Prevalence and Risk Factors for Musculoskeletal Pain when Running During Pregnancy: A Survey of 3102 Women.

Background: Musculoskeletal pain while running is a concern to women during pregnancy and can lead to running cessation. To support women who wish to run during pregnancy, it is essential to understand the sites, severities and personal risk factors associated with musculoskeletal pain.

Objective: The aim was to investigate prevalence and risk factors for musculoskeletal pain when running during pregnancy.

Effect of Footwear Versus Barefoot on Double-Leg Jump-Landing and Jump Height Measures: A Randomized Cross-Over Study.

Background: Assessing individuals in their own athletic footwear in clinics is common, but can affect movement, performance, and clinical measures.

Purpose: The aim was to compare overall Landing Error Scoring System (LESS) scores, injury risk categorization, specific LESS errors, and jump heights between habitual athletic footwear and barefoot conditions.

Study Design: Randomized cross-over laboratory study.

An exploration of normative values in New Zealand to inform the Targeted Interventions for Patellofemoral Pain approach.

Background: The Targeted Interventions for Patellofemoral Pain studies (TIPPs) have identified three subgroups exist in United Kingdom and Turkish patellofemoral pain (PFP) populations: Strong; Weak and Tight; and Weak and Pronated, based on six clinical assessments. The thresholds used to develop the subgrouping algorithms were based on normative values sourced from various populations and countries.

Objectives: Explore normative scores from the clinical assessments in a singular non-PFP population whilst considering potential differences between ethnicities and sex (primary aim).
