An Updated Model Does Not Reveal Sex Differences in Patellofemoral Joint Stress during Running
International Journal of Sports Physical Therapy, 2022 # Background Structure-specific loading may have implications in understanding the mechanisms of running related injury. As females demonstrate a prevalence of patellofemoral pain twice that of males, this may indicate differences in patellofemoral ...
