The effect of sarcopenic obesity on knee biomechanics in individuals with end-stage knee osteoarthritis
Gait assessment for different walking conditions adds important information to level walking assessments. Individuals with knee OA and SO have less knee range of motion, are slower, and less stride and step length, compared to individuals with OA only. This study may indicate the need for preoperative and postoperative rehabilitation programs to address the needs of individuals with knee OA and SO.
