The peak external knee adduction moment (pKAM), KAM impulse, and peak knee flexion moment (pKFM) during gait are important loading variables in medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis. We evaluated the effects of gait modification, using real‐time pKAM visual feedback, on pKAM, KAM impulse, and pKFM; and whether participants could maintain the KAM‐reducing gait after feedback removal. Eleven healthy individuals performed a series of walking trials on a split‐belt instrumented treadmill under four conditions of Baseline, Feedback, No Feedback Early, and No Feedback Late. Guided by real‐time feedback of pKAM, they modified their gait patterns to lower pKAM by 20%. Three‐dimensional joint kinematics/kinetics during each walking condition were recorded by a 12‐camera motion capture system and the instrumented treadmill. Change in each knee loading parameter from baseline across conditions was assessed using one‐way repeated‐measures analysis‐of‐variances. In the feedback limb, successful 20% reductions from baseline in pKAM and KAM impulse were achieved across all three conditions. There was a trend for concomitant pKFM increases, partially attenuating the beneficial effects of pKAM reduction. A carry‐over effect of KAM reduction in the non‐feedback limb was noted. The altered gait patterns were participant‐specific and multi‐modal; each participant reported a combination of two to three gait modification strategies used for pKAM reduction. Toe‐in and medial foot contact were the most reported strategies. The findings support the real‐time pKAM visual feedback as a tool for individualized gait modification to reduce knee load. Future studies to evaluate its effectiveness in persons with or at risk for medial knee osteoarthritis is warranted. © 2017 Orthopaedic Research Society. Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Excessive contact force is believed to contribute to the development of medial compartment knee osteoarthritis. The external knee adduction moment (KAM) has been identified as a surrogate measure for medial contact force during gait, with an abnormally large peak value being linked to increased pain and rate of disease progression. This study used in vivo gait data collected from a subject with a force‐measuring knee implant to assess whether KAM decreases accurately predict corresponding decreases in medial contact force. Changes in both quantities generated via gait modification were analyzed statistically relative to the subject's normal gait. The two gait modifications were a “medial thrust” gait involving knee medialization during stance phase and a “walking pole” gait involving use of bilateral walking poles. Reductions in the first (largest) peak of the KAM (32–33%) did not correspond to reductions in the first peak of the medial contact force. In contrast, reductions in the second peak and angular impulse of the KAM (15–47%) corresponded to reductions in the second peak and impulse of the medial contact force (12–42%). Calculated reductions in both KAM peaks were highly sensitive to rotation of the shank reference frame about the superior–inferior axis of the shank. Both peaks of medial contact force were best predicted by a combination of peak values of the external KAM and peak absolute values of the external knee flexion moment (R2 = 0.93). Future studies that evaluate the effectiveness of gait modifications for offloading the medial compartment of the knee should consider the combined effect of these two knee moments.

This study examined the influence of a 6‐week gait retraining program on the knee adduction moment (KAM) and knee pain and function. Ten subjects with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis and self‐reported knee pain participated in weekly gait retraining sessions over 6 weeks. Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores and a 10‐point visual‐analog pain scale score were measured at baseline, post‐training (end of 6 weeks), and 1 month after training ended. Gait retraining reduced the first peak KAM by 20% (p < 0.01) post‐training as a result of a 7° decrease in foot progression angle (i.e., increased internal foot rotation), compared to baseline (p < 0.01). WOMAC pain and function scores were improved at post‐training by 29% and 32%, respectively (p < 0.05) and visual‐analog pain scale scores improved by two points (p < 0.05). Changes in WOMAC pain and function were approximately 75% larger than the expected placebo effect (p < 0.05). Changes in KAM, foot progression angle, WOMAC pain and function, and visual‐analog pain score were retained 1 month after the end of the 6‐week training period (p < 0.05). These results show that a 6‐week gait retraining program can reduce the KAM and improve symptoms for individuals with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis and knee pain. © 2013 Orthopaedic Research Society Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Objective
To evaluate the effect of varying body weight support (BWS) with contralateral cane use on medial knee load, measured by external knee adduction moment (KAM), in medial knee osteoarthritis (OA) participants. Influences of cane use technique, pain and malalignment on the cane’s load-reducing effects were investigated.Method
Participants (n = 23) underwent three-dimensional gait analysis to measure KAM peaks (early and late stance) and impulse. Unaided walking was firstly analyzed. Following cane use training, participants placed pre-determined magnitudes of BWS through the cane (10%, 15% and 20% in random order), with visual feedback provided via a force-instrumented cane and projection screen. Contributions of cane use technique (peak BWS magnitude and timing, cane impulse (BWS∗time) anterior and lateral cane distance from limb) and Western Ontario McMaster Universities OA Index (WOMAC) pain and malalignment to KAM outcomes were evaluated using linear mixed models.Results
Cane use reduced all KAM variables, with a dose–response effect apparent. Cane BWS impulse was important in reducing the early stance peak KAM (P < 0.001), peak BWS for late stance KAM (P < 0.001) and both BWS measures for KAM impulse reductions (P < 0.001). Variables contributing to efficacy of load-reduction differed across outcomes. Generally, greater reductions were achieved with longer lateral cane distances, peak BWS timing similar to KAM peaks, and shorter anterior cane distances. Greater pain and varus alignment improved load-reduction for some outcomes.Conclusion
Contralateral cane use significantly reduced medial knee load, with a dose–response effect. Medial knee OA patients should be encouraged to maintain greater BWS across stance, with cane placement more lateral for optimum benefit. 相似文献7.

