NCT ID NCT07168590
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at how the alignment of the knee joint, seen on X-rays, relates to pain, daily function, quality of life, and fear of movement in people with knee osteoarthritis. Researchers will measure alignment and joint space width in 100 adults with knee osteoarthritis and compare these to standard questionnaires. The goal is to find new insights that could help tailor treatments for each patient.
