(1) Background: Optimal neuromuscular, Lumbo-Pelvic-Hip Complex, and lower extremity control are associated with decreased risk factors for secondary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. This study aimed to analyze any asymmetries and malalignments in the Lumbo-Pelvic-Hip Complex and the lower limbs at 6 months after ACL reconstruction (ACLR). (2) Methods: We conducted an exploratory retrospective observational single-center study in patients during the outpatient postoperative rehabilitation program at ICOT (Latina, Italy). From January 2014 to June 2020, 181 patients were recruited, but only 100 patients (86 male 28 ± 0.6 years, 178 ± 0.5 height; 14 female 24 ± 2.0 years, 178 ± 3.0 height) were eligible for the inclusion criteria and studied 6 months after ACL reconstruction surgery. (3) Statistical analysis: Student's -tests and Pearson's product-moment correlation coefficient were used to determine significant differences between affected and non-affected limbs and variables' association. (4) Results: The study shows a decrease in neuromuscular control of the Lumbo-Pelvic-Hip Complex and dynamic adaptive valgus of the knee at 6 months after ACLR (mean difference between pathological and healthy limb of dynamic adaptive valgus was -10.11 ± 8.19° 95% CI -14.84 to -9.34; mean value was 16.3 ± 6.8° 95% CI 14.04 to 18.55 for healthy limb and 4.2 ± 3.1° 95% CI 3.15 to 5.21 for pathological limb, < 0.0001). The results also showed a relationship between dynamic adaptive valgus and contralateral pelvic drop (r = 0.78, 95% CI 0.62 to 0.88, magnitude of correlation very large). (5) Conclusions: The analysis showed an associative correlation between decreased postural control of the pelvic girdle and dynamic adaptive valgus of the knee in 38% of patients; this study highlights the usefulness of the Single-Leg Squat Test (SLST) as a clinical/functional assessment to evaluate the rehabilitation process and as a preventive tool to reduce the risk of second ACL injuries during the return to sport.
(1) 背景:最佳的神经肌肉、腰骶骨盆髋复合体和下肢控制与降低二次前交叉韧带(ACL)损伤的风险因素相关。本研究旨在分析 ACL 重建(ACLR)后 6 个月时腰骶骨盆髋复合体和下肢的任何不对称和排列不齐。 (2) 方法:我们在 ICOT(意大利拉蒂纳)的门诊术后康复计划中对患者进行了一项探索性回顾性观察性单中心研究。2014 年 1 月至 2020 年 6 月,共招募了 181 名患者,但只有 100 名患者(86 名男性,28 ± 0.6 岁,178 ± 0.5 身高;14 名女性,24 ± 2.0 岁,178 ± 3.0 身高)符合纳入标准,并在 ACLR 后 6 个月进行了研究。 (3) 统计分析:使用学生 t 检验和 Pearson 积差相关系数来确定患侧和非患侧之间以及变量之间的显著差异。 (4) 结果:研究表明,在 ACLR 后 6 个月时,腰骶骨盆髋复合体的神经肌肉控制和膝关节动态适应性外翻能力下降(患侧和健侧动态适应性外翻的平均差值为-10.11 ± 8.19°95%CI-14.84 至-9.34;健侧平均值为 16.3 ± 6.8°95%CI14.04 至 18.55,患侧为 4.2 ± 3.1°95%CI3.15 至 5.21,<0.0001)。结果还表明,动态适应性外翻与对侧骨盆下降之间存在关系(r = 0.78,95%CI0.62 至 0.88,相关性大小为非常大)。 (5) 结论:分析表明,在 38%的患者中,骨盆带姿势控制下降与膝关节动态适应性外翻之间存在关联;本研究强调了单腿深蹲测试(SLST)作为一种临床/功能评估的有用性,可用于评估康复过程,并作为一种预防工具,以降低重返运动时二次 ACL 损伤的风险。
