Summary

This RCT evaluates whether WATERinMOTION aquatic therapy improves pain, function, and quality of life more effectively than land-based exercise in obese men with knee osteoarthritis (OA). We will assess clinical outcomes (WOMAC), serum biomarkers (COMP, IL-6), and real-world activity (accelerometry) at baseline, 8 weeks, and 6 months.

Conditions
