Obesity is Associated with an Increased Prevalence of Glenohumeral Osteoarthritis and Arthroplasty: A Cohort Study.
Orthopedic Clinics of North America 2020 April
The relationship between obesity and glenohumeral osteoarthritis is relatively understudied. The purpose of this study was to better define this relationship by age- and gender-matching 596,874 patients across six body mass index (BMI) cohorts and determining the prevalence of glenohumeral osteoarthritis and the standardized rate of glenohumeral arthroplasty in each cohort. Individuals with a BMI over 24 were found to be at increased odds for developing glenohumeral osteoarthritis, compared to the normal BMI cohort, and individuals with a BMI over 30 were additionally found to be at increased odds for undergoing glenohumeral arthroplasty.
