The linkage between hemoglobin-to-red blood cell distribution width ratio and osteoarthritis: a study based on the national health and nutrition examination survey.

Key Points

• To investigate the relationship between hemoglobin-to-red blood cell distribution width ratio and osteoarthritis risk.
• Analyzed data from the national health and nutrition examination survey
• Correlational study exploring the association between HRR and OA risk
• Hemoglobin-to-red blood cell distribution width ratio is negatively correlated with the risk of osteoarthritis
• Potential for HRR to serve as a biological marker for osteoarthritis risk
