Similar dynamic tibiofemoral movements during jump‐landing and walking but distinct hamstrings strength across ACL reconstruction autograft types at mid‐term follow‐up

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Dynamic tibiofemoral movements following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with quadriceps tendon (QT) autografts have not yet been compared to other autografts. We aimed to compare dynamic anterior tibial translation (ATTd) and internal tibial rotation (ITRd) during jump‐landing and walking among patients with QT, bone ...

Greater eccentric hamstrings to concentric quadriceps strength ratio at 6 months after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is associated with reduced odds of revision within 2 years

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the association between eccentric hamstrings‐to‐concentric quadriceps strength ratio (mixed hamstrings to quadriceps [HQ]‐strength ratio) at 6 months postoperatively and revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL‐R) within 2 years of primary surgery.

Passive thigh heating improves peak force production in younger adults and early isokinetic force production in younger and older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Older adults often suffer from reduced physical capability relative to young adults, in part due to impaired muscle function. This study investigated the ergogenic effects of passive thigh heating on knee extensor torque production in healthy older versus younger adults.

Test-Retest reliability of Biodex Balance SD on physically active old people [PDF]

, 2011
The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability of the Biodex Balance System in elderly. Forty-five subjects aged 66±5.5 years old and weight 71.6±9.8 kg were tested on the Biodex Balance System. In order to calculate the reliability, the Fall

Exercise during 14 days of head down tilt bedrest attenuates motor unit impairments in older humans

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Head‐down tilt bedrest (HDBR) models the effects of mechanical unloading on neuromuscular function. The efficacy of exercise in preserving motor unit (MU) function in older adults during HDBR remains unclear. This study investigated the effects of 14‐day HDBR on MU properties in older adults and the protective role of exercise.

Impact of 14 days of head‐down bed rest and an exercise countermeasure on skeletal muscle atrophy, proteome and circulatory cytokines in older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prolonged bed rest and immobilization have deleterious effects on skeletal muscle mass and function, especially in older adults. These can lead to reduced physical capacity and quality of life. Previous experiments in younger individuals show that exercise can mitigate these effects, but evidence remains scarce and inconclusive in older adults.
