Association of physical activity with loss of knee joint space width over two years: a compositional data analysis in the Osteoarthritis Initiative

Osteoarthritis CartilagePublished Secondary analysis of the Osteoarthritis Initiative cohort

Authors' conclusion

Using CoDA, PA composition was not associated with medial JSW loss over 2 years.

Study context

Population
Subset of Osteoarthritis Initiative participants with 7-day minute-by-minute activity data at baseline (age 64.5 years, 56% female, BMI 28.8 kg/m²)
Participants
969 participants
Comparison
Physical activity (PA) composition and medial knee joint space width (JSW) loss
Primary endpoint
Medial JSW loss: difference in medial tibiofemoral JSW from baseline to 2 years
Follow-up
2 years
Methodological detailscompositional data analysis, isometric log-ratio transformation, adjusted regression
  • Compositional data analysis
  • Isometric log-ratio transformation
  • Adjusted regression
