RA Group (n=60) | OA Group (n=18) | P-value (RA vs OA) | |
---|---|---|---|
ucOC (ng/mL) | 19.83±19.00‡ | 21.27±16.90‡ | NS |
CT (pg/mL) | 23.0±10.9‡ | 20.5±8.3‡ | NS |
VitD (mg/mL) | 84.3±64.5‡ | 105.9±53.1‡ | <0.01 |

Two-sided P-value for the comparison between RA Group and OA Group are determined by Mann-Whitney test. Two-sided P-value for the comparison between baseline and 6 months in each group are determined by Wilcoxon signed rank test. †P<0.05, ‡P<0.01, §P<0.001 vs before.