BackgroundThe knee adduction moment (KAM) is considered an index for estimating the knee mechanical load, and increased KAM peak and KAM impulse are related to increased medial knee load and progression of knee joint degeneration. We aimed to verify the biomechanical factors of gait related to medial knee loading in patients 6 months after TKA.MethodsThirty-nine women who underwent TKA were enrolled. A three-dimensional gait analysis was performed 6 months postoperatively to generate data on the lower limb joint angle, moment, and power at the backward component (braking phase) and forward component (propulsion phase) peaks of the ground reaction force. Medial knee loading was evaluated using the time-integrated value of KAM during the stance period (KAM impulse). The higher the value of the KAM impulse, the higher the medial knee joint load. The relationships between the KAM impulse and the data for biomechanical factors were evaluated using partial correlation analysis with gait speed as a control factor.ResultsIn the braking phase, the KAM impulse positively correlated with the knee adduction angle (r = 0.377) and negatively correlated with the toe-out angle (r = −0.355). The KAM impulse positively correlated with the knee adduction angle (r = 0.402), the hip flexion moment (r = 0.335), and the hip adduction moment (r = 0.565) and negatively correlated with the toe-out angle (r = −0.357) in the propulsive phase.ConclusionThe KAM impulse 6 months after TKA was related to the knee adduction angle, hip flexion moment, hip adduction moment, and toe-out angle. These findings may provide fundamental data for controlling variable medial knee joint load after TKA and implementing patient management strategies to ensure implant durability. 相似文献

Osteoarthritis (OA) is prevalent after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, but mechanismsunderlying its development are poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to determine if gait biomechanics and daily physical activity (PA) associate with cartilage T2 relaxation times, a marker of collagen organization and water content, 1 month after ACL injury. Twenty-seven participants (15–35 years old) without chondral lesions completed magnetic resonance imaging, three-dimensional gait analysis, and 1 week of PA accelerometry. Interlimb differences and ratios were calculated for gait biomechanics and T2 relaxation times, respectively. Multiple linear regression models adjusted for age, sex, and concomitant meniscus injury were used to determine the association between gait biomechanics and PA with T2 relaxation times, respectively. Altered knee adduction moment (KAM) impulse, less knee flexion excursion (kEXC) and higher daily step counts accounted for 35.8%–65.8% of T2 relaxation time variation in the weightbearing and posterior cartilage of the medial and lateral compartment (all p ≤ .011). KAM impulse was the strongest factor for T2 relaxation times in all models (all p ≤ .001). Lower KAM impulse associated with longer T2 relaxation times in the injured medial compartment (β = ?.720 to ?.901) and shorter T2 relaxation in the lateral compartment (β = .713 to .956). At 1 month after ACL injury, altered KAM impulse, less kEXC, and higher PA associated with longer T2 relaxation times, which may indicate poorer cartilage health. Statement of Clinical Significance: Gait biomechanics and daily PA are modifiable targets that may improve cartilage health acutely after ACL injury and slow progression to OA. 相似文献

