High tibiofemoral contact and muscle forces during gait are associated with radiographic knee OA progression over 3 years. | LitMetric

Background: The objective of this study was to investigate differences in tibiofemoral joint contact forces between individuals with moderate medial OA who exhibit radiographic knee OA progression within 3 years versus those who do not, and to understand the relationship between model-predicted contact forces and net external moments for this population.

Methods: 27 individuals with moderate medial compartment knee OA underwent baseline instrumented gait analysis. OA progressors were defined as those who experienced at least a one grade increase in medial joint space narrowing at three years. An electromyography-driven musculoskeletal model was used to estimate muscle and tibiofemoral contact forces at baseline, which were compared between progressors and non-progressors using t-tests.

Results: Seven individuals experienced radiographic OA progression by 3 years. Progressors walked with significantly higher peaks of medial and total tibiofemoral contact forces, and higher impulse of medial contact forces. Significant and high correlations were found between: first peaks of medial and total contact forces with first peak of the knee adduction moment (R = 0.74; R = 0.59); second peaks of medial and total knee contact forces with second peaks of knee adduction and flexion moments (R = 0.71; R = 0.68); medial knee contact force impulse with knee adduction moment impulse (R = 0.76).

Conclusions: Higher tibiofemoral joint contact forces during walking were associated with three-year radiographic knee OA progression based on medial joint space narrowing. These results support the need for strategies that reduce compressive knee contact forces through the reduction of adduction and flexion moments during walking.
