This report describes a case of bilateral acute ankle syndesmosis injuries in a 15-year-old male basketball player. The patient had a background of previous inversion injuries but no symptoms of chronic pain or instability. The case report illustrates the importance of clinical suspicion when evaluating acute syndesmosis injuries in conjunction with radiographic assessments in primary care. This is the first reported case of such injury in bilateral limbs.

Musculoskeletal model predictions sensitivity to upper body mass scaling during gait.
Comput Biol Med

Khalifa University, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Electronic address:
Musculoskeletal modeling based on inverse dynamics provides a cost-effective non-invasive means for calculating intersegmental joint reaction forces and moments, solely relying on kinematic data, easily obtained from smart wearables. On the other hand, the accuracy and precision of such models strongly hinge upon the selected scaling methodology tailored to subject-specific data. This study investigates the impact of upper body mass distribution on internal and external kinetics computed using a comprehensive musculoskeletal model during level walking in both normal weight and obese individuals.

: The impact of shoe stiffness on running biomechanics is well-documented, while the specific effect on the performance of biomechanically distinct groups such as novice runners and experienced runners is still largely unexplored. The study aimed to evaluate the biomechanical effect of different shoe longitudinal bending stiffness on the lower limb during running in novice runners and experienced runners. : Twelve experienced runners and ten novice runners ran at a speed of 4.

Objective: Aim: To study the ATFL length among asymptomatic population of young patients on both joints by using the method of ultrasound examination of the ankle joint and applying the inversion stress test.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: the length of the ATFL was measured among 60 boys and 60 girls during the research. Sonography was performed on both joints, in each of the two studied positions, three times per position in order to obtain the average ligament length.
Biomechanics of the bobsleigh push phase.

January 2025
Institute of Biomechanics and Orthopaedics, German Sport University Cologne, Cologne, Germany.
The purpose of this work was to provide a fundamental, in-depth analysis of kinematics and kinetics of the bobsleigh push phase to establish a basis for performance analysis and enhancement. Fifteen elite male athletes performed maximal effort push starts, while ground reaction forces (GRF) and 3D marker trajectories were simultaneously recorded for ground contacts of different sub-sections of the push phase (start acceleration phase: first and second ground contact after the initial push-off from the start block, acceleration phase: 10 m and high-velocity phase: 30 m). To obtain a comprehensive view of the push phase, whole-body kinematics as well as joint kinetics were analysed and compared across the push phase.

Irreducible ankle fracture-dislocations due to posterior tibialis tendon (PTT) interposition in the distal tibiofibular and tibiotalar joints are rarely reported, and their diagnoses are often missed and delayed. In addition, previous reports lacked a longer clinical follow-up period, and objective and subjective evaluations of such cases have not been reported. A 22-year-old man sustained an open fracture-dislocation of the ankle joint associated with a distal third of the fibular shaft fracture and diastasis of the distal tibiofibular joint.
