The goal of this study is to determine the prevalence of knee osteoarthritis (OA) and risk factors for the disease in Korean adults over the age of 50, as well as to provide basic data for OA prevention through management. Based on 2010-2013 data from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Survey, 7962 adults over the age of 50 who participated in radiological tests and health surveys for the diagnosis of osteoarthritis were chosen as participants. The risk factors for OA occurrence were investigated using complex sample multiple logistic regression analysis. According to the findings, the prevalence of knee OA in Korea was 33.3% in this study, with the risk of OA being higher in women, the elderly, people with a lower education level, and people with obesity. To reduce the incidence of OA, interventions and lifestyle changes are needed to prevent the onset of disease in participants with risk factors for OA, such as older women, low education levels, and obesity.
本研究的目的是确定50岁以上韩国成年人膝骨关节炎（OA）的患病率及其患病风险因素，并通过管理为OA预防提供基础数据。基于2010 - 2013年韩国国民健康与营养调查的数据，选取了7962名50岁以上参与骨关节炎诊断的放射学检查和健康调查的成年人作为研究对象。采用复杂样本多元逻辑回归分析方法研究OA发生的风险因素。根据研究结果，本研究中韩国膝OA的患病率为33.3%，女性、老年人、受教育程度较低者以及肥胖者患OA的风险更高。为降低OA的发病率，需要采取干预措施并改变生活方式，以预防有OA风险因素的参与者（如老年女性、低教育水平者和肥胖者）发病。
