Study type | Observational |
Most athletes who undergo Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR) plan to return to some level of sporting (RTS) activity. However, rates of return to pre-injury sport are often less than might be expected and many factors influence whether individuals return to sport after this surgery. This study aims to better understand the role of meniscal lesions in RTS and to assess the advantage of the integrated evaluation with clinical, biomechanical and psychological tests to decide the correct RTS timing in non-professional athletes undergoing ACLR.

Primary | Correlation between TSK, ACL-RSI Score and mCRSQ Score | Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia is a 17 item questionnaire used to assess the subjective rating of kinesiophobia or fear of movement. A score of 17 is the lowest possible score, and indicates no kinesiophobia or negligible. A score of 68 is the highest possible score and indicates extreme fear of pain with movement.
ACL Return to Sport after Injury measures the patient's understanding of his knee. It comprises 12 questions with a score of 1 to 10 for each. It is considered that for a normal population without knee condition, the score is between 80 and 90%. modified Cincinnati Rating System Questionnaire has been designed to give your therapist information as to how your knee pain has affected your ability to manage in everyday life. It consists of 12 questions, 8 of which are included in the summary score. The total score is calculated as the sum of all questions responses, with 100 representing the best/excellent knee function, and 0 representing the worst/poor knee function. |

Primary | Correlation between clinical and psychological features | Clinical assessment consist of three tests carried on during medical check-up: i) active and passive Range Of Motion (ROM); ii) anterior drawer test; iii) knee's alignment. All these measurements will be transformed in categorical variables in order to perform chi square test. | 18-months | |
Primary | Association between clinical features and level of stability | Clinical assessment consist of three tests carried on during medical check-up: i) active and passive Range Of Motion (ROM); ii) anterior drawer test; iii) knee's alignment. All these measurements will be transformed in categorical variables.
During the stability test, the patient stands with one and two legs respectively on a free to move balance disc for 30 seconds. Subjects were instructed to stand in the centre with their arms at their sides. Level of stability is defined as an index ranking from 1 (low stability) to 5 (high stability). Eta square between categorical variables from clinical assessment and the measure outcomes of biomechanical assessment will be performed. |

Primary | Association between clinical features and limb symmetry index | Clinical assessment consist of three tests carried on during medical check-up: i) active and passive Range Of Motion (ROM); ii) anterior drawer test; iii) knee's alignment. All these measurements will be transformed in categorical variables.
During jump tests, the subject carried a belt around their hips, and the sensor was placed above the greater trochanter of the hip. Before jumping, the subject had to stand in an upright and still position. A sequence of four different jumps has been executed. The limb symmetry index (LSI) was calculated by dividing the measured value of the injured leg by the value of the non-affected side and multiplying by 100. Eta square between categorical variables from clinical assessment and the time required to perform the test will be calculated. |

Primary | Association between clinical features and Coordination Time | Clinical assessment consist of three tests carried on during medical check-up: i) active and passive Range Of Motion (ROM); ii) anterior drawer test; iii) knee's alignment. All these measurements will be transformed in categorical variables.
The subject performed one-footed jumps through the course of red (forward-backward-forward jumps) and blue (sideway jumps) hurdles, completing 16 jumps. This had to be performed as quickly as possible by jumping on one leg without a rest between the hurdles. Eta square between categorical variables from clinical assessment and the time required to perform the test will be calculated. |

Secondary | Odds ratio between presence of ML and CLIMB-based criteria | The CLIMB battery is the combination of biomechanical, clinical and psychological criteria which could allow to return to sport with the lowest possible risk of reinjury. After performing a correlation matrix and calculating collinearity using linear regression, we will calculate odds ratio as measure of association for presence-absence of meniscal lesion in the observed cohort. | 18-months |
