Re-educating the neural pathway in TKA patients

1. Study 1 :Synergy patterns are different among low and high functional TKA

2. Study 2: Synergy patterns are different among patients with various grade of OA and within the OA group with similar KL grade [Dr Shakoor Study]

3. Study 6:Pilot data collection :Two groups of TKA , with low-functional knees, undergo two different intervention : (1) perturbation training [as it is used for stroke patients], (2) traditional muscle strengthening

4. Study 4: Manipulating the neural commands (synergies) in AnyBody software leads to changes in Knee Hystersis pattern (as a surrogate of stiffness) and Bode margins (as a surrogate of Stability)

5. Study 3: Synergies, calculated through NNMF technique are associated with the vibration threshold in patients with OA grade [Dr Shakoor Study]

6. Study 5: Muscle strengthening do NOT develop synergies in healthy adults [ Laura Study]
