Female athletes subjected to various types of impact loading, especially over a long period of time, may experience changes in their pelvic orientation, which may affect their sport performance and increase the likelihood of injury. The aim of the present study was to determine whether female athletes involved in high-impact loading sports (HILS), odd-impact loading sports (OILS), and repetitive non-impact loading sports (NILS) demonstrate changes in pelvis orientation compared to non-athletes (NATH). Pelvic orientation was determined using Euler/Cardan angles, calculated from the coordinates of the right, and left anterior superior iliac spines and pubic symphysis via a novel method. Two-way ANOVA tests showed significant differences between groups for pelvis position in the frontal plane ( < 0.05), with HILS and OILS demonstrating greater pelvic obliquity compared to NILS athletes and NATH. Significant main effects were also obtained for directions within the sagittal plane ( < 0.001). Significant within-group differences were observed in sagittal pelvic position among female athletes engaged in NILS ( < 0.01) and non-athletes (NATH) ( < 0.05), with a greater anterior pelvic tilt compared to posterior. Our findings suggest that pelvis orientation in female athletes across sports is influenced by sport-specific impact loads, potentially affecting performance and injury occurrence.
遭受各种类型冲击负荷的女性运动员，尤其是长期如此，可能会经历骨盆方向的变化，这可能会影响她们的运动表现并增加受伤的可能性。本研究的目的是确定参与高冲击负荷运动（HILS）、偶尔冲击负荷运动（OILS）和重复性非冲击负荷运动（NILS）的女性运动员与非运动员（NATH）相比，骨盆方向是否有变化。骨盆方向通过欧拉/卡丹角来确定，该角度通过一种新颖的方法从右、左髂前上棘和耻骨联合的坐标计算得出。双向方差分析测试显示，在额状面的骨盆位置上，各组之间存在显著差异（<0.05），与NILS运动员和NATH相比，HILS和OILS表现出更大的骨盆倾斜度。在矢状面内的方向上也获得了显著的主效应（<0.001）。在从事NILS的女性运动员（<0.01）和非运动员（NATH）（<0.05）中，观察到矢状骨盆位置存在显著的组内差异，骨盆前倾大于后倾。我们的研究结果表明，不同运动项目的女性运动员的骨盆方向受特定运动冲击负荷的影响，这可能会影响运动表现和受伤发生率。
