Background Impairments in hamstring strength, flexibility, and morphology have been
associated with altered knee biomechanics, pain, and function. Determining the presence of …

Irisin, an exercise-induced myokine, exhibits elevated levels during physical activity, yet its
role in modulating the unfolded protein response (UPR) remains poorly understood. This …

Context Little is known about how the combination of pain severity and duration affects
quadriceps function and self-reported function in patients with anterior knee pain (AKP) …

Context Existing patellofemoral pain (PFP) literature has primarily been focused on
quadriceps muscle volume, with limited attention given to the deep and superficial muscle …

The quadriceps femoris is the most voluminous muscle of the human body. From a sporting
point of view, it is an extraordinarily important muscle, but it is often subject to trauma due to …

Neural changes in the ankle stabilizing muscles following ankle sprains are thought to be
one contributing factor to persistent ankle dysfunction. However, empirical evidence is …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to assess patient satisfaction and identify risk factors
for dissatisfaction after anterior stabilised conventional total knee arthroplasty (TKA) without …

Background Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is characterized by peripatellar or retro
patellar pain, as a result of changes in the physical and biochemical components of the …

Background: Impaired knee extensor neuromuscular function has been frequently observed
in individuals with patellofemoral pain (PFP); however, few researchers have aimed to …

Introduction Isometric hip strength seems to have limited association with frontal plane
kinematics in individuals with patellofemoral pain (PFP), but little is known about the …
