TL;DR: The large negative power values observed at the knee joint during the landing phase of the single‐leg hop, during which the quadriceps muscle activates eccentrically, indicate that not only hop distance but also the ability to perform successful landings should be investigated when assessing dynamic knee function.

TL;DR: The motions and moments in the hip and knee in female patients on the waiting list for knee prosthesis surgery with medial or lateral osteoarthritis were compared with a control group and an association between presence of lateral OA of the knee and the biomechanics of the hip joint was found.

TL;DR: Eight weeks of muscle strength training can increase muscle strength and improve gait function and values for muscle strength below normal were identified in all children; this was most pronounced at the ankle, followed by the hip muscles.

TL;DR: A validation of the relative motions of skin-mounted markers on the foot was evaluated by the use of 2-D roentgen photogrammetry and the markers with the largest movements were those over the medial malleolus, the navicular bone and the calcaneus.

TL;DR: It is confirmed that patients treated with osseointegrated trans-femoral prosthesis encounter significant changes of their kinematic pattern in terms of hip extension and anterior pelvic tilt, and may, in the long-term have a positive influence on low-back biomechanics and could contribute to reducing the risk of further problems with low back pain.
