Context:
Individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI) have reported decreased global and regional function. Despite the identification of functional deficits in those with CAI, more research is required to determine the extent to which CAI influences the multidimensional profile of health-related quality of life.Objective:
To determine whether global, regional, and psychological health-related outcomes differ between individuals with and without CAI.Design:
Case-control study.Setting:
Laboratory.Patients or Other Participants:
Twenty-five participants with CAI (age = 21.9 ± 2.5 years, height = 170.8 ± 8.6 cm, mass = 69.8.0 ± 11.7 kg) were sex- and limb-matched to 25 healthy participants (age = 22.0 ± 2.1 years, height = 167.4 ± 9.1 cm, mass = 64.8 ± 11.2 kg).Main Outcome Measure(s):
Both groups completed the Disablement in the Physically Active Scale, the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM), the FAAM-Sport, the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia-11, and the Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire. Dependent variables were scores on these instruments, and the independent variable was group.Results:
Compared with healthy individuals, those with CAI reported decreased function on the Disablement in the Physically Active Scale, FAAM, and FAAM-Sport (P < .001) and increased fear of reinjury on the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia-11 and Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (P < .001). In the CAI group, the FAAM and FAAM-Sport demonstrated a significant relationship (r = 0.774, P < .01).Conclusions:
Individuals with CAI reported decreased function and increased fear of reinjury compared with healthy control participants. Also, within the CAI group, there was a strong relationship between FAAM and FAAM-Sport scores but not between any other instruments. These findings suggest that health-related quality of life should be examined during the rehabilitation process of individuals with CAI.Key Words: ankle sprains, impairment, fear of reinjury, psychologyKey Points
- Individuals with chronic ankle instability reported global, regional, and psychological health-related quality-of-life deficits compared with healthy control participants.
- Functional deficits and psychological barriers reported by the patient should be taken into consideration when clinicians treat individuals with chronic ankle instability.

Context:
Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is characterized by repeated ankle sprains, which have been linked to postural instability. Therefore, it is important for clinicians to identify individuals with CAI who can benefit from rehabilitation.Objective:
To assess the likelihood that CAI participants will exhibit impaired postural stability and that healthy control participants will exhibit better test performance values.Design:
Case-control study.Setting:
Laboratory.Patients or Other Participants:
People with CAI (n = 17, age = 23 ± 4 years, height = 168 ± 9 cm, weight = 68 ± 12 kg) who reported ankle “giving-way” sensations and healthy volunteers (n = 17, age = 23 ± 3 years, height = 168 ± 8 cm, weight = 66 ± 12 kg).Intervention(s):
Participants performed 7 balance tests: Balance Error Scoring System (BESS), time in balance, foot lift, single-legged stance on a force plate, Star Excursion Balance Test, side hop, and figure-of-8 hop.Main Outcome Measure(s):
Balance was quantified with errors (score) for the BESS, length of time balancing (seconds) for time-in-balance test, frequency of foot lifts (score) for foot-lift test, velocity (cm/s) for all center-of-pressure velocity measures, excursion (cm) for center-of-pressure excursion measures, area (cm2) for 95% confidence ellipse center-of-pressure area and center-of-pressure rectangular area, time (seconds) for anterior-posterior and medial-lateral time-to-boundary (TTB) measures, distance reached (cm) for Star Excursion Balance Test, and time (seconds) to complete side-hop and figure-of-8 hop tests. We calculated area-under-the-curve values and cutoff scores and used the odds ratio to determine if those with and without CAI could be distinguished using cutoff scores.Results:
We found significant area-under-the-curve values for 4 static noninstrumented measures, 3 force-plate measures, and 3 functional measures. Significant cutoff scores were noted for the time-in-balance test (≤25.89 seconds), foot-lift test (≥5), single-legged stance on the firm surface (≥3 errors) and total (≥14 errors) on the BESS, center-of-pressure resultant velocity (≥1.56 cm/s), standard deviations for medial-lateral (≤1.56 seconds) time-to-boundary and anterior-posterior (≤3.78 seconds) time-to-boundary test, posteromedial direction on the Star Excursion Balance Test (≤0.91), side-hop test (≥12.88 seconds), and figure-of-8 hop test (≥17.36 seconds).Conclusions:
Clinicians can use any of the 10 significant measures with their associated cutoff scores to identify those who could benefit from rehabilitation that reestablishes postural stability.Key Words: lower extremity, ankle sprains, Balance Error Scoring System, Star Excursion Balance TestKey Points
- Chronic ankle instability has been linked to postural instability. Postural instability can be addressed with targeted interventions.
- The time-in-balance test, foot-lift test, Balance Error Scoring System total and single-limb stance on a firm surface, center-of-pressure resultant velocity, time-to-boundary anterior-posterior and medial-lateral standard deviation, Star Excursion Balance Test in the posteromedial direction, side-hop test, and figure-of-8 hop test can be used to identify people with chronic ankle instability who may benefit from rehabilitation to reestablish postural stability.

