Associations of knee muscle force, bone malalignment, and knee-joint laxity with osteoarthritis in elderly people
[Purpose] From the viewpoint of prevention of knee osteoarthritis, the aim of this study was to verify how muscle strength and joint laxity are related to knee osteoarthritis. [Subjects and Methods] The study subjects consisted of 90 community-dwelling elderly people aged more than 60 years (22 males, 68 females). Femorotibial angle alignment, knee joint laxity, knee extensors and flexor muscle...
متن کاملDynamic Knee Alignment and Collateral Knee Laxity and Its Variations in Normal Humans
Alignment of normal, arthritic, and replaced human knees is a much debated subject as is the collateral ligamentous laxity. Traditional quantitative values have been challenged. Methods used to measure these are also not without flaws. Authors review the recent literature and a novel method of measurement of these values has been included. This method includes use of computer navigation techniq...
متن کاملDynamic alignment and its association with knee adduction moment in medial knee osteoarthritis.
Lower limb dynamic alignment represents the limb position during functional loading conditions and obtains valuable information throughout the gait cycle rather than a single instant in time. This study aims to determine whether dynamic alignment is altered in medial knee osteoarthritis (OA) and how dynamic alignment is related to knee adduction moment (KAM). Community-dwelling women (n=17) wit...
متن کاملRelationship between knee joint laxity and knee joint mechanics during the menstrual cycle.
BACKGROUND An increase in knee laxity during the menstrual cycle may increase the risk of anterior cruciate ligament injury. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether changing knee laxity during the menstrual cycle correlates with changing knee joint loads in a cutting manoeuvre. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Laboratory testing. PARTICIPANTS 25 healthy women, with a normal menstrual cycl...
متن کاملflexibility of knee joint muscles in women with knee osteoarthritis and healthy controls
background: osteoarthritis is one of the most common diseases in synovial joints. dueto high loading forces during weight-bearing activities, the knee joint is prone to degenerative processes. this study aimed to compare the flexibility of muscles around the knee joint in patients with knee osteoarthritis with those of healthy individuals. methods: twenty-three women with bilateral knee osteoar...
