“…10,24 The positive results for the standardized exercise program in 1 study 10 are consistent with the findings of this review (ie, strengthening and flexibility exercise of the quadriceps muscles could lead to reduction in incidence of PFPS). The positive effects of prevention programs for military recruits 10,24 and of treatment programs for the general population 8,38 suggest the effectiveness of such programs. These prevention programs should aim at high-risk groups, such as military recruits and athletes.…”

Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is the most frequently diagnosed condition in patients younger than 50 years with knee complaints. While the general practitioner sees an average of 5 or 6 new patients with PFPS per year , the incidence of PFPS in the general population is still unknown. 4,37 Women have a higher incidence of PFPS than men, 33 and incidence rates of 25% to 43% have been reported in sports medicine and during basic military T T STUDY DESIGN: Systematic review. T T OBJECTIVES:To systematically outline the risk factors for patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). T T BACKGROUND:PFPS is the most commonly diagnosed condition in young individuals with knee complaints. High incidence among athletes suggests a possibility of prevention. The first step toward prevention is identification of possible risk factors. T T METHODS:Prospective studies that included 20 or more patients with PFPS and examined at least 1 possible risk factor for PFPS were included. An assessment list was applied to evaluate the quality of the studies. A meta-analysis was conducted using a random-effects model. Significant differences were based on calculated mean differences, with matching 95% confidence intervals (CIs). For dichotomous data, odds ratios or relative risks were calculated. T T RESULTS:Of the 3845 potentially relevant articles, 7 were included in this review. These studies examined a total of 135 variables, and pooling was possible for 13 potential risk factors. The pooled data showed that knee extension peak torques were significantly lower in the PFPS group than in controls. Mean differences in torque, with negative differences reflecting lower means in the PFPS group, were as follows: (a) standardized relative to body weight at 60°/s, -0.24 Nm (95% CI: -0.39, -0.09); (b) standardized relative to body weight at 240°/s, -0.11 Nm (95% CI: -0.17, -0.05); (c) standardized relative to body mass index at 60°/s, -0.84 Nm (95% CI: -1.23, -0.44); (d) standardized relative to body mass index at 240°/s, -0.32 Nm (95% CI: -0.52, -0.12); (e) nonstandardized in a concentric mode at 60°/s, -17.54 Nm (95% CI: -25.53, -9.54); (f) nonstandardized in a concentric mode at 240°/s, -7.72 Nm (95% CI: -12.67, -2.77). T T CONCLUSION:Weaker knee extension strength, expressed by peak torque, appears to be a risk factor for PFPS, based on meta-analyses of pooled results from multiple studies. Because several other risk factors for PFPS were described only in single studies, these additional risk factors, as well as those with conflicting evidence, need to be confirmed in future studies.

J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2012;42(2):81-94, Epub 25 October 2011. doi:10.2519/jospt.2012 14,34 T T LEVEL OF EVIDENCE:The term patellofemoral pain syndrome is commonly used to describe a condition of anterior knee pain. Although there is no consensus on the terminology, various synonyms are used for PFPS. 12 The guidelines of the Dutch College of General Practitioners describe PFPS as a pain in or around the patella. This pain increas...

“…Motion control shoes are recommended for individuals with low-arches, stability shoes for individuals with normal-arches, and cushioning shoes for individuals with high-arches [8,9]. However, recent prospective studies have demonstrated that selecting a running shoe based on static plantar surface measures does not reduce injuries in recruits during basic training in the Air Force [1], Army [2], or Marine Corps [3]. In these studies, trained evaluators examined the plantar surface of the foot in contact with an acrylic surface and rated the foot as low, normal, or high arched.…”

“…Static, geometric measurements have previously been used in both clinical and research settings to describe and classify foot structure, but recent prospective studies have demonstrated that assigning running shoes based on such classifications does not reduce musculoskeletal injuries [1][2][3]. The use of geometric measurements during gait from a pedobarographic platform may provide clinicians and researchers valuable information about the geometry and alignment of the foot.…”

RESUMOIntrodução: A aptidão física é imprescindível para policiais militares. Entretanto, apesar de a finalidade do treinamento militar ser o aperfeiçoamento de diferentes componentes da aptidão física, sua execução de forma não adequada pode associar-se ao desenvolvimento de lesões musculoesqueléticas. Objetivo: Verificar o efeito do treinamento físico militar sobre indicadores de aptidão física e incidência de lesões musculoesqueléticas em participantes do Curso de Formação de Soldados da Polícia Militar do Estado de São Paulo. Método: A amostra foi composta por 86 homens que foram submetidos ao Teste de Aptidão Física no início e depois de 54 semanas de treinamento. As informações sobre lesões foram obtidas com questionário específico. Resultados: Houve melhora significativa do volume máximo de oxigênio (VO 2máx ), resistência muscular localizada, força e velocidade ao final do treinamento. Entretanto, 45,3% dos policiais sofreram uma ou mais lesões, sendo 65,6% delas concentradas nos membros inferiores, 18% nos membros superiores e 16,4% no tronco e na cabeça. O nível osteoarticular concentrou 50,8% das lesões, o nível músculo-ligamentar, 26,3% e o tegumentar, 22,9%. Conclusão: Apesar do resultado satisfatório em relação à aptidão física, a incidência de lesões entre os policiais foi elevada.Descritores: aptidão física; militares; sistema musculoesquelético/lesões. ABSTRACT Introduction: Physical fitness is imperative for military police officers. However, although the purpose of military training is to improve different components of physical fitness, its inadequate performance may be associated with the development of musculoskeletal injuries. Objective: To verify the effect of military physical training on indicators of physical fitness and incidence of musculoskeletal injuries in participants of the Training
