In patients with pre-existing heart failure or coronary heart disease, obese individuals have a more favourable prognosis compared to individuals who are of normal weight. This paradoxical relationship between obesity and CVD has been termed the \u2018obesity paradox\u2019. This phenomenon has also been observed in patients with other cardiovascular conditions and diseases of the respiratory and renal systems. Taking into consideration the well-established relationship between osteoarthritis (OA) and CVD, emerging evidence shows that overweight and obese individuals undergoing total hip or knee replacement for OA have lower mortality risk compared with normal weight individuals, suggesting an obesity paradox. Factors proposed to explain the obesity paradox include the role of cardiorespiratory fitness (\u201cfat but fit\u201d), the increased amount of lean mass in obese people, additional adipose tissue serving as a metabolic reserve, biases such as\u00a0reverse causation and confounding by smoking, and the co-existence of older age and specific comorbidities such as CVD. A wealth of evidence suggests that higher levels of fitness are accompanied by prolonged life expectancy across all levels of adiposity and that the increased mortality risk attributed to obesity can be attenuated with increased fitness. For patients about to have joint replacement, improving fitness levels through physical activities or exercises that are attractive and feasible, should be a priority if intentional weight loss is unlikely to be achieved.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s11357-021-00442-x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,27]],"date-time":"2021-08-27T20:02:46Z","timestamp":1630094566000},"page":"651-659","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Obesity paradox in joint replacement for osteoarthritis \u2014 truth or paradox?"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"44","author":[{"given":"Setor K.","family":"Kunutsor","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael R.","family":"Whitehouse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ashley W.","family":"Blom","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"442_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1016\/j.mam.2016.06.001","volume":"50","author":"J Angulo","year":"2016","unstructured":"Angulo J, El Assar M, Rodriguez-Manas L.
