Objective Obesity was once considered a risk factor for knee osteoarthritis (OA) primarily for
biomechanical reasons. Here we provide an additional perspective by discussing how …

Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease and a major cause of disability. The knee is
the large joint most affected. While chronological age is the single most important risk factor …

Background The association between obesity and knee osteoarthritis, and specifically the
role of obesity as a risk factor for knee osteoarthritis has been well documented. A …

Although osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common musculoskeletal condition that causes
significant health and social problems worldwide, its exact etiology is still unclear. With an …

Objective Our primary aim was to determine the cross‐sectional relationship between knee
biomechanics during gait and pain in people with medial knee osteoarthritis. Our secondary …

Objectives To evaluate the compartmental distribution of knee osteoarthritis (OA) after
anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), to determine if patellofemoral or …

Purpose This narrative review describes experiences at the Fowler Kennedy Sport Medicine
Clinic (FKSMC) with high tibial osteotomy (HTO) for patients with varus gonarthrosis, with …

Objective The external knee adduction moment (EAM) is often considered a surrogate
measure of the distribution of loads across the tibiofemoral joint during walking. This study …

Objectives Knee osteoarthritis (OA) pain is suggested to be associated with inflammation
and detrimental mechanical loading across the joint. In this cross-sectional study, we …

Objective Knee cartilage damage is often linked to mechanical overloading. However,
cartilage requires mechanical load to remain healthy, suggesting that underloading may be …
