Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. patients with KOA: (1) has been diagnosed by the physician as medial compartment knee OA according to the clinical and radiographic criteria proposed by the American College of Rheumatology (Altman Asch, Bloch, Bole & Borenstein et al, 1986); (2) Imaging diagnosis of osteophyte formation in the knee; (3) Imaging diagnosis of the medial ventricular osteophyte formation age of 3880years; (4) The Kellgren/Lawrence(K/L) standard is rated at 2 or 3 levels, without the need to help you walk at least 6 meters and ups and down 4 steps on the ground.Level 2 is positive for osteophyte and possible joint space stenosis; Level 3 is moderate multiple osteophyte, which is positive for joint space narrowing, hardening and possible bone deformity; (5) Volunteer to participate and sign informed consent. 2. patients without KOA: (1) The diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis was diagnosed by clinician; (2) Age 38-80 years; (3) could to walk without help for at least 6 meters and upstairs and downstairs 4 steps.
