A comparison of knee joint motion patterns between men and women in selected athletic tasks.

TL;DR: Gender differences in LE coordination variability may be associated with the increased incidence of ACL injury in women and if women exhibit less flexible coordination patterns during competition, they may be less able to adapt to the environmental perturbations experienced during sports.

TL;DR: The premise that altered hip kinematics and kinetics may influence loading at the knee is supported, and it appeared that female athletes moved into greater hip internal rotation and used less sagittal plane hip motion during the early deceleration phase of the cutting maneuver.

TL;DR: Modulation of activity and timing of ACL agonist musculature from before to after training resulted in normal quadriceps-hamstring balance and increased active stiffness, which may reduce the risk of biomechanical strain injury among a high risk population.

TL;DR: Unrestricted by field of view or low sampling rate, this novel approach provides a means to measure kinematic patterns that elevate ACL strains and that provide new insights into ACL injury mechanisms.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare two straight line regression models and conclude that the Straight Line Regression Equation does not measure the strength of the Straight-line Relationship, but instead is a measure of the relationship between two straight lines.

TL;DR: This book brings together a number of procedures developed for regression problems in current use and includes material that either has not previously appeared in a textbook or if it has appeared is not generally available.

TL;DR: The relatively small number of body surface markers used in the VICON system render it easy to implement for use in routine clinical gait evaluations and should be a useful reference for describing and comparing pathologic gait patterns.

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for photogrammetric data reduction without the necessity for neither fiducial marks nor initial approximations for inner and outer orientation parameters of the camera has been developed.
