Beneficial effects of a gait used while wearing a kimono to decrease the knee adduction moment in healthy adults
The knee adduction moment (KAM) relates to medial knee osteoarthritis (OA). Several gait modifications to reduce the KAM for the prevention of knee OA have been studied. Most of the modifications, however, involve voluntary changes in leg alignment. Here we investigated the biomechanical effects for reducing the KAM of a walking style with a small trunk rotation and arm swing gait, which is a n...
متن کاملEffects of backward gait training protocol on knee adduction moment and impulse during walking in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis
Background and Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of backward gait training protocol on knee adduction moment and impulse in male patients with medial knee osteoarthritis. Materials and Methods: This quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design included two control groups (healthy and patient) and an experimental group (subjects with medial knee osteoarthritis)...
متن کاملA Gait Modification to Reduce the External Adduction Moment at the Knee: a Case Study
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, and affects approximately one-third of the elderly population. The medial tibiofemoral compartment is most commonly involved. This is due, in part, to the ground reaction force vector passing medial to the knee joint center during gait. This distance increases with genu varus malalignment, resulting in an increased external adductio...
متن کاملfrom linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar
chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
15 صفحه اولReduction in knee adduction moment via non-invasive biomechanical training: a longitudinal gait analysis study.
Biomechanical non-invasive interventions have been previously reported to reduce pain and facilitate superior levels of function in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis [OA]. One such treatment is the AposTherapy, a customized program utilizing a foot-worn biomechanical device allowing center of pressure modification and continuous perturbation during gait. The influence of this interventio...
