Pain subscale score was calculated from patient's responses on the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index Likert-type 3.1 Questionnaire. The questionnaire includes 24 items divided into 3 subscales, Pain, Stiffness, Physical Function. Only the Pain subscale score was used for this outcome measure. The Pain subscale consists of five items, each ranging from 0 to 4, making the total Pain subscore 0 to 20. Higher scores represent higher levels of pain, whereas lower scores represent lower levels of pain. Missing data were imputed.
