Total knee replacement in patients with osteoarthritis and concomitant inveterate patellar dislocation
(2019)
The inveterate patellar dislocation is an uncommon entity. The most frequent findings correspond to a misaligned valgus associated with lateral patellar dislocation. When severe knee osteoarthritis is present, total knee ...
Knee crepitus is not associated with the occurrence of total knee replacement in knee osteoarthritis – a longitudinal study with data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative
(2019-07-01)
Objective(s): To investigate whether the presence of knee crepitus is associated with the occurrence of total knee replacement (TKR), quality of life and deficits in physical function at long-term. Methods: Setting – This ...

(2018-01-01)
Background: Crepitus is a common clinical feature of knee osteoarthritis. However, the importance of crepitus in the overall clinical presentation of individuals with knee osteoarthritis is unknown. Objective(s): (A) To ...
Effects of progressive resistance strength training on knee biomechanics during single leg step-up in persons with mild knee osteoarthritis
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2011)
Background: The goal of this study was to determine if increasing strength in primary knee extensors and flexors would directly affect net knee joint moments during a common functional task in persons with knee osteoarthritis. ...
