Abstract
Background
Recent evidence has utilized energetic absorption as an alternative method to evaluate biomechanical profiles associated with lower extremity injury risk. The aim of scoping review is to summarize the literatures that utilized energetic analysis in individuals with lower extremity injury history during functional tasks.
Methods
A literature search, conducted in August 2023, involved four databases—PubMed, SPORTDiscus, Scopus, and Web of Science. A manual search was performed to identify additional articles.
Findings
Among the 17 included studies, we identified 11 and 6 articles investigated lower extremity energetic absorption in individuals with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and chronic ankle instability history during jump-related tasks, receptively. Individuals with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction displayed a reduction of energetic absorption in the involved knee, coupled with increased energetic absorption in the involved hip, as compared to the uninvolved limb or the reference group. The findings in those with chronic ankle instability were varied. Most studies suggested that individuals with chronic ankle instability displayed a compensatory movement pattern to off-load their ankle joint, while concurrently increasing energy absorbed at the knee joint compared to the reference group. Conversely, one study suggested that individuals with chronic ankle instability might rely more on their ankle joint for energy absorption.
Interpretation
Our findings indicated that both individuals with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and chronic ankle instability displayed a distinctive compensatory strategy during landing. This strategy is characterized by increasing energy dissipation on the proximal joints, compensating for a reduction on the distal joint to dissipate less energy.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Biomechanics is an international multidisciplinary journal of biomechanics with a focus on medical and clinical applications of new knowledge in the field.
The science of biomechanics helps explain the causes of cell, tissue, organ and body system disorders, and supports clinicians in the diagnosis, prognosis and evaluation of treatment methods and technologies. Clinical Biomechanics aims to strengthen the links between laboratory and clinic by publishing cutting-edge biomechanics research which helps to explain the causes of injury and disease, and which provides evidence contributing to improved clinical management.
A rigorous peer review system is employed and every attempt is made to process and publish top-quality papers promptly.
Clinical Biomechanics explores all facets of body system, organ, tissue and cell biomechanics, with an emphasis on medical and clinical applications of the basic science aspects. The role of basic science is therefore recognized in a medical or clinical context. The readership of the journal closely reflects its multi-disciplinary contents, being a balance of scientists, engineers and clinicians.
The contents are in the form of research papers, brief reports, review papers and correspondence, whilst special interest issues and supplements are published from time to time.
Disciplines covered include biomechanics and mechanobiology at all scales, bioengineering and use of tissue engineering and biomaterials for clinical applications, biophysics, as well as biomechanical aspects of medical robotics, ergonomics, physical and occupational therapeutics and rehabilitation.
