Knee pain is associated with lower muscle strength, and both contribute to disability. Peripheral and central neurological mechanisms contribute to OA pain. Understanding the relative contributions of pain mechanisms to muscle strength might help fut...

Habib, M., Smith, S., Chaplin, W., Millar, B., McWilliams, D., & Walsh, D. Central pain mechanisms predict physical inactivity at 1-year in individuals with knee pain. Presented at Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI), Berlin

Purpose: Pain is the primary clinical manifestation in individuals with osteoarthritis (OA). It is an unpleasant and distressing experience, particularly during weight-bearing activities, inhibiting activity, and reducing quality of life. Two groups...
