Overview

Retrospective study compares eccentric and concentric forces in ACL-R patients to healthy controls, indicating biomechanical deficits.

Key Points

  • CMJ height was significantly lower in the ACL-R group compared to controls, indicating impaired jump performance.
  • Eccentric mean force and concentric mean force production were both lower in the ACL-R group, showing compromised recovery.
  • Significant inter-limb asymmetries were observed after ACL-R, highlighting a need for focused rehabilitation.
  • The mixed ANOVA analysis revealed critical differences in limb symmetry index between ACL-R patients and healthy controls.
