“…A reduction of the range of motion (ROM) about the dorsi/plantarflexion and adduction/abduction axes at the Shank-Calcaneus joint, particularly during pre-swing was observed in PF OA group compared to CTRL. These findings are in accordance with those from previous studies [8,9,12]. In contrast to the results of Valderrabano et al (2007), no significant reduction in ROM was observed about the inversion/eversion axes.…”

“…Overall, the gait alterations identified were comparable with corresponding results from previous studies. The gait of our post-traumatic patients was characterized by a decreased walking speed, decreased stride length and reduced Shank-Calcaneus kinematics (PF OA group) and kinetics (both pathological groups) in comparison with the group [1,8,12].…”

“…A convenience sample of twenty-nine subjects with end-stage post-traumatic ankle osteoarthritis (Takakura stage 3 to 4 (4 being complete obliteration of the joint space)) and fifteen asymptomatic subjects (CTRL) participated in this study (Table 1). This convenience sample size was based on similar clinical biomechanical research [9,10,12]. All patients suffered from post-traumatic ankle osteoarthritis secondary to ankle-related fracture (PF OA; n=15 subjects; 9 males and 6 females) or to chronic ankle instability (PS OA; n=14 subjects; 9 males and 5 females).…”

“…Even though this proportionalit y scheme was validated, the reported joint moments and power should be regarded as estimates [15]. Although the sample size was based on similar studies [9,10,12], it was not possible to compute a priori statistical power. This was because no minimum detectable change values between post-sprain and post-fracture post-traumatic ankle osteoarthritis have been reported in the literature for Chopart, Lisfranc and MTP1 joints.…”

“…A systematic review 338 has identified a number of physical impairments in individuals with ankle OA (impaired balance, decreased muscle strength and reduced joint motion) that are commonly associated with falls 188,189,270,475;168,191 . Further, individuals with ankle joint symptoms walked with a slower speed [476][477][478][479] and a shorter stride length 149,476,477 compared to controls. In light of these impairments and the evidence of a relation between persistent joint pain and the risk of falling [182][183][184] , individuals with ankle joint pain may be at an increased risk of falling.…”

Understanding the physical and psychological impairments and associated disability characterising individuals with ankle symptoms and osteoarthritis

Musculoskeletal conditions are prevalent worldwide and are associated with pain, disability and impaired quality of life (QoL). Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common, costly and disabling musculoskeletal condition. Lower limb OA research has focussed on the hip and knee and, as a consequence, impairments characterising ankle OA are not well understood.This thesis aims to advance our understanding of the physical, functional and psychological impairments and associated disability in individuals with persistent ankle symptoms and in those with radiographic evidence of ankle OA. Study 1: A systematic literature review and meta-analysis was conducted to synthesise and appraise the quality of studies investigating physical impairments in ankle OA. The review identified eight studies, three of which were included in the meta-analyses. Meta-analyses revealed large impairments of ankle sagittal plane range of motion (ROM) on the affected compared to the unaffected side and less sagittal plane torque in ankle OA compared to controls. Evidence from single studies indicated deficits in frontal plane ROM and strength, talar translation and rotation, balance, electromyography of ankle muscles, abnormal bony alignments and greater fatty infiltrate in all calf muscle compartments in individuals with ankle OA. Critical appraisal of the literature revealed limitations surrounding assessor blinding, measurement validity, and lack of generalization. Study 2: A cross-sectional laboratory study of 96 participants compared physical measures of function, strength, ROM and posture and patient-reported outcomes in 1) individuals with symptoms and radiographic evidence of ankle OA to asymptomatic individuals; and 2) asymptomatic individuals with and without radiographic evidence of ankle OA. Those with symptomatic OA reported greater pain, disability, instability, kinesiophobia, lower function and QoL, and exhibited significant deficits in muscle strength, ROM and ambulatory function compared to asymptomatic individuals. Most patient-reported and physical outcomes were similar between asymptomatic individuals with and without radiographic OA. Stair function times were significantly associated with QoL and self-reported function. ii Study 3: A cross-sectional exploratory survey (n=394) was conducted to compare selfreported daily living and sports function, ankle pain and disability, physical activity, ankle instability, and QoL between individuals with and without persistent ankle pain and stiffness, and to explore factors associated with QoL. Individuals with ankle symptoms reported worse scores for all measures, except self-reported physical activity. Daily living function and age explained 66% of the variance in QoL. Study 4: Individuals with and without persistent ankle pain and stiffness (n= 231) participated in an online survey to obtain data about pain severity, pain self-efficacy, anxiety, depression, kinesiophobia, pain catastrophizing, and function. Individuals with persistent ankle pain reported higher pain and depressive symptoms, an...
