Role of Obesity on the Risk for Total Hip or Knee Arthroplasty
Abstract
We asked whether there was an association between obesity levels and subsequent THA or TKA using data from 54,406 THA and TKA patients entered into the Canadian Joint Replacement Registry. We compared these patients with a sample of the Canadian population using the Canadian Community Health Survey of 2006. We analyzed information from the Canadian Joint Replacement Registry to quantify the relative risk for THA or TKA in Canada for specific body mass index categories. In reference to the acceptable weight category of body mass index less than 25 kg/m2, the risk for TKA and THA was 3.20- and 1.92-fold higher, respectively, for overweight individuals (body mass index 25-29.9 kg/m2); 8.53- (TKA) and 3.42-fold (THA) higher for those in the obese Class I (body mass index 30-34.9 kg/m2) category; 18.73- (TKA) and 5.24-fold (THA) higher for those identified in obese Class II (body mass index 35-39.9 kg/m2); and 32.73- (TKA) and 8.56-fold (THA) higher for people in obese Class III group (body mass index > 40 kg/m2). Thus, our data support an association between obesity and subsequent THA and TKA.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
