The Collaborative Lifestyle Intervention Program in Knee Osteoarthritis Patients (CLIP-OA) trial: Design and methods
2022, Contemporary Clinical TrialsCitation Excerpt :Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent chronic degenerative disease that serves as a primary cause of mobility disability among older adults in the United States [1–4]. The joint damage and pain accompanying symptomatic knee OA is associated with muscle weakness, activity restriction, and limitations in basic mobility-related functional tasks [2,3]. Obesity is also now recognized as one of the primary modifiable risk factors for the pathogenesis and progression of symptomatic knee OA and is widely prevalent among older knee OA patients with estimates of approximately half of all patients being overweight or obese [5].

2021, Arthroplasty TodayCitation Excerpt :“Other” failure mechanisms occurred in all BMI groups but were increased in the super morbid BMI (BMI ≥ 50.1 kg/m2) (Fig. 3). Obesity plays a significant role in the development of knee OA and presents a challenge for surgical treatment [3-8,16]. The prevalence of OA in the United States is expected to continue rising because of an aging population along with a worsening obesity epidemic [1].

2019, Joint Bone SpineCitation Excerpt :The Western diet and the increasingly sedentary lifestyle have led to an increase in overweight and obese individuals. The association of obesity with OA has been recognized many years ago [5], and has been supported by a great amount of evidence since then [6–10]. For long it was thought that obesity mainly resulted in an increased mechanical loading, leading to mechanical stress, increased wear-and-tear, and subsequently to cartilage degradation and OA [11].
