Table 3.

At MBHMS Visit 11, the odds (with 95% confidence intervals) of having knee OA (K-L score ≥ 2) according to the presence or absence of cardiometabolic clustering within obesity category

	Cardiometabolic Clustering	N	N (%) with knee OA	OR (95% CI)^*
Non-obese
< 30 kg/m²	No	212	10 (4.7%)	Reference group
< 30 kg/m²	Yes	85	5 (5.9%)	1.28 (0.43, 3.87)
Obese
≥ 30 kg/m²	No	47	6 (12.8%)	3.00 (1.03, 8.71)^†
≥ 30 kg/m²	Yes	138	32 (23.2%)	6.20 (2.93, 13.07)^‡

Odds ratios and 95% CI are from an unadjusted logistic regression models with non-obese without cardiometabolic clustering group as the referent category.