Context:
Few authors have assessed neuromuscular knee-stabilization strategies in individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI) during functional activities.Objective:
To investigate the influence of CAI on neuromuscular characteristics around the knee during a stop-jump task.Design:
Case-control study.Setting:
Research laboratory.Participants or Other Participants:
A total of 19 participants with self-reported unilateral CAI and 19 healthy control participants volunteered for this study.Intervention(s):
Participants performed double-legged, vertical stop-jump tasks onto a force plate, and we measured muscle activation around the knee of each limb.Main Outcome Measure(s):
We calculated the integrated electromyography for the vastus medialis oblique, vastus lateralis, medial hamstrings, and lateral hamstrings muscles during the 100 ms before and after initial foot contacts with the force plate and normalized by the ensemble peak electromyographic value. Knee sagittal-plane kinematics were also analyzed during a stop-jump task.Results:
Compared with control participants, the CAI group demonstrated greater prelanding integrated electromyographic activity of the vastus medialis oblique (CAI = 52.28 ± 11.25%·ms, control = 43.90 ± 10.13%·ms, t36 = 2.41, P = .021, effect size = 0.78, 95% confidence interval = 0.11, 1.43) and less knee-flexion angle at the point of initial foot contact (CAI = 7.81° ± 8.27°, control = 14.09° ± 8.7°, t36 = −2.28, P = .029, effect size = −0.74, 95% confidence interval = −1.38, −0.07) and at 100 ms post–initial foot contact (CAI = 51.36° ± 5.29°, control = 58.66° ± 7.66°, t36 = −3.42, P = .002, effect size = −1.11, 95% confidence interval = −1.77, −0.40). No significant results were noted for the other electromyographic measures.Conclusions:
We found altered feed-forward patterns of the vastus medialis oblique and altered postlanding knee sagittal-plane kinematics in the CAI group. These observations may provide insight regarding sensorimotor characteristics that may be associated with CAI.Key Words: feed-forward pattern, feedback, sensorimotor controlKey Points
- Increased preparatory vastus medialis oblique muscle activation and decreased postlanding knee-flexion angle were seen in participants with chronic ankle instability compared with the control group during a vertical stop jump.
- Feed-forward sensorimotor control around the knee should be addressed during therapeutic interventions for chronic ankle instability.

Patient-Reported Outcome Measures in Individuals With Chronic Ankle Instability: A Systematic Review
Megan N. Houston Johanna M. Hoch Matthew C. Hoch 《Journal of Athletic Training》2015,50(10):1019-1033
Context A comprehensive systematic literature review of the health-related quality-of-life (HRQOL) differences among individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI), ankle-sprain copers, and healthy control participants has not been conducted. It could provide a better indication of the self-reported deficits that may be present in individuals with CAI.Objective To systematically summarize the extent to which HRQOL deficits are present in individuals with CAI.Conclusions The evidence suggested that CAI is associated with functional and HRQOL deficits, particularly when examined with region-specific PROs. However, PROs do not appear to differ between copers and healthy controls.Key Words: region-specific outcomes, ankle sprains, patient-centered care
Key Points
- Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is most likely associated with decreased health-related quality of life as measured by patient-reported outcomes.
- Patient-reported outcomes did not appear to be affected in ankle-sprain copers.
- Given that region-specific outcomes were worse in individuals with CAI than in ankle-sprain copers and healthy control participants, they should be considered when treating CAI and ankle sprains.

ContextAltered biomechanics displayed by individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI) is a possible cause of recurring injuries and posttraumatic osteoarthritis. Current interventions are unable to modify aberrant biomechanics, leading to research efforts to determine if real-time external biofeedback can result in changes.ObjectiveTo determine the real-time effects of visual and auditory biofeedback on functional-task biomechanics in individuals with CAI.DesignCrossover study.SettingLaboratory.Patients or Other ParticipantsNineteen physically active adults with CAI (7 men, 12 women; age = 23.95 ± 5.52 years, height = 168.87 ± 6.94 cm, mass = 74.74 ± 15.41 kg).Intervention(s)Participants randomly performed single-limb static balance, step downs, lateral hops, and forward lunges during a baseline and 2 biofeedback conditions. Visual biofeedback was given through a crossline laser secured to the dorsum of the foot. Auditory biofeedback was given through a pressure sensor placed under the lateral foot and connected to a buzzer that elicited a noise when pressure exceeded the set threshold. Cues provided during the biofeedback conditions were used to promote proper biomechanics during each task.Main Outcome Measure(s)We measured the location of center-of-pressure (COP) data points during balance with eyes open and eyes closed for each condition. Plantar pressure in the lateral column of the foot during functional tasks was extracted. Secondary outcomes of interest were COP area and velocity, time to boundary during static balance, and additional plantar-pressure measures.ResultsBoth biofeedback conditions reduced COP in the anterolateral quadrant while increasing COP in the posteromedial quadrant of the foot during eyes-open balance. Visual biofeedback increased lateral heel pressure and the lateral heel and midfoot pressure-time integral during hops. The auditory condition produced similar changes during the eyes-closed trials. Auditory biofeedback increased heel pressure during step downs and decreased the lateral forefoot pressure-time integral during lunges.ConclusionsReal-time improvements in balance strategies were observed during both external biofeedback conditions. Visual and auditory biofeedback appeared to effectively moderate different functional-task biomechanics. 相似文献

