Lee SP. Females with patellofemoral pain had diminished hip abduction and external rotation strength and decreased dynamic stability. This study also showed efficacy of the above DonJoy SERF brace that normalized medial-lateral dynamic stability. Would say that we should all be looking into the SERF braces. • Patellofemoral joint stress during weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing exercises. Ho KY. Authors recommend squatting to avoid 75-90 degrees of flexion, open chain knee extension with ankle weight from 0-15 degrees. Nothing new here but then they suggest that open chain knee extension in a machine can be performed from 0-90 degrees. Seems to contradict, I would have to see the entire study before recommending these guidelines.
