  • Multiple logistic regression controlling for diagnosis, race, BMI, SF-36 PCS, preoperative WOMAC Pain, preoperative WOMAC Function, preoperative LEAS, preoperative SF-36 MCS, and preoperative EQ-5D index score. Significant data are in bold face. OA: osteoarthritis; RA: rheumatoid arthritis; BMI: body mass index; SF-36: Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36; PCS: physical component summary; WOMAC: Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index; LEAS: Lower Extremity Activity Scale; MCS: mental component summary.
