Step‐by‐step insight into gait analysis: A narrative review unlocking knee biomechanics
Abstract Gait analysis offers a powerful tool for clinical and orthopaedic decision‐making. By quantifying spatiotemporal, kinematic and kinetic parameters during walking, it provides a dynamic window into joint function that static imaging cannot capture.

Abstract Purpose To investigate the association between autograft size and graft failure for hamstrings tendon (HT), patellar tendon (PT) and quadriceps tendon (QT) autografts. Methods Medline, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, Amed and Web of Science were searched at four separate time points, with the most recent search in February 2025.

Abstract Purpose To compare clinical outcomes in varus‐aligned patients undergoing cruciate‐retaining total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with mechanical alignment (MA) versus unrestricted kinematic alignment (KA). The hypothesis was that KA would yield superior outcomes, and that preserving joint line obliquity—regardless of alignment technique—would be ...

Abstract Purpose To determine whether posterior tibial slope (PTS) measured to proximal anatomical axes can serve as a reliable proxy for PTS measured to the mechanical tibial axis (mTA). Methods In patients ≥18 years with failed anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, medial and lateral PTS were measured relative to the mTA on a lateral lower‐leg ...

Personalized alignment in total knee arthroplasty reduces patellar tilt: A retrospective study
Abstract Purpose Patellofemoral kinematics is crucial for patient satisfaction following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). A postoperative patellar tilt greater than 5° has been associated with inferior clinical outcomes. While a femoral component external rotation beyond 3° is generally protective against patellar tilt, personalized alignment may not ...
