1. Osteoarthritic Pain Intensity and Location in People with Diabetes Using A Clinical Data Repository System Aqeel Alenazi

2. Background: Diabetes  9.3% of Americans (Cowie CC et al. 2009) – Complications affecting body organs & systems – Diabetes cost in 2012 was $245 billion (American Diabetes Association, 2012) Hyperglycemia  cellular functions & tissue damage including musculoskeletal system (Vogt et al.1982; Alikhani et al.2007; Arkkila et al.2003) – Production of advanced glycation end product (AGE) Affect joint properties –  stiffness and fragility of bone and cartilage » Pain intensity and pain locations? Osteoarthritis (OA)  13.9% of Americans (Lawrence et al.2008) – Leading cause of disability (Pereira et al.2011; Felson et al.2000) – Functional limitations (Nuesch et al.2011)

3. Background: DM is an independent risk factor for – Joint replacement & OA progression for knee and hip joints OA  more comorbidity,  Quality of life,  physical functions – Progression and disability due to pain  medical cost and burdens Pain in patients with OA: – First reason for seeing medical professionals

4. Purpose: The purpose of this study is examine pain intensity and pain locations among patients with DM and OA compared to patients with OA without DM We hypothesized that total pain intensity score [H1] and pain intensity based on locations (local pain intensity) [H2] will be higher in patients with DM and OA compared to patients with OA only. Also, females will show higher total and local pain intensity [H3]

5. Methods: Retrospective study using de-identified data for patients with either diabetes (DM) and localized primary osteoarthritis (OA) diagnoses or OA diagnosis only: – DM and OA (n=870) – OA only (n=2505) Patients were selected using a clinical data repository system (i2b2) at the KU

6. Methods: Variables: – OA diagnoses codes using ICD-9 and ICD-10 – DM diagnoses codes using ICD-9 and ICD-10 – Pain intensity: From flowsheet; vitals; pain vitals Pain intensity using numeric rating scale from 0-10 – Pain location: From flowsheet; vitals; pain vitals Pain location such as knee, hip, ankle, hand, fingers, wrist, elbow, shoulder, back, pelvis, groin, …etc

8. Data analysis: Link pain scores to pain locations Average pain scores for every patient Gender

9. Results: OA only group: patients count based on location= 3816 from 2505 patients Average pain intensity= 5.76 DM and OA group: patients count based on location= 1817 from 870 patients Average pain intensity=6.04 Females with DM and OA have higher pain intensity (mean=6.30) compared to males with DM and OA (mean=5.78), males with OA only (mean=5.81) and females with OA only (mean=5.72)

10. Table 1: Pain intensity based on OA and DM diagnoses, gender and locations:

11. Discussion/conclusion: Partial support to our hypothesis: – DM shows more pain in people with OA Pathophysiological changes that DM might add to OA Advanced glycation end products, reactive oxygen species and vascular change due to DM – Females with DM had higher pain intensity The prevalence of OA is higher in females Hormonal changes & DM may contribute to higher pain intensity DM might be associated with higher pain intensity in people with OA

12. Limitations: Other associated factors have not been examined – Medications, surgery or injections – BMI, neuropathy, dyslipidemia and hypertension Pain intensity scores were averaged for every patients – The range was extremely wide and it might affect the overall pain scores – Combined in-patient and outpatient data – frequent and different OA locations within the same subject such as leg & knee

13. Future directions: Pain intensity with more strict definition: – Using index dates such as first 3 scores within the first 3 months each year – Evaluate the temporal relationship and trajectory of pain over time Examine pain description including burning, tingling and numbness that are associated with neuropathy Evaluate medications prescribed & surgical or intra- articular injections that may affect pain Examine the association between glycemic control and pain characteristics Examine generalized vs localized OA pain among patients with DM
