Relation of Foot Pronation to Medial Knee Load in Persons with Medial Knee Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose: The knee adduction moment (KAM) estimates medial knee load during gait, with high KAM fueling worsening OA. Understanding how foot mechanics contribute to KAM…Abstract Number: 291 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Relation of Foot Pronation during Walking to Risk of Worsening Lateral Patellofemoral and Medial Tibiofemoral Cartilage Damage
Background/Purpose: Foot pronation can lead to lateral patellofemoral (PF) maltracking with reduced tibiofemoral (TF) varum, inciting speculation that the highly pronated foot reported in knees…Abstract Number: 304 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Gait Abnormalities Due to Hip Osteoarthritis Are Different in Men and Women
Background/Purpose: Gait mechanics are different in healthy men and women.1 It is unknown whether or not the gait changes associated with hip osteoarthritis (OA), also…Abstract Number: 2345 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Relation of Varus Knee Thrust during Walking to Two-Year Incidence of Frequent Ankle, Hip, and Lower Back Pain
Background/Purpose: Varus knee thrust is an abrupt change in frontal plane alignment of the tibiofemoral joint observed during gait. Thrust has been previously linked to…Abstract Number: 1005 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Association of Baseline Knee Sagittal Dynamic Joint Stiffness during Gait and 2-Year Cartilage Damage Progression in Knee Osteoarthritis (OA)
Background/Purpose: While patellofemoral (PF) OA has been found to have substantial impact on pain and function, most studies continue to focus on tibiofemoral (TF)…Abstract Number: 2390 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Foot Kinematics and Foot Center of Pressure and Their Association with Medial Knee Load Reduction with Use of Flexible Shoes in Knee Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose: Biomechanical treatments for medial knee osteoarthritis (OA) often target the knee adduction moment (KAM). Foot-mediated biomechanical interventions for knee OA may operate through altering…Abstract Number: 215 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
External Hip Adduction Moment and Progression of Medial Tibiofemoral Cartilage Damage and Bone Marrow Lesions in Persons with Knee Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose Gait mechanics at the hip may affect medial joint loading at the knee in persons with knee OA. Greater external hip adduction moment (reflecting…Abstract Number: 1083 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
The Relation of Step Length to MRI Features of Osteoarthritis in the Patellofemoral Joint: The MOST Study
Background/Purpose: Patellofemoral joint (PFJ) osteoarthritis (OA) is a common source of pain and there is little evidence for rehabilitation treatment. Gait retraining treatments are effective…Abstract Number: 211 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Association Between Baseline External Knee Adduction and Flexion Moments during Gait and Medial Tibiofemoral Cartilage Thickness Loss over Two Years in Persons with Knee Osteoarthritis (OA)
Background/Purpose The external knee adduction moment (KAM) during gait has been characterized as a surrogate for dynamic medial knee load and is believed to be…Abstract Number: 2671 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
The Relationship Between Toe-Out Angle During Walking and Risk Of Medial Knee Osteoarthritis Incidence: The Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study
Background/Purpose: A previous study suggests a linear relationship between increased toe-out angle during walking and reduced risk of medial knee OA progression. Yet, gait lab…Abstract Number: 254 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
The Relationship Of Foot Pronation During Walking To Risk Of Incident Medial Tibiofemoral and Lateral Patellofemoral Cartilage Damage: The Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study
Background/Purpose: Studies of older adults suggest an association between plantar pressure measures of foot pronation and medial tibiofemoral (med TF) cartilage damage, while studies of…
