Changes in disability in older adults with generalized radiographic osteoarthritis: A complex relationship with physical activity

ConclusionsThis was the first study to report that community‐dwelling older adults with GROA show moderate levels of disability, and that reduced levels of disability are associated with higher levels of PA, but when adjusted for other confounders this association is lost. Further research is needed to study the complex relationships between PA and other determinants of disability.
