Harato K, Iwama Y, Kaneda K, Kobayashi S, Niki Y, Nagura T. Pain detect questionnaire and pain catastrophizing scale affect gait pattern in patients with knee osteoarthritis. J Exp Orthop. 2022 Jun 7;9(1):52. doi: 10.1186/s40634-022-00492-w
Dr Hoshino commented that this study clearly demonstrated how subjective pain affected the knee movement. The relationship between pain and movement is fairly understandable but has not been well examined.
The study be Harato et al. might pave the way to further studies about the relationship between subjective assessments and physical movements.
