Table 5.

Association between phenotypes and undergoing primary TKR, with and without adjustment for symptomatic OA and KL grade, after baseline and prior to the 96-month visit (n = 3154). The adjustment refers to adding baseline symptomatic OA and KL grade as additional predictors in the logistic regression model. Both models adjusted for age, sex, and BMI.
