Published on: June 11, 2017
Resumen
La prueba de la laxitud ligamentosa en atletas no predijo el riesgo de lesiones articulares. Este estudio no encontró ninguna correlación entre la laxitud articular y la ocurrencia o el tipo de lesión en estudiantes atletas.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Medicina Deportiva Medicina Deportiva es una especialidad médica.
- La ortopedia es la ortopedia.
- La biomecánica es la biomecánica.
Sus antecedentes:
- La laxitud ligamentosa a menudo se considera un factor de riesgo de lesiones articulares en los atletas.
- Las hipótesis anteriores sugieren un vínculo entre la laxitud articular y la predisposición a las lesiones.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Evaluar el valor predictivo de las pruebas de laxitud ligamentosa para el riesgo de lesiones articulares en atletas de secundaria.
- Para determinar si la laxitud ligamentosa puede identificar a los atletas propensos a tipos específicos de lesiones.
Principales métodos:
- La laxitud ligamentosa se probó en jugadores de fútbol masculinos, y jugadores de baloncesto masculinos y femeninos.
- Para la comparación, se incluyó un grupo de control de estudiantes de secundaria que no eran atletas.
- Se recopilaron datos de lesiones y se compararon con las mediciones de laxitud.
Principales resultados:
- No se encontró una correlación significativa entre la laxitud ligamentosa y la aparición de lesiones articulares.
- El tipo de lesión articular sufrida por los atletas no se correlacionó con sus niveles de laxitud ligamentaria.
Conclusiones:
- La prueba de la laxitud ligamentosa no es un método confiable para predecir la predisposición a lesiones articulares en atletas de secundaria.
- Los hallazgos actuales desafían la creencia generalizada de que la laxitud articular aumenta directamente el riesgo de lesiones en esta población.

Elastin is Responsible for Tissue Elasticity
Elastic fiber contains the protein elastin along with lesser amounts of other proteins and glycoproteins. The main property of elastin is that it will return to its original shape after being stretched or compressed. Elastic fibers are prominent in elastic tissues found in skin and the elastic ligaments of the vertebral column.
Ligaments and tendons are made of dense regular connective tissue, but in ligaments not all fibers are parallel. Dense regular elastic tissue contains elastin fibers and...

Relaxation of Skeletal Muscles
The period of muscle contraction primarily influences the duration of stimulation at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ), the presence of free calcium ions in the sarcoplasm, and the availability of energy or ATP to support contractions.
When an action potential reaches the axon terminal, it depolarizes the membrane and opens voltage-gated sodium channels. Sodium ions enter the cell, further depolarizing the presynaptic membrane. This depolarization causes voltage-gated calcium channels to open.

Disorders of the Skeletal Muscle
The clinical conditions affecting the skeletal muscle tissue are broadly categorized as musculoskeletal and neuromuscular disorders.
Musculoskeletal disorders
Musculoskeletal disorders involve injuries and conditions affecting the skeletal muscles and associated connective tissues. These disorders can arise from acute biomechanical stresses or chronic overuse and can occur across different age groups. Common injuries include sprains, fractures, and muscular strains, often resulting from...

Normal Strain under Axial Loading
Normal strain under axial loading is an important concept in the field of mechanics of materials. Axial loading implies the application of a force along the axis of a material, like a column or bar. This force can either compress or stretch the material. In the context of axial loading, normal strain is the deformation experienced by the material in the direction of the loading force. It's calculated as the change in length divided by the original length of the material. This unitless ratio...
Hooke's Law
Hooke's law, a pivotal principle in material science, establishes that the strain a material undergoes is directly proportional to the applied stress, defined by a factor called the modulus of elasticity or Young's modulus.
Relation between Poisson's ratio, Modulus of Elasticity and Modulus of Rigidity
Deformation occurs in axial and transverse directions when an axial load is applied to a slender bar. This deformation impacts the cubic element within the bar, transforming it into either a rectangular parallelepiped or a rhombus, contingent on its orientation. This transformation process induces shearing strain. Axial loading elicits both shearing and normal strains. Applying an axial load instigates equal normal and shearing stresses on elements oriented at a 45° angle to the load axis.
