Changes in knee adduction moment with a variable-stiffness shoe are related to changes in pain and function

Variable-stiffness walking shoe lowers knee adduction moment, reduces pain, and improves function in patients with osteoarthritis after one year

Investigation of the biomechanical effect of variable stiffness shoe on external knee adduction moment in various dynamic exercises

BACKGROUND The growing ageing population and high prevalence of knee osteoarthritis (OA) in athletes across nations have created a strong demand for improved non-invasive therapeutic alternatives for knee OA. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the variable stiffness shoe (VSS), a new non-invasive therapeutic approach, on external knee adduction moment (EKAM) in various dynami...

Variable Stiffness Shoe Alters Muscle Activations and Knee Joint Moments

Medial compartment knee osteoarthritis (OA) is nearly 10 times more common than lateral compartment OA [1] and develops in approximately 20-40 % of adults over the age of 60 [2]. A high maximum knee adduction moment in walking has been associated with OA rate of progression, treatment outcome, and disease severity. The use of a shoe intervention with a more rigid lateral compared to medial mids...

Effects of backward gait training protocol on knee adduction moment and impulse during walking in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis

Background and Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of backward gait training protocol on knee adduction moment and impulse in male patients with medial knee osteoarthritis. Materials and Methods: This quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design included two control groups (healthy and patient) and an experimental group (subjects with medial knee osteoarthritis)...
