Rethman KK, Mansfield CJ, Moeller J, De Oliveira Silva D, Stephens JA, Di Stasi S, Briggs MS. Kinesiophobia Is Associated With Poor Function and Modifiable Through Interventions in People With Patellofemoral Pain: A Systematic Review With Individual Participant Data Correlation Meta-Analysis. Phys Ther 2023; 103:pzad074. [PMID: 37354454 PMCID: PMC10517194 DOI: 10.1093/ptj/pzad074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2022] [Revised: 02/27/2023] [Accepted: 06/17/2023] [Indexed: 06/26/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this systematic review and correlation meta-analysis was to identify factors associated with kinesiophobia in individuals with patellofemoral pain (PFP) and to identify interventions that may reduce kinesiophobia in individuals with PFP. METHODS Seven databases were searched for articles including clinical factors associated with kinesiophobia or interventions that may reduce kinesiophobia in individuals with PFP. Two reviewers screened articles for inclusion, assessed risk of bias and quality, and extracted data from each study. A mixed-effects model was used to calculate correlations of function and pain with kinesiophobia using individual participant data. Meta-analyses were performed on interventional articles; Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation was used to evaluate certainty of evidence. Results were reported narratively when pooling was not possible. RESULTS Forty-one articles involving 2712 individuals were included. Correlation meta-analyses using individual participant data indicated a moderate association between self-reported function and kinesiophobia (n = 499; r = -0.440) and a weak association between pain and kinesiophobia (n = 644; r = 0.162). Low-certainty evidence from 2 articles indicated that passive treatment techniques were more effective than minimal intervention in reducing kinesiophobia (standardized mean difference = 1.11; 95% CI = 0.72 to 1.49). Very low-certainty evidence from 5 articles indicated that interventions to target kinesiophobia (psychobehavioral interventions, education, and self-managed exercise) were better in reducing kinesiophobia than physical therapist treatment approaches not specifically targeting kinesiophobia (standardized mean difference = 1.64; 95% CI = 0.14 to 3.15). CONCLUSION Higher levels of kinesiophobia were moderately associated with poorer function and weakly associated with higher pain in individuals with PFP. Taping and bracing may reduce kinesiophobia immediately after use, and specific kinesiophobia-targeted interventions may reduce kinesiophobia following the full intervention; however, the certainty of evidence is very low. IMPACT Assessment of kinesiophobia in clinical practice is recommended, on the basis of the relationships identified between kinesiophobia and other important factors that predict outcomes in individuals with PFP.

Effects of Running on the Development of Knee Osteoarthritis: An Updated Systematic Review at Short-Term Follow-up. Orthop J Sports Med 2023; 11:23259671231152900. [PMID: 36875337 PMCID: PMC9983113 DOI: 10.1177/23259671231152900] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 03/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Some studies have suggested that running increases the risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA), while others believe it serves a protective function. Purpose To perform an updated systematic review of the literature to determine the effects of running on the development of knee OA. Study Design Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4. Methods A systematic review was performed by searching the PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases to identify studies evaluating the effect of cumulative running on the development of knee OA or chondral damage based on imaging and/or patient-reported outcomes (PROs). The search terms used were "knee AND osteoarthritis AND (run OR running OR runner)." Patients were evaluated based on plain radiographs, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and PROs (presence of knee pain, Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index, and the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score). Results Seventeen studies (6 level 2 studies, 9 level 3 studies, and 2 level 4 studies), with 7194 runners and 6947 nonrunners, met the inclusion criteria. The mean follow-up time was 55.8 months in the runner group and 99.7 months in the nonrunner group. The mean age was 56.2 years in the runner group and 61.6 years in the nonrunner group. The overall percentage of men was 58.5%. There was a significantly higher prevalence of knee pain in the nonrunner group (P < .0001). Although 1 study found a significantly higher prevalence of osteophytes in the tibiofemoral (TF) and patellofemoral (PF) joints within the runner group, multiple studies found no significant differences in the prevalence of radiographic knee OA (based on TF/PF joint-space narrowing or Kellgren-Lawrence grade) or cartilage thickness on MRI between runners and nonrunners (P > .05). One study found a significantly higher risk of knee OA progressing to total knee replacement among nonrunners (4.6% vs 2.6%; P = .014). Conclusion In the short term, running is not associated with worsening PROs or radiological signs of knee OA and may be protective against generalized knee pain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is one of the musculoskeletal system pathologies frequently encountered especially in women. OBJECTIVE The aim of the current study was to compare the efficacy of an online exercise program with a home exercise program including the same exercises, and a control group planned for females with PFPS. METHODS The study included 60 females with PFPS aged 33.17 ± 6.84. Participants were randomly divided into 3 groups. One of the groups was given a 6-week home program consisting of evidence-based exercises. Exercises consisting of the same exercises were supervised online to another group. The third group did not receive any intervention. Pain, knee joint range of motion, muscle strength in flexion and extension and hip posterolateral muscle group, patellofemoral joint functionality, quality of life, recurrence of injury and fear of movement were measured at preintervention and postintervention. RESULTS Participation in the online supervised exercise group was seen to result in a greater decrease in pain during activity and kinesiophobia, and a greater increase in the quality of life mental health sub-dimension compared to the home exercise group. CONCLUSION Online supervised exercise groups could be an alternative telerehabilitation method for exercise programs established for women with PFPS.

Comparison of the Superiority of Quadriceps Strengthening Isometric and Isotonic Exercises with Respect to Pain, Quality of Life, and Functional Capacity of Patients with Chondromalacia Patellae. JOURNAL OF BASIC AND CLINICAL HEALTH SCIENCES 2022.

Abstract
Purpose: This study aims to investigate the superiority of different exercise modalities, including isotonic and isometric strengthening for quadriceps, over each other and their effect on pain, quality of life and functional capacity in patients diagnosed with chondromalacia patellae (CMP).
Methods: This study was designed as a prospective study in 30 patients(15 patients in isometric, 15 patients in isotonic group) and 15 healthy volunteers aged 20–50 years who were diagnosed with CMP based on physical examination and magnetic resonance imaging and had pain complaints. Pain level was evaluated with Visual Analogue Scala (VAS), functional capacity with Lysholm scale, and quality of life with Short Form-36(SF-36). Q-angle, and thigh circumference were evaluated before and after exercise in all patients.
Results: In patients with CMP, there were significant differences in Q-angle, pain, functional capacity, and some subcomponents of the SF-36 quality of life after performing isometric or isotonic exercises compared with the control group (p0,05). In the evaluation of the isotonic and isometric exercise groups, there were no significant difference in the assessment of Q-angle, thigh circumference, pain, functional capacity, and quality of life of patients with CMP (p>0,05).
Conclusion: Isometric and isotonic quadriceps strengthening exercises are not superior to each other in terms of pain, functional capacity, and quality of life in CMP treatment.
