REVIEW
Is muscular strength a predictor for primary or secondary ACL injury? A scoping review of prospective studies.
Physical Therapy in Sport 2023 May
OBJECTIVE: To identify strength-related risk factors of ACL injury by conducting a scoping review of the peer-reviewed literature.
METHODS: PubMed and EBSCO host (CINAHL Complete, MEDLINE Complete, SPORTDiscus) were searched from inception to August 2022. Prospective studies that examined strength strength-related risk factors for ACL injury (primary and secondary) were included. PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews guided data charting/extraction.
RESULTS: 17 studies were included (eight primary ACL injury, nine secondary ACL injury). Knee flexor strength was the most studied predictor (10 studies), followed by hip abductor strength (9 studies). Across studies, measures of muscle performance were inconsistent. Significant strength-related risk factors were reported in seven of 17 studies. Potential strength-related risk factors of primary ACL injury included measures of hip strength (abductor or external rotator) and knee strength (knee flexor/extensor ratio and knee extensor strength symmetry) for secondary ACL injury. Limited/conflicting evidence was found for all strength-related risk factors.
CONCLUSION: Measures of muscle strength appear to be predictive of primary and secondary ACL injury in a subset of identified studies. The heterogeneity of study designs and lack of standardization related to strength testing make it difficult to determine the overall impact of strength in predicting ACL injury.
