TLDR
Type 2 diabetes predicts the development of severe OA independent of age and BMI, and the findings strengthen the concept of a strong metabolic component in the pathogenesis of OA.
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate if type 2 diabetes is an independent risk predictor for severe osteoarthritis (OA). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Population-based cohort study with an age- and sex-stratified random sample of 927 men and women aged 40–80 years and followed over 20 years (1990–2010). RESULTS Rates of arthroplasty (95% CI) were 17.7 (9.4–30.2) per 1,000 person-years in patients with type 2 diabetes and 5.3 (4.1–6.6) per 1,000 person-years in those without ( P P P = 0.023) after adjustment for age, BMI, and other risk factors for OA. The probability of arthroplasty increased with disease duration of type 2 diabetes and applied to men and women, as well as subgroups according to age and BMI. Our findings were corroborated in cross-sectional evaluation by more severe clinical symptoms of OA and structural joint changes in subjects with type 2 diabetes compared with those without type 2 diabetes. CONCLUSIONS Type 2 diabetes predicts the development of severe OA independent of age and BMI. Our findings strengthen the concept of a strong metabolic component in the pathogenesis of OA.

TL;DR: A high frequency of OA in patients with DM and an association between both diseases is highlighted, representing a further step towards the individualisation of DM-related OA within a metabolic OA phenotype.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review discusses hypotheses based on pathways specific to a metabolic factor in MetS-associated OA, such as the role of advanced glycation end products and glucose toxicity.

Diabetes is a risk factor for knee osteoarthritis progression.

TL;DR: Type 2 diabetes was a predictor of joint space reduction in men with established knee OA and no relationships were found between MetS or other metabolic factors and radiographic progression.

Review: Metabolic Regulation of Inflammation in Osteoarthritis.

TL;DR: Osteoarthritis has long been considered the unique consequence of a tear and wear process leading to cartilage degradation as discussed by the authors, with the production of osteophytes being considered a reactive process of the bone to protect and stabilize the altered joint.
