Recruitment of research samples was based on inclusion criteria, including 45-74 years old, both men and women, experiencing functional limitations, knee range of motion (ROM) and quadriceps muscle weakness in the extremities experiencing knee OA
Exclusion criteria

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| reduce interleukin 6 (IL-6) cytokine levels, improve functional ability and knee joint flexion ROM after 4 weeks of intervention in each treatment group | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| there was a significant difference between the study groups in improving functional ability and ROM flexion of the knee joint. however, the decrease in IL-6 levels only occurred in the static bicycle intervention group added with NMES. | — |
