简要总结
Joint mobilization and resistance exercise training are effective conservative treatment options for the management of osteoarthritis. However, currently no study has highlighted the supplementary effects of resistance training in addition to joint mobilization in people suffering from knee osteoarthritis. The current study is aimed at bridging the gap in literature and providing evidence regarding the additive impact of resistance training to joint mobilization in knee osteoarthritis.

结局指标
主要结局
Gait velocity
时间窗: 4 weeks
Gait analysis will be done to analyze gaot velocity. A greater gait velocity signifies positive outcome and prognosis.
Walking related performance fatigability
时间窗: 4 weeks
Walking related performance fatigability will be measured using 6 minute walk test. Greater fatigability indicates poorer outcome.
Stride Length
时间窗: 4 weeks
Gait analysis will be done to analyze stride length. A greater stride length signifies positive outcome and prognosis.
Knee Pain
时间窗: 4 weeks
Knee Pain will be measured using visual analogue scale (VAS) from 0-100mm. A higher score on VAS indicated greater pain.
Knee range of motion
时间窗: 4 weeks
Knee range of motion will be measured using a goniometer. A higher ROM signifies positive outcome.
Isometric Muscle Strength
时间窗: 4 weeks
Isometric Muscle Strength will be quantified using dynamometer. A higher score on dynamometer signifies greater muscle strength and good prognosis.
Functional Disability
时间窗: 4 weeks
Knee functional disability will be assessed using Knee Osteoarthritis and Outcome Score (KOOS) with a score ranging from 0-100. A lower score on KOOS signifies greater functional disability.
Functional capacity
时间窗: 4 weeks
5 repetition sit to stand test will be used to determine knee related functional capacity, which will be quantified in terms of time. A smaller time will denote greater functional capacity.
