Direct acyclic graphs of mediation models. Beta coefficients (95% confidence intervals) are given for indirect and direct effects of weight loss on change of effusion-synovitis (A) and Hoffa-synovitis (B). All models are adjusted for age, sex, baseline BMI, PASE, and average joint-adjacent subcutaneous fat (ajSCF). * calculated as percentiles bootstrap confidence intervals
