Argell San Jose shows reduced peak patellofemoral contact force in ACLR patients at the end of their rehab, largely a function of lower quads force and peak knee flexion angle More signs that underloading is a cause of OA after ACLR? journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/03… #OpenAccess

Patellofemoral Joint (PFJ) contact force is reduced following ACL reconstruction 🦵 This recent paper from Argell San Jose's PhD studies explored PFJ contact force in athletes post ACL reconstruction with return-to-sport clearance A thread 👇

Looking forward to the #IOCprev2024 conference and presenting our symposium “From the lab to the field: Addressing the challenge of hamstring injury prevention and performance in sport”. with Jack Hickey Nirav Maniar and Prince Caroline

"Hamstring Strain Injury Risk Factors in Australian Football Change over the Course of the Season" New in Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise Risk factors were different across the season in AFL, with non-mod factors = pre-season injuries. In-season = modifiable factors journals.lww.com/acsm-msse/abst… 👇👇

Tyler Collings David John Saxby Benji Dutaillis Matt Bourne We can consider which muscles we want to target to unload the ACL. Prior work which shows both knee spanning and non-spanning muscles are important. While considering local muscles is great, we should expand our thinking. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35437711/

Second time today,Nirav Maniar’s work making an appearance in a symposium. This time establishing the extent of the problem in men’s sport.

External forces when DECELERATING can be huge compared to ACCELERATING❗️ What about comparison of internal joint forces ❓ DECELERATION (~5m Reactive) = 📌Hip Extensor = 164% Greater 📌Knee Extensor = 39% Greater ACCELERATION = 📌 Ankle Plantar Flexor = 63% Greater

Nice new study from David Opar Nirav Maniar et al. Lower limb joint mechanics during maximal accelerative and decelerative running journals.lww.com/acsm-msse/abst…

Delighted to share my first PhD publication, where we review lower limb aponeurosis structure, function, adaptation and injury. We identify the calf and hamstrings as useful case examples and provide directions for future work in this space (Open Access) sportsmedicine-open.springeropen.com/articles/10.11…
