Comparison of the asymmetries in muscle mass, biomechanical property and muscle activation asymmetry of quadriceps femoris between patients with unilateral and bilateral knee osteoarthritis

Comparison of the asymmetries in muscle mass, biomechanical property and muscle activation asymmetry of quadriceps femoris between patients with unilateral and bilateral knee osteoarthritis

Background: More and more attention has been paid to the research of muscle mass and muscle quality of quadriceps femoris (QF) in knee osteoarthritis (KOA). This study aimed to explore the asymmetric changes of muscle mass, biomechanical property and muscle activation in the inter-limbs QF of KOA pa...
