研究概览
简要总结
This study take 84 patients with Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome in Peking University Third Hospital during January to September in 2023 as subjects, aiming to explore the efficacy and intervention effects of three different static squat modes including straight leg raise, wall squat, direct squat and wall squat assisted by elastic bands for patients with PFPS, in order to providing theoretical basis and effective guidance for future home rehabilitation of patients with PFPS combined with mobile health.
详细描述
Background：Static squat has been widely used in the treatments of patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS), but no study has assessed which static squat modes is more effective .This study aimed to compare the effects of three different static squat modes on patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome .
Methods：Investigators included 84 patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome, a 6-week training period using a mobile phone app with angle recognition function, patients were devided into 4 groups based on different static squat modes. Kujala score, Lysholm score, VAS-W score, VAS-U score,thigh circumference, peak torque of knee extension, and peak torque of knee flexion on the affected side were used to assess efficacy.Two-way ANOVA was conducted to determine the differences within and between groups.Paired-samples t-test was used for intergroup comparisons, and one-way ANOVA was applied for intergroup comparisons. Chi-square tests were performed on categorical data.

研究组 & 干预措施
Control group: straight leg raise
The patient was supine position, one knee angle was 90°, the foot was flatted on the ground. The ankle was flexed to contract the quadriceps on the other side. Then straighten the knee joint and the hip was 30° and lift the thigh, the heel was about 20cm away from the ground, and put down the lower limb after 2 seconds. Ten times are in a group, each practice has 5 groups, rest between the groups is 1 minute. Practice 5 times a week, practice on both sides, take uniform respiration without holding breath.
干预措施: straight leg raise (Behavioral)
Experimental group A: wall squat
The subjects' upper body was upright, the distance between feet was same as width of shoulder, and hands were placed on each side of the body or above the thighs. Tiptoes were towards the front, and perpendicular to the wall. The distance between the wall and heel was about a foot long, and the back was close to the wall, squatted slowly.
干预措施: wall squat (Behavioral)
Experimental group B: direct squat
The subjects stood on the flat ground, the upper body was upright, the distance between feet was same as width of shoulder, and tiptoes were towards the front. The trunk was adjusted forward according to the Angle of static squat. The specific method is to adjust the trunk position to the line of the shoulder joint and knee joint perpendicular to the ground. Knee joint can bend at a large angle.The center of gravity was between the feet, put hands in front of body.The angle was set at 30° for the first two weeks, increased to 45° after two weeks, and set at 60° for the last two weeks.
干预措施: direct squat (Behavioral)
Experimental group C: wall squat assisted by elastic bands
Based on wall squat, subjects put elastic band of 20 pounds between the thighs, open thighs and feet at a low speed, so that the elastic bands were slightly deformed and sence of resistance was obvious on the outside of the thighs.The angle was set at 30° for the first two weeks, increased to 45° after two weeks, and set at 60° for the last two weeks.
干预措施: wall squat assisted by elastic bands (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Efficacy of three different static squat modes for home rehabilitation of patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome.
时间窗: 6 weeks
Investigators assessed the efficacy of wall squat, direct squat and wall squat assisted by elastic bands by measure Kujala score, Lysholm score, VAS-W score, VAS-U score, thigh circumference score, results of peak knee torque in isokinetic muscle strength test and peak knee moment results for isokinetic muscle strength test by using USA Biodex isokinetic muscle strength tester at 3rd week and 6th week. Before statistics, the measurement data are tested for normality and homogeneity of variance. The data meet the conditions of normal distribution and homogeneity of variance, and the statistical results are expressed in the form of mean ± standard deviation (x ± s).Count data were analyzed by the chi-square test. P \<0.05 represents a statistically significant difference. Higher values for all scores proved better intervention treatment.
