Validity of the SHD-LESS Scale After ACL Reconstruction
After anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL-R), Single Hop for Distance (SHD) performance aids in decision-making, particularly for return-to-sport assessments. However, asymmetrical landing kinematics are common after ACL-R, even with symmetrical performances, and increase the risk of re-injury. To support clinical practice, several qualitative scales have been developed as valid and …
Effect of Physical Therapy and/or Platelet Rich Plasma Injection in People With Knee Cruciate Ligament Injuries
Background The anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) , one of the major ligaments in the knee joint which connects the posterior aspect of the lateral femoral condyle to the anterior intercondylar area of the tibia. It plays a crucial role in maintaining knee joint stability, preventing excessive rotation of the tibia, and …
The Faroese Knee Cohort: Etiology and Long-term Implications of Trochlear Dysplasia and Patellar Dislocations.
The investigators intend to establish a national cohort including all persons in the ages from 15-20 years old with patellar instability (PI) or a prior knee injury (ACL-ruptur or meniscus damage) . The cohort will be nicknamed "The Faroese Knee Cohort". The overall aim is to investigate two groups. The …
Development of Computational Models to Predict the Short-, Medium- and Long-term Cartilage Degeneration and Pain for Patients With Early-stage Osteoarthritis or Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury
Knee osteoarthritis is a complex condition, and selecting effective non-drug treatments like orthoses or exercise is often difficult and imprecise. This study will follow individuals with early-stage knee osteoarthritis or previous anterior cruciate ligament injury to develop computational models that predict cartilage degeneration and pain over time. The models will …
Do Patients With ACL Tears Demonstrate Weakness of the Soleus Muscle?
The goal of this prospective, cross-sectional study is to test the strength of the soleus muscle in participants who have a ACL tear confirmed by MRI. Previous studies have shown that the soleus muscle, which one of the muscles situated in the calf, decreases mechanical loading on the ACL. Therefore, …
Anterior Cruciate Ligament Study
This retrospective, prospective observational study aims to evaluate the epidemiology and rate of anterior cruciate ligament re- rupture after surgery in patients treated from January 2020 to December 2030 by recording both clinically and radiographically ligament reconstruction. The primary outcome is the rate of rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament …
Physical Activity, Knee Joint Loading and Joint Health
The purpose of this study is to investigate the association between time spent in moderate to vigorous physical activity and markers of cartilage metabolism in the years following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
Multi-Vendor Multi-Site Novel Accelerated MRI Relaxometry
Currently the diagnosis of OA is based on radiographs and clinical findings, which is limited to detecting late-stage disease. There is a pressing, unmet clinical need for robust assessment of early changes in cartilage health. Towards this goal, extensive efforts are ongoing to develop quantitative MRI for cartilage matrix analysis. …
Exploring Prolonged AMR in ACL Reconstructed Patients
The goal of this observational study is to explore the significance of subject-reported outcomes and clinical parameters in relation to the occurence of prolonged presence of arthrogenic muscle responses (AMR) in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructed patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there a link between …
