Grip strength is not related to increased medial elbow joint-space gapping induced by repetitive pitching

JSES International, 2020
Background: Pitching induces elbow valgus stress, which can lead to an increase in medial elbow joint-space gapping when repeated. Previous basic research on the medial elbow joint shows that the contraction associated with gripping reduces medial elbow ...

The Effects of Elbow Bracing on Medial Elbow Joint Space Gapping Associated With Repetitive Throwing in High School Baseball Players

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2017
Background: Throwing athletes risk medial elbow injury from extreme valgus stress generated across the medial elbow during throwing. Braces have been developed to protect the elbow joint; however, no previous study has investigated the effects of elbow ...

Validation study of novel grading system for ulnar collateral ligament injury of the elbow with high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging

JSES International, 2021
Background: Recently, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) classification of medial ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) tears has been introduced, but little is known about the relationship between MRI grading and medial joint laxity.
