Background: The high prevalence of injury in sports necessitates the use of screening tests and injury prevention programs. Dysfunctions in the neuromuscular control of the trunk or TD (Trunk Dysfunction) are directly related to athletic performance and injury. The present study aims to study the prevalence of neuromuscular dysfunctions especially TD among the athletic population of rocket, team and water sports.Results: For data analysis, it’s used the analysis of variance of (ANOVA) and also the Chi-square tests. The ANOVA test did not show a significant difference between tuck jump test scores among the three sports; the Chi-square test, on the other hand, demonstrated people with and without TD. The number of people with TD was 12 (40%) in table tennis, 6 (20%) in cycling, and 9 (30%) in swimming respectively.Conclusions: It can be concluded that the most and the least people with TD were table tennis and cycling, respectively. According to the direct relationship between TD and sports injury, it’s possible to reduce the risk of injury by an accurate and timely screening and assessing of TD in future athletes, by this, it seems that the quality level and the implementation strategies of techniques, the skills and the activities of athletes can be improved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
