Knee adduction moment relates to medial femoral and tibial cartilage morphology in clinical knee osteoarthritis.
The objective was to determine the extent to which the external peak knee adduction moment (KAM) and cumulative knee adductor load explained variation in medial cartilage morphology of the tibia and femur in knee osteoarthritis (OA). Sixty-two adults with clinical knee OA participated (61.5 ± 6.2 years). To determine KAM, inverse dynamics was applied to motion and force data of walking. Cumulat...
متن کاملEffects 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)...
متن کاملGenetic contribution to radiographic severity in osteoarthritis of the knee
OBJECTIVE Knee osteoarthritis (OA) has a significant genetic component. The authors have assessed the role of three variants reported to influence risk of knee OA with p<5×10-8 in determining patellofemoral and tibiofemoral Kellgren Lawrence (K/L) grade in knee OA cases. METHODS 3474 knee OA cases with sky-line and weight-bearing antero-posterior x-rays of the knee were selected based on the ...
متن کاملRelationships among foot position, lower limb alignment, and knee adduction moment in patients with degenerative knee osteoarthritis
[Purpose] The aim of this study was to determine the relationships among the foot progression angle, foot rotation angle, lower limb alignment, and knee adduction moments in patients with degenerative knee osteoarthritis (OA). [Subjects] Forty-eight patients diagnosed with degenerative knee OA (Kellgren-Lawrence grades 2 and 3) were included. [Methods] To assess the lower extremity alignment an...
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...
