Does femoral anteversion and internally rotated gait correlate in subjects with patellofemoral instability?

Background: Patellar instability is a considerable problem that leads to pain and anxiety during simple functional tasks. Femoral derotational osteotomy has become a common surgical procedure to improve patella mechanics, stability and loading. However, it remains unclear if static (MRI measured) femoral anteversion is sufficient to capture the dynamic femoral rotation during walking and represents a good indication for the surgical procedure.

Does Home-Based Progressive Resistance or High-Intensity Circuit Training Improve Strength, Function, Activity or Participation in Children With Cerebral Palsy?

Objective: Does home-based progressive resistance or high-intensity circuit training improve strength, function, activity, or participation in children with cerebral palsy (CP)?

Design: This was the first study on high-intensity circuit training for children with CP. This study was conducted as a randomized prospective controlled pilot study.

Setting: Evaluation took place at the gait laboratory of the university hospital, training sessions were performed at home.
