Study Design Case-control study. Objective To examine electromechanical delay (EMD) of
the vastus medialis obliquus (VMO) and the vastus lateralis (VL) in individuals with …

Background and Purpose. Inappropriate neural control of the quadriceps femoris muscle
group has been implicated in patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). This study investigated …

Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS) is a common musculoskeletal complaint. The
presence of a delay between vastus medialis obliquus (VMO) and vastus lateralis (VL) …

The aims of this study were to examine group differences in muscle activation onset of the
vastus medialis (VM) in relation to the vastus lateralis (VL) and pain level during stair ascent …

Background: Delayed onset of vastus medialis (VM) activity compared with vastus lateralis
activity is a reported cause for patellofemoral pain. The delayed onset of VM activity in …

Cowan SM, Bennell KL, Hodges PW, Crossley KM, McConnell J. Delayed onset of
electromyographic activity of vastus medialis obliquus relative to vastus lateralis in subjects …

Background Delayed onset of vastus medialis obliquus activity has been described in
patellofemoral pain patients. No prospective study investigating the development of …

Study design: Test–retest reliability using a repeated measures design. Objectives: The aim
of this study was to evaluate the test–retest reliability of measurement of onsets of …

PURPOSE AND METHOD: In this literature review, relevant studies on electromyographic
(EMG) onset timing of vastus medialis obliquus and vastus lateralis in people with and …

Muscle force cannot be directly inferred from neural drive assessed using electromyography
(EMG). Although the limitations associated with inferring force from EMG are well known, this …
