Background: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a prevalent degenerative joint disease. The primary pathological manifestations of KOA include articular cartilage degeneration, joint space narrowing, and osteophyte formation, leading to a spectrum of symptoms, including joint pain, stiffness, reduced mobility, diminished muscle strength, and severe disability. We aimed to utilize a meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy of isokinetic muscle strengthening training (IMST) as a rehabilitation treatment for KOA in lowland areas.
