The isometric and isokinetic knee extension and flexion muscle strength profile of elite soccer players

BMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation
Background This study aimed to further complete normative data sets for the strength profile of the thigh in soccer players by performing isometric and isokinetic measurements in a large sample per player position.

Rectus femoris tendon morphometry and practical landmarks for harvesting: A cadaveric study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To perform a qualitative and quantitative cadaveric analysis of the rectus femoris (RF) tendon to determine its suitability as a standalone autograft for knee ligament reconstruction and to identify consistent anatomical landmarks for safe and reproducible harvest.

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 ...

Impact of hamstring versus quadriceps tendon graft on thigh muscle strength and surface electromyography activity after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare quadriceps tendon (QT) and hamstring tendon (HT) autografts regarding isometric thigh muscle strength, surface electromyography (sEMG) activity and clinical outcomes following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).

Quadriceps tendon autograft is not inferior to bone‐patellar tendon‐bone or hamstring autograft in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in terms of subjective patient‐reported outcomes: Two‐year results of a multicenter randomised controlled study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the effectiveness of quadriceps tendon (QT) compared to bone‐patellar tendon‐bone (BPTB) and hamstring tendon (HT) autografts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) regarding patient‐reported outcomes 2 years postoperatively.

Nutrition and rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A systematic review

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose As the impact of nutrition on rehabilitation and return to sport (RTS) after ACL reconstruction (ACLR) remains largely unexplored, this review aimed to review the current evidence on the role of nutrition in rehabilitation outcomes for ACLR patients, with as ultimate goal a safer and more successful RTS.

Reliability of isokinetic knee strength measurements in children: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Measuring muscle strength using isokinetic dynamometry allows evaluating and comparing normal and sick children, establishing recovery and rehabilitation goals, and quantitatively monitoring the course of a disease and the response to treatment.

Biologic gracilis augmentation with iliotibial band enhances recovery and lowers complications in ACL reconstruction compared with hamstring plus lateral tenodesis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare the iliotibial band autograft biologically augmented with gracilis (ITBAG) technique with a hamstring tendon autograft combined with extra‐articular lateral tenodesis using fascia lata (HT‐LET), in terms of (1) return‐to‐sport rates, (2) patient‐reported functional outcomes and (3) complication rates.

Knee extensor strength is associated with pressure pain thresholds in adults with fibromyalgia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Individuals with fibromyalgia (FM) have lower muscle strength and lower pressure pain thresholds (PPT). The primary aim of this study was to determine the associations between muscle strength and PPT in adults with FM to test the hypothesis that greater ...
