Hip abductors and thigh muscles strength ratios and their relation to electromyography amplitude during split squat and walking lunge exercises

open access: yesActa Gymnica, 2015
Background: The hip abductors (HAB), quadriceps (Q) and hamstrings (H) reciprocal strength ratios are predictors of electromyography (EMG) amplitude during load carrying walking at moderate intensity.

The Assisted Nordic Hamstring Curl

open access: yesStrength & Conditioning Journal, 2015
Assisted nordic hamstring curls provide a mechanism for assisting the lower phases of a nordic hamstring curl, allowing training at increased hamstring muscle length positions and the performance of more repetitions. This exercise may be useful to target the specific muscle lengths or fatigue conditions at which injuries occur.

Older age, higher BMI, female sex and meniscal repair are predictors of inferior patient‐reported outcomes 1 year after ACL reconstruction

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To identify predictors of inferior patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) 1 year after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and to examine whether these predictors differ by sex. We hypothesised that older age, female sex, and meniscectomy are associated with inferior PROs.

Older age and a non‐sporting injury mechanism are associated with re‐injury and the need for revision surgery over a minimum 2‐year follow‐up following proximal hamstring tendon repair

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate revision rates and factors associated with the need for revision following proximal hamstring tendon repair. Methods This study included 243 patients who underwent proximal hamstring tendon repair due to an acute (n = 176) or chronic (n = 67) tear. Complications, re‐injuries and re‐operations were reviewed.

Localized hamstring bioimpedance in marathon runners is related to muscle high-energy enzyme serum levels and predicts race time

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology
Introduction: The aim was to analyze the response of serum levels of inflammatory, high-energy muscle biomarkers and hamstring localized bioimpedance (L-BIA) measurements to marathon running and to ascertain whether they correlate with each other or with

Comparing Outcomes Between the Over-the-Top and All-Epiphyseal Techniques for Physeal-Sparing ACL Reconstruction: A Narrative Review. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A variety of techniques are used for physeal-sparing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction; however, there is no clear consensus on the ideal surgical technique, the frequency of complications, and how to best avoid growth disturbance.

Transitioning between medical equipment suppliers does not affect ACL reconstruction outcomes in a high‐volume setting

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate whether changing medical equipment suppliers in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) influences surgical time, revision rates and subjective outcomes. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted using data from the Swedish Knee Ligament Registry (SKLR).

A randomized controlled trial of PEEK versus titanium interference screws for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with 2-year follow-up [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Purpose: To compare the clinical performance of ACL reconstruction with PEEK and titanium interference screws at 2 years and to evaluate a novel method of measuring tunnel volume. Study Design: Randomized controlled trial; Level of evidence, 1.

Surgical caseload and annual volume influence cartilage treatment strategies in primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate how surgeon and clinic volume, along with patient‐, injury‐ and surgery‐related factors, influence cartilage injury management in primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Methods This retrospective cohort study analysed cartilage treatment (debridement, microfracture, other methods or left in situ) in ...

Anatomical Relationships of the Proximal Attachment of the Hamstring Muscles with Neighboring Structures: From Ultrasound, Anatomical and Histological Findings to Clinical Implications

open access: yesDiagnostics
Background: Injuries of the proximal attachment of the hamstring muscles are common. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship of the proximal attachment of the hamstring muscles with neighboring structures comprehensively. Methods: A total
