Subjects diagnosed with bilateral knee OA (grade II or greater on the Kellgren–Lawrence grading scale) and experiencing pain in both knees (numeric pain rating scale [NPRS] score ≥ 1) were selected through purposive sampling (n = 70). Data collection involved the NPRS, modified belt stabilizer hand-held dynamometer, active knee extension test, and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) Urdu version questionnaire. Measurements from both knees assessed quadriceps muscle strength, hamstring length, and physical limitations.\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000The median interquartile range (IQR) of quadricep strength for the more painful knee was 0.53 (0.36) Nm/kg and 1.35 (0.34) Nm/kg for the less painful knee showing a significant difference in quadriceps strength (P < 0.01). In terms of hamstring length, the more painful knee had a median (IQR) of 29.0 (2.0) degrees whereas the less painful knee recorded 11.0 (6.0) degrees indicating a significant difference (P < 0.01). Likewise, there was a significant difference in WOMAC scores between the less painful and more painful knees (P < 0.01).\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000This study found that individuals experiencing more knee pain demonstrated decreased quadriceps muscle strength and increased hamstring muscle tightness.

The study was conducted at University Medical Centre, Lahore. According to eligibility criteria, 28 participants were randomly allocated to the experimental and control groups through the lottery method. While the control group received only relaxation exercises, the experimental group received SSP exercises along with the relaxation exercises on the cervicoscapular region. Three sessions of 45 min each, three times/week, on alternating days for three weeks were given. The outcome measures for pain, ROM, and disability were the numeric pain rating scale (NPRS), goniometer, and neck disability index (NDI), respectively. These were assessed before the intervention and at the end of the third week.\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000The mean age of Groups A and B was 24.76 ± 4.53 and 27.76 ± 4.62, respectively. Within-group analysis of NPRS, NDI, and cervical flexion and extension ROM showed significant improvement in both groups. Between-group analysis showed post-treatment NPRS (P = 0.000), NDI (P = 0.000), cervical flexion (P = 0.004), and extension (P = 0.000). A significant improvement (P < 0.05) in pain, disability, and flexion and extension was observed in the experimental group.\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000Both groups showed improved outcomes, but a significant difference was found in the control and experiment groups.
