According to the results of a study conducted in Surakarta, it was found that with a body mass index > 25 (overweight), the risk of developing osteoarthritis is 4.9 times higher than that of the elderly with a body mass index of 18.5-25 .0. The aim of this study was to determine whether there is an association between osteoarthritis of the knee and BMI in the elderly in the orthopedic outpatient clinic of Soewandhie Hospital, Surabaya. The method used to identify osteoarthritis patients is a cross- sectional observational analysis.

In a review based on Spearman's rank correlation, BMI and degree of osteoarthritis in Soewandhie Hospital Surabaya knows that the value of the correlation coefficient or value of r = 0.554 is close to 1, indicating that the correlation level has a positive direction and is quite strong.
