• A sex- and site-specific relationship between body mass index and osteoarthritis: evidence from observational and genetic analyses. - Osteoarthritis and cartilage (2023) · Zhang L, Zhang W, Wu X, Cui H, Yan P, Yang C, Zhao X, Xiao J, Xiao C, Tang M, Wang Y, Chen L, Liu Y, Zou Y, Zhang L, Yang Y, Yao Y, Li J, Liu Z, Yang C, Zhang B, Jiang X · PubMed 36889626

  We primarily aimed to investigate whether there are phenotypic and genetic links underlying body mass index (BMI) and overall osteoarthritis (OA). We then intended to explore whether the relationships differ across sexes and sites. We first evaluated the phenotypic association between BMI and overall OA using data from the UK Biobank. We then investigated the genetic relationship leveraging summary statistics of the hitherto largest genome-wide association studies performed for BMI and overall OA. Finally, we repeated all analyses in a sex- (female, male) and site- (knee, hip, spine) specific manner. Observational analysis suggested an increased hazard of diagnosed OA per 5 kg/m increment in BMI (hazard ratio = 1.38, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.37-1.39). A positive overall geneti
