Differences in gait parameters between healthy subjects and persons with moderate and severe knee osteoarthritis: a result of altered walking speed?
JA Zeni Jr, JS Higginson - Clinical biomechanics, 2009 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: While knee osteoarthritis has been shown to affect a multitude of kinematic,

Increased duration of co-contraction of medial knee muscles is associated with greater progression of knee osteoarthritis
PW Hodges, W van den Hoorn, TV Wrigley, RS Hinman… - Manual Therapy, 2016 - Elsevier
Background As knee osteoarthritis (OA) cannot be cured, treatments that slow structural
disease progression are a priority. Knee muscle activation has a potential role in OA …

Dynamic knee joint stiffness in subjects with a progressive increase in severity of knee osteoarthritis
JA Zeni Jr, JS Higginson - Clinical biomechanics, 2009 - Elsevier

Knee osteoarthritis alters peri-articular knee muscle strategies during gait
The primary role of muscles is to move, and control joints. It is therefore important to
understand how degenerative joint disease changes this role with the resulting effect on …
