Despite recommendations on how to prevent baseball injuries in youths by the Japanese Society of Clinical Sports Medicine, shoulder and elbow pain still frequently occurs young players. We conducted a questionnaire survey among players at elementary schools across country understand practice conditions players, examining risk factors The was school as members Baseball Federation Japan September 2015. A total 8354 belonging 412 teams (average age: 8.9) responded survey. Among 7894 who did not...
Objective To investigate the association between mid‐trimester residual cervical length ( CL ) and risk of preterm birth in pregnancies after abdominal radical trachelectomy RT ). Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting University hospital. Population A total 33 deliveries 22 weeks’ gestation 30 women who underwent including prophylactic cerclage perinatal care January 2002 May 2016. Methods The (the distance external os) gestational age at delivery was investigated. Receiver–operating...
Consensus has been lacking as to how reconstruct the posterolateral corner (PLC) of knee in patients with instability. We describe a new reconstructive technique for PLC based on Larson's method, which reflects physiological load-sharing pattern lateral collateral ligament (LCL) and popliteofibular (PFL).Semitendinosus graft is harvested, one limb comprises PFL other LCL. Femoral bone tunnels LCL popliteus tendon are made at their anatomical insertions. Fibular tunnel prepared from insertion...
Abstract Stress fractures are a limitation for athletes not only in sports performance but activities of daily living. Thus, preventing them is crucial. In female athletes, triad symptoms including low energy availability, functional hypothalamic amenorrhea and osteoporosis considered risk factors stress injuries, biomarkers predictive these outcomes available. Here, we evaluated 56 university found that 13 had history bone injuries. Logistic regression analysis demonstrated dysmenorrhea...
Despite proposals and guidelines to prevent baseball injuries in young players by societies organizations, many shoulder elbow continue occur among junior high school players. In order investigate the training conditions of risk factors for pain players, we conducted a questionnaire survey throughout country.The was September 2016.A total 11,134 belonging 495 teams responded survey. Among these, 4004 trained every day week 1151 played games month with no off-season. 9752 who did not have...
The purpose of the current study was to longitudinally evaluate how preoperative knee kinematics change after ACL reconstruction. Three-dimensional gait analysis using point cluster method undertaken on same subjects preoperatively and at 3, 6, 12 months reconstructive surgery. Thirteen (7 males, 6 females) were examined while performing 2 different activities self-selected speeds: walking walk-pivoting (walking, pivoting toward landed limb side away). contralateral knees postoperatively...
Foot progression angle is a key factor for biomechanical knee load, which associated with noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury during sports-specific tasks. The purpose of the present study was to assess biomechanics trunk, pelvis, and lower extremities cutting maneuver under different foot angles.Nineteen male collegiate athletes (ages 18-24) participated in study. Cutting motion analyzed using eight infrared cameras (250 Hz), two force plates (1250 44 reflective markers....
The magnitude and location of the axis tibial rotation were measured at 15 degrees increments between 0 degree 90 flexion using 24 normal anatomic knee specimens, their changes with angle investigated. was small (8.3 degrees) flexion, but increased rapidly as reached a maximum (31.7 30 flexion. It then decreased again additional (24.8 flexion). close to insertion anterior cruciate ligament gradually moving toward posterior (observed 45 60 flexion), moved anteriorly flexion: approximately...
Abstract Joint effusion after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is considered as a manifestation of certain inflammatory reactions within prosthetic joints. This study investigated causes joint following TKA and analyzed phenotypic characteristics synovial fluid leukocytes for each cause. Forty‐six TKAs rheumatoid arthritis (RA) 49 osteoarthritis (OA) displaying were investigated. Causes clinically identified frequencies cause compared between RA OA. Synovial cell phenotypes using...
The effect of increased physical activity on bone mineral density (BMD) the lumbar vertebrae was examined in postmenopausal osteoporotic women. Thirty-five women, aged 53-77 years, whose BMD (L2-L4) measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (Norland XR-26) below (>30%) young adult mean, were divided into two groups: a control group 20 women and an exercise 15 con-sisted daily outdoor walking gymnastic training performed for 12 months. During study period, all subjects treated with calcium...
