Age‐specific over‐the‐top techniques for physeal sparing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in skeletally immature patients: Current concepts for prepubescents to older adolescents

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Tailored surgical strategies for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in skeletally immature patients are presented, emphasizing techniques to minimize growth plate damage and ensure stability. As ACL injuries in youth increase, delaying surgery can lead to joint damage and poor recovery outcomes.

The development of hamstring strength over the course of a simulated soccer match.

PLoS ONE
Hamstring strain injuries are a prevalent burden in soccer. Low strength, muscle fatigue, and inter-limb differences in hamstring strength are associated with hamstring injury risk.

Short graft, short tunnel ACL reconstruction with single hamstring and internal brace leads to comparable outcomes to conventional double hamstring technique: A retrospective study. [PDF]

J Exp Orthop
Abstract Purpose The purpose of our study was to compare (1) ACL graft healing, (2) patient‐reported outcome, and (3) complications after short graft (length < 65 mm), short tunnel (femoral tunnel < 20 mm) single hamstring ACL reconstruction with an internal brace (SGST‐ACLR) technique and double hamstring autograft conventional ACL reconstruction (CON‐

Knee laxity, joint hypermobility, femoral anteversion, hamstring extensibility and navicular drop as risk factors for non‐contact ACL injury in female athletes: A 4.5‐year prospective cohort study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate whether six selected anatomical variables were associated with non‐contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in female team sport athletes. Methods Two hundred eighty‐seven female athletes (age 13–38 at baseline) from basketball, floorball, ice hockey and volleyball completed a baseline physical examination ...

Parametric Analysis Using the Finite Element Method to Investigate Prosthetic Interface Stresses for Persons with Trans-tibial Amputation [PDF]

, 1996
A finite element (FE) model of the below-knee residual limb and prosthetic socket was created to investigate the effects of parameter variations on the interface stress distribution during static stance. This model was based upon geometric approximations

Knee muscle strength and movement biomechanics in individuals with and without knee pain after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A cross‐sectional study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Anterior cruciate ligament injury increases the risk of knee osteoarthritis, possibly via early onset of knee pain and changes in musculoskeletal function. This study compared knee muscle strength and movement biomechanics during walking and forward lunge between individuals with and without knee pain after anterior cruciate ligament ...

Age is not a primary risk factor for ACL injury—A comprehensive review of ACL injury and reinjury risk factors confounded by young patient age

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Revision surgery after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL‐R) is hypothesized to be the result of an interplay between factors associated with the anatomy, physiological characteristics and environment of the patient. The multifactorial nature of revision ACL‐R risk is difficult to quantify, and evidence regarding the independent ...
