Is there a correlation in frontal plane knee kinematics between running and performing a single leg squat in runners with patellofemoral pain syndrome and asymptomatic runners?

Abstract: Background: Knee kinematics when running, specifically knee valgus, have been linked to patellofemoral pain syndrome. Assessing running biomechanics requires skill, equipment and time. Clinically, the single leg squat is used to make inferences about knee kinematics during running. No evidence supports this practice. Methods: Sixteen asymptomatic runners and sixteen runners with patellofemoral pain syndrome were recruited. Asymptomatic runners were subdivided by dominant and non-dominant leg and runners with p… Show more

“…Consistent with those results, frontal plane projection angle-a 2-dimensional measure of knee abduction-was significantly correlated between running and single-leg squats in healthy runners. 11 That relation, however, was not significant in injured runners. Ostensibly, in injured runners, the higher loads during running elicit pain, which may alter their movement patterns during running.…”

“…In previous research, frontal plane projection angles (i.e., a two-dimensional measure of knee abduction) measured during single-leg squats and running were significantly correlated in asymptomatic runners. 11 That suggests that single-leg squats and hopping may be valid tasks to assess whether a runner would display aberrant frontal plane kinematics during running. Frontal plane projection angle was also significantly correlated with knee internal rotation during singleleg squats.…”

“…Twenty-three studies (four prospective and 19 retrospective) were included in the systematic review [31,[58][59][60][61][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78]. These studies analysed in total 114 potential RRRFs (SDC).…”

“…The author used the test of valgus as an angle of knee displacement in the frontal plane ≥15˚ from the starting position. In the available literature, most researchers used the criterion of knee displacement angle in the frontal plane >0˚ [32] or >10˚ [47].…”
