Article Synopsis
- - The study focuses on the factors that affect performance in single leg hop and vertical jump tests one year after ACL reconstruction, highlighting the importance of restoring both involved and uninvolved sides for athletes' recovery.
- - Key findings show that on the involved side, knee extensor strength, balance, and sex significantly influence hop performance, whereas for the uninvolved side, balance and flexor strength play a crucial role.
- - The results emphasize that maintaining good balance (measured by the Y balance test) is critical for both sides, with anteroposterior stability being the only common factor in hop test performance.

The Fullerton Advanced Balance (FAB) scale is a multi-item balance assessment test designed to measure balance in relatively higher functioning individuals. The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability and validity of the Korean version of the FAB in children with cerebral palsy (CP). A total of 40 children with CP participated in this study.

Objectives: To compare the effects of conventional core stabilization and dynamic neuromuscular stabilization (DNS) on anticipatory postural adjustment (APA) time, balance performance, and fear of falls in chronic hemiparetic stroke.
Design: Two-group randomized controlled trial with pretest-posttest design.
Setting: Hospital rehabilitation center.
Purpose: To determine the effects of a novel dynamic neuromuscular stabilization (DNS) technique on gross motor function, diaphragm movement, and activation of the external oblique (EO) and internal oblique (IO)/transversus abdominal (TrA) muscles in participants with cerebral palsy (CP).
Method: Fifteen participants with CP (7 females) underwent DNS intervention for 30 minutes/day, 3 days a week for 4 weeks. Gross motor function, diaphragm movement, and muscle activation were determined using a gross motor function measure (GMFM-88), ultrasound, and electromyography measurements, respectively, before and after the DNS core stabilization intervention.
Background: Gait impairments from a neuromuscular imbalance are crucial issues in cerebral palsy. The purpose of our study was to compare the effects of the assistive tubing gait (ATG) and assistive-resistive tubing gait (ARTG) on improving the vasti and hamstring muscle imbalance during the initial contact to mid-stance phases in individuals with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy (CP).
Methods: Fourteen age-matched individuals including seven normal individuals (11.
This study investigated the EMG characteristics and the kinematics of the trunk and lower extremity during the sit-to-stand (STS) task while wearing 1-, 4-, and 8-cm high-heeled shoes. We examined differences in the EMG data of the internal oblique, erector spinae, medial hamstring, and rectus femoris muscles during the STS task. The motion of the hip joint during an STS task was measured with a NorAngle Electrogoniometer System.
