Abstrakt:	A recent report from Boston University provides new insights into osteoarthritis. The study focused on individuals with chronic pain due to knee osteoarthritis and their levels of physical activity. The researchers found that individuals with greater peripheral and central sensitivity experienced lower step counts, indicating reduced physical activity. The study suggests that further research should explore ways to modify or treat heightened pain sensitivity in order to increase physical activity in older adults with knee osteoarthritis.
