Do patellofemoral pain patients have higher loading rate compared to healthy indivalues? A systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors
Abstract:
Purpose: Higher loading rates have been associated with injuries, plantar fasciitis, tibia bone stress injuries, knee osteoarthritis and PFP. The aim of this study is the evaluation of loading rate in PFP patients compared to healthy individuals during weight bearing tasks. Methods: Search strategy was conducted in databases: Science Direct, Scopus, PubMed and Google Scholar. The outcome measuring: loading rate were during weight bearing tasks. The quality of the studies was evaluated by Down and Black index and it was divided into three groups: low quality (LQ), medium quality (MQ) and high quality (HQ). The standardized mean difference between PFP patients and healthy individuals was used to calculate the effect size. Results: Seven articles were included of that 4 studies was HQ and 3 MQ were classified. The no significant difference between PFP patients and healthy individuals in the loading rate (p = 0.52); But strong evidence with medium effect size (SMD = 0.50; 95% CI= [- 1.01 to 2.00]) indicates a tendency to increase loading rates in PFP patients compared to healthy individuals. Conclusion: The compensatory mechanism in PFP patients, decrease of active shock absorption which finally leads to higher loading rates that can have effect on the tibiofemoral joint that correlating to the development of pain and knee osteoarthritis.

Which patellofemoral joint imaging features are associated with patellofemoral pain? Systematic review and meta-analysis.
OBJECTIVES To review the association between patellofemoral joint (PFJ) imaging features and patellofemoral pain (PFP). DESIGN A systematic review of the literature from AMED, CiNAHL, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), MEDLINE, PEDro, EMBASE and SPORTDiscus was undertaken from their inception to September 2014. Studies were eligible if they used magnetic resonance imagi...

Purpose: Increased patellofemoral joint reaction force (PFJRF) is the main cause of patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFP). Foot pronation causes faulty joint coupling of the lower limb and increases the PFJRF. Therefore, the aim of systematic review is effect of the distal interventions on the clinical symptoms and kinematic of PFP patients. Methods: The search strategy was carried out from Goo...

BACKGROUND A large body of scientific literature derived from experimental studies emphasizes the vital role of vagal-nociceptive networks in acute pain processing. However, research on vagal activity, indexed by vagally-mediated heart rate variability (vmHRV) in chronic pain patients (CPPs), has not yet been summarized. OBJECTIVES To systematically investigate differences in vagus nerve acti...

BACKGROUND Patellofemoral pain is considered one of the most common forms of knee pain, affecting adults, adolescents, and physically active populations. Inconsistencies in reported incidence and prevalence exist and in relation to the allocation of healthcare and research funding, there is a clear need to accurately understand the epidemiology of patellofemoral pain. METHODS An electronic da...
