Results: A total of 30 studies were selected in this review from 221,510 studies screened from electronic databases. The overall prevalence of OA is in a range of 20.5% to 68.0%. Most of the Asian populations reported to have knee OA in a range of 13.1% to 71.1% in various Asian countries.

Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) is estimated to be the eleventh leading cause of disability
worldwide. In Asian countries, OA is much less well-known than in the caucasian
population and strongly associated with aging. Therefore, this article focuses
comprehensively on the prevalence, risk factors and primary prevention for OA identified in
Asian countries.
Methods: This scoping review used the methodological framework by Arksey and
O'Malley (2005). Pertaining to this topic, a comprehensive search on academic journals
published from 2008 to 2018 (English) was conducted.
Results: A total of 30 studies were selected in this review from 221,510 studies screened
from electronic databases. The overall prevalence of OA is in a range of 20.5% to 68.0%.
Most of the Asian populations reported to have knee OA in a range of 13.1% to 71.1% in
various Asian countries. Risk factors that have been associated with OA are advanced age,
being the female and obesity. Osteoporosis, higher body mass density, low level of
education, family history of OA, smoking and environmental factors appeared as significant
risk factors for OA. A strategic method of primary prevention for OA through lifestyle
modification is reducing obesity and treating concomitant cardiovascular disease.
Conclusion: Determining OA prevalence and risk factors will provide important
information for planning future cost-effective preventive strategies. |
