Objective: The pathogenesis and progression of osteoarthritis (OA) are related to low-grade inflammation. Objectives were conducted; first to investigate whether neutrophil-to-lymphocyte, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratios are appropriate parameters to determine low-grade inflammation in knee OA. The second objective was to evaluate whether vitamin-D deficiency contributes to the severity of OA and these inflammatory parameters as well.
