Synopsis

Thirty runners with patellofemoral pain were randomized to receive gait retraining focusing on impact (n=10) or cadence (n=10), or to a control group (n=10) receiving no intervention. The primary outcomes of interest were usual and running pain, and secondary outcomes included knee function, and lower limb kinematics such as contralateral pelvic drop, hip adduction, knee flexion, ankle dorsiflexio...
