Summary

This study looked at 46 people with meniscus injuries to see if there is a connection between muscle strength differences in the legs and fear of movement (kinesiophobia). Some participants had surgery, while others received non-surgical care. Researchers measured muscle strength and used a questionnaire to assess fear of re-injury, aiming to understand how these factors relate to recovery.
