Differences in onset time between the vastus medialis and lateralis during stair stepping in individuals with genu varum or valgum
[Purpose] We investigated the difference in onset time between the vastus medialis and lateralis according to knee alignment during stair ascent and descent to examine the effects of knee alignment on the quadriceps during stair stepping. [Subjects] Fifty-two adults (20 with genu varum, 12 with genu valgum, and 20 controls) were enrolled. Subjects with > 4 cm between the medial epicondyles of t...
متن کاملDifferences in onset timing between the vastus medialis and lateralis during concentric knee contraction in individuals with genu varum or valgum
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference in onset timing between the vastus medialis and lateralis among the different knee alignments, as well as the best isokinetic angular velocity for an isokinetic concentric contraction. [Subjects] Fifty-two adults (20 with genu varum, 12 genu valgum, and 20 controls) were enrolled in this study. Subjects with > 4 cm between th...
متن کاملA Study on the Differences of Quadriceps Femoris Activities by Knee Alignment during Isometric Contraction
[Purpose] This study attempted to identify how genu varum or valgum affects the electromyographic activities of the vastus medialis, vastus lateralis, and rectus femoris during knee isometric contraction. [Subjects] Fifty-two healthy young adults were enrolled in this study. They were enrolled and classified into three groups by knee alignment conditions: the genu varum, genu valgum, and contro...
متن کاملAnatomical Alignment of Lower Extremity in Subjects With Genu Valgum and Genu Varum Deformities
Purpose: Changes in lower extremity alignment in individuals with abnormality of this segments are unclear. The present study aimed to compare lower extremity alignment in subjects with genu valgum and genu varum deformities and healthy subjects in order to understand the lower extremity alignment changes in this group. Methods: This was a causal-comparative study. The sample comprised 120 m...
متن کاملOnset Latency of Vastus Medialis Obliques and Vastus Lateralis in Patients with Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome: Open or Closed Chain Terminal Knee Extension Exercise
Background & Aims: This study was performed to compare the effects of open and closed chain terminal knee extension exercises on onset latency of vastus medialis obliques (VMO) and vastus lateralis (VL), pain and function in subjects diagnosed with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Methods: In a pretest and posttest 5-week intervention study, 26 subjects diagnosed with PFPS and 13 healthy su...
