Tokyo, Dec. 6 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000059986) titled 'Evaluation of the Effect of a 3-Week Lateral Band Walk Intervention on Dynamic Knee Valgus in Adult Females' on Dec. 5.

Study Type: Interventional

Study Design: Basic Design - Parallel Randomization - Randomized Blinding - Open -no one is blinded Control - No treatment

Primary Sponsor: Institute - Juntendo University

Condition: Condition - Dynamic Knee Valgus Classification by malignancy - Others Genomic information - NO

Objective: Narrative objectives1 - The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a 3-week Lateral Band Walk intervention on knee valgus angle during single-leg drop landing in adult females with dynamic knee valgus. Basic objectives2 - Efficacy

Intervention: Interventions/Control_1 - Participants will perform a home-based Lateral Band Walk exercise using a mini-band for 3 weeks. Each session will last approximately 10 minutes, with a target of at least 15 sessions during the intervention period. The exercise is performed by placing a mini-band around the thighs and walking laterally while maintaining slight knee flexion. Prior to the intervention, the researcher will provide in-person instruction on proper form, and weekly follow-up interviews and video submissions will be used to monitor adherence and exercise technique. Interventions/Control_2 - No-intervention control (usual activity group)

Eligibility: Age-lower limit - 18 years-old = Gender - Female Key inclusion criteria - Healthy adult females who demonstrate relatively greater dynamic knee valgus during a screening single-leg squat assessment. Key exclusion criteria - Individuals with a history of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

Those who do not meet the criteria in the screening assessment

Those who cannot safely perform a single-leg squat or single-leg drop landing due to pain, discomfort, or musculoskeletal disorders

Those who are judged to have difficulty maintaining participation throughout the study period Target Size - 36

Recruitment Status: Recruitment status - Open public recruiting Date of protocol fixation - 2025 Year 09 Month 30 Day Date of IRB - 2025 Year 09 Month 30 Day Anticipated trial start date - 2025 Year 12 Month 05 Day Last follow-up date - 2028 Year 03 Month 31 Day
