Exercise for knee osteoarthritis

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2000
Adverse outcomes in knee osteoarthritis include pain, loss of function, and disability. These outcomes can have devastating effects on the quality of life of those suffering from the disease. Treatments have generally targeted pain, assuming that disability would improve as a direct result of improvements in pain.

Pneumatic Osteoarthritis Knee Brace

Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, 2009
Knee osteoarthritis is a chronic disease that necessitates long term therapeutic intervention. Biomechanical studies have demonstrated an improvement in the external adduction moment with application of a valgus knee brace. Despite being both efficacious and safe, due to their rigid frame and bulkiness, current designs of knee braces create discomfort ...

Obesity and knee osteoarthritis

Inflammopharmacology, 2012
The association between obesity and knee osteoarthritis, and specifically the role of obesity as a risk factor for knee osteoarthritis has been well documented. A systematic review and meta-analysis by Blagojevic et al. in Osteoarthr Cartil 18(1):24-33, (2010) examined 36 papers reporting on BMI and found that all studies demonstrated obesity and being

Imaging of knee osteoarthritis

Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2008
New imaging modalities are broadening the possibilities in osteoarthritis (OA) research, and are offering new insights to help better understand the pathogenesis of this disease. Although knee radiographs are widely employed in epidemiological and clinical studies to assess structural pathology, joint radiographs provide limited outcome measures in ...

Pathomechanics of knee osteoarthritis

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1994
Osteoarthritis of the knee is not only common, but is also responsible for a significant amount of disability in the aging population. Although the exact etiology of this disease process is not known, osteoarthritis has been well described. The primary site affected by osteoarthritis is the articular cartilage.
