| PubMedID- 23016043 | Patellofemoral pain syndrome (pfps) is often used as an umbrella term for anterior or retropalletar pain.9 many factors present in patients with pfps: patellar tracking dysfunction; decreased flexibility of the quadriceps, hamstrings, iliotibial band, and gastrocnemius; decreased strength of the quadriceps and hamstrings; joint laxity; deviations in patellar mobility and tilting; and increased quadriceps angle.38 while therapeutic interventions are performed to address these factors in the injured athlete, the significance of each factor to the onset of pfps is unclear. |
| PubMedID- 26180301 | Noehren, scholz, and davis7) studied agroup of runners with patellofemoral pain syndrome and determined that gait retraining usingreal-time feedback (visual feedback during 4 sessions for 1 week) was effective in reducingpain and improving hip mechanics during single-leg squats. |
| PubMedID- 23016077 | Patellofemoral pain syndrome (pfps) is one of the most common diagnoses among young, physically active populations, affecting 1 in 4 athletes, with more than 70% being between 16 and 25 years old.3,4 although physical therapy is an effective treatment for the majority of patients diagnosed with pfps, high rates of recurrence have been reported, with two-thirds of these patients symptomatic 1 year after initial diagnosis.4 as a result, pfps commonly leads to activity modification and extensive, prolonged medical treatment.4 additionally, a possible link between pfps and the development of patellofemoral osteoarthritis has been reported.25 given that more than 10 million athletes participate in organized high school and college sports each year2 and that 25% of them will develop pfps,3,4 an estimated 2.5 million high school and college students develop this syndrome every year. |

| PubMedID- 20082723 | Patellofemoral pain syndrome (pfp), or idiopathic pain arising from the anterior knee, is one of the most common musculoskeletal conditions affecting young active adults [1-6], and has a tendency to persist to some degree in a substantial proportion of affected individuals [7]. |
