Filter by:Basketball is a team sport where aerobic and anaerobic performance is important. Knowing how to reduce common injuries and risk is important when designing a warm-up exercise program for basketball. Various warm-up programs, including neuromuscular training, are thought to reduce the incidence of lower extremity injuries and improve athletic performance in athletes. There are several neuromuscular training programs designed to improve joint position sense, increase joint stability, develop protective joint reflexes, and ultimately prevent lower extremity injuries. In the literature, there is a need for studies comparing the effects of various warm-up programs applied to adolescent licensed basketball players on injury risks and basketball-specific sportive performance parameters. Therefore, the aim of the study is to examine the effects of different exercise programs on injury risk and sportive performance in adolescent basketball players.
Speed skating is a sport in which there´s a lack of epidemiological studies. In line with the well-established model of sports injury prevention research proffered by van Mechelen, the first stage in this process is establishing the extent of the problem i.e. injury incidence, severity and burden. Through an online survey filled by semiprofessional athletes, it is posible to obtain all this important information. This way, it will be possible to fulfill a gap in the literature and take action in the near future in order to reduce the prevalence of injuries in this sport.
Introduction: Low back pain is a musculoskeletal disorder that is associated with symptoms such as pain, limitation of joint range and postural problems in athletes. Methods: The study design is a randomized controlled clinical trial with a minimum of 35 elite gymnasts with back pain. Two postural treatments will be implemented, Mezieres Method and Isostretching to verify if there is improvement of back pain in gymnasts and to compare both procedures. Discussion: This trial could generate a greater understanding of the importance of posture related to low back pain and its possible treatments.
This study aims to precisely describe epidemiology of injuries than occur during practice of climbing in artificial structure. Each participant will complete questionnaires in order to identify injuries. The first questionnaire will be completed at the moment of the inclusion and the second questionnaire will be completed if participant has injuries every 3 months until month 12.
The purpose of this project is to investigate the injury panorama of acute and overuse injuries in women and men who regularly participate padel. The intention is to provide insights on injury prevalence, injury location, injury consequences, gender differences and risk factors . This study will be conducted as a retrospective cohort study where the participants consist of female and male padle players, both at the recreational and competition level, with at least 6 months' experience in the sport. The information from this project can be valuable in the work of identifying risk factors for padle injuries and injury prevention strategies.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of the dry needling technique and diacutaneous fibrolysis technique in teres major muscles on pain, range of motion, strength extensibility and muscular properties of the soft tissues of the shoulder in athletes with shoulder pain.
Purpose/reason of the research: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is an important ligament in maintaining knee function. In patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, concomitant intra-articular lesions are usually seen. It has been reported that approximately 43% of all patients with ACL tears have associated lateral or medial meniscal injuries. Injury associated with a tear of the meniscotibial ligament in the posterior horn of the medial meniscus is defined as a RAMP lesion. Because the RAMP lesion is located within the posteromedial "blind spot", it has historically been underdiagnosed. It has been reported that 9-17% of all ACL tears have RAMP lesions. RAMP lesions have been found to increase the force on the ACL. Injury to the meniscotibial ligaments has been shown to increase rotational instability of the knee. Based on the available literature, there is a discrepancy between authors regarding the repair of a RAMP lesion during an acute ACL surgery. In chronic ACL rupture, some authors have suggested that the RAMP lesion has a suitable biological environment for healing. thinks. However, excessive mobility of the meniscocapsular junction has been reported in RAMP lesions during knee flexion and extension. It has been suggested that these lesions are different from other peripheral tears and are not suitable for spontaneous healing. It is suggested that meniscal RAMP lesion repair will be the most effective approach. Rehabilitation after repair of a RAMP lesion depends on whether the repair is performed concurrently with ACL surgery. When performed with an ACL surgery, the process is followed according to the ACL rehabilitation protocol. Even if the functionality of the knee is fully restored in the post-ACL surgery period, not all patients can return to their previous level of sportive performance due to various psychological, social and physiological factors. In the literature, different information can be found as criteria for returning to sports after ACL surgery. The rate of returning to sports was reported as 65-88% in patients with ACL reconstruction, and 19-82% in patients who were followed conservatively. However, there are few studies with short- or long-term follow-up after the identification and treatment of RAMP lesions. Accordingly, our aim in this study is to comprehensively evaluate the return to sports of participants who have undergone isolated anterior cruciate ligament surgery and who have had simultaneous RAMP lesion repair with anterior cruciate ligament surgery. This assessment will provide the opportunity to examine functional capacity, balance, psychological state, activity level and pain with different measurement methods. Material and method of the research: The study will consist of 2 groups, including 12 participants who have undergone isolated ACL surgery and 12 participants who have had simultaneous RAMP lesion repair in Istanbul Medipol Mega Hospitals Complex Orthopedics and Traumatology Unit, with a total of 24 participants.
This study evaluates if the physiotherapy treatment based on combination of therapeutic exercise program and ultrasound-guided PNE on chronic soleous injuries may cause changes in pain, dorsal flexion of the ankle and muscle fatigue in female dance
Roller Hockey is a sport played on a 40*20 metres rink characterized by combined periods of high intensity and short breaks, there´s a lack of epidemiological studies in this field. In line with the well-established model of sports injury prevention research proffered by van Mechelen, the first stage in this process is establishing the extent of the problem i.e. injury incidence, severity and burden. Through an online survey filled by semiprofessional athletes, it is posible to obtain all this important information.

In a 20-year retrospective study, all skiers and snowboarders with a peroneal nerve injury at the fibular head treated surgically at the Department of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery at the Medical University of Innsbruck, Austria, were included. Covering a period from 1999/2000 to 2018/2019.
