Adjunctive Effects of Heat vs Contrast Therapy With Otago Exercises on Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the adjunctive effects of heat therapy and contrast therapy when combined with the Otago exercise program in individuals with patellofemoral pain syndrome aged 18 to 40 years. The study aims to assess whether these interventions can help reduce pain and swelling, improve knee range of motion, and decrease functional limitations associated with patellofemoral pain syndrome. Researchers will compare two groups one receiving heat therapy with the Otago exercise program and the other receiving contrast therapy with the Otago exercise program to see which approach provides greater improvement in outcomes. Participants will undergo regular supervised sessions that include the assigned thermal therapy and a structured set of Otago exercises targeting lower limb strength, balance, and mobility.

JUPITER 4.0 - Risk Factors for Failure of Isolated Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the outcomes of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction for the treatment of recurrent patellar instability. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What are the risk factors for recurrent patellar instability after MPFL reconstruction? * What functional outcomes do patients report after MPFL reconstruction? Participants undergoing MPFL reconstruction will answer survey questions about their knee and activity level 1 year and 2 years after surgery.

The Effectiveness of Two Physiotherapy Protocols in the Treatment of Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome
Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is one of the most common causes of anterior knee pain in young and active individuals. PFPS is characterized by anterior knee pain. The treatment of choice is conservative management. However, there is still lack of widely accepted physiotherapeutic strategies aimed at alleviating patellofemoral pain. The outcomes of conservative treatment remain unsatisfactory. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of two physiotherapy protocols based on manual therapy and muscle training in the treatment of patellofemoral pain

Mid- and Long-term Evaluation of the Results of Patients Undergoing Spinal Cord Stimulation With Microfractures + BST CarGel in the Treatment of Patellofemoral Chondral Lesions of the Knee
The study consists of 3 phases (Identification of eligible patients, follow-up by telephone or telemedicine platform and the collection of study-specific clinical data of enrolled patients): * Identification by trained medical personnel of subjects who meet the study inclusion criteria. * Once the patient's Informed Consent has been obtained, the study-specific questionnaires will be submitted. * Clinical score data will be collected from the questionnaires conducted at mid- and long-term follow-up of patients enrolled in the study. The data collected during the long-term follow-up will be used to evaluate the time course of the results obtained after treatment of osteochondral lesions of the patellar cartilage by spinal cord stimulation with microfractures
