AB  - Malalignment of the lower limbs is the main biomechanical factor for knee 
      osteoarthritis (KOA). The static hip-knee-ankle angle (S-HKAA) measured from 
      radiograph is regarded as the "gold standard" of the malalignment. However, many 
      evidences showed that the S-HKAA has no significant correlation with the knee 
      dynamic-load distribution, unlike the dynamic HKAA (D-HKAA). The purpose of this 
      study was to quantitatively analyze the D-HKAA and investigate the relationship 
      between D-HKAA and S-HKAA for both KOA and healthy participants. In this paper, 
      twenty-five healthy subjects and twenty-five medial compartment KOA (M-KOA) 
      patients were recruited. Three-dimensional motion analysis and standing 
      lower-limbs-full-length radiograph were utilized to obtain the D-HKAA and S-HKAA, 
      respectively. The results showed that the mean D-HKAA was more varus than the 
      S-HKAA (p < 0.05). For the mean D-HKAA, larger varus angle was observed in swing 
      phase than stance phase (p < 0.05). Compared with healthy subjects, the M-KOA 
      patients had remarkably smaller S-HKAA and D-HKAA during gait cycle (p < 0.01). 
      For the relationship between the S-HKAA and mean D-HKAA, no significant 
      correlation was found for both healthy subjects and M-KOA patients (r < 0.357, n 
      = 25, p > 0.05, Spearman correlation analysis). In conclusion, the S-HKAA was 
      limited to predict the D-HKAA for both M-KOA patients and healthy subjects. The 
      D-HKAA should be given more attention to the orthopedist and the designer of knee 
      brace and orthotics.
