We’re finalizing Phase 2 of our Delphi study. If you received an invitation, don’t miss your chance to contribute and help advance research in this field.
Your expertise matters!! 🚨‼️

Not all patellofemoral pain is the same.
A history of knee trauma may influence:
- Clinical presentation
- Movement strategy
- Interpretation of biomechanical findings
New paper published👇🏼

🆕Although self-reported symptom duration is vastly used to measure the persistence of PFP, its accuracy seems questionable
‼️Read our paper for potential alternatives

🚨Our newest Systematic Review, including 83 studies, showed large-effect deficits in function of individuals with PFP! However, they were not explained by age, BMI, symptoms duration or pain.

Online First - Marina Waiteman, MS, PT and colleagues compare performance and proportion of side-to-side limb symmetry during the forward step-down and single-leg hop tests among people with unilateral and bilateral PFP, and pain-free controls.

Can we use the contralateral limb as a reference standard when assessing physical performance of people with unilateral or bilateral patellofemoral pain?
Our latest study published in @JAT_NATA has interesting results about this 👆

Portable dynamometers are reliable to measure hip muscle strength. Clinicians may rely on these evidence-based recommendations to set up reliable testing protocols 👇👇👇👇

Portable dynamometers may be better for tracking trends than for assessing actual strength values taken from movements at the hip...
Lots more, including recommendations on how to set up reliable testing protocols

There is more to the knee joint than just the quadriceps

Helder dos Santos Lopes retweeted
As titled, exercise-induced fatigue affects knee proprioceptive acuity and quadriceps neuromuscular function more in patients with ACL reconstruction or meniscus surgery than in healthy individuals.

Are hip muscle strength measures from portable dynamometers reliable and validity? What test positions should clinicians use?💪💪💪

Neal Glaviano, UConn assistant professor of kinesiology, has discovered that rehabilitation to address chronic knee pain may not be targeting all the right muscles.

Do individuals with gradual-onset knee disorders have impairments on hamstring strength, flexibility and morphology? Check out our new systematic review in @JSHS_MedHealth! Well done @helderslopes! Thanks @DrBazettJones and @NealGlaviano for the collab!
