Filter by:The study aims: - to observe a population particularly exposed by the past to brain trauma and concussion: Motorsport Pilots who are retired from a professional practice of motor sport; - to report results of their neuro-cognitive evaluations, - to determine if specific profiles emerge. - to evaluate potential consequences of these traumas' history at a cerebral, physical and psychological level. - to evaluate the contribution of the various examinations performed as part of a concussion assessment in routine care (eye-tracking, brain imaging, Neuropsychological Assessment).
Study Design: Evaluation of the psychometric properties of a translated, culturally adapted questionnaire. Objective: Translating, culturally adapting, and validating the Italian version of the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT-I), allowing its use with Italian-speaking population to monitor both state of health and functional limitation deriving from ankle instability problems, in order to evaluate the degree of severity, without using the comparison with the opposite limb. Summary of Background Data: Lateral ankle sprain is the most common injury during sports activity, often cause of disability and of numerous complications following repeated episodes, including chronic ankle instability (CAI), which affects 32% to 74% of the aforementioned cases. Growing attention is devoted to standardized outcome measures to improve interventions for injured population. A translated form of the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT), a simple and specific tool for diagnosing chronic lateral ankle instability with excellent psychometric characteristics of both reliability and validity, has never been validated within the Italian speaking population.
Background: To compare the pre-season clinical measures with shoulder rotator strength and range of motion between bilateral (swimmers) and unilateral (badminton players) overhead athletes. Design: Prospective cohort study Participants: 42 athletes were enrolled including 24 elite badminton players and 18 elite swimmers Independent variables: A pre-season visit consisted in clinical and isokinetic shoulder strength testing. Clinical testing consisted in the shoulder range of motion (ROM) measurements aIsokinetic internal and external rotator shoulder muscles strength was tested at 60. Conventional and functional (eccentric-to-concentric) ratios (FR) were calculated.
In our hypothesis, auricular acupoint stimulation might improve the attention and heart rate variability in archery athletes. The meridian activities regarding the attention and action in Chinese medicine systems might be influenced.
Ankle sprains are common injuries in active young people. Most of these injuries recovery quickly on their own, do not require imaging, and do better with early motion and rehabilitation. High ankle sprains and fractures are much less common but more serious. They may require imaging and more treatment.
This study was planned to investigate the relationship between the risk of injury and posture in wrestlers. The study will be included male wrestlers. The spine posture and flexibility of the athletes will be measured during standing position with the Idiag M360® brand Spinal Mouse (SM), while the overall body posture will be measured from the anterior and lateral sides using the New York Posture Analysis Method (NYPAM). Injury risks of the athletes will be evaluated by Functional Movement Screen (FMS) which was consisting of seven basic movement patterns.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of dynamic tape in prevent shoulder muscle fatigue.
Background: To assess the impact of pre-season clinical measures and rotator muscles strength on the risk of significant shoulder injury (SSI) in elite badminton players Design: Prospective cohort study Participants: Nineteen elite adolescents badminton players were included and followed over the badminton season (from september 2018 to may 2019 and/or from september 2019 to may 2020) . Independent variables: A pre-season visit consisted in clinical and isokinetic shoulder strength testing. Clinical testing consisted in the shoulder range of motion (ROM) measurements and the table-to-acromion distance (TAD)Isokinetic internal and external rotator shoulder muscles strength was tested at 60 and 240°/s. Conventional and functional (eccentric-to-concentric) ratios (FR) were calculated. SSI collection was performed by an experienced sport physician.
Evaluating the use of peri-operative blood flow restriction therapy surrounding anterior cruciate ligament tear
Background: To assess the impact of pre-season clinical measures and rotator muscles strength on the risk of significant shoulder injury (SSI) in elite adolescent badminton players Design: Prospective cohort study Participants: Nine elite adolescents badminton players were included and followed from September 2018 to May 2019. Independent variables: A pre-season visit consisted in clinical and isokinetic shoulder strength testing. Isokinetic internal and external rotator shoulder muscles strength was tested at 60, 120 and 240°/s. Conventional and functional (eccentric-to-concentric) ratios (FR) were calculated. SSI collection was performed by an experienced sport physician.
