Step‐by‐step insight into gait analysis: A narrative review unlocking knee biomechanics

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Gait analysis offers a powerful tool for clinical and orthopaedic decision‐making. By quantifying spatiotemporal, kinematic and kinetic parameters during walking, it provides a dynamic window into joint function that static imaging cannot capture.

Association between walking gait biomechanical changes after anterior cruciate ligament injury or reconstruction and the development of osteoarthritis: A systematic review

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and reconstruction significantly increase the risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA). Biomechanical alterations during walking are frequently suggested contributors to OA development. This systematic review aims to determine the association between walking gait biomechanical changes following ACL ...

Qihuang Needle Therapy for Motor Symptoms in Parkinson's Disease: A Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) often respond incompletely to medication, highlighting the need for effective adjunctive therapies. Acupuncture may offer benefits, but high‐quality evidence for specialized techniques such as Qihuang needle therapy is lacking.
