However, it is unclear which knee position during this test best isolates activity of the vastus medialis muscle. This study will measure vastus medialis and lateralis activation using surface electromyography in 30 healthy participants performing the McMurray test. Different knee flexion and rotation angles will be evaluated to determine which position optimally activates the vastus medialis. Results may enhance utilization of the McMurray test in rehabilitation programs targeting this muscle.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '45 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Healthy men and women aged 18-45 recruited from the local community.', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Healthy adults aged 18-45 years\n* No history of knee pathology\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Contraindications to EMG\n* Neurological or muscular disorders'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05965804', 'briefTitle': "Vastus Medialis Activation During McMurray's Test", 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Ahram Canadian University'}, 'officialTitle': "Muscle Activation Patterns During the McMurray's Test for Knee Examination", 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'PT-VMM-001'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'Healthy Adults', 'description': '30 healthy adult participants aged 18-45 years performing the McMurray knee examination test', 'interventionNames': ['Diagnostic Test: McMurray knee examination test']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'McMurray knee examination test', 'type': 'DIAGNOSTIC_TEST', 'description': 'The McMurray test will be performed in different knee flexion and rotation angles.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Healthy Adults']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '3221405', 'city': 'Al Ḩayy Ath Thāmin', 'state': 'Giza Governorate', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'Egypt', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Mohamed M ElMeligie, Ph.d', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'mohamed.elmeligie@acu.edu.eg', 'phone': '01064442032'}], 'facility': 'Outpatient clinic of faculty of physical therapy, Ahram Canadian University'}], 'centralContacts': [{'name': 'Mohamed M ElMeligie', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'mohamed.elmeligie@acu.edu.eg', 'phone': '+201064442032'}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Amal Fawzy, Ph.d', 'role': 'STUDY_CHAIR', 'affiliation': 'Faculty of Physical Therapy, Ahram Canadian University'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Ahram Canadian University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Lecturer of Physical Therapy and Director of Electromyography Lab', 'investigatorFullName': 'Mohamed Magdy ElMeligie', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Ahram Canadian University'}}}}
