Background: The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of visual feedback squat exercise on the young adults with Patellofemoral pain syndrome. Methods: The subjects of this study were 22 female and 8 male who were equally and randomly allocated to a visual feedback exercise group (VSEG), an experimental group, and squat exercise group (SEG), a control group. Both did so for 30 minutes three times per week over a six-week period. Using Dartfish, their static Q-angle (SQA) and dynamic Q-angle (DQA) were evaluated. Results: The static Q-angle was significantly reduced in both groups of VSEG and SEG and in the comparison of difference values before and after exercise between groups, VSEG had more significant effect than SEG but in the comparison of the effects of dynamic Q-angle both VSEG and SEG had significant effects and in the comparison of difference values before and after exercise between groups, VSEG had more significant effect than SEG. Conclusion: Visual feedback squat exercise may be applied as a method to correct the lower extremity alignment with PFPS.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of tibial rotation while going up stair on muscle activity of vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis, and on patellar displacement. The subjects included 30 people (male: 15; female: 15) who were randomly assigned to the tibial internal-rotation, neutral-rotation, and external-rotation groups. The subjects went up the stair while performing the assigned rotations, and the rotation of the hip and the displacement of the patella were measured using a 3D motion analyzer. In addition, the maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) of the vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis were measured using surface electromyogram. On the tibial internal rotation, the hip rotation significantly appeared in the same direction and so did on the tibial neutral and external rotations(p<.001). Although the MVIC of the vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis did not significantly differ by tibial rotation during the stair ascent, the MVIC of the vastus medialis oblique was higher than that of the vastus lateralis during the internal and neutral rotations (p<.05). In addition, during the stair ascent, the displacement of the patella was more significant during the tibial external rotation than during the tibial internal and neutral rotations(p<.001). Thus, patients with patellofemoral pain are required to be considered the effects of tibial rotation for their rehabilitation.

Patellofemoral pain syndrome is the most common problem involving the knee, accounting for 25% of knee injuries. Repetitive, overuse activities cause increased force at the patellofemoral joint, resulting in pain during flexion and extension activities. Most research have been conducted in exploring the patellofemoral compressive force in gait, squat and lunges, even though in real cases, possibilities in landing exist. The purpose of this study was to compare the differences in patellofemoral compressive force according to two different height. Sixteen collegiate male students(age: 22.25 ${\pm}$ 3.30 yrs, height: 177.25 ${\pm}$ 4.44 cm, weight: 77.50 ${\pm}$ 8.18 kg) were chosen. The subjects performed drop landings in 45 cm, 60 cm. The findings demonstrated that higher height showed peak knee extension moment, quadriceps contraction force, patellofemoral compressive force with increased VGRF. Regarding the patellofemoral joint compressive force, it increased by quadriceps contraction force with knee flexion during landing, yet, it showed no difference in maximal knee flexion. To minimize patellofemoral joint stress and reduce the likelihood of developing PFPS, we recommend that predesigned quadriceps and hip muscle group strengthening are needed during conditioning and training.

본 연구는 경남소재 H대학에 재학 중인 20~30대를 대상으로 연구목적, 연구내용, 측정방법을 설명한 후 본 실험에 참여하기로 동의한 남녀 16명을 대상으로 실시하였다. 스쿼트 운동시 세 가지 조건, 즉 선자세, 60도 굴곡자세, 90도 굴곡자세 저항에 따른 넙다리곧은근, 가쪽넓은근, 안쪽넓은근, 앞정강근, 장딴지근 활성도의 전후차를 비교하기 위하여 대응표본 T-검정을 실시하였고, 저항에 따른 각 근육을 비교하기 위하여 반복측정에 의한 분산분석(repeated measured ANOVA)을 실시하였다. 60도 무릎관절 굴곡, 90도 무릎관절 굴곡시 앞정강근을 제외한 넙다리곧은근, 안쪽넓은근, 가쪽넓은근, 장딴지근에서 통계학적으로 근활성도가 증가하는 것으로 나타났고, 90도 무릎관절 굴곡시에는 안쪽넓은근에 비해 가쪽넓은근의 근활성도의 값이 큰 것으로 나타나 슬개대퇴동통증후군에도 좋지 않은 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구를 바탕으로 키높이 깔창을 착용한 상태에서의 운동의 슬개대퇴동통증후군을 악화시킬 수 있으므로 키높이 깔창을 착용하지 않는 것이 좋을 것으로 사료된다.
