Reduced Muscle Strength Can Alter the Impact of Gait Modifications on Knee Cartilage Mechanics

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Muscle strength can substantially influence knee joint loading, stability, and cartilage biomechanics, all of which are important factors in the onset and progression of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Noninvasive rehabilitation methods, such as gait modifications, are suggested to effectively alter knee joint loading, potentially helping to ...

Ultrasound Neuromodulation (Low‐Intensity Focused Ultrasound) to Treat Knee Osteoarthritis Pain

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Low‐intensity focused ultrasound is a non‐invasive neuromodulation technique that delivers mechanical forces to a deep location within the body through acoustic pressure waves without affecting tissue between the transducer and focal target. Preliminary studies involving healthy volunteers suggest focused ultrasound reversibly prevents action potential

Characteristics of eligible patients with knee osteoarthritis accepting versus declining participation in a randomised trial investigating the effect of weight loss versus knee arthroplasty to explore generalisability: A cross‐sectional study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The INtensive diet versus Knee Arthroplasty (INKA) trial is a randomised trial assessing weight loss as an alternative to knee arthroplasty (KA) in obese patients with severe knee osteoarthritis (OA) awaiting KA (NCT05172843). The external validity of the INKA trial may be hampered if the patients who participate differ from those ...
