Studies suggest an association between CTS and arthritis; however, previous studies examining osteoarthritis (OA) and CTS are limited in number, scope and study design. This study estimated the incidence and risk of CTS among patients with OA, both overall and by specific joints, in a large population-based cohort in the United States.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Patients from the Optum claims database aged\u2009\u2265\u200945\u00a0years and diagnosed with OA between January 1, 2018, and December 31, 2022, were eligible for the OA cohort. The non-OA cohort included those without a diagnosis of OA at the index date and no history of OA for 12\u00a0months pre-index. Baseline characteristics were balanced using propensity score matching. The risk of CTS in the OA and non-OA cohort were evaluated using incidence rates and adjusted hazard ratios that were estimated using Cox regression.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>After applying the inclusion\/exclusion criteria, 3,610,240 of the 6,023,384 adults with a diagnosis of OA remained in the OA cohort. After propensity-score matching, each cohort included 1,033,439 individuals. The incidence rates for CTS per 1000 person-years were 7.35 (95% confidence interval [CI] 7.21\u20137.49) in the OA cohort and 1.44 (95% CI 1.38\u20131.50) in the non-OA cohort. The risk of developing CTS in patients with OA was\u2009~\u20094 times that of patients without (hazard ratio\u2009=\u20093.80; 95% CI 3.54\u20134.07). This increased risk was found across all OA joint types, with OA of the hand\/wrist having the highest risk for CTS. Additionally, multiple OA joints presented a higher risk compared with a single affected joint.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>OA increases the risk of CTS, but this is not limited to patients with hand\/wrist OA, suggesting a systemic impact of OA on CTS.
