Objectives: To describe the changes in hip adductor strength of professional women's football players over a season.
Design: One-season prospective study.
Setting: Facilities of a national first division club.
Objectives: To describe the perceptions of physiotherapists and the injury prevention practices implemented within elite women's football clubs in Brazil.
Design: Cross-sectional study.
Setting: Online survey.
Objectives: To elucidate the injury profile in Brazilian elite women's football.
Design: Prospective cohort study.
Methods: Time-loss injuries, along with match and training exposure, were monitored throughout a full season in four Brazilian elite clubs.
Background: The International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-33) is a reference instrument among the Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) to assess people with hip disorders, including femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome. Older questionnaires such as the Harris Hip Score, or its modified version (mHHS), and the Hip Outcome Score (HOS), through the full version or its subscales (Activities of Daily Living-ADL; and Sports) are still used in the clinical setting and their construct validity is so far underexplored.
Objective: To assess the construct validity of mHHS and HOS-ADL compared with iHOT-33 by hypothesis testing in a large sample of patients with FAI syndrome.
Background: The single leg bridge test (SLBT) has been introduced in the sports context as a way of estimating hamstring muscle capacity for prevention and rehabilitation of hamstring strain injuries.
Purpose: The primary aim was to examine the association between SLBT scores with concentric and eccentric knee flexor peak torques. Secondarily, this study aimed examine the association of between-limb asymmetries provided by SLBT and isokinetic tests.