Context:
Bilateral improvements in postural control have been reported among individuals with acute lateral ankle sprains and individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI) when only the unstable ankle is rehabilitated. We do not know if training the stable ankle will improve function on the unstable side.Objective:
To explore the effects of a unilateral balance-training program on bilateral lower extremity balance and function in individuals with CAI when only the stable limb is trained.Design:
Cohort study.Setting:
University clinical research laboratory.Patients or Other Participants:
A total of 34 volunteers (8 men, 26 women; age = 24.32 ± 4.95 years, height = 167.01 ± 9.45 cm, mass = 77.54 ± 23.76 kg) with CAI were assigned to the rehabilitation (n = 17) or control (n = 17) group. Of those, 27 (13 rehabilitation group, 14 control group) completed the study.Intervention(s):
Balance training twice weekly for 4 weeks.Main Outcome Measure(s):
Foot and Ankle Disability Index (FADI), FADI Sport (FADI-S), Star Excursion Balance Test, and Balance Error Scoring System.Results:
The rehabilitation and control groups differed in changes in FADI-S and Star Excursion Balance Test scores over time. Only the rehabilitation group improved in the FADI-S and in the posteromedial and anterior reaches of the Star Excursion Balance Test. Both groups demonstrated improvements in posterolateral reach; however, the rehabilitation group demonstrated greater improvement than the control group. When the groups were combined, participants reported improvements in FADI and FADI-S scores for the unstable ankle but not the stable ankle.Conclusions:
Our data suggest training the stable ankle may result in improvements in balance and lower extremity function in the unstable ankle. This further supports the existence of a centrally mediated mechanism in the development of postural-control deficits after injury, as well as improved postural control after rehabilitation.Key Words: overflow, crossover training, rehabilitationKey Points
- The rehabilitation group performed better over time on the Foot and Ankle Disability Index Sport and the Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) in the anterior, posteromedial, and posterolateral directions, but this was not dependent on ankle.
- Training the stable ankle may provide therapeutic benefit to the unstable ankle.
- Performance on the Balance Error Scoring System did not reflect a therapeutic benefit of the neuromuscular-control training program, but the result should be interpreted with caution.
- Clinicians should consider incorporating rehabilitation of the stable ankle in the overall plan for patients who may not be ready to initiate aspects of rehabilitation on the unstable ankle.

Context:
Why some individuals with ankle sprains develop functional ankle instability and others do not (ie, copers) is unknown. Current understanding of the clinical profile of copers is limited.Objective:
To contrast individuals with functional ankle instability (FAI), copers, and uninjured individuals on both self-reported variables and clinical examination findings.Design:
Cross-sectional study.Setting:
Sports medicine research laboratory.Patients or Other Participants:
Participants consisted of 23 individuals with a history of 1 or more ankle sprains and at least 2 episodes of giving way in the past year (FAI: Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool [CAIT] score = 20.52 ± 2.94, episodes of giving way = 5.8 ± 8.4 per month), 23 individuals with a history of a single ankle sprain and no subsequent episodes of instability (copers: CAIT score = 27.74 ± 1.69), and 23 individuals with no history of ankle sprain and no instability (uninjured: CAIT score = 28.78 ± 1.78).Intervention(s):
Self-reported disability was recorded using the CAIT and Foot and Ankle Ability Measure for Activities of Daily Living and for Sports. On clinical examination, ligamentous laxity and tenderness, range of motion (ROM), and pain at end ROM were recorded.Main Outcome Measure(s):
Questionnaire scores for the CAIT, Foot and Ankle Ability Measure for Activities of Daily Living and for Sports, ankle inversion and anterior drawer laxity scores, pain with palpation of the lateral ligaments, ankle ROM, and pain at end ROM.Results:
Individuals with FAI had greater self-reported disability for all measures (P < .05). On clinical examination, individuals with FAI were more likely to have greater talar tilt laxity, pain with inversion, and limited sagittal-plane ROM than copers (P < .05).Conclusions:
Differences in both self-reported disability and clinical examination variables distinguished individuals with FAI from copers at least 1 year after injury. Whether the deficits could be detected immediately postinjury to prospectively identify potential copers is unknown.Key Words: laxity, chronic ankle instability, giving way, range of motionKey Points
- Compared with copers, participants with functional ankle instability had greater self-reported disability, talar tilt laxity, and pain with inversion and limited sagittal-plane range of motion.
- Identifying dynamic coping mechanisms may help to improve ankle-sprain prevention and treatment strategies.

