| Résumé : | Background Single leg squat (SLS) tests help predict anterior cruciate ligament injuries. However, the variability in joint movement during this test has not been fully investigated. The aim of this study was to examine the knee frontal plane movement variability during SLS in patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Methods In this cross-sectional study, we enrolled 56 patients with ACL injury (28 males; 28 females) and 46 healthy subjects (23 males; 23 females). All participants underwent SLS tests. All kinematic variables were joint angle of trunk, pelvis and lower limb, center of gravity (COG), center of pressure (COP). These data were obtained at the frontal plane and the coefficient of variation (CV) were calculated. Multiple comparisons were performed between healthy subjects and the injured leg and uninjured leg of patients with ACL injury. The correlation of the CV in knee varus/valgus range of motion (ROM) with the CV in other kinematic variables were investigated in patients with ACL injury. Results Compared with healthy subjects, patients with ACL injury exhibited significantly larger the CV in knee varus/valgus ROM. A positive correlation was observed between the CV in knee varus/valgus ROM and the CV in pelvic lateral inclination ROM in patients with ACL injury. Conclusions Knee frontal plane movement variability during SLS may help evaluate the risk of ACL injury/re-injury. In addition, pelvic lateral inclination variability during SLS may need to be evaluated in conjunction with knee frontal plane movement variability. |
