Rearfoot and knee coupling over a prolonged run in runners with patellofemoral pain syndrome
Introduction Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is common in runners and is often related to excessive rearfoot eversion. Increased eversion is known to be associated with increased knee flexion, internal rotation, and reduced adduction [1]. Therefore, our purpose was to investigate coupling between the foot and knee in runners with PFPS. We hypothesized that the PFPS group would display large...
متن کاملTibia and rearfoot motion and ground reaction forces in subjects with patellofemoral pain syndrome during walking.
Abnormal subtalar joint function and the consequent rotation of the tibia during walking are thought to contribute to patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). The purpose of this study was to measure rearfoot and tibia motion, and the ground reaction force (GRF) during the stance phase of walking in subjects with PFPS and compare them to healthy subjects. A four camera motion analysis system with a...
متن کاملStatic Balance in Patients With Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome
BACKGROUND The relationship between one-leg static standing balance (OLSSB) and patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is unknown. HYPOTHESIS OLSSB decreases in patients with PFPS. DESIGN Prospective case series. METHODS Fifty-two women with unilateral PFPS were enrolled in this study. OLSSB was evaluated with a stabilometer. Q angle was measured with a lengthened-arm universal goniometer. L...

متن کاملAn evaluation of the rearfoot posture in individuals with patellofemoral pain syndrome.
Structural abnormalities of the foot may cause abnormal subtalar joint compensatory motion in order to attain normal function of the lower extremity during gait although studies have not been conclusive. Current conflict in the literature may be related to the differing measures focused on the varying protocols and also the absence of a control group in some studies. This study investigated the...
