The aim: To examine the features of the clinical course of osteoarthritis in combination with type 2 diabetes on the background of obesity and hypertension. Materials and methods: 116 patients who were in the inpatient stage of treatment in the rheumatology department of the Chernivtsi Regional Clinical Hospital during 2015-2017 were examined. The epidemiological and clinical features of osteoarthritis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were also analyzed. Results: It was found that the course of osteoarthritis is extremely severe with limited range of motion in the joints, their deformation and significant deterioration of functional capacity, duration of pain, periodic prolonged exacerbations, the predominance of knee and hip injuries (64.8%) and 14.8 persons - small joints. This showed the progression and generalization of processes in various joints, aggravation of the course and prognosis of osteoarthritis, especially in women. Their prevalence was registered at II radiological stage (59.27% and 74.0%, respectively). Conclusions: The authors emphasize that such a clinical course indicates the worst prognosis. This multimorbidity of diseases requires treatment, observation and consultation with a traumatologist, rheumatologist and endocrinologist, due to the multisystem approach to the treatment and rehabilitation of such patients with an emphasis on individual clinical features (including gender) and the course of comorbidities or syndromes.
