Diabetics exhibited a significantly greater increase in cartilage and meniscus lesions when compared to diabetes-free controls over 4 years. Overall, our findings suggest that diabetics exhibit a stronger deterioration of knee structure and are therefore potentially at higher risk for developing knee OA.
