Prospective evaluation of spinal reflex excitability and perceived ankle instability following acute lateral ankle sprain in collegiate basketball players
Terada, M., Taniyama, D., Isaka, T.Published in BMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation (2025)“…Results There were no significantly differences in the pre-injury Hmax:Mmax ratio of the fibularis longus between athletes who sustained LAS and those who did not (P > 0.05). A receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed poor diagnostic utility of the Hmax:Mmax ratio for predicting LAS (area under curve = 0.52, 95% CI: 0.33-0.70, P = 0.88). …”
