Abstract

Objectives: The prevalence of osteoarthritis (OA) has increased in the US. We report on a comparative effectiveness trial that compares Fit & Strong!, an existing evidence-based physical activity (PA) program, to Fit & Strong! Plus, which combines the Fit & Strong! intervention with a weight management intervention.

Methods: Participants included 413 overweight/obese (BMI 25-50 kg/m2) adults with lower extremity (LE) OA. The majority of the sample was African-American and female. Both interventions met 3 times weekly for 8 weeks. Primary measures included diet and weight.

Results: The baseline mean BMI for all participants was 34.8 kg/m², percentage of calories from fat was high, and self-reported PA was low.

Discussion: This sample of overweight/obese African-American adults had lifestyle patterns at baseline that were less than healthful, and there were differences between self-report and performance-based measures as a function of age.

健康强壮!另外:描述性人口统计学和风险特征在老年非洲裔成人骨关节炎的比较有效性试验。
目的:骨关节炎(OA)的患病率在美国有所上升。我们报告了一项比较有效性的试验,将Fit & Strong!,一个现有的循证体育活动(PA)计划,以Fit & Strong!加上,它结合了健康和强大!进行体重管理干预。方法:参与者包括413名超重/肥胖(BMI 25-50 kg/m2)下肢(LE) OA成人。大多数样本是非裔美国人和女性。两种干预措施每周进行3次,持续8周。主要指标包括饮食和体重。结果:所有参与者的基线平均BMI为34.8 kg/m²,脂肪卡路里百分比高,自我报告的PA低。讨论:这组超重/肥胖的非裔美国成年人的生活方式在基线时不太健康,自我报告和基于表现的测量之间存在年龄函数差异。
