The hip abductor muscles have the capability to contribute to numerous actions, including
pelvic stabilization during gait, and abduction and rotation at the hip joint. To fully …

The aim of this literature review was to identify the biomechanical variables involved in the
aetiology of iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) in distance runners. An electronic search was …

The aim of the study was to investigate the uniformity of the muscle motor point location for
lower limb muscles in healthy subjects. Fifty-three subjects of both genders (age range: 18 …

Background and Purpose: Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS) is the second leading cause of
pain in runners and there are a number of theories related to its etiology. Multiple theories …

Although several studies have described kinematic deviations such as excessive hip
adduction in patients with iliotibial band (ITB) syndrome, the factors contributing to increased …

Background Local neuromuscular deficits have been reported in people with patellofemoral
pain. We synthesised the neuromuscular characteristics associated with patellofemoral pain …

The quadriceps femoris is traditionally described as a muscle group composed of the rectus
femoris and the three vasti. However, clinical experience and investigations of anatomical …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to reveal the degree of muscle recovery and report
the clinical results of anatomical single-bundle ACL reconstruction using a quadriceps …

BACKGROUND: Although different conservative treatment options have been proposed,
there is a paucity of research on the management of iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) in …

Purpose Current methods for estimating muscle motor unit (MU) number provide values
which are remarkably similar for muscles of widely differing size, probably because surface …
