Objective To assess the effectiveness of isolated resistance training on arthritis symptoms,
physical performance, and psychological function in people with knee osteoarthritis. Methods …

Objective The purpose of this paper is to review current data and concepts concerning the
effect of immobilization on articular cartilage in animal models. We also evaluate the methods …

Small wireless trunk accelerometers have become a popular approach to unobtrusively
quantify human locomotion and provide insights into both gait rehabilitation and sports …

Running is extremely popular and around 10.6 million people run regularly in the United States
alone. Unfortunately, estimates indicated that between 29% to 79% of runners sustain an …

CONTEXT: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a musculoskeletal disorder primarily affecting the older
population and resulting in chronic pain and disability. Biomechanical variables, associated with …

Objective Alterations in the morphologic, biochemical, and mechanical properties of cartilage
occur after unloading and immobilization in animals. However, the findings have been …

Background The effect of footwear on the gait of children is poorly understood. This systematic
review synthesises the evidence of the biomechanical effects of shoes on children during …

The functional behaviour of articular cartilage in diarthrodial joints is determined by its
morphological and biomechanical properties. Whereas morphological changes are mainly …

Objective A previous cross‐sectional study indicated that the morphology of patellar and
tibial cartilage is subject to change after spinal cord injury (SCI). The aim of this study was to …

BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis is a common musculo-skeletal problem accompanied with
muscle weakness. Muscle weakness may be readily improved by resistance training. Greater …
