ÖZET
Amaç: Bu çalışma, gonartrozlu hastalarda tiroid fonksiyon bozukluklarının ağrı ve fiziksel fonksiyon üzerindeki etkilerini araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Kellgren-Lawrence (K/L) radyografik derecelendirme sistemine göre Grade 1-3 diz osteoartritli gonartroz tanısı alan toplam 82 hasta dâhil edildi. Hastalar 2 gruba ayrıldı. Grup 1 (n=41) tiroid disfonksiyonlu gonartroz hastası, Grup 2 (n=41) ise sadece gonartroz hastasıydı. Vizüel analog skala (VAS) ve “Western Ontario ve McMaster Universities Osteoartritis Index (WOMAC)” alt ölçek puanları gruplar arasında karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Gruplar arasında; yaş, diz semptom süresi VAS, WOMACAğrı, WOMAC-Sertlik ve K/L skorlarında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark yoktu. WOMAC-Fiziksel Fonksiyon skorları Grup 1’de istatistiksel olarak anlamlı derecede yüksekti (p<0,05). Sonuç: Tiroid disfonksiyonunun eşlik ettiği gonartrozlu hastalarda, fiziksel fonksiyon düzeyi, tek başına gonartrozlu hastalara göre daha düşüktür. Polikliniklere başvuran gonartrozlu hastalarda tiroid fonksiyon bozukluklarının tedavi edilmesi fiziksel fonksiyon açısından yararlı olabilir.
ABSTRACT
Objective: This study aims to investigate the effects of thyroid dysfunction on pain and physical function in patients with gonarthrosis. Material and Methods: A total of 82 patients with the diagnosis of Grade 1-3 gonarthrosis according to the Kellgren-Lawrence (K/L) radiographic grading system were included. Patients were divided into 2 groups. Group 1 (n=41) included gonarthrosis patients with thyroid dysfunctions, Group 2 (n=41) included gonarthrosis patients with normal thyroid functions. Visual analog scale (VAS) and The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) subscale scores were compared between the groups. Results: There was no statistically significant difference in age, knee symptom duration, VAS, WOMAC-Pain, WOMAC-Stiffness and K/L scores between groups. The WOMAC-Physical Function score was significantly higher in Group 1 (p<0.05). Conclusion: Physical function level may be lower in gonarthrosis patients with thyroid dysfunction than in patients with gonarthrosis alone. It may be useful for physical function, to treat thyroid dysfunction in patients with gonarthrosis who apply to outpatient clinics.
