  1. aBML absent (226) versus present (168). Odds ratios (ORs) have been standardized. bAdjusted for age, sex, body mass index, smoking, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and radiographic osteoarthritis. cFurther adjusted for statin use. Boldface denotes a statistically significant result. BMLs, bone marrow lesions; 95% CI, 95% confidence interval; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; P, P value.
