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

Objective The purpose of this systematic review was to describe studies examining
rehabilitation for people with osteoarthritis (OA) and to summarize findings from selected key …

Objective Lateral wedge shoe insoles decrease medial knee loading, but trials have shown
no effect on pain in medial knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, loading effects of insoles are …

used to manage this problem, including knee braces and lateral wedge insoles. However …

Background: Lateral wedge insoles adjusted by biomechanical analysis may improve the
condition of patients with medial knee osteoarthritis. Design: This is a prospective …

osteoarthritis. The theoretical basis for this intervention is to correct femorotibial angle …

Objective Recent clinical evidence supports that orthopaedic insoles, especially lateral-
wedge insoles, can significantly benefit patients with knee osteoarthritis. The aim of this …

Background Lateral wedge insoles are traditionally used to reduce the adduction moment
