O que nos evidencia a literatura científica sobre os protocolos de reabilitação do ligamento cruzado anterior? Uma revisão sistemática de guidelines
A Systematic Review Of Rehabilitation Guidelines On ACL Injury
To analyze the variability and longitudinal stress-related changes in ulnar variance (UV) in a group of immature artistic gymnasts. The relationship between UV and a group of biological and training variables was also investigated.
Prospective cohort study.

Does pre-exercise static stretch induces to acute impairments on the peak torque? An evidence-based systematic review and meta-analysis
Os efeitos agudos do alongamento estático no peak torque
Ulnar variance is the relative length of ulna in relation to the radius. This morphological variation in the distal epiphyseal structures may lead to symptoms or pathologic changes to the wrist joint. In order to evaluate and quantify distal radioulnar length discrepancy, different imaging techniques are used, depending on the individual's maturity...
O objectivo geral deste estudo foi analisar e caracterizar as
lesões ocorridas ao longo da época desportiva 2006/2007 na
totalidade das ginastas portuguesas de competição. Foram
observadas 79 atletas de Ginástica Artística Feminina, com idades
entre os 6 e 18 anos, treinando em média 14,15h/semana.
As lesões foram categorizadas em função da etiolog...
Purpose
This study was to investigate the association between ulnar variance (UV) and biological and training characteristics, handgrip, and wrist pain in a group of 23 Portuguese skeletally immature male gymnasts (aged 11.2 ± 2.5 years).
Methods
Left and right UV was obtained using Hafner's procedure and skeletal age was determined by the Tanner–...
The aims of this study were to investigate the ulnar variance in a group of skeletally immature female gymnasts of different age and skill level and to investigate the left-right differences in ulnar variance and its relationship with biological and training characteristics and handgrip strength.
Thirty-three Portuguese skeletally immature female g...
Sports practice is not exempt of risks and each sport discipline presents a tendency for a specific type of injury inherent to its practice. The purpose of this study was to analyze and characterize the injuries occurred during the 2006/2007 season in all competitive Portuguese gymnasts. The sample was composed by 79 female artistic gymnasts, aged...
The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of anthropometric and maturity characteristics in the occurrence of injury in Portuguese female artistic gymnasts. Sample was composed by 79 female artistic gymnasts, aged between 6 and 18 years old. The anthropometrical measures analysed were weight, height, tricipital and sub-scapular skinfolds a...