Context:
Chronic ankle instability is characterized by repetitive lateral ankle sprains. Prophylactic ankle taping is a common intervention used to reduce the risk of ankle sprains. However, little research has been conducted to evaluate the effect ankle taping has on gait kinematics.Objective:
To investigate the effect of taping on ankle and knee kinematics during walking and jogging in participants with chronic ankle instability.Design:
Controlled laboratory study.Setting:
Motion analysis laboratory.Patients or Participants:
A total of 15 individuals (8 men, 7 women; age = 26.9 ± 6.8 years, height = 171.7 ± 6.3 cm, mass = 73.5 ± 10.7 kg) with self-reported chronic ankle instability volunteered. They had an average of 5.3 ± 3.1 incidences of ankle sprain.Intervention(s):
Participants walked and jogged in shoes on a treadmill while untaped and taped. The tape technique was a traditional preventive taping procedure. Conditions were randomized.Main Outcome Measure(s):
Frontal-plane and sagittal-plane ankle and sagittal-plane knee kinematics were recorded throughout the entire gait cycle. Group means and 90% confidence intervals were calculated, plotted, and inspected for percentages of the gait cycle in which the confidence intervals did not overlap.Results:
During walking, participants were less plantar flexed from 64% to 69% of the gait cycle (mean difference = 5.73° ± 0.54°) and less inverted from 51% to 61% (mean difference = 4.34° ± 0.65°) and 76% to 81% (mean difference = 5.55° ± 0.54°) of the gait cycle when taped. During jogging, participants were less dorsiflexed from 12% to 21% (mean difference = 4.91° ± 0.18°) and less inverted from 47% to 58% (mean difference = 6.52° ± 0.12°) of the gait cycle when taped. No sagittal-plane knee kinematic differences were found.Conclusions:
In those with chronic ankle instability, taping resulted in a more neutral ankle position during walking and jogging in shoes on a treadmill. This change in foot positioning and the mechanical properties of the tape may explain the protective aspect of taping in preventing lateral ankle sprains.Key Words: external ankle supports, ankle prophylactic measures, recurrent ankle sprainsKey Points
- Taping the ankles of participants with chronic ankle instability resulted in more neutral positioning when they walked or jogged in shoes on a treadmill.
- Taping may protect the ankle by way of its mechanical properties and its neuromuscular effect on ankle position.

Context:Chronic ankle instability (CAI) occurs in some people after a lateral ankle sprain and often results in residual feelings of instability and episodes of the ankle''s giving way. Compared with healthy people, patients with CAI demonstrated poor postural control and used a more anteriorly and laterally positioned center of pressure (COP) during a single-limb static-balance task on a force plate. Balance training is an effective means of altering traditional COP measures; however, whether the overall location of the COP distribution under the foot also changes is unknown.Objective:To determine if the spatial locations of COP data points in participants with CAI change after a 4-week balance-training program.Design:Randomized controlled trial.Setting:Laboratory.Intervention(s):Participants were randomly assigned to a 4-week balance-training program or no balance training.Results:Overall, COP position in the balance-training group shifted from being more anterior to less anterior in both eyes-open trials (before trial = 319.1 ± 165.4, after trial = 160.5 ± 149.5; P = .006) and eyes-closed trials (before trial = 387.9 ± 123.8, after trial = 189.4 ± 102.9; P < .001). The COP for the group that did not perform balance training remained the same in the eyes-open trials (before trial = 214.1 ± 193.3, after trial = 230.0 ± 176.3; P = .54) and eyes-closed trials (before trial = 326.9 ± 134.3, after trial = 338.2 ± 126.1; P = .69).Conclusions:In participants with CAI, the balance-training program shifted the COP location from anterolateral to posterolateral. The program may have repaired some of the damaged sensorimotor system pathways, resulting in a more optimally functioning and less constrained system.Key Words: sprains, rehabilitation, postural control
Key Points
- A 4-week progressive balance-training program effectively altered the spatial locations of center-of-pressure data points in participants with chronic ankle instability.
- The alteration in the spatial locations of center-of-pressure data points may indicate a more optimally functioning sensorimotor system.

