Summary: This study investigated the changes in 30° and 60° position sense in patients with ACL injury at different time points after injury and reconstruction. The results showed that ACL injury had a greater impact on 30° position sense, while the impact on 60° position sense was smaller. Proprioception recovery training should be initiated early after injury for better outcomes.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between muscle strength, joint kinesthesia, and plantar tactile sensation and dynamic and static postural stability in patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The results showed that muscle strength was related to dynamic postural stability, joint kinesthesia was related to both dynamic and static postural stability, and plantar tactile sensation was related to static postural stability. Muscle strength had a higher level of influence on dynamic stability compared to joint kinesthesia, while plantar tactile sensation had a higher level of influence on static stability compared to joint kinesthesia.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to assess the outcome of ACLR with an accelerated rehabilitation protocol and compare it to a conservative rehabilitation protocol. It was found that the accelerated rehabilitation protocol did not result in a higher rate of recurrent instability or revision surgery compared to the conservative rehabilitation protocol.

Summary: This study aimed to define geriatric rehabilitation and admission criteria based on the Maltese population through discussions with clinical experts. The panel agreed on the criteria for appropriate inpatient geriatric rehabilitation admission in Malta, as well as the need for a multidisciplinary approach, standardized assessment processes, and the use of digital health.

Summary: This study investigated the prevalence of an increased posterior tibial slope (PTS) in a population with ACL graft insufficiencies and examined whether the prevalence and absolute PTS increased with an increasing number of graft insufficiencies. The survival time of the first ACL graft was also evaluated. The results showed that there was a 35% prevalence of increased PTS in the studied patient cohort, and patients with increased PTS had a shorter survival time of the first ACL graft.

Summary: Ethical allocation of scare medical resources is a challenge in physical medicine and rehabilitation, and a study explores the admission criteria and ethical issues in a rehabilitation unit of a large university medical center. The review highlights the importance of addressing ethical considerations in selection procedures and standardizing access to inpatient rehabilitation.

Summary: Individuals with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) exhibit limb underloading behaviors during walking. This study evaluates if underloading behaviors are apparent in ACLR limbs when using cumulative load metrics and how load metrics change in response to walking speed modifications.

Summary: In this study, knees with ACLR using a BTB autograft did not show significant early signs of posttraumatic osteoarthritis compared to the contralateral uninjured knee 2 years after ACLR. Larger studies are needed to confirm these findings and accurately assess the difference between the operative and contralateral knees.

Summary: The study found that performing lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) can reduce graft failure rates. However, the effect of ACLR + LET on tibial motion and graft forces with increasing posterior tibial slope (PTS) has not been clarified. The results showed that increasing PTS led to a linear increase in graft forces. Compared with ACLR alone, ACLR + LET can reduce graft forces, while reducing the slope has a greater impact on reducing graft forces.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and characteristics of patients self-reporting a completely better status after ACL reconstruction. The majority of patients considered themselves completely better at 2 years post-surgery. Thresholds associated with achieving a completely better status for 2-year PRO scores were more reliable indicators compared to changes in scores.

Summary: This study evaluated the effect of tibiofemoral rotational malalignment on graft failure after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and found that increased tibiofemoral rotation angle (TFA) was associated with graft failure. Measuring the TFA can help surgeons consider additional factors before ACLR for a successful outcome.

Summary: In patients undergoing ACL reconstruction surgery, the prevalence of ramp lesions is approximately 15.5%, with meniscocapsular junction tears being the most common subtype. Partial inferior tears are most likely to be missed on preoperative MRI scans. Gross pivot shift is significantly associated with complete ramp tears.

Summary: This study compared the rates of septic arthritis after different types of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgeries and evaluated the potential risk factors for infection. The results showed that the use of quadriceps tendon autograft (QT) had the lowest risk of postoperative septic arthritis.

Summary: The study found significant variations in the administration and interpretation of RTS hop tests among athletes after ACL reconstruction, with many authors failing to report key methodological details. To improve standardization and accurate data collection, researchers should provide clearer descriptions of how hop tests are performed.

Summary: The FIT Teens program shows promise in improving hip abduction strength and body biomechanics, indicating improvements in stability during functional movements. Differences were observed between the FIT Teens and CBT groups in terms of peak hip internal moment in the transverse plane, with decreased hip adduction during the drop vertical jump in the FIT Teens group.
