Resumen
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the primary structure responsible for controlling anterior-posterior translation and rotational stability of the knee joint. Although ACL reconstruction has long been considered the gold standard among surgical interventions following ACL injury, arthroscopic primary repair techniques have recently regained interest. With advances in minimally invasive surgical procedures, refi...Mostrar más
Descripción detallada
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), one of the key stabilizers of the knee joint, plays a crucial role in maintaining both anteroposterior and rotational stability. The increasing popularity of recreational and competitive sports has contributed to a rising incidence of ACL injuries in recent years. Until the late 1980s, primary repair was widely accepted as the standard treatment for ACL injuries. Although short-t...Mostrar más

Peak Torque (Isokinetic Strength)
Peak torque of the knee flexor and extensor muscles will be measured using an isokinetic dynamometer (Cybex NORM® isokinetic dynamometer, Humac, CA, USA). Measurements will be performed in the following modes: concentric contraction at 60°/s, eccentric contraction at 60°/s, concentric contraction at 180°/s, and concentric contraction at 300°/s. Peak torque values will be recorded for each testing velocity and contraction mode and expressed in Newton-meters (Nm). Unit of Measure: Newton-meter (Nm)
First Day
Extremity Symmetry Index (ESI)
Extremity Symmetry Index will be calculated by comparing the involved and uninvolved limbs using peak torque values obtained from isokinetic testing. Unit of Measure: Percentage (%)
First day
Conventional Hamstring-to-Quadriceps Ratio (H/Q Ratio)
The conventional H/Q ratio will be calculated as the ratio of concentric hamstring peak torque to concentric quadriceps peak torque. Unit of Measure: Ratio
First day
Functional Hamstring-to-Quadriceps Ratio
The functional H/Q ratio will be calculated as the ratio of eccentric hamstring peak torque to concentric quadriceps peak torque. Unit of Measure: Ratio
First day
Functional Range
Functional range will be defined as the angular range in which at least 85% of peak torque is maintained during isokinetic testing. Unit of Measure: Percentage (%)
First Day
Fatigue-Induced Peak Torque Decline
Fatigue-related performance decline will be calculated as the percentage decrease in peak torque following a 33-repetition isokinetic fatigue protocol at 300°/s. Unit of Measure: Percentage (%)
First Day
Muscle Oxygenation
Muscle oxygenation will be assessed using the Train.Red FYER wireless near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) system (Train.Red, Gelderland, Netherlands). The device provides continuous, non-invasive measurements of tissue oxygen saturation (StO₂) and the oxy-deoxyhemoglobin difference (HbDiff). Sensors will be placed over the quadriceps and hamstring muscles following SENIAM guidelines. Muscle oxygenation will be recorded before and immediately after the isokinetic fatigue protocol to evaluate changes in local oxygen utilization and metabolic stress.

Knee Joint Proprioception
Knee proprioception will be assessed using an active joint repositioning test performed on the Cybex NORM® isokinetic system (Humac, CA, USA). Participants will actively reproduce a target angle (30° knee flexion) starting from 90° flexion. Three trials will be recorded, and the absolute angular error will be calculated as the mean difference between the target angle and the reproduced angles. This measure reflects the accuracy of joint position sense and will be used to evaluate proprioceptive function.
First Day
Single Leg Balance
Postural control will be assessed using the KFORCE Plates force platform (Kinvent, Montpellier, France). Participants will perform a single-leg balance task, and Center of Pressure (CoP)-based variables such as mean CoP velocity, path length, sway area, and stabilization time will be recorded. Measurements will be obtained under standardized testing conditions for both limbs.
Second Day
Single Leg Landing
Dynamic stability will be assessed using the KFORCE Plates force platform. Participants will perform a single-leg landing task, and Center of Pressure (CoP)-based variables including stabilization time, CoP displacement, sway area, and CoP velocity will be analyzed. This measure evaluates the participant's ability to achieve stable posture following landing.
Second Day
Knee Laxity
Knee anterior laxity will be assessed using the GNRB® arthrometer at 20° of knee flexion. The primary outcome variable will be Anterior Tibial Translation (ATT) measured in millimeters under standardized forces (134 N and 200 N). The side-to-side difference in ATT and the slope value (stiffness index) will also be recorded to evaluate anterior cruciate ligament integrity. These parameters provide an objective and quantitative measure of ligamentous stability.
First Day
IKDC Subjective Knee Evaluation
The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) Subjective Knee Evaluation Form will be used to assess patient-reported knee symptoms, function, and sports activity levels. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better knee function and fewer symptoms. This measure provides a validated assessment of functional recovery following ACL surgery.
First Day
ACL-RSI (Return to Sport Index)
The Anterior Cruciate Ligament-Return to Sport after Injury (ACL-RSI) scale will be administered to evaluate psychological readiness to return to sport. The 12-item scale assesses emotions, confidence, and risk appraisal related to returning to physical activity. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating greater psychological readiness. This measure allows comparison of psychological recovery after ACL reconstruction and primary repair.
