Subjects with
sustained synovitis over 4 years had significantly greater progression of
meniscus, bone marrow and
cartilage degeneration measured using semi-quantitative whole-organ magnetic
resonance imaging scores (WORMS) compared to controls without synovitis.
Figure 2. Bar graph of adjusted mean differences (age, gender, BMI) in WORMS
scores between baseline and 4 years of medial meniscus body for cases of
sustained synovitis based on definition (i) and controls. The error bars
represent 95% confidence intervals.

BMI) in WORMS scores between baseline and 4 years of bone marrow edema in the lateral
tibia for cases of sustained synovitis based on definition (i) and controls. The
error bars represent 95% confidence intervals.
