Motor Control of the Vastus Medialis Oblique and Vastus Lateralis Muscles is Disrupted during Eccentric Contractions in Subjects with Patellofemoral Pain

open access: yes, 2002
Background Inappropriate control of the vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis muscles by the central nervous system can contribute to maltracking of the patella.

New insight in the architecture of the quadriceps tendon

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2016
Background Published data regarding the structure of the quadriceps tendon are diverse. Dissection of the quadriceps muscle group revealed that beside the rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus intermedius and vastus medialis a fifth muscle component ...

An Interpretable, Data‐Driven, Hierarchical Multi‐Domain Fusion Framework for Classification and Motor Function Scoring in Chronic Ankle Instability

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 55, 5 October 2026.
An AI‐enabled digital twin framework integrates wearable EMG sensing with hierarchical multi‐domain fusion to classify chronic ankle instability, distinguish clinically relevant subtypes, and generate continuous motor function scores. Clinically interpretable functional stratification and SHAP‐based biomarker analysis provide transparent decision ...

Anti‐U1‐RNP‐Positive Inflammatory Myopathy Presenting With Dysphagia: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐titer anti‐U1‐RNP antibodies may present with myopathy without fulfilling MCTD criteria. We report a 38‐year‐old woman with proximal weakness, elevated muscle enzymes, anti‐U1‐RNP positivity, and inflammatory myopathy on EMG/MRI, but lacking classic overlap features.

Quantitative Muscle MRI Fat Fraction as a Biomarker of Disease Severity in Mitochondrial Myopathies

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Quantitative muscle MRI is increasingly used to assess structural muscle damage in inherited myopathies, but its application in primary mitochondrial myopathies (PMM) has not been systematically evaluated in large cohorts. Because PMM are clinically and genetically heterogeneous, objective imaging biomarkers are needed to quantify ...

Patellofemoral cartilage stresses are most sensitive to variations in vastus medialis muscle forces

open access: yes, 2019
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of variations in quadriceps muscle forces on patellofemoral stress. We created subject-specific finite element models for 21 individuals with chronic patellofemoral pain and 16 pain-free control ...

Surgical approach and insert constraint are associated with small differences in patellar tilt after robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty: A retrospective comparative radiographic study

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Orthopaedics, Volume 13, Issue 4, October 2026.
Abstract Purpose Patellofemoral alignment remains important after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Robotic‐assisted functional positioning may reduce the impact of approach‐ and implant‐related factors on the patellofemoral joint. This study evaluated the association between surgical approach and insert constraint with postoperative static patellar ...

Impact of Femoral Derotation Osteotomy on Patellofemoral Loading in Patients With Patellofemoral Instability: Insights From a Musculoskeletal Simulation Study

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Increased femoral version is linked to patellofemoral instability, increased lateral loading of the patella and might be treated with femoral derotation osteotomy (FDO) in excessive cases. However, the effects of FDO on patellofemoral stability and loading while walking are not fully understood and not measurable in vivo.
