Peak knee joint moments accurately predict medial and lateral knee contact forces in patients with valgus malalignment
Abstract Compressive knee joint contact force during walking is thought to be related to initiation and progression of knee osteoarthritis. However, joint loading is often evaluated with surrogate measures, like the external knee adduction moment, due to the complexity of computing joint contact for...