Context
Ankle sprains are the most common orthopaedic pathologic condition, and more concerning is the high percentage of persons who develop chronic ankle instability (CAI). Researchers have reported that patients with CAI are restricted occupationally, have more functional limitations, and have a poorer health-related quality of life. We do not know if these limitations decrease physical activity levels.Objective
To assess total weekly steps taken between persons with CAI and persons with healthy ankles.Design
Case-control study.Setting
University research laboratory.Patients or Other Participants
A total of 20 participants with unilateral CAI (9 men, 11 women; age = 21.2 ± 1.9 years, height = 174.3 ± 6.9 cm, mass = 71.9 ± 11.7 kg) and 20 healthy participants (9 men, 11 women; age = 20.4 ± 2.1 years, height = 172.1 ± 5.5 cm, mass = 73.1 ± 13.4 kg) volunteered.Main Outcome Measure(s)
We provided all participants with a pedometer and instructed them to wear it every day for 7 days and to complete a daily step log. They also completed the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM), the FAAM Sport version, and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. A 2-way analysis of variance (group × sex) was used to determine if differences existed in the total number of weekly steps, ankle laxity, and answers on the International Physical Activity Questionnaire between groups and between sexes.Results
We found no group × sex interaction for step count (F range = 0.439–2.108, P = .08). A main effect for group was observed (F1,38 = 10.45, P = .04). The CAI group took fewer steps than the healthy group (P = .04). The average daily step count was 6694.47 ± 1603.35 for the CAI group and 8831.01 ± 1290.01 for the healthy group. The CAI group also scored lower on the FAAM (P = .01) and the FAAM Sport version (P = .01).Conclusions
The decreased step count that the participants with CAI demonstrated is concerning. This decreased physical activity may be secondary to the functional limitations reported. If this decrease in physical activity level continues for an extended period, CAI may potentially be a substantial health risk if not treated appropriately.Key Words: ankle sprain, laxity, exerciseKey Points
- The chronic ankle instability (CAI) group was less physically active than the healthy group.
- Increased laxity in the CAI group may have contributed to differences in physical activity levels.
- The decreased step count in the CAI group may have been caused by increased joint laxity or by the corresponding changes in neuromuscular control that occur with joint instability.
- The long-term consequences of decreased physical activity with any musculoskeletal injury could lead to the development of chronic diseases and warrant further study.

ContextPatients with chronic ankle instability (CAI) have demonstrated sensorimotor impairments. Submaximal force steadiness and accuracy measure sensory, motor, and visual function via a feedback mechanism, which helps researchers and clinicians comprehend the sensorimotor deficits associated with CAI.ObjectiveTo determine if participants with CAI experienced deficits in hip and ankle submaximal force steadiness and accuracy compared with healthy control participants.DesignCase-control study.SettingResearch laboratory.Patients or Other ParticipantsTwenty-one patients with CAI and 21 uninjured individuals.Main Outcome Measure(s)Maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) and force steadiness and accuracy (10% and 30% of MVIC) of the ankle evertors and invertors and hip abductors were assessed using the central 10 seconds (20%–87% of the total time) of the 3 trials.ResultsRelative to the control group, the CAI group demonstrated less accuracy of the invertors (P < .001). Across all motions, the CAI group showed less steadiness (P < .001) and less accuracy (P < .01) than the control group at 10% of MVIC. For MVIC, the CAI group displayed less force output in hip abduction than the uninjured group (P < .0001).ConclusionsPatients with CAI were unable to control ongoing fine force (10% and 30% of MVIC) through a feedback mechanism during an active test. These findings suggested that deficits in sensorimotor control predisposed patients with CAI to injury positions because they had difficulty integrating the peripheral information and correcting their movements in relation to visual information. 相似文献

Context: Despite the importance of patient's subjective reports of function, little research has addressed their use in the athletic population.Objective: To examine the following measurement properties of the Foot and Ankle Disability Index (FADI) and the FADI Sport: (1) intersession reliability during 1- and 6-week intervals, (2) sensitivity to differences between healthy subjects and subjects with chronic ankle instability (CAI), and (3) sensitivity to changes in function in those with CAI after rehabilitation.Design: Test-retest design.Setting: Laboratory setting.Patients or Other Participants: Fifty recreationally active subjects.Main Outcome Measure(s): FADI and FADI Sport.Results: Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC 2,1) for the FADI and FADI Sport at 1 week were 0.89 and 0.84, respectively, for the involved limbs. Over 6 weeks, the ICC values for the involved limb of subjects who did not complete rehabilitation were 0.93 and 0.92, respectively. For both surveys, scores were significantly less for the involved limbs of subjects with CAI compared with their uninvolved limbs (P < .05). No significant side-to-side differences were noted among the healthy subjects. Scores on both surveys increased significantly after rehabilitation (FADI: P < .05, effect size = 0.52; FADI Sport: P < .05, effect size = 0.71).Conclusions: The FADI and FADI Sport appear to be (1) reliable in detecting functional limitations in subjects with CAI, (2) sensitive to differences between healthy subjects and subjects with CAI, and (3) responsive to improvements in function after rehabilitation in subjects with CAI. 相似文献

