Clinical Trial: Assessing Lower Extremity Dynamic Stability in Middle-Aged and Elderly Patients With Patellofemoral Pain Using the Y-Balance Test

U.S., July 17 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07068984) titled 'Assessing Lower Extremity Dynamic Stability in Middle-Aged and Elderly Patients With Patellofemoral Pain Using the Y-Balance Test' on May 28.

Brief Summary: Background: Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a common functional disorder of knee joint. Its etiology involves biomechanical abnormalities and dynamic stability defects. Most of the existing studies focus on young people, and the biomechanical characteristics and functional compensation mechanism of middle-aged and elderly patients are still unclear. The Y-Balance test is becoming an important tool in PFPS research because of its sensitivity to assess the dynamic balance a...
