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 ...
Total arthroplasty in ankylosed knees: a case series
(Faculdade de Medicina / USP, 2009)
OBJECTIVE: To present nine patients with ankylosis in their knees that were submitted to a total arthroplasty to lessen their pain and improve their functional limitation. For these patients, arthrodesis remained a possibility ...
Knee and Hip Isometric Force Steadiness Are Impaired in Women With Patellofemoral Pain
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2021-10-01)
Ferreira, AS, de Oliveira Silva, D, Ferrari, D, Magalhaes, FH, Pappas, E, Briani, RV, Pazzinatto, MF, and de Azevedo, FM. Knee and hip isometric force steadiness are impaired in women with patellofemoral pain. J Strength ...
Effects of motor learning on clinical isokinetic test performance in knee osteoarthritis patients
(2017-04-01)
OBJECTIVES: To analyze the effects of motor learning on knee extension-flexion isokinetic performance in knee osteoarthritis patients. METHODS: One hundred and thirty-six middle-aged and older sedentary individuals (111 ...
Electromyographic behaviour of the gastrocnemius muscle during knee extension and flexion performed on the leg press
(1999-09-01)
The gastrocnemius was analysed in 10 male volunteers during knee flexion and extension with the foot in normal, plantar flexion and dorsal flexion positions. Hewlett-Packard surface electrodes, an electromyographic signal ...

Relationship between vastus medialis Hoffmann reflex excitability and knee extension biomechanics during different tasks in women with patellofemoral pain
(2022-01-01)
Background: Impaired knee extension biomechanics and spinal excitability have been reported in women with patellofemoral pain, but their relationship has not been explored. A significant relationship between them could ...
Kinesiophobia, but not strength is associated with altered movement in women with patellofemoral pain
(2019-02-01)
Background: Evidence indicates the presence of both kinesiophobia and knee extension strength deficits in women with patellofemoral pain (PFP). Both impairments may contribute to apparent compensatory gait patterns including ...
ISOKINETIC EVALUATION OF PATIENTS SUBMITTED TO TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY
(ATHA COMUNICACAO & EDITORA, 2009)
Objective: In total knee arthroplasty, the minimally-invasive approach has been claimed to enable earlier rehabilitation because it spares the femoral quadriceps muscle. To check the influence of preserving the extensor ...
Discriminatory Ability of Lower-Extremity Peak Torque and Rate of Torque Development in the Identification of Older Women With Slow Gait Speed
(Human Kinetics Publ Inc, 2018-08-01)
The aim was to compare torque and rate of torque development of lower limb muscles between older women with functional and slow gait speeds to determine which muscle group is the best predictor of functional gait speed, ...
