Is quadriceps strength associated with patellofemoral joint loading after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction?
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To test whether quadriceps strength is associated with measures of patellofemoral (PF) joint loading during running and hopping in people after an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SETTING: Biomechanics laboratory. PARTICIPANTS: Sixty-five participants (24 women; 41 men) 1-2 years post-ACLR. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Peak isometric quadriceps strength for the surgical limb was measured using a dynamometer. Motion analysis and ground reaction force data were combined with musculoskeletal modelling to measure PF joint loading variables for the reconstructed knee (peak knee flexion angle; peak/impulse of the PF joint contact force; time to peak PF joint contact force) during the stance phase of running and during the landing phase of a standardised forward hop. Linear regression analysis (adjusting for age and sex) assessed the association between quadriceps strength and PF joint loading variables. RESULTS: = 0.159). CONCLUSIONS: A strong link between quadriceps strength and PF joint loading was not evident in people 1-2 years post-ACLR.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
