The regression model included at a minimum the covariates of age group, race/ethnicity, insurance type, BMI category, hemophilia type, hepatitis B and C, HIV status, and baseline FA level. Invasive orthopedic procedures included arthrodesis; joint replacement; arthroscopic, radioisotopic, or open synovectomy; and any other invasive procedure.
