The analysis used data from the National Outcomes Evaluation Study (2015–2017) of the OAANSP. HDM recipients’ mean usual protein intake was significantly higher than controls, but both groups had mean intakes below recommendations. Eating alone was inversely associated with lower protein intake and greater hospitalizations in controls. FI, prevalent in 25.1% of HDM recipient and 16% of controls, was associated with lower protein intake in both groups. Receiving instrumental social support was directly associated with lesser severity of FI in recipients. and more depressive symptoms only in controls. HDM recipients and controls may be at high risk for protein insufficiency, underscored by high prevalence of FI.","PeriodicalId":38899,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nutrition in Gerontology and Geriatrics","volume":"114 1","pages":"201 - 216"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75994730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim was to assess changes in weight, body composition and physical function following weight loss or weight maintenance interventions in knee OA. A comprehensive search of four databases was conducted. The risk of bias was assessed using the Quality Criteria Checklist for primary research. Primary outcomes included weight, body composition and physical function; secondary outcomes were lipids, inflammatory biomarkers and muscle strength. Eleven studies were included utilizing diet and exercise (n = 4) or diet-only (n = 7) interventions, two of which were weight maintenance studies. Most studies (n = 10) reported improvements in physical function with significant weight loss, while the change in strength reported in three studies was variable. The diet and exercise studies reported an average reduction in weight of 6.7% and lean mass of 1.6 kg, with greater improvements in physical function. The diet-only studies, including weight maintenance interventions, reported greater average weight loss (7.8%) and reduction in LM (2.0 kg). Overall, better retention of lean mass and muscle strength was observed in participants with higher protein intake (≥37% of energy) and subsequently improved physical function.","PeriodicalId":38899,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nutrition in Gerontology and Geriatrics","volume":"8 1","pages":"103 - 125"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79122048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
