Objective To identify which gait deviations are consistently associated with knee
osteoarthritis (KOA) and how these are influenced by disease severity, the involved …

Background Kinematic changes in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) have been
extensively studied. Concerns have been raised whether the measured spatiotemporal and …

BACKGROUND: The knee osteoarthritis biomechanics literature is varied in how
researchers deal with the potentially confounding effects of differences in walking speed …

BACKGROUND: While knee osteoarthritis has been shown to affect a multitude of kinematic,
kinetic and temporo-spatial gait parameters, few investigations have examined the effect of …

BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis patients may exhibit different kinematics according to the
disease stage. However, changes in the frontal and horizontal planes in each stage remain …

Background The purpose of this study was to examine the differences in gait profile between
patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) and healthy control and to create motion …

BACKGROUND: Although gait characteristics have been well documented in people with
knee osteoarthritis, little is known about the relationships between gait characteristics and …

BACKGROUND: Compared to matched controls, knee osteoarthritis patients walk with
altered, kinematics, kinetics and muscle activity. Studies of osteoarthritis patient gait have …

Gait adaptations in people with severe knee osteoarthritis (OA) have been well documented,
with increased knee adduction moments (KAM) the most commonly reported parameter …

Objective This study tests the hypothesis that the peak external knee adduction moment
during gait is increased in a group of ambulatory subjects with knee osteoarthritis (OA) of …
