Implication

Repeated-measures analysis reveals altered knee arthrokinematics under load carriage in recruit-aged women, suggesting elevated degenerative joint risk.

Key Points

Carried load significantly alters tibiofemoral arthrokinematics during walking and running, shifting contact locations and increasing internal rotation in recruit-aged women.
Medial compartment contact location shifted 5% more medial at foot strike during walking, and internal rotation increased under heavy carried load at 30% stance.
Assessment using dynamic biplane radiography indicates load carriage alters tibiofemoral arthrokinematics, potentially elevating joint injury risk in active women.
