Fatigue Induced Changes in Muscle Strength and Gait Following Two Different Intensity, Energy Expenditure Matched Runs [PDF]
Purpose: To investigate changes in hip and knee strength, kinematics, and running variability following two energy expenditure matched training runs; a medium intensity continuous run (MICR) and a high intensity interval training session (HIIT). Methods:

Discrepancies in Knee Joint Moments Using Common Anatomical Frames Defined by Different Palpable Landmarks [PDF]
The aim was to investigate the effects of three anatomical frames using palpable anatomical landmarks of the knee on the net knee joint moments. The femoral epicondyles, femoral condyles, and tibial ridges were used to define the different anatomical ...

Change in adduction moment following medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy: a meta-analysis
Background This meta-analysis was designed to quantify adduction moment loss, to evaluate the relationship between changes in mechanical axis alignment and adduction moment, and to assess whether sagittal plane moment is altered after medial open wedge ...

The association of quadriceps strength with the knee adduction moment in medial knee osteoarthritis [PDF]
AbstractObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between quadriceps strength and the peak knee adduction moment during walking in medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis (OA), and whether varus malalignment influences this relationship.MethodsMaximum isometric quadriceps strength at 60° flexion relative to body mass and the peak knee adduction moment during

Direct and indirect orthotic management of medial compartment osteoarthritis of the knee [PDF]
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a painful condition and affects approximately 80% of individuals by the age of 55 [1], with knee OA occurring two times more frequently than OA of the hand or hip [2].The condition is more prevalent in the medial compartment and ...

An inverse dynamics model for the analysis, reconstruction and prediction of bipedal walking [PDF]
Walking is a constrained movement which may best be observed during the double stance phase when both feet contact the floor. When analyzing a measured movement with an inverse dynamics model, a violation of these constrains will always occur due to ...
