Don't take their word for it: Investigating the diagnostic accuracy of history elements for anterior cruciate ligament tears
Don't take their word for it: Investigating the diagnostic accuracy of history elements for anterior cruciate ligament tears
The primary objective of this study was to investigate the association between patient‐reported history elements and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears. The secondary objectives were to evaluate the predictive validity of history elements and ...

Digital hand-held arthrometry is a reliable and accurate adjunct for diagnosing acute anterior cruciate ligament tears
Purpose To evaluate the intrarater reliability and predictive validity of Lachmeter® measurements for diagnosing acute anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears, and to propose diagnostic thresholds. ...
The Lever Sign Test Demonstrates Limited Clinical Utility for Diagnosing Full-Thickness Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tears After a Traumatic Knee Injury
The Lever Sign Test Demonstrates Limited Clinical Utility for Diagnosing Full-Thickness Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tears After a Traumatic Knee Injury
Current systematic reviews with meta-analyses have identified the lever sign test as the best clinical examination for ruling out an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear, but the included studies have methodological limitations that could bias the ...
Inline dynamometry provides reliable measurements of quadriceps strength in healthy and ACL-reconstructed individuals and is a valid substitute for isometric electromechanical dynamometry following ACL reconstruction
Inline dynamometry provides reliable measurements of quadriceps strength in healthy and ACL-reconstructed individuals and is a valid substitute for isometric electromechanical dynamometry following ACL reconstruction
Quadriceps strength testing is recommended to guide rehabilitation and mitigate the risk of second injury following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Hand-held dynamometry is a practical alternative to electromechanical dynamometry but demonstrates insufficient reliability and criterion validity in healthy and ACL-reconstructed participants respectively. The purpose of this study is to investigate the reliability and concurrent validity of inline dynamometry for measuring quadriceps strength.
