Preoperative and postoperative risk factors for arthrogenic muscle inhibition in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A retrospective study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose This study aimed to identify preoperative and postoperative risk factors associated with the development of arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI) in patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The hypothesis was that distinct risk factors contribute to the occurrence of preoperative and postoperative AMI ...

Allograft use and fixed suspensory fixation increase revision risk in multiple revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A Swedish knee ligament registry study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to assess the association between surgical‐related variables, revision‐free survival and knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) following multiple revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (mrACLR) using data from a national knee ligament registry.

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.

Stretch‐shortening cycle force–time and power–time waveform analysis indicates limitations of the contralateral limb benchmark in athletes with ACL injury

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Unilateral countermovement jump (CMJsingle) testing is commonly used after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) to assess stretch‐shortening cycle (SSC) function and return‐to‐sport readiness. However, the impact of ACLR on contralateral limb SSC function is poorly understood, which may impact the utility of the ...

Quadriceps malalignment is strongly associated with recurrent patellofemoral instability in native knees

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Patellofemoral instability (PFI) has been associated with multiple anatomical risk factors. The recent development of accurate quadriceps muscle measurements using three‐dimensional imaging techniques have demonstrated that quadriceps alignment is highly variable and frequently leads to a lateralised force vector on the patella.

Progressive fibrosis of the quadriceps muscle

, 2011
Background. Fibrosis of the quadriceps in children is a frequently reported pathology which is associated with antibiotics having been injected into the thigh. This study presents a series of patients having a common background of having had a single pentavalent vaccine dose or injectable vitamin K and presenting progressive fibrosis of the quadriceps ...
