Popis: Objective:The purpose of this study is to investigate the utility of systemic immune inflammation index as a predictor of disease severity in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Methods: 200 patients diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis according to ACR knee osteoarthritis diagnostic criteria were included in the study. Kellgren-Lawrence staging of knee osteoarthritis, Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis (WOMAC) index score and systemic immune-inflammation index score were calculated among all participants Results: There were 152 (%76) female and 48 (%24) male participants and median score of age was 63 (54,25-70). 14 (7%) grade 1 gonarthrosis, 64 (32%) grade 2, 72 (36%) grade 3 and 50 (25%) grade 4 gonarthrosis patients were detected. There was no significant correlation between the systemic immune-inflammation index and the radiological stage of gonarthrosis (Kellgren Lawrens Score) (p=0.238). No statistically significant correlation was found between the systemic immune-inflammation index and WOMAC scores (p=0.593). Conclusion: The systemic immune-inflammation index was not found to be correlated with disease severity in knee OA.
