    To determine test–retest reliability of a surface electromyographic protocol designed to measure knee joint muscle activation during walking in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Twenty-one individuals with moderate ...

  • Hip abductor function in individuals with medial knee osteoarthritis: Implications for medial compartment loading during gait 

    Rutherford, D. J., Hubley-Kozey, C., & Stanish, W. (2014). Hip abductor function in individuals with medial knee osteoarthritis: Implications for medial compartment loading during gait. Clinical Biomechanics, 29(5), 545-550.
    Background Hip abductor muscles generate moments of force that control lower extremity frontal plane motion. Strengthening these muscles has been a recent trend in therapeutic intervention studies for knee osteoarthritis. ...

  • Neuromuscular alterations exist with knee osteoarthritis presence and severity despite walking velocity similarities 

    Rutherford, D. J., Hubley-Kozey, C. L., Stanish, W. D., & Dunbar, M. J. (2011). Neuromuscular alterations exist with knee osteoarthritis presence and severity despite walking velocity similarities. Clinical Biomechanics, 26(4), 377-383.
    Background Neuromuscular strategies during walking in individuals with knee osteoarthritis are being explored for diagnostic information; however, isolating differences to disease progression is difficult given walking ...

  • Maximal voluntary isometric contraction exercises: A methodological investigation in moderate knee osteoarthritis 

    Rutherford, D. J., Hubley-Kozey, C. L., & Stanish, W. D. (2011). Maximal voluntary isometric contraction exercises: a methodological investigation in moderate knee osteoarthritis. Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology, 21(1), 154-160.
    Purpose: The objectives were, (i) to determine whether differences exist in relative activation amplitudes for participants with asymptomatic knees and participants with moderate medial compartment knee osteoarthritis ...

  • Explaining the hip adduction moment variability during gait: Implications for hip abductor strengthening 

    Rutherford, D. J., & Hubley-Kozey, C. (2009). Explaining the hip adduction moment variability during gait: Implications for hip abductor strengthening. Clinical Biomechanics, 24(3), 267-273.
    Background There is emerging interest in hip abductor function during gait and its potential relationship to knee joint pathology. During gait, the hip abductor muscles are primarily responsible for generating moments of ...

  • Sit-to-stand transfer mechanics in healthy older adults: A comprehensive investigation of a portable lifting seat device. 

    Published version: Rutherford, D. J., Hurley, S. T., & Hubley-Kozey, C. (2016). Sit-to-stand transfer mechanics in healthy older adults: a comprehensive investigation of a portable lifting-seat device. Disability and Rehabilitation: Assistive Technology, 11(2), 158-165.
    Purpose: To evaluate lower extremity mechanics and muscle activation associated with the sit-to-stand transfer using a portable lifting-seat device and to compare these data to an unassisted transfer in healthy young and ...

  • Reliability of Principal Components and Discrete Parameters of Knee Angle and Moment Gait Waveforms in Individuals with Moderate Knee Osteoarthritis 

    Robbins, S. M., Wilson, J. L. A., Rutherford, D. J., & Hubley-Kozey, C. L. (2013). Reliability of principal components and discrete parameters of knee angle and moment gait waveforms in individuals with moderate knee osteoarthritis. Gait & posture, 38(3), 421-427.
    Gait measures are used to evaluate change in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA), but reliability has not been fully established in this population. This study examined test-retest reliability of knee angle and moment ...
