Baseline BMLs and cartilage defects with cartilage volume loss (% per annum). (a) Mean cartilage volume loss of participants with no BML at baseline versus those with a BML at baseline. (b) Mean cartilage volume loss of participants with baseline cartilage defect grades 0 to 1 versus those with baseline defect grades 2 to 4. Error bars represent standard error.
