Overview

Cross-sectional study compares dynamic postural stability post-ACLR and healthy controls, revealing sex differences.

Key Points

  • The study aims to compare dynamic postural stability between individuals post-ACL reconstruction and healthy controls while exploring sex differences.
  • Cross-sectional laboratory study with 41 participants (21 ACLR, 20 controls)
  • Participants performed double-leg countermovement jumps and maintained the landing position for 10 seconds
  • Time to stabilization (TTS) and postural stability indices (PSI) were calculated and compared between groups.
  • ACLR group had significantly higher TTS values than controls (RVTTS-C p=0.03, VTTS-op p=0.02)
  • Males with ACLR showed higher VTTS compared to females post-ACLR (VTTS-op p<0.01)
  • No significant differences in PSIs between groups.
