Methods One-hundred twenty-three individuals (mean age 64.9±8.5 yr) with
Kellgren/Lawrence grade IV knee OA participated. Quadriceps strength (MVIC) and …

Study Design Prospective cohort. Background Quadriceps strength is associated with hop
distance and jump height in persons who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) …

Study Design Systematic literature review. Objective To perform a systematic review of
randomized controlled trials assessing the effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation …

Purpose Quadriceps femoris (QF) strength deficits at return-to-sport (RTS) after ACL
reconstruction (ACLR) contribute to decreased knee function at the same time point …

Background Despite the high prevalence of residual quadriceps muscle weakness after
anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, specific predictive factors have not been identified …

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and reconstruction (ACLR) promote
quadriceps muscle atrophy and weakness that can persist for years, suggesting the need for …

Methods Ninety-six individuals with a history of a primary unilateral ACLR were recruited for
a multisite cross-sectional descriptive laboratory experiment. Bilateral isometric quadriceps …

Study Design Randomized clinical trial, single-masked. Objectives To determine the
effectiveness of using a modified neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) training …

Study Design Prospective cross-sectional study. Objectives To compare knee muscle
morphology and voluntary neuromuscular control in individuals who sustained an anterior …

Background Inadequate quadriceps strength following anterior cruciate ligament
reconstruction (ACLR) often results in alterations in gait pattern that are usually reported …
