OA Knee and Biomechanics
Biomechanical factors play an important role in the health of diarthrodial joints. Altered joint biomechanics and loading — associated with obesity, mal-alignment, trauma, or joint instability — are critical risk factor for joint degeneration, that's why biomechanical correction, exercise and weight loss have generally been shown to promote beneficial effects...

Knee Pain biomechanics
The knee is an important load-bearing joint, which is distinct from the other major load-bearing joints in that soft tissues rather than articular shape are the major stabilizing factors.Forces transmitted by the knee joint are of great clinical significance. Obesity, which increases the overall magnitude of loads across the knee,...
