TL;DR: It is indicated that unilateral and bilateral PT represent distinct entities, and that thigh strength appears particularly important in PT as it predicted both symptoms and function in PT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cicuttini,Rachelle Buchbinder,Andrew Forbes,Anthony Harris,Shirley P. Yu,David Connell,James M. Linklater,Bing Hui Wang,Bing Hui Wang,Win Min Oo,Win Min Oo,David J. Hunter +19 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the effects of intra-articular platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections on symptoms and joint structure in patients with symptomatic mild to moderate radiographic medial knee OA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic knee loading is related to cartilage defects and tibial plateau bone area in medial knee osteoarthritis.
Mark W. Creaby,Mark W. Creaby,Yuanyuan Wang,Kim L Bennell,Rana S Hinman,Ben R Metcalf,Kelly-Ann Bowles,Flavia M. Cicuttini +7 more
TL;DR: Peak KAM and KAM impulse are associated with cartilage defects and subchondral bone area in patients with medial knee OA, suggesting that increased mechanical loading may play a role in the pathological changes in articular cartilage andSubchondrals bone that occur with medial knees OA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reducing joint loading in medial knee osteoarthritis: Shoes and canes
TL;DR: Wearing shoes increases medial knee joint load compared with walking barefoot and the use of a cane significantly reduces medial knee loading and has the potential to reduce the risk of disease progression in knee OA.
Journal ArticleDOI
