Abstract: This article is to depict the difference between the force applied by normal and diabetic patients having knee instability and to plot a graph to show the deviation between them. Diabetic patients suffer from many potential complications. One of the major complications is muscle degeneration due to protein imbalance caused by decreased amount of insulin production. This leads to knee weakness and inability to walk normally. This is a main setback in old patients since they are more prone to fall and there is no permanent treatment as of now. Our aim is to determine the deviation of the force applied by the patients with knee instability from the normal population.
Keywords: Diabetes mellitus, knee instability, muscle degeneration, force, deviation.
