Oxidative balance score and the potential for suffering rheumatoid arthritis: a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Our study was conducted to explore the link between oxidative balance score (OBS) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Methods

A total of 21,415 participants were included in our research from five cycles (2011-2012, 2013-2014, 2015-2016, 2017-2018, and 2017-2020) of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Moreover, 20 elements related to diet as well as lifestyle were combined to calculate OBS. The relationship between OBS and RA was assessed by employing multivariable regression analysis, and further exploration was carried out through subgroup analysis, restricted cubic spline analysis, and sensitivity analysis. Multiple covariates were selected to adjust the model for more robust results.

Results

In our cross-sectional study, a higher OB
