Their high ecological validity and consequential high utilization mean that if not considerately prescribed, players may be exposed to frequent repetitive mechanical stress that may induce maladaptation in skeletally and/or load-naïve or sensitive athletes.

UE-SEBT was also correlated with LTET, TEET, and TFET to varying degrees.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>UE-SEBT has good reliability and validity to assess UE dynamic balance compared with other tests.</p><p><strong>Clinical relevance: </strong>UE-SEBT can be used as a clinical assessment method to evaluate UE dynamic balance and injury prevention.</p>","PeriodicalId":54276,"journal":{"name":"Sports Health-A Multidisciplinary Approach","volume":" ","pages":"923-930"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11531050/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139479175","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
