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

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 ...

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 ...

The knee adduction moment in hamstring and patellar tendon anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed knees [PDF]
AbstractPurposeThe external knee adduction moment during gait has previously been associated with knee osteoarthritis, and although it has been shown to be greater following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery compared to a control group, it has not been compared between different graft types.

Differential Effects of Hip Rotation Range on Knee Abduction Biomechanics during Double-Legged Landing between Males and Females [PDF]
Objectives Dynamic knee valgus is composed of hip-knee coupling. While females differ from males in passive hip motion, hip rotation range may alter muscle mechanics and neuromuscular activity.
