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

CONTEXT: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a musculoskeletal disorder primarily affecting the older
population and resulting in chronic pain and disability. Biomechanical variables, associated …

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury predisposes individuals to early-onset
knee joint osteoarthritis (OA). Abnormal joint loading is apparent after ACL injury and …

Mechanical factors have been implicated in the progression of knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Understanding how these factors change as the condition progresses would elucidate their …

Large knee adduction moments during gait have been implicated as a mechanical factor
related to the progression and severity of tibiofemoral osteoarthritis and it has been …

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

Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a multifactoral, progressive disease process of the
musculoskeletal system. Mechanical factors have been implicated in the progression of …

Background As knee osteoarthritis (OA) cannot be cured, treatments that slow structural
disease progression are a priority. Knee muscle activation has a potential role in OA …

Objective To compare the knee joint loading patterns in individuals with differing
radiographic grades of knee osteoarthritis (OA) for characterization of the mechanical …

This paper compared the neuromuscular responses during walking between those with
early-stage knee osteoarthritis (OA) to asymptomatic controls. The rationale for studying …
