| Abstract |
In this study, we aimed to explore the relationship between radiological findings and functional status in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). In this study, 117 female patients diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis according to the ACR criteria were included. Antero-posterior knee radiographs of the patients were graded according to Kellgren-Lawrence, and functional capacity was evaluated with WOMAC and Lequesne indexes. Quadriceps and hamstring muscle strengths were also concentrically measured using an isokinetic dynamometer, five repetitions at 90°/s and 20 repetitions at 180°/s. In this study, a significant relationship was determined between the age, weight, praying period, and pain period of the patients with the radiological findings. No significant relationship was determined between the functional capacity of knee and muscle strength and the radiological findings. However, left hamstring functioning capacity was found as lower in the group with the radiological findings. The radiological findings in knee OA are not associated with decrease in knee muscle strength and functional capacity. Clinical symptoms such as pain, decrease in range of motion, etc. in knee OA may be responsible for decrease in knee muscle strength and functional capacity. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 05 February 2014.
All research outputs
#14,646,666
of 22,743,667 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Rheumatology
#1,856
of 2,987 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#180,275
of 307,308 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Rheumatology
#47
of 79 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,743,667 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,987 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.9. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 307,308 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 79 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
