Patellofemoral Pain (PFP) is a musculoskeletal knee disorder characterized by retropatellar or peripatellar pain, which is exacerbated during functional tasks (e.g., sitting, stair ascent or descent, jumping, and landing). PFP affects approximately one in four young adults, and symptoms may persist for up to 20 years after diagnosis. There is evidence that PFP may precede clinical signs o…
Potential benefits of telerehabilitation are improved and earlier access to care. However, it is still not known whether early treatment via telerehabilitation can lead to greater clinical improvements of patients with patellofemoral pain (PFP) than usual delayed treatment. As telerehabilitation outcomes may differ by country and socioeconomic status, it is necessary to investigate the ef…
Patellofemoral Pain (PFP) is a common and persistent musculoskeletal disorder characterized by an insidious onset of pain at, around or behind the patella during daily and functional activities. It affects approximately 23% of the general adult population, and is responsible for 11% to 17% of all knee pain evaluated in general practice. PFP is associated with poorer health-related quality…
Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is characterized as retro- and/or peripatellar pain that is exacerbated during physical activities such as squatting, running, jumping or landing. The annual prevalence is 23% in the general population, affecting mainly young adults and women. The symptoms of PFP are related to physical and non-physical impairments. Because of its chronic nature, it is possible t…
With the aim of investigating the reliability of the variables investigated in the generation project, a scientific initiation student will carry out a cross-sectional study to determine the reliability, standard error of measurement and minimum detectable difference of the investigated variables. Biomechanical data, muscle torque, physical activity level and pain pressure threshold will …

Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is one of the most common running-related knee injuries, while also affects one-quarter of the general population that are not runners. Individuals with PFP present with reduced hip and knee muscle torque, pressure pain threshold, physical activity level, increased fear of movement, and pain catastrophizing. They also present with altered body composition (e.g., …
Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is one of the most common running-related knee injuries, while also affects one-quarter of the general population that are not runners. Pain intensity is highly variable in these individuals and fluctuates depending on the exposure to increased physical activity and pain-provoking tasks. Although previous literature has already hypothesized that exposure to physi…
Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is a common and costly musculoskeletal disorder that encompasses men, women and adolescents. Muscles such as the hamstring can influence knee and patellofemoral joint mechanics during functional activities. In fact, experimental studies have shown that hamstrings loading contributes to lateral patellofemoral malalignment and elevated cartilage pressure, main cont…
Patellofemoral pain is a common and costly musculoskeletal disorder that encompasses men, women and adolescents. Although the dominant symptom is pain around and behind the patella, patients also describe patellofemoral crepitus, knee stiffness and poor quality of life. Individuals with PFP often complain of knee joint stiffness after prolonged periods in knee flexion and a possible relat…