This study compared immediate changes in knee and ankle/subtalar biomechanics with lateral wedge orthotics with and without custom arch support in people with knee osteoarthritis and flat feet. Twenty‐six participants with radiographic evidence of medial knee osteoarthritis (22 females; age 64.0 years [SD 8.0 years], BMI 27.2 kg/m2 [4.2]) and flat feet (median foot posture index = + 5) underwent three‐dimensional gait analysis for three conditions: Control (no orthotic), lateral wedge, and lateral wedge plus arch support. Condition order was randomized. Outcomes included frontal plane knee and ankle/subtalar biomechanics, and comfort. Compared to the control, lateral wedge and lateral wedge with arch support reduced the knee adduction moment impulse by 8% and 6%, respectively (p < 0.05). However, the lateral wedge resulted in a more everted foot position (4.3 degrees) than lateral wedge plus arch support (3.2 degrees) (p < 0.05). In contrast, lateral wedge plus arch support reduced foot frontal plane excursion compared to other conditions (p < 0.05). Participants self‐reported significantly more immediate comfort with lateral wedge plus arch support compared to the control, whereas there was no difference in self‐reported comfort between lateral wedge and control. No immediate changes in knee pain were observed in any condition. Clinical significance: Rather than prescribing lateral wedges to all patients with knee osteoarthritis, those who have medial knee osteoarthritis and flat feet may prefer to use the combined orthotic to reduce loads across the knee, and to minimize the risk of foot and ankle symptoms as a consequence of orthotic treatment. © 2016 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Patients who have high body mass indices can have disabling medial compartment knee osteoarthritis, which might benefit from unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). The purpose of this study was to compare clinical and radiographic outcomes of UKAs in patients with body mass indices (BMIs) greater and less than 35 kg/m2. Thirty-four patients (40 knees) had BMIs of 35 kg/m2 or greater, whereas the remaining 33 patients (40 knees) had BMIs below 35 kg/m2, with 2-year minimum follow-up. In the high-BMI group, 5 knees were revised to total knee arthroplasty, compared with none in the lower BMI group. Knee Society scores were lower in the surviving high-BMI knees. All surviving components were radiographically stable. The results suggest that UKA should be approached with caution in patients who have high BMIs. 相似文献

The knee adduction moment (KAM) provides a major contribution to the elevated load in the medial compartment of the knee. An abnormally high KAM has been linked with the progression of knee osteoarthritis (OA). Footwear‐generated biomechanical manipulations reduce the magnitude of this moment by conveying a more laterally shifted trajectory of the foot's center of pressure (COP), reducing the distance between the ground reaction force and the center of the knee joint, thus lowering the magnitude of the torque. We sought to examine the outcome of a COP shift in a cohort of female patients suffering from medial knee OA. Twenty‐two female patients suffering from medial compartment knee OA underwent successive gait analysis testing and direct pedobarographic examination of the COP trajectory with a foot‐worn biomechanical device allowing controlled manipulation of the COP. Modulation of the COP coronal trajectory from medial to lateral offset resulted in a significant reduction of the KAM. This trend was demonstrated in subjects with mild‐to‐moderate OA and in patients suffering from severe stages of the disease. Our results indicate that controlled manipulation of knee coronal kinetics in individuals suffering from medial knee OA can be facilitated by customized COP modification. © 2011 Orthopaedic Research Society Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Reducing the knee adduction moment (KAM) is a promising treatment for medial compartment knee osteoarthritis (OA). Although several gait modifications to lower the KAM have been identified, the potential to combine modifications and individual dose‐responses remain unknown. This study hypothesized that: (i) there is a general scheme consisting of modifications in trunk sway, step width, walking speed, and foot progression angle that reduces the KAM; (ii) gait modifications can be combined; and (iii) dose‐responses differ among individuals. Walking trials with simultaneous modifications in step width, walking speed, progression angle, and trunk sway were analyzed for 10 healthy subjects. Wider step width, slower speed, toeing‐in, and increased trunk sway resulted in reduced first KAM peak, whereas wider step width, faster speed, and increased trunk sway reduced the KAM angular impulse. Individual regressions accurately modeled the amplitude of the KAM variables relative to the amplitude of the gait modification variables, while the dose‐responses varied strongly among participants. In conclusion, increasing trunk sway, increasing step width, and toeing‐in are three gait modifications that could be combined to reduce KAM variables related to knee OA. Results also indicated that some gait modifications reducing the KAM induced changes in the knee flexion moment possibly indicative of an increase in knee loading. Taken together with the different dose‐responses among subjects, this study suggested that gait retraining programs should consider this general scheme of modifications with individualization of the modification amplitudes. © 2016 Orthopaedic Research Society.

