Summary: | Objective
To determine the dose response effect of weight loss on clinical and mechanistic outcomes in overweight and obese adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Methods
This is a secondary analysis of the diet‐induced weight loss only (D) and diet‐induced weight loss plus exercise (D + E) groups in the Intensive Diet and Exercise for Arthritis randomized controlled clinical trial. The 240 participants were overweight and obese older community‐dwelling adults with pain and radiographic knee OA.
