Hamstring shortening in healthy adults

Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation, 2002
Hamstring shortening (HS) causes changes in the posture and walking ability in spastic children, however, there are no studies defining the abnormalities in patellar alignment in individuals with HS.Twenty-five patients with a primary complaint of anterior knee pain, having HS detected at physical examination, and 11 healthy individuals without any HS ...

Hamstring Muscles: Architecture and Innervation [PDF]

Cells Tissues Organs, 2005
Knowledge of the anatomical organization of the hamstring muscles is necessary to understand their functions, and to assist in the development of accurate clinical and biomechanical models. The hamstring muscles were examined by dissection in six embalmed human lower limbs with the purpose of clarifying their gross morphology.

Wearable technology identifies differences in change of direction kinetics and kinematics in soccer players with a history of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study investigates change of direction (COD) performance and biomechanics using wearable technology in athletes with a history of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL‐R) compared to healthy controls. Methods A within and between subjects' cross‐sectional design was used.

Sonographic landmarks in hamstring muscles [PDF]

Skeletal Radiology, 2019
The ultrasound examination of hamstrings inspires respect due to the connective complexity of their structures, particularly for sonographers who are not used to this kind of study. Therefore, it is important to know the specific ultrasound reference points that facilitate the location of the hamstring structures, dividing them into four areas of ...

Synthetic augmentation in ACL reconstruction may reduce re‐rupture rates and increase return‐to‐sport rates: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Synthetic augmentation (SA) in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) aims to enhance graft durability, but its benefits remain unclear. To evaluate whether SA in ACLR improves return‐to‐sport (RTS) rates, reduces graft failure, enhances patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) and varies in effectiveness across materials and ...

HAMSTRING ARCHITECTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL ADAPTATIONS FOLLOWING LONG VS. SHORT MUSCLE LENGTH ECCENTRIC TRAINING

Frontiers in Physiology, 2016
Most common preventive eccentric-based exercises, such as Nordic hamstring do not include any hip flexion. So, the elongation stress reached is lower than during the late swing phase of sprinting.
