Poor knee strength is associated with higher incidence of knee injury in adolescent female football players: The Karolinska football injury cohort

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the association between common measures of trunk and lower extremity range of motion (ROM), strength, the results of one‐leg jump tests at baseline and the incidence of subsequent substantial knee injuries in adolescent female football players.

Lack of association between revision ACL reconstruction and preoperative, intraoperative and post‐operative factors at primary ACL reconstruction in children and adolescents

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate factors associated with revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) within 5 years of primary ACLR in children and adolescents. Methods Children and adolescents (age <20 years at surgery) who underwent primary hamstring tendon ACLR at the Capio Artro Clinic, Stockholm, Sweden, between January 2005 and December

Sagittal Plane Biomechanics Cannot Injure the ACL During Sidestep Cutting [PDF]

, 2004
Background. Knee joint sagittal plane forces are a proposed mechanism of anterior cruciate ligament injury during sport movements such as sidestep cutting. Ligament force magnitudes for these movements however, remain unknown.

Tibiofemoral and patellofemoral joint 3D-kinematics in patients with posterior cruciate ligament deficiency compared to healthy volunteers [PDF]

, 2012
Background: The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) plays an important role in maintaining physiological kinematics and function of the knee joint. To date mainly in-vitro models or combined magnetic resonance and fluoroscopic systems have been used for ...

Evaluation of static and dynamic balance in athletes with anterior cruciate ligament injury – A controlled study

Clinics
OBJECTIVES: Anterior cruciate ligament injury leads to adaptive responses to maintain postural control. However, there is no consensus regarding whether leg dominance also affects postural control in athletes with anterior cruciate ligament injury.

A flat posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction restores native knee kinematics, comparable to a double‐bundle reconstruction—A biomechanical robotic investigation

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To biomechanically evaluate a flat posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction utilizing rectangular femoral bone tunnels. Methods Eight fresh‐frozen human knee specimens were tested in a six‐degrees‐of‐freedom robotic test setup. In each testing step, a force‐controlled test protocol was performed, including 89 N posterior tibial

Incidence and Prevention of Injury of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament in Females [PDF]

, 2011
According to the American College of Sports Medicine, women are two to eight times more likely to sustain an anterior cruciate ligament injury than men at the same level of performance. This high incidence of women with an ACL injury is thought to be due

Meniscal forces and knee kinematics are affected by tibial slope modifying high tibial osteotomy

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To quantify the effect of increasing the posterior tibial slope (PTS) on knee kinematics and the resultant medial and lateral meniscal forces. Methods In this controlled laboratory study, a 6 degrees of freedom (DOF) robotic testing system was used to apply external loading conditions to seven fresh‐frozen human cadaveric knees: (1 ...
