Objective: To examine the interaction and relative contributions of frontal plane alignment and body mass on dynamic knee joint loading in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).Methods: We completed three-dimensional gait analyses and hip-to-ankle standing anteroposterior radiographs on 487 patients with knee OA referred to a tertiary care center specializing in orthopaedics.Results: Using sequential (hierarchical) linear regression, the interaction term (mechanical axis angle x mass) contributed significantly (P
