Background Iliotibial band syndrome is the second most common running injury. A gradual
increase in its occurrence has been noted over the past decade. This may be related to the …

Background The popularity of running is still growing and, as participation increases, the
incidence of running-related injuries will also rise. Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) is the most …

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 …

Several inconsistent causative biomechanical factors are considered to be crucial in the
occurrence of iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS). The focus of this study was on assessing …

Study Design: Cross-sectional experimental laboratory study. Objective: To examine
differences in running mechanics between runners who had previously sustained iliotibial …

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 …

BACKGROUND: Iliotibial band syndrome is the leading cause of lateral knee pain in
runners. Despite its high prevalence, little is known about the biomechanics that lead to this …

Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) is a common knee overuse injury among female runners.
Atypical discrete trunk and lower extremity biomechanics during running may be associated …

Background Iliotibial band syndrome has been associated with altered hip and knee
kinematics in runners. Previous studies have recommended further research on …

Objective Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) is presumably caused by excessive tension in the
iliotibial band (ITB) leading to compression and inflammation of tissues lying beneath it …
