متن کاملThumb base involvement in symptomatic hand osteoarthritis is associated with more pain and functional disability.
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of different subsets of symptomatic hand osteoarthritis (OA) on pain and disability. METHODS From 308 patients with hand OA a group with carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ) symptoms only (group I, n=20) was identified as well as groups with symptoms at the interphalangeal joints (IPJs) only (group II, n=138), and symptoms at both sites (group III, n=150).

Fifty-six participants were assigned randomly to splint order in a two-p...
