Background To investigate (1) the association of specific biomechanical factors with knee
osteoarthritis and knee osteoarthritis development, and (2) the impact of other relevant risk …

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of chronic pain and disability in older adults, which
most commonly affects the joints of the knee, hip, and hand. To date, there are no …

Chondrocyte mechanotransduction is not well understood, but recently, it has been
proposed that mechanically activated ion channels such as transient receptor potential …

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the main cause of disability in the elderly. Effective intervention in the
early and middle stage of osteoarthritis can greatly prevent or slow down the development of …

Background Individuals with advanced hip osteoarthritis (OA) exhibit generalized muscle
weakness of the affected limb and so clinical practice guidelines recommend strength …

Biomechanics plays a significant yet complex role in osteoarthritis (OA) onset and
progression. Identifying alterations in biomechanical factors and their complex interactions is …

Mechanics play a critical–but not sole–role in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis, and recent
research has highlighted how mechanical constructs are relevant at the cellular, joint, and …

This paper explores the use of biomechanics in identifying the mechanistic causes of
musculoskeletal tissue injury and degeneration. It appraises how biomechanics has been …

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint disorder that is highly extended in the global population. Several
researches and therapeutic strategies have been probed on OA but without satisfactory long …

The purpose of this case-control study was to characterise hip joint kinematics and moments
during gait in people with mild-to-moderate hip osteoarthritis (OA). Eligible participants were …
