Patellar tracking is defined as the motion of the patella relative to the femur or femoral groove
on knee flexion and extension. Abnormalities of tracking (maltracking) are thought to relate …

… Shih and colleagues 67 compared myopic progression rates in Taiwanese schoolchildren
in both urban and rural areas. The mean myopic progression in primary schoolchildren (7–12 …

Patellofemoral motion is significant clinically, yet in the literature many different methods and
terminologies are used, thus making comparison between studies difficult. We review and …

Introduction: To determine time trends in myopia over a 20-year period in Taiwan, we conducted
5 nationwide surveys pertaining to the ocular refraction of schoolchildren in 1983, 1986, …

PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the effect of elastic taping on kinematics, muscle
activity and strength of the scapular region in baseball players with shoulder impingement. …

Purpose In order to understand and update the prevalence of myopia in Taiwan, a
nationwide survey was performed in 1995. Methods We stratified the cluster sampling by …

Although 1% atropine effectively slows myopia progression, it is associated with adverse
effects, including photophobia, blurred near vision, and poor compliance. We investigated …

Purpose: This randomized clinical trial assessed the treatment effects of atropine and/or
multi‐focal lenses in decreasing the progression rate of myopia in children. Methods: Two …

AIMS To further understand the effect of refractive error on the corneal dimensions and function.
METHODS Corneal curvature, corneal thickness, and axial length measurements were …

Purpose. Myopic progression has been noted, especially during the period of puberty. It is
interesting to investigate whether myopia will progress after the age of puberty and at what …
