Summary

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a condition affecting the whole joint and is a major cause of pain and disability worldwide. Although OA is very common, the initial steps which lead to the development of pain and tissue damage are not fully understood. In this study participants will be investigated for markers in the blood, joint and urine in people who have a diagnosis of osteoarthritis or inflammatory arthritis and are receiving a steroid injection for their condition. Markers will be evaluated in participants with osteoarthritis compared with other types of arthritis, including rheumatoid arthritis and spondyloarthritis.
