Purpose: To identify gender differences in (1) the coronal alignment of functional knee phenotypes and (2) the JLCA (joint line convergence angle) in relation to the phenotype classification.

Methods: This study is a retrospective data analysis, including 12,099 osteoarthritic knee computed tomography (5025 male, 7074 female) analysed by Medacta software for hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA), femoral mechanical angle (FMA), tibial mechanical angle (TMA) and JLCA. The data were grouped into genders and combined according to the Functional Knee Phenotypes Classification.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Taras Rudyy"

  • - Taras Rudyy's recent research investigates gender-based differences in the classification of functional knee phenotypes among individuals with osteoarthritis, focusing specifically on coronal alignment and joint line convergence angle (JLCA).
  • - The study analyzed a substantial dataset of 12,099 osteoarthritic knees using advanced imaging techniques, revealing significant differences in knee mechanics between male and female patients.
  • - Findings contribute to a deeper understanding of gender-specific anatomical variations, which could inform more tailored treatment approaches for osteoarthritis management and improve clinical outcomes.
