Peak knee joint moments accurately predict medial and lateral knee contact forces in patients with valgus malalignment

Scientific Reports, 2023
Compressive knee joint contact force during walking is thought to be related to initiation and progression of knee osteoarthritis. However, joint loading is often evaluated with surrogate measures, like the external knee adduction moment, due to the ...

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.

Electrical Impedance Myography Detects Disease Progression over 12 to 24 Months in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Targeted therapies for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) are progressing through clinical trials. Electrical impedance myography (EIM) provides a noninvasive biomarker of muscle composition that may be valuable especially in early phase trials. This study evaluated EIM data from a multicenter FSHD cohort over 24 months.

Laterally wedged insoles in knee osteoarthritis: do biomechanical effects decline after one month of wear?

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2009
Objective This study aimed to determine whether the effect of laterally wedged insoles on the adduction moment in knee osteoarthritis (OA) declined after one month of wear, and whether higher reported use of insoles was associated with a reduced effect ...

Design Evaluation in Novel Orthoses for Patients with Medial Knee Osteoarthritis [PDF]

Journal of Biomedical Physics and Engineering, 2019
Osteoarthritis of the knee is a debilitating condition affecting increasing numbers of individuals each year. One option for treatment is orthotic knee braces, but a little independent reviews have taken place to date on their relative outcomes for users.

Minimalist Footwear Acutely Alters Running Kinematics in Runners With Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To assess immediate biomechanical changes in runners with medial tibial stress syndrome (MTSS) when transitioning from standard to minimalist running shoes. Methods Active runners diagnosed with MTSS ran on a treadmill at 10 km/h using standard and minimalist running shoes. Hip, knee, and ankle joint kinematics were captured using a 16‐infrared‐

Novel application of gamification to support undergraduate anatomy: Student perceptions and performance

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy is a foundational component of various medical and paramedical disciplines. Existing research has suggested that games or game elements can improve student interest in musculoskeletal (MSK) anatomy. This project builds on previous gamification and serious game work and incorporates new anatomy‐based games into undergraduate anatomy ...

Effects of various static calibration postures on knee mechanics during locomotor tasks using statistical parametric mapping analysis

Scientific Reports
This study aims to examine the effects of various static standing postures on knee biomechanics during dynamic activities, including walking, running, and jumping. Twenty healthy participants (10 males and 10 females; age: 24.7 ± 1.3 years; height: 1.73 ±
