Effects of A Single Balance Training Session on Neural Excitability in Individuals With Chronic Ankle Instability
CONCLUSION: After a single session of balance training, individuals with CAI initiated increases in spinal reflex modulation and corticospinal excitability of the soleus. Thus, individuals with CAI who undergo balance training exhibit positive neural adaptations that are linked to improvements in balance performance.PMID:37558224 | DOI:10.1123/jsr.2023-0024 (Source: Journal of Sport Rehabilitation)

Sport Specialization's Impact on Female Adolescent Athletes' Lower-Extremity Neuromuscular Control: A Critically Appraised Topic
J Sport Rehabil. 2023 Aug 9:1-6. doi: 10.1123/jsr.2022-0278. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCLINICAL SCENARIO: Nearly 60 million youth ages 6-18 participate in athletics within the United States. Over the last 30 years, the outlook on youth sport participation has drastically changed, resulting in an increased emphasis on performance and college sport participation. These evolving expectations have created a sense of perfectionism, demanding more time and energy to be placed into a single sport, resulting in an increased prevalence of sport specialization, and consequently, an increased rate of injury.CLINICAL QUESTION: Wha...

Return to Sport and Clinical Outcomes Following Osteochondral Autograft Transplantation in Baseball Players and Gymnasts With Unstable Osteochondritis Dissecans: A Critically Appraised Topic
J Sport Rehabil. 2023 Aug 9:1-6. doi: 10.1123/jsr.2022-0446. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCLINICAL SCENARIO: Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the capitellum is a condition occurring at the elbow and often seen in both baseball players and gymnasts due to the repetitive loading of the radiocapitellar joint. Treatment options for OCD vary and are dependent on lesion presentation, elbow motion, and growth plate maturity. OCD lesions categorized as unstable can be treated with an osteochondral autograft transplantation surgery (OATS).FOCUSED CLINICAL QUESTION: In an adolescent population, what are the return to sport rates ...

Effect of Low-Load Blood Flow Restriction Training on Patients With Functional Ankle Instability: A Randomized Controlled Trial
CONCLUSIONS: Over 6 weeks, LL-BFR training was as effective as HLT in improving ankle muscle strength, muscle thickness, and balance in FAI patients, but LL-BFR training improved the ankle eversion muscle strength and dynamic balance more than HLT did in the early stages of the intervention. This finding will provide a new intervention strategy for the clinical rehabilitation of FAI patients.PMID:37558223 | DOI:10.1123/jsr.2022-0462 (Source: Journal of Sport Rehabilitation)

Low-Intensity Resistance Exercise Based on Myofascial Chains Alters the Lower-Limb Tension and Improves Health Status in Female Individuals With Knee Osteoarthritis
CONCLUSIONS: The results supported that knee OA patients present imbalanced myofascial tension of lower limbs. LIRET based on myofascial chains appears to decrease pain, and stiffness, and improve physical function of patients with knee OA and change their lower-limb tension.PMID:37527818 | DOI:10.1123/jsr.2022-0367 (Source: Journal of Sport Rehabilitation)

Comparing the Effect of Exercises With Different Gluteal-to-Tensor Fasciae Latae Activation Index in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain
CONCLUSIONS: Findings indicate the statistically and clinically superior effectiveness of exercises with a gluteal-to-TFL muscle activation index above 50 in the reduction of pain and disability. Based on the clinical significance of exercises with a gluteal-to-TFL muscle activation index above 50 for improving ROMs, utilizing specific exercises that more activated gluteal muscle compared to TFL is recommended for patient with restricted lower limbs' ROMs.PMID:37507116 | DOI:10.1123/jsr.2022-0344 (Source: Journal of Sport Rehabilitation)
