A retrospective international study on factors associated with injury, discomfort and pain perception among cyclists
2019
International audience; Although cycling has been associated with overuse/fatigue and acute injuries, there is lack of information regarding associated risk factors and prevention factors. The objective of the study was to determine the factors associated with injury, and perceptions of discomfort and pain in cyclists. A total of 739 cyclists completed an online questionnaire between February and October 2016. The questionnaire acquired information on participant demographics, characteristics related to cycling profile and fitness training, bike components and cycling posture, self-reported perceptions of comfort and pain, and injuries sustained in the last 12 months. Logistic regression mo…

Knee malpositions, for example valgus or varus deformations or flexion contractures, were often cited in the historical literature. In earlier times, clinical pictures such as rickets were often the reason for this kind of deformity. A causal therapy did not exist until the twentieth century. In most cases of rickets, genu valgum was reported as the typical knee deformation. The differential diagnosis for genu valgum caused by rickets was genu valgum traumaticum, paralyticum, and inflammatorium. The most important reports on the pathogenesis of valgus deformation can be found in publications by Hueter and von Mikulicz. The causal therapy of rickets was introduced at the beginning of the twe…

Useita pallopelejä luonnehtivat erilaiset nopeat suunnanmuutokset sekä äkilliset kiihdytykset, mitkä altistavat etenkin nuoria urheilijoita akuuteille alaraajavammoille. Aiempien tutkimusten valossa on esitetty, että jalkaterän laskeutumistekniikka saattaisi olla yhteydessä vammariskiin sekä erityyppisiin juoksuvammoihin. Hyvin vähän tiedetään kuitenkin jalkaterän laskeutumistekniikan yhteyksistä alaraajojen kinematiikkaan erityisesti nopeiden suunnanmuutosten aikana. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, onko nopeiden suunnanmuutosten yhteydessä esiintyvällä jalkaterän laskeutumistekniikalla yhteys nuorten palloilijoiden akuutteihin, ilman suoraa kontaktia, tapahtuneisiin nilkan- …
