2. Fig. 1
Subgroup analysis based on BMI and the percentage of muscle mass in both lower extremities correlation with knee OA. In women, obesity and non-obesity subgroups with a low percentage of muscle mass in both lower extremities were more closely associated with knee OA than the non-obesity subgroup with a normal percentage of muscle mass in both lower extremities (reference). However, the male subgroups did not show a significant association between obesity, muscle mass and knee OA compared to the reference group. Abbreviations: NN, non-obesity with a normal percentage of muscle mass in both lower extremities; NL, non-obesity with a low percentage of muscle mass in both lower extremities; ON, obesity with a normal percentage of muscle mass in both lower extremities; OL, obesity with a low percentage of muscle mass in both lower extremities.