Participants with chronic ankle instability (CAI) use an altered neuromuscular strategy to shift weight from double-legged to single-legged stance. Shoes and foot orthoses may influence these muscle-activation patterns.Objective
To evaluate the influence of shoes and foot orthoses on onset times of lower extremity muscle activity in participants with CAI during the transition from double-legged to single-legged stance.Design
Cross-sectional study.Setting
Musculoskeletal laboratory.Patients or Other Participants
A total of 15 people (9 men, 6 women; age = 21.8 ± 3.0 years, height = 177.7 ± 9.6 cm, mass = 72.0 ± 14.6 kg) who had CAI and wore foot orthoses were recruited.Intervention(s)
A transition task from double-legged to single-legged stance was performed with eyes open and with eyes closed. Both limbs were tested in 4 experimental conditions: (1) barefoot (BF), (2) shoes only, (3) shoes with standard foot orthoses, and (4) shoes with custom foot orthoses (SCFO).Main Outcome Measure(s)
The onset of activity of 9 lower extremity muscles was recorded using surface electromyography and a single force plate.Results
Based on a full-factorial (condition, region, limb, vision) linear model for repeated measures, we found a condition effect (F3,91.8 = 9.39, P < .001). Differences among experimental conditions did not depend on limb or vision condition. Based on a 2-way (condition, muscle) linear model within each region (ankle, knee, hip), earlier muscle-activation onset times were observed in the SCFO than in the BF condition for the peroneus longus (P < .001), tibialis anterior (P = .003), vastus medialis obliquus (P = .04), and vastus lateralis (P = .005). Furthermore, the peroneus longus was activated earlier in the shoes-only (P = .02) and shoes-with-standard-foot-orthoses (P = .03) conditions than in the BF condition. No differences were observed for the hip muscles.Conclusions
Earlier onset of muscle activity was most apparent in the SCFO condition for ankle and knee muscles but not for hip muscles during the transition from double-legged to single-legged stance. These findings might help clinicians understand how shoes and foot orthoses can influence neuromuscular control in participants with CAI.Key Words: footwear, insoles, ankle sprains, neuromuscular system, electromyographyKey Points
- Shoes and foot orthoses accelerated muscle-activation onset times of the ankle and knee but not the hip in participants with chronic ankle instability.
- Earlier muscle-activation onset times were most prominent in the shoes-with-custom-foot-orthoses condition.
- At the ankle, the muscle-activation onset time of the peroneus longus was earlier in the shoes-only, shoes-with-standard-foot-orthoses, and shoes-with-custom-foot-orthoses conditions than in the barefoot condition, and the muscle-activation onset time of the tibialis anterior was earlier in the shoes-with-custom-foot-orthoses condition than in the barefoot condition.
- At the knee, the muscle-activation onset times of the vastus medialis obliquus and vastus lateralis were earlier in the shoes-with-custom-foot-orthoses condition than in the barefoot condition.
- The results may help clinicians understand how shoes and foot orthoses can influence neuromuscular control of the lower extremity in participants with chronic ankle instability.

Context:
Chronic ankle instability (CAI) has been previously and separately associated with deficits in dynamic stability and proximal joint neuromuscular alterations, but how the 2 factors relate is unclear.Objective:
To examine the contributions of lower extremity kinematics during an assessment of dynamic stability in participants with CAI.Design:
Repeated-measures case-control design.Setting:
Research laboratory.Patients or Other Participants:
Thirty-eight volunteers were categorized into groups of those with unilateral CAI (10 men, 9 women; age = 20.3 ± 2.9 years, height = 1.77 ± 0.1 m, mass = 76.19 ± 13.19 kg) and those without (10 men, 9 women; age = 23.1 ± 3.9 years, height = 1.72 ± 0.1 m, mass = 72.67 ± 16.0 kg).Intervention(s):
Participants performed 10 jump landings on each limb with a rest period between test limbs.Main Outcome Measure(s):
Ankle plantar flexion, knee flexion, and hip flexion were captured with an electromagnetic tracking device at the point of ground impact. Ground reaction force data were used to calculate time to stabilization in the anteroposterior and mediolateral planes.Results:
For the anteroposterior plane, we found a group-by-side interaction (P = .003), with the injured side of the CAI group demonstrating reduced dynamic stability. For knee flexion, a group main effect (P = .008) showed that the CAI group landed with less knee flexion than the control group.Conclusions:
Diminished dynamic stability and decreased knee flexion angle at initial contact were apparent in the CAI group and may play a role in contributing to CAI. This altered kinematic pattern may influence preventive and therapeutic interventions for those with CAI. 相似文献15.

