Brief Summary

There is no study to explore the prediction of knee diseases using kinematic parameters of knee during gait. The aim of this study is to explore the possibility of predicting knee diseases by gait parameters.

Conditions

Knee Injuries; Knee Arthritis

Study Design

• Observational Model Type: CASE_CONTROL
• Study Time Perspective: RETROSPECTIVE

Study Groups

Normal

This group is control group. Participants in this group do not have knee diseases or any other bad injuries in lower limbs.

Observational gait analysis procedure

Intervention Type: PROCEDURE

All the participants underwent a standard observational procedure: i) diagnosed with knee injuries/arthritis; ii) For KOA, take radiographic examination (x-ray) and take gait analysis on a treadmill in barefoot; iii) For knee injuries, take gait analysis before surgery, the disease of patients was confirmed by surgery (knee arthroscopy); iv)Normal people take an physical examination to avoid other disease;

KOA

Participants in this group have knee osteoarthritis and have no other bad injuries in lower limbs.

Observational gait analysis procedure

Intervention Type: PROCEDURE

ACLD

Participants in this group have anterior cruciate ligament deficiency with or without meniscus deficiency and have no other bad injuries in lower limbs.

Plica

Participants in this group have plica syndrome and have no other bad injuries in lower limbs.

Observational gait analysis procedure

Intervention Type: PROCEDURE

All the participants underwent a standard observational procedure: i) diagnosed with knee injuries/arthritis; ii) For KOA, take radiographic examination (x-ray) and take gait analysis on a treadmill in barefoot; iii) For knee injuries, take gait analysis before surgery, the disease of patients was confirmed by surgery (knee arthroscopy); iv)Normal people take an physical examination to avoid other disease;
