Angle specific analysis of hamstrings and quadriceps isokinetic torque identify residual deficits in soccer players following ACL reconstruction: a longitudinal investigation

 Analysing the isokinetic curve is important following ACL reconstruction as there may be deficits in torque production at specific points throughout the range of motion. We examined isokinetic (60°.s-1) torque-angle characteristics in 27 male soccer players (24.5 ± 3.9 years) at 3 time-points (17 ±...

Description
Summary: Analysing the isokinetic curve is important following ACL reconstruction as there may be deficits in torque production at specific points throughout the range of motion. We examined isokinetic (60°.s-1) torque-angle characteristics in 27 male soccer players (24.5 ± 3.9 years) at 3 time-points (17 ± 5; 25 ± 6; and 34 ± 7 weeks post-surgery). Extracted data included knee flexor and extensor peak torque, conventional hamstrings: quadriceps (H/Q) ratio, and angle-specific torque using Statistical Parametric Mapping (SPM). There were significant involved limb increases in extension peak torque at each assessment (p