Context:
Plyometric exercise has been recommended to prevent lower limb injury, but its feasibility in and effects on those with functional ankle instability (FAI) are unclear.Objective:
To investigate the effect of integrated plyometric and balance training in participants with FAI during a single-legged drop landing and single-legged standing position.Design:
Randomized controlled clinical trial.Setting:
University motion-analysis laboratory.Patients or Other Participants:
Thirty athletes with FAI were divided into 3 groups: plyometric group (8 men, 2 women, age = 23.20 ± 2.82 years; 10 unstable ankles), plyometric-balance (integrated)–training group (8 men, 2 women, age = 23.80 ± 4.13 years; 10 unstable ankles), and control group (7 men, 3 women, age = 23.50 ± 3.00 years; 10 unstable ankles).Intervention(s):
A 6-week plyometric-training program versus a 6-week integrated-training program.Main Outcome Measure(s):
Postural sway during single-legged standing with eyes open and closed was measured before and after training. Kinematic data were recorded during medial and lateral single-legged drop landings after a 5-second single-legged stance.Results:
Reduced postural sway in the medial-lateral direction and reduced sway area occurred in the plyometric- and integrated-training groups. Generally, the plyometric training and integrated training increased the maximum angles at the hip and knee in the sagittal plane, reduced the maximum angles at the hip and ankle in the frontal and transverse planes in the lateral drop landing, and reduced the time to stabilization for knee flexion in the medial drop landing.Conclusions:
After 6 weeks of plyometric training or integrated training, individuals with FAI used a softer landing strategy during drop landings and decreased their postural sway during the single-legged stance. Plyometric training improved static and dynamic postural control and should be incorporated into rehabilitation programs for those with FAI.Key Words: plyometric training, balance training, landings, ankle injuriesKey Points
- After 6 weeks of isolated plyometric or combined plyometric and balance training, people with functional ankle instability demonstrated increased lower extremity maximal sagittal-plane angles and decreased maximal frontal-plane and transverse-plane angles on ground contact.
- Static and dynamic postural control improved with plyometric training, which should be included in rehabilitation programs for patients with functional ankle instability.

Context:
Functional ankle instability (FAI) is a debilitating condition that has been reported to occur after 20% to 50% of all ankle sprains. Landing from a jump is one common mechanism of ankle injury, yet few researchers have explored the role of visual cues and anticipatory muscle contractions, which may influence ankle stability, in lateral jumping maneuvers.Objective:
To examine muscle-activation strategies between FAI and stable ankles under a lateral load and to evaluate the differences in muscle activation in participants with FAI and participants with stable ankles when they were unable to anticipate the onset of lateral loads during eyes-open versus eyes-closed conditions.Design:
Case-control study.Setting:
Controlled laboratory setting.Patients or Other Participants:
A total of 40 people participated: 20 with FAI and 20 healthy, uninjured, sex- and age-matched persons (control group).Intervention(s):
Participants performed a 2-legged lateral jump off a platform onto a force plate set to heights of 35 cm or 50 cm and then immediately jumped for maximal height. They performed jumps in 2 conditions (eyes open, eyes closed) and were unaware of the jump height when their eyes were closed.Main Outcome Measure(s):
Amplitude normalized electromyographic (EMG) area (%), peak (%), and time to peak in the tibialis anterior (TA), peroneus longus (PL), and lateral gastrocnemius (LG) muscles were measured.Results:
Regardless of the eyes-open or eyes-closed condition, participants with FAI had less preparatory TA (t158 = 2.22, P = .03) and PL (t158 = 2.09, P = .04) EMG area and TA (t158 = 2.45, P = .02) and PL (t158 = 2.17, P = .03) peak EMG than control-group participants.Conclusions:
By removing visual cues, unanticipated lateral joint loads occurred simultaneously with decreased muscle activity, which may reduce dynamic restraint capabilities in persons with FAI. Regardless of visual impairment and jump height, participants with FAI exhibited PL and TA inhibition, which may limit talonavicular stability and intensify lateral joint surface compression and pain.Key Words: electromyography, peroneus longus, tibialis anterior, neuromuscular controlKey Points
- Participants with functional ankle instability (FAI) had less preparatory electromyographic (EMG) area and less peak EMG amplitude in the peroneus longus and tibialis anterior compared to control participants.
- When landing from a lateral jump, participants with FAI exhibited muscle-activation strategies that were different from those of participants with stable ankles.
- Participants with FAI did not appropriately increase dynamic stability relative to the functional demands.
- Decreased activation in the peroneus longus and tibialis anterior before landing from unknown heights has important clinical applications because it may place persons with FAI at risk for further injury during athletic activities.

