Self-Reported and Performance-Based Functional Outcomes After Surgical Repair of Proximal Hamstring Avulsions
TL;DR: Using both validated self-reported and performance-based outcome measures after surgical repair of proximal hamstring avulsions, minor pain and limitations to activities of daily living were seen.

Abstract: Background:Because a proximal hamstring avulsion results in residual loss of function, surgical repair is recommended Few studies have investigated postoperative function with validated outcomesPurpose:To examine lower extremity function after surgical repair of proximal hamstring avulsions using validated self-reported and performance-based functional outcomesStudy Design:Case series; Level of evidence, 4Methods:Operative records from 2006 to 2010 were retrospectively reviewed in 3 hospitals A total of 39 patients who had undergone surgical repair of a proximal hamstring avulsion were identified, and 36 met the inclusion criteria Thirty-one patients completed questionnaires with demographic background data and quality of life–related questions: the Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS) and the Proximal Hamstring Injury Questionnaire (PHIQ) Thirty patients were evaluated using a Biodex dynamometer for isokinetic quadriceps and hamstring strength measurements at a velocity of 60 deg/s, and 27 pati

TL;DR: Surgical repair of proximal hamstring avulsions appears to result in a subjective highly satisfying outcome, however, decreased strength, residual pain, and decreased activity level were reported by a relevant number of patients.

Clinician-friendly lower extremity physical performance tests in athletes: a systematic review of measurement properties and correlation with injury. Part 2—the tests for the hip, thigh, foot and ankle including the star excursion balance test
TL;DR: There is relatively limited research-backed information on PPTs of the lower extremity in athletes, and the terminology used to name and describe the tests and methodology by which the tests were conducted was inconsistent.

John P. Vardiman,Jacob A. Siedlik,Trent J. Herda,Will C. Hawkins,Michael A. Cooper,Zachary A. Graham,Jake A. Deckert,Philip M. Gallagher +7 more
TL;DR: There were no significant differences in MTS, PROM, PASTQ, MVCPT, IL-6 and TNF-α between the TL or CL, but a significant decrease in the perception of function and a significant increase in pain for the TL were found following IASTM.

Guidelines for the process of cross-cultural adaptation of self-report measures.
TL;DR: The guidelines described in this document are based on a review of cross-cultural adaptation in the medical, sociological, and psychological literature and led to the description of a thorough adaptation process designed to maximize the attainment of semantic, idiomatic, experiential, and conceptual equivalence between the source and target questionnaires.

The Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS): Scale Development, Measurement Properties, and Clinical Application
TL;DR: The LEFS is reliable, and construct validity was supported by comparison with the SF-36, and the sensitivity to change of the LEFS was superior to that of theSF-36 in this population.

Abnormal lower limb symmetry determined by function hop tests after anterior cruciate ligament rupture
TL;DR: This study assessed the sensitivity of four different types of one-legged hop tests to deter mine alterations in lower limb function in ACL deficient knees and found the tests have a high specificity and low false- positive rates.

Hop Testing Provides a Reliable and Valid Outcome Measure During Rehabilitation After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
TL;DR: The results show that the described series of hop tests provide a reliable and valid performance-based outcome measure for patients undergoing rehabilitation following ACL reconstruction, and these findings support the use and facilitate the interpretation ofHop tests for research and clinical practice.

A New Concept For Isokinetic Hamstring: Quadriceps Muscle Strength Ratio
Per Aagaard,Erik B. Simonsen,Erik B. Simonsen,Stig Peter Magnusson,Stig Peter Magnusson,Benny Larsson,Benny Larsson,Poul Dyhre-Poulsen,Poul Dyhre-Poulsen +8 more
TL;DR: The functional hamstring:quadriceps ratio for fast knee extension yielded a 1:1 relationship, which increased with extended knee joint position, indicating a significant capacity of the hamstring muscles to provide dynamic knee joint stability in these conditions.
