Letha Y. Griffin,J. Agel,M. J. Albohm,Elizabeth A. Arendt,R. W. Dick,William E. Garrett,J. G. Garrick,Timothy E. Hewett,Laura J. Huston,M. L. Ireland,R. J. Johnson,W. B. Kibler,Scott M. Lephart,Jack L. Lewis,T. N. Lindenfeld,B. R. Mandelbaum,P. M. Marchak,C. C. Teitz,E. M. Wojtys +18 more
TL;DR: The risk factors for noncontact ACL injuries fall into four distinct categories: environmental, anatomic, hormonal, and biomechanical as discussed by the authors, and early data on existing neuromuscular training programs suggest that enhancing body control may decrease ACL injuries in women.

TL;DR: A group of physicians, physical therapists, athletic trainers, biomechanists, epidemiologists, and other scientists interested in this area of research met to review current knowledge on risk factors associated with noncontact anterior cruciate ligament injuries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuromuscular Performance Characteristics in Elite Female Athletes
Laura J. Huston,Edward M. Wojtys +1 more
TL;DR: Although no significant differences were found in either spinal or cortical muscle reaction times, the muscle recruitment order in some female athletes was markedly different and appeared to rely more on their quadriceps muscles in response to anterior tibial translation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk Factors and Predictors of Subsequent ACL Injury in Either Knee After ACL Reconstruction Prospective Analysis of 2488 Primary ACL Reconstructions From the MOON Cohort
TL;DR: Younger age, higher activity level, and allograft graft type were predictors of increased odds of ipsilateral graft failure and higher activity and younger age were found to be risk factors in contralateral ACL tears.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association Between the Menstrual Cycle and Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries in Female Athletes
Edward M. Wojtys,Laura J. Huston,Thomas N. Lindenfeld,Timothy E. Hewett,Mary Lou V. H. Greenfield +4 more
TL;DR: A significant statistical association was found between the stage of the menstrual cycle and the likelihood for an anterior cruciate ligament injury, and there were more injuries than expected in the ovulatory phase of the cycle.
