Exacerbating patellofemoral pain alters trunk and lower limb coordination patterns and hip-knee mechanics

RV Briani, J Cannon, MHM Ducatti, LB Del Priore… - Journal of …, 2022 - Elsevier
The exacerbation of patellofemoral pain (PFP) may lead to compensatory trunk and lower
limb movement patterns in order to minimize patellofemoral joint loading. However, joint …

Lower extremity mechanics of females with and without patellofemoral pain across activities with progressively greater task demands

JD Willson, IS Davis - Clinical biomechanics, 2008 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: Patellofemoral pain is commonly associated with lower extremity joint
rotations that decrease retropatellar contact area and subsequently increase retropatellar …

Influence of the exacerbation of patellofemoral pain on trunk kinematics and lower limb mechanics during stair negotiation

RV Briani, J Cannon, MC Waiteman… - Gait & Posture, 2021 - Elsevier
Background Although it is assumed that the presence of patellofemoral pain (PFP) may
result in compensatory behaviors that can alter trunk kinematics and lower limb mechanics …

Limb support in response to balance provocations in women with patellofemoral pain

AK Stensdotter, JB Guerra… - Advances in …, 2009 - Taylor & Francis
Chronic pain may modulate motor strategies not only in the presence of pain but also in pain-
free periods. Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is characterized by intermittent periods with knee …

The effects of movement pattern modification on lower extremity kinematics and pain in women with patellofemoral pain

Women with patellofemoral pain show changes in trunk and lower limb sagittal movements during single-leg squat and step-down tasks

ÂK Morita, M Tavella Navega - Physiotherapy Theory and Practice, 2023 - Taylor & Francis
Background Changes in the trunk and lower limbs' sagittal movements may cause
patellofemoral pain (PFP) because they influence the forces acting on this joint. Objectives …

The influence of sagittal trunk posture on the magnitude and rate of patellofemoral joint stress during stair ascent in asymptomatic females

LT Atkins, C Smithson, D Grimes, N Heuer - Gait & Posture, 2019 - Elsevier
Background: Excessive patellofemoral joint stress (PFJS) is thought to be a contributory
factor to patellofemoral pain (PFP). Thus, treatment strategies that minimize PFJS rate and …

Higher pain level and lower functional capacity are associated with the number of altered kinematics in women with patellofemoral pain

D Ferrari, RV Briani, D de Oliveira Silva, MF Pazzinatto… - Gait & posture, 2018 - Elsevier
This study investigated whether women with patellofemoral pain (PFP) present kinematic
alterations in proximal, local, and distal factors simultaneously, and determined the …