This study investigated associations between changes in the total joint moment (TJM) at the knee and changes in cartilage thickness after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Seventeen subjects (five males; age: 29.6 ± 7.3 years) with unilateral ACLR underwent gait analysis and magnetic resonance imaging at baseline (2.2 ± 0.3 years post‐ACLR) and at long‐term follow‐up (7.7 ± 0.7 years post‐ACLR). Knee loading was assessed using the TJM, and differences in loading were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance. Pearson correlation coefficients assessed associations between changes in TJM and changes in (medial‐to‐lateral) M/L femoral cartilage thickness ratios in the ACLR limb. Bilaterally, there was no significant change in the magnitude of the TJM first peak (TJM1), however, there was a significant increase in the percent contribution of the knee flexion moment (KFM) (p < 0.001) and decrease in the percent contribution of the knee adduction moment (KAM) to TJM1 (p < 0.001). The change in the percent contributions of KFM and KAM to TJM1 were associated with changes in M/L femoral cartilage thickness in the ACLR limb. Specifically, subjects with smaller increases in KFM contribution (R = 0.521, p = 0.032) and smaller decreases in KAM contribution (R = ?0.521, p = 0.032) had a reduction in the M/L ratio in the central femoral subregion over the follow‐up period, with similar trends in the external femoral subregion. The study results provide new insight into changes in the loading environment at the knee joint prospectively following ACL reconstruction and give evidence that there are modifiable gait metrics that are associated with cartilage changes after ACLR. © 2019 Orthopaedic Research Society.

OBJECTIVE: To use high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to determine the relationship between articular cartilage degeneration and trabecular bone changes of the femur, condyles and tibia in human knees with osteoarthritis (OA).METHODS: Subjects were divided into three groups: without OA (OA0), mild OA (OA1) and severe OA (OA2). Sagittal images of the knee (0.234 x 0.234mm2, 2-mm slice thickness) were obtained at 1.5T and used for calculating the volume and thickness of the femoral and tibial cartilage. Axial images (0.195 x 0.195mm2, 1-mm slice thickness) were used for calculating the trabecular bone structure parameters: apparent bone volume fraction, trabecular number, trabecular separation and trabecular thickness.RESULTS: Cartilage volume and thickness were less in patients with OA compared to normal controls (P<0.1). Articular cartilage thinning is associated with bone structure loss in the opposite femoral condyle (P<0.05). In varus OA, there were extensive correlations between medial tibia and medial femoral cartilage degeneration, and loss of bone structure in the lateral tibia and lateral condyle. Additional correlations existed between the compartmental differences (lateral minus medial) of cartilage thickness and bone structure.CONCLUSION: Degradation of articular cartilage within a compartment correlates with a loss of bone structure in the opposite compartment. The correlation between the (L-M) differences corroborates this relationship. Malalignment of the knee due to cartilage degeneration is associated with bone formation in the diseased condyle and bone resorption in the opposite compartment. 相似文献

Although knee malalignment is a risk factor for the progression of unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis (OA), it is unclear how this relationship is mediated. Cartilage defects are known to predate cartilage loss and the onset of knee OA, and it may be that knee malalignment increases the risk of unicompartmental knee cartilage defects. Knee radiographs and MRI were performed on a total of 202 subjects, 36.6% of whom had radiographic knee OA, to determine the relationship between static knee alignment and knee cartilage defects. Analyses were performed for the entire cohort, as well as for healthy and OA subgroups. For every 1° increase in a valgus direction, there was an associated reduced risk of the presence of cartilage defects in the medial compartment of subjects with knee OA (p = 0.02), healthy subjects (p = 0.002), and the combined (p < 0.001) group. Moreover, for every 1° increase in a valgus direction, there was an associated increased risk of the presence of lateral cartilage defects in the OA group (p = 0.006), although the relationship between change toward genu valgum and lateral compartment cartilage defects did not persist for the healthy group (p = 0.16). This cross‐sectional study has demonstrated that knee alignment is associated with the risk for compartment specific knee cartilage defects in both healthy and arthritic people. Given that the natural history of cartilage volume reduction appears to be predated by the presence of cartilage defects, whether knee alignment affects the longitudinal progression from cartilage defects to cartilage loss requires further examination. © 2007 Orthopaedic Research Society.
