Noncontact anterior cruciate ligament injuries: risk factors and prevention strategies References:

TL;DR: Early data on existing neuromuscular training programs suggest that enhancing body control may decrease ACL injuries in women and further investigation is needed prior to instituting prevention programs related to the other risk factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Noncontact anterior cruciate ligament injuries: risk factors and prevention strategies.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding and Preventing Noncontact Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries A Review of the Hunt Valley II Meeting, January 2005

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 Article

The sensorimotor system, part I: the physiologic basis of functional joint stability.

TL;DR: The nomenclature and physiologic mechanisms responsible for functional joint stability are defined and recognition and understanding the complexities involved will facilitate the continued development and institution of management strategies based on scientific rationales.
Journal Article

The Sensorimotor System, Part II: The Role of Proprioception in Motor Control and Functional Joint Stability.

TL;DR: Although controversy remains over the precise contributions of specific mechanoreceptors, proprioception as a whole is an essential component to controlling activation of the dynamic restraints and motor control.
