Abstract:

Running-related injuries (RRIs) have been attributed to a number of factors, but there is no consensus in the current literature as to whether sex is a risk factor for RRIs, or if risk factors for running-related pain differ by sex. It has been suggested that due to differences in anatomy and biomechanics, males and females have their own RRI risk profiles; several variables may need to be taken into consideration when assessing sex as a risk factor for RRIs and running-related pain. Purpose: The proposed study represented the first two phases of a three-tiered epidemiological project. The pu

In addition, the effects of the transition on runner satisfaction were studied. To determine whether there were significant differences in lower limb injury incidence and pain, calf endurance,

Abstract:

Low back pain (LBP) is a substantial secondary disability among persons with lower-limb amputation (LLA). Abnormal mechanics of movement subsequent to LLA may increase the stability demands on the spinal column, and repetitive exposures to such abnormal movements may alter trunk passive properties and/or the coordination of surrounding trunk muscle responses. Further, preferential use of the sound limb may lead to asymmetries in these behaviors. Spine biomechanics (e.g., loading and stability) are substantially influenced by trunk passive properties and neuromuscular control, and alterations i

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is the leading cause of disability and is often accompanied with a back-related leg pain (around 60%), where those with radiating pain show worse overall clinical outcomes. Previous studies comparing these two groups have involved individuals with chronic LBP. It is not known if subjects who currently have LBP differ in pain sensitivity from those who have currently LBP accompanied with pain radiation to lower limbs. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate whether there are differences in self-reported health and pain sensitivity between individuals curren

Abstract:

Introduction: Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS) is characterised by pain in the region of the patellofemoral joint during functional tasks, sporting activities or following prolonged sitting. Strength deficits are commonly reported, however, there is no empirical evidence to support alterations in lower limb control. The knee and ankle joints of the lower limb interact to allow force absorption during loading activities. It is plausible that this interaction is altered in people with PFPS. Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the knee and ankle joint interaction in people with PFPS
