Do exist differences in kinematics and EMG of the hip and knee between male runners with and without patellofemoral pain in different running speeds?

Objective: Patellofemoral pain (PFP) presents a higher prevalence in female runners, while PFP in male is somehow neglected. Moreover, the effects of progressive greater running speed have not been reported. This study investigates the influence of progressive greater running speed on lower limb tridimensional kinematics and muscle activation (EMG) in male runners with PFP while compared with controls.
