Quantitative Sensory Testing in Painful Hand Osteoarthritis Demonstrates Features of Peripheral Sensitisation
Figure 4
Comparison of pain pressure thresholds by algometer testing with Kellgren-Lawrence score by joint distribution in the hand OA cohort. Algometer versus K-L scores are also shown in DIP/PIP joints (a), thumb IP joints (b), and MCP joints (c). Differences between groups were analysed using an unpaired -test (significance considered at ).
