A method for predicting the severity or progression of osteoarthritis (OA) in a human subject, comprising: determining the identity of at least one allele at each of at least 4 positions of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) selected from the group consisting of: rs2206593, rs10465850, rs780094, rs1374281, rs1143634, rs2073508, rs2243250, rs4720262, rs917760, rs7838918, rs12009, rs730720, rs874692, rs893953, rs1799750, rs10845493, rs11054704, rs7986347, rs1802536, rs10519263, rs7342880, rs16947882 and rs10413815, and one or more SNPs in linkage disequilibrium at a level of at least R2>=0.8 therewith, as well as products, in particular systems and kits for use in such a method. |
