Background: After anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), the risk of recurrence can reach 20%, partially due to poor postural control and impaired sensory processing. Lack of flexibility in proprioceptive postural strategy has recently been shown to be a potential risk factor for ACL injury.
Hypothesis/purpose: This study aimed to compare proprioceptive reweighting and postural control between ACLR and controls elite athletes.
Clinical and functional outcomes of 405 Achilles tendon ruptures after a minimum follow-up of 1 year.

Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to compare the outcomes of surgical versus conservative treatments for acute Achilles tendon ruptures, focusing on complications, functional outcomes, and clinical results after at least one year of follow-up.
- Researchers conducted a retrospective analysis involving 405 patients treated in France between 2018 and 2019, gathering data on demographics, treatment methods, rehabilitation, and various clinical tests.
- The results showed that while rerupture rates were similar between both groups, conservative treatment had a higher overall complication rate, while certain functional outcomes favored surgical treatment.
Background: Recent studies have investigated the effect of psychological factors on return to sport (RTS), but none has tested the existence of psychological profiles linked to reinjury anxiety and its links with RTS and reinjury.
Purpose: To assess the effect of different psychological profiles on RTS and reinjury.
Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 2.
Background: Plantar flexion force in recreational athletes after repair of Achilles tendon tears has rarely been reported, due to the lack of a widely available and fast measurement method. Knowledge of this parameter would allow optimisation of muscular and sports recovery. The main objective of this study was to measure the isometric force of the triceps surae at least 1 year after unilateral Achilles-tendon repair, comparatively to the unaffected side, using a portable device.

Methods: A prospective study was performed in 1274 athletes, who had undergone ACL autograft reconstruction.
