Sex-specific kinetic and kinematic indicators of medial tibiofemoral force during walking and running

We conclude from these results that pKAM and pKFM make significant but potentially sex-specific contributions to peak medial TFJ force during walking and running. Clinically, peak medial TFJ force during walking can be estimated using peak knee flexion and adduction angles in both sexes. During running, ankle dorsiflexion at foot strike and COM oscillation are best indicators among females, while knee abduction and step length are best among males.
