“…We did not exclude based upon grade of ankle sprain or whether the ankle sprains were first time or recurrent ankle sprains. Of the sixteen studies assessed for eligibility, only four studies (Man et al, 2007;Mendel et al, 2010;Michlovitz et al, 1988;Sandoval et al, 2010) satisfied the inclusion criteria and were included for analysis.…”

“…Ankle sprain is considered to be a very common type of cadets training injury [17,18]. Further problems, such as instability, chronic pain, are also expected after ankle sprain [19][20][21][22][23][24].…”

“…Many researchers studied the risk factors of lower extremity injuries on various kinds of sports. Hand dominance, age, body mass index (BMI), skill level, and shoe type have been identi ied as the main risk factors [18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. Differences in the measurement techniques, dissimilar baseline risks associated with different sports, disparities in statistical analyses, the differences in methods of data collection and differences in de initions of injury and severity caused the lack of consensus [2].…”

Introduction: Ankle sprain is a widespread impairment in sport groups; this impairment leads to an absence from the workplace. The ankle sprains incidence rates are induced by height, weight, BMI, physical fi tness, level of match, classifi cation of sport, and personal exposure to sport. Methods:A longitudinal case-control study was executed to verify the outcome of risk factors for ankle sprain at a Military Male School between 2012 and 2013 of 4987 people at risk for ankle sprain, a total of 234 cadets sustained new ankle sprains during the study, 432 non-injured cadets randomly selected as the control group.Results: Regarding to the total people at risk in our study the incidence rate was approximately 5/1000 ankle sprain-years. Cadets with ankle sprains had higher weight, BMI and higher scores in Army Physical Fitness test than the control group. Ankle sprain occurred most commonly during athletics (51.4%). Ankle sprain incidence rate did not signifi cantly vary from different athletic competitions after controlling for athlete-exposure. Soccer and Ball Games had the highest ankle sprain incidence rate. Conclusion:Higher weight, increased BMI, greater physical conditioning and athlete exposure to selected sports were all risk factors for ankle sprain.

“…Inflammation is an innate system of cellular and humoral responses following injuries, in which the body removes the injurious stimuli and initiates the healing process 1,2 . In the musculoskeletal system, inflammation plays an active role in the pathophysiology of disparate joint conditions and chronic diseases treated by physical therapists including traumatic joint injuries, such as sprains, fractures, ligament injuries, and contusions [2][3][4] .…”

| Background: Joint inflammation is a common clinical problem in patients treated by physical therapists. The hypothesis of this study is that joint inflammation induces molecular and structural changes in the soleus muscle, which is composed mainly of slow-twitch muscle fibers. Objective: To study the effect of tibiotarsal joint inflammation on muscle fiber cross-sectional area (CSA), gene expression levels (atrogin-1, MuRF1, MyoD, myostatin, p38MAPK, NFκB, TNF-alpha), and TNF-alpha protein in the soleus muscle. Method: Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 periods (2, 7 and 15 days) and assigned to 4 groups (control, sham, inflammation, and immobilization). Results: In the inflammation group at 2 days, MuRF1 and p38MAPK expression had increased, and NFκB mRNA levels had decreased. At 7 days, myostatin expression had decreased. At 7 and 15 days, this group had muscle fiber CSA reduction. At 2 days, the immobilization group showed increased atrogin-1, MuRF1, NFκB, MyoD, and p38MAPK expressions and reduced muscle fiber CSA. At 7 and 15 days, myostatin mRNA levels had increased, and the CSA had decreased. The sham group showed increased p38MAPK and myostatin expressions at 2 and 7 days, respectively. No changes occurred in TNF-alpha gene or protein expression. Conclusion: Acute joint inflammation induces gene expression related to the proteolytic pathway without reduction in muscle fiber CSA. Chronic joint inflammation induced muscle atrophy without up-regulation of important genes belonging to the proteolytic pathway. Thus, muscle adaptation may differ according to the stage of joint inflammation, which suggests that the therapeutic modalities used by physical therapists at each stage should also be different.Keywords: skeletal muscle; joint disease; gene expression; muscle plasticity; physical therapy; rehabilitation.