OBJECTIVE: To examine if patients with chronic ankle instability or a history of ankle sprains without chronic instability have worse proprioception or less invertor and evertor muscle strength. DESIGN AND SETTING: We assessed proprioception and muscle strength on the Biodex isokinetic dynamometer in the laboratory of the Department of Sports Medicine, University Hospital Ghent. SUBJECTS: Subjects included 87 physical education students (44 men, 43 women, age = 18.33 +/- 1.25 years, mass = 66.09 +/- 8.11 kg, height = 174.11 +/- 8.57 cm) at the University of Ghent in Belgium. Their ankles were divided into 4 groups: a symptom-free control group, subjects with chronic ankle instability, subjects who had sustained an ankle sprain in the last 2 years without instability, and subjects who sustained an ankle sprain 3 to 5 years earlier without instability. MEASUREMENTS: Active and passive joint-position sense was assessed at the ankle, and isokinetic peak torque was determined for concentric and eccentric eversion and inversion movements at the ankle. RESULTS: Statistical analysis indicated significantly less accurate active position sense for the instability group compared with the control group at a position close to maximal inversion. The instability group also showed a significantly lower relative eversion muscle strength (% body weight). No significant differences were observed between the control group and the groups with past sprains without instability. CONCLUSIONS: We suggest that the possible cause of chronic ankle instability is a combination of diminished proprioception and evertor muscle weakness. Therefore, we emphasize proprioception and strength training in the rehabilitation program for ankle instability. 相似文献

目的 探究护踝对功能性踝关节不稳(functional ankle instability,FAI)患者的保护作用,为其护踝的选择提供依据。 方法 15 名 FAI 患者随机佩戴半刚性、弹性护踝及无护踝以自选速度步行和跑步,运用红外光点运动捕捉系统和三维测力台采集其下肢运动生物力学参数。 通过 3×2 重复设计的双因素方差分析检验护踝和运动模式对下肢运动学、动力学和能量吸收的影响。 结果 护踝与运动模式对本研究中所有指标均无交互作用(P>0. 05)。不论运动模式,与无护踝相比,弹性护踝显著减少了 FAI 患者踝关节内翻角峰值、内翻角速度和踝关节能量吸收(P<0. 05),同时增加了踝关节外翻力矩( P < 0. 001);而半刚性护踝增加了踝关节内翻角峰值和内翻角速度(P<0. 05)。 此外,弹性护踝可降低着地时刻的膝关节内旋力矩和外旋力矩峰值(P<0. 05)。 结论 与无护踝相比,弹性护踝通过减小踝关节内翻角、内翻角速度和能量吸收,增大踝关节外翻力矩,继而起到预防踝关节扭伤的作用。 FAI 患者佩戴半刚性护踝后需定时关注踝关节慢性损伤风险。 整体来看,弹性护踝的防护效果可能更有效,且未引起膝关节功能补偿,可作为预防 FAI 患者踝关节扭伤的有效措施。 相似文献

Context:
Lower extremity movement patterns have been implicated as a risk factor for various knee disorders. Ankle-dorsiflexion (DF) range of motion (ROM) has previously been associated with a faulty movement pattern among healthy female participants.Objective:
To determine the association between ankle DF ROM and the quality of lower extremity movement during the lateral step-down test among healthy male participants.Design:
Cross-sectional study.Setting:
Training facility of the Israel Defense Forces.Patients or Other Participants:
Fifty-five healthy male Israeli military recruits (age = 19.7 ± 1.1 years, height = 175.4 ± 6.4 cm, mass = 72.0 ± 7.6 kg).Intervention(s):
Dorsiflexion ROM was measured in weight-bearing and non–weight-bearing conditions using a fluid-filled inclinometer and a universal goniometer, respectively. Lower extremity movement pattern was assessed visually using the lateral step-down test and classified categorically as good or moderate. All measurements were performed bilaterally.Main Outcome Measure(s):
Weight-bearing and non–weight-bearing DF ROM were more limited among participants with moderate quality of movement than in those with good quality of movement on the dominant side (P = .01 and P = .02 for weight-bearing and non–weight-bearing DF, respectively). Non–weight-bearing DF demonstrated a trend toward a decreased range among participants with moderate compared with participants with good quality of movement on the nondominant side (P = .03 [adjusted P = .025]). Weight-bearing DF was not different between participants with good and moderate movement patterns on the nondominant side (P = .10). Weight-bearing and non–weight-bearing ankle DF ROM correlated significantly with the quality of movement on both sides (P < .01 and P < .05 on the dominant and nondominant side, respectively).Conclusions:
Ankle DF ROM was associated with quality of movement among healthy male participants. The association seemed weaker in males than in females.Key Words: anterior cruciate ligament, hip, knee, lateral step-down test, patellofemoral pain syndromeKey Points
- Healthy males with a moderate quality of movement on the lateral step-down test exhibited less ankle-dorsiflexion range of motion than those with a good quality of movement.
- When a lower quality of movement is present in males, clinicians should consider interventions to increase ankle dorsiflexion.
