HKA-Net: clinically-adapted deep learning for automated measurement of hip-knee-ankle angle on lower limb radiography for knee osteoarthritis assessment.

Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research
BACKGROUND: Accurate measurement of the hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle is essential for informed clinical decision-making in the management of knee osteoarthritis (OA). Knee OA is commonly associated with varus deformity, where the alignment of the knee ...

Machine learning for classifying chronic ankle instability based on ankle strength, range of motion, postural control and anatomical deformities in delivery service workers with a history of lateral ankle sprains.

Musculoskeletal science & practice
OBJECTIVE: Chronic ankle instability (CAI) frequently develops as a result of lateral ankle sprains (LAS) in delivery service workers (DSWs). Identifying risk factors for CAI is crucial for implementing targeted interventions. This study aimed to dev...
