Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis Have a Phenotype With Higher Bone Mass, Higher Fat Mass, and Lower Lean Body Mass

Abstract: Background Although knee osteoarthritis (OA) is common, its etiology is poorly understood. Specifically, it is not known whether knee OA is associated with abnormal anthropometric and musculoskeletal characteristics known to be associated with OA in general. We recently studied this topic for patients with hip arthritis; however, it is important to evaluate it for knee OA separately, because there are reports indicating that patients with primary OA in different joints may have a different phenotype.

“…Despite a decrease in pain sensitivity with increased age, older adults tend to have decreased tolerance to pain (Molton & Terrill, 2014). Our BMI findings support prior work noting the negative impact of body weight in terms of causing pain in the weight bearing joints of the musculoskeletal system (Karlsson, Magnusson, Cöster, Karlsson, & Rosengren, 2015). …”

“…Then, full articles were extracted for further assessment after reviewing the titles and abstracts. Eventually, 19 studies (10 cross‐sectional, 5 case‐control and 4 cohort studies) were included in the present systematic review and meta‐analysis. The study screening process is shown in Figure , and the study characteristics and NOS score of the 19 included articles are shown in Table .…”

“…reported that low skeletal muscle mass, which defined from skeletal muscle mass of 4 extremities, correlates with knee OA in the obese [14]. Recently, one also suggested that patients with knee OA have a proportionally lower lean body mass, not lower ‘lower’ limb lean body mass [13]. While skeletal muscle mass might be shown similar patterns between upper and lower limbs in an individual, they have been studied to have different aging processes.…”
