Objectives: Systematically review the literature addressing age, sex, previous injury, and intervention program as influencing factors of the Landing Error Scoring System.

Design: Systematic review with meta-analysis.

Methods: Three databases (PubMed, Web of Science®, and Scopus®) were searched on 1 April 2020. Original studies using the Landing Error Scoring System as primary outcome and exploring age, sex, previous injury, and intervention program were included, assessed for risk of bias, and critically appraised. Three meta-analyses were performed using one random and two mixed effect models with dependent variables: sex, previous injury and intervention program, respectively. Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation was used to evaluate the strength of the evidence. PROSPERO registration number CRD42018107210.

Results: Fifty-two studies were included. Pooled data indicated that females have higher Landing Error Scoring System scores than males (p<0.001, mean difference=0.6 error). Participants with previous anterior cruciate ligament injury have higher LESS scores than healthy controls (p=0.004, mean difference 1.2 error). Neuromuscular training programs lasting a minimum of six weeks and other intervention programs decrease Landing Error Scoring System scores (p<0.001, mean difference 1.2 error and p=0.042, mean difference 0.5 error, respectively). There is limited evidence suggesting that age may influence Landing Error Scoring System scores in clinically meaningful manner. Overall, Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation ratings suggest very low strength of evidence.

Conclusions: History of anterior cruciate ligament injury and undertaking neuromuscular training for a minimum of six weeks meaningfully altered Landing Error Scoring System scores. These findings, however, should be interpreted cautiously considering the very low Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation rating of the evidence.

Development of a Real-Time Single-Leg Hop Movement Quality Assessment to Identify Lower-Extremity Biomechanical Risk Factors.

J Sport Rehabil

December 2024

School of Applied Health Sciences and Wellness, College of Health Sciences and Professions, Ohio University, Athens, OH, USA.

Context: The single-leg hop is based solely on performance with no measure of movement quality. The purpose of this study was to (1) develop a real-time screening tool to capture single-leg functional performance and movement quality and (2) to provide preliminary validation (criterion validity) of a trained clinician's real-time movement quality assessment with 3D kinematics.

Study Design: Cross-sectional.

Foot position during landing directly influences knee mechanics. Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine success in practicing, repeating, and transferring a desired foot progression angle (FPA) during landing, as well as changes in knee mechanics. Twenty females were randomly assigned to a control or verbal instruction group.

Context: The Open Landing Error Scoring System (OpenLESS) is a novel development aimed at automating the LESS for assessment of lower extremity movement quality during a jump-landing task. With increasing utilization of clinical measures to monitor outcomes and limited time during clinical visits for a lengthy analysis of functional movement, there is a pressing need to extend automation efforts. Addressing these issues, OpenLESS is an open-source tool that utilizes a freely available markerless motion capture system to automate the LESS using three-dimensional kinematics.

In order to bring stimuli of interest into our central field of vision, we perform saccadic eye movements. After every saccade, the error between the predicted and actual landing position is monitored. In the laboratory, artificial post-saccadic errors are created by displacing the target during saccade execution.

Background: The assessment of performance during functional tasks and the quality of movement execution are crucial metrics in the rehabilitation of patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. While measuring performance is feasible in clinical practice, quantifying joint kinematics poses greater challenges. The aim of this study was to investigate whether smartphone video, using deep neural networks for human pose detection, can enable the clinicians not only to measure performance in functional tasks but also to assess joint kinematics.
