Knee adduction moments are not increased in obese knee osteoarthritis patients during stair negotiation [PDF]

Gait & Posture, 2019
Negotiating stairs is an important activity of daily living that is also associated with large loads on the knee joint. In medial compartment knee osteoarthritis, the knee adduction moment during level walking is considered a marker for disease severity. It could be argued that the discriminative capability of this parameter is even better if tested in

Are mechanics different between male and female runners with patellofemoral pain? [PDF]

, 2012
INTRODUCTION: Patellofemoral pain (PFP) has often been attributed to abnormal hip and knee mechanics in females. To date, there have been few investigations of the hip and knee mechanics of males with PFP.

Knee Load Distribution in Hip Osteoarthritis Patients After Total Hip Replacement

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Reduced external knee adduction moments in the second half of stance after total hip replacement have been reported in hip osteoarthritis patients. This reduction is thought to shift the load from the medial to the lateral knee compartment and as such ...

Are mice good models for human neuromuscular disease? Comparing muscle excursions in walking between mice and humans [PDF]

, 2017
The mouse is one of the most widely used animal models to study neuromuscular diseases and test new therapeutic strategies. However, findings from successful pre-clinical studies using mouse models frequently fail to translate to humans due to various ...

Relationship between hip strength and frontal plane posture of the knee during a forward lunge [PDF]

, 2007
Objective: Excessive frontal plane knee movement during forward lunge movements might be associated with the occurrence of knee injuries in tennis. Here, we attempt to determine whether hip muscle strength is related to the frontal plane motion of the ...
