The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation between passive ankle movement range and knee joint kinetic variables during squat movement. In this study, a total of 27 subjects participated in this study, 19 men and 8 women, who had no history of the musculoskeletal system of the lower extremity. To verify the correlation between the ankle joint flexibility and the knee joint kinetic variables during deep squat, it was performed pearson's correlation coefficient and variables showing statistically significant correlation were performed by simple regression analysis at a significant level of α .05. Through this study, the relationship between the peak joint moment and joint reaction force factors that determine ankle joint flexibility and knee joint pressure was confirmed. Therefore, when applying an exercise that can generate a lot of load on the knee joint such as deep squats during strength training, checking the degree of flexibility of the ankle joint among physical characteristics to the individual may reduce the stability of the body and the risk of injury to the knee joint. It is expected to be helpful in setting the intensity of exercise that can be done.

A seven-year-old Yorkshire terrier 2.1 kg was admitted with a 2 months history of sever bilateral forelimb lameness and joint instability. Examination and radiographs revealed caudal luxation of bilateral antebrachiocarpal joint. Luxation of bilateral antebrachiocarpal (ABC) joint in a toy breed dog was treated with pancarpal arthrodesis. Modified external skeletal fixator (ESF) (type IIb) with polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) was utilized in this case. Porcine cancellous bone graft (PCBG) was inserted to fill the joint space in carpus. The clinical and radiographic assessments of joint after the surgical procedure proved that PCBG can be used a promising alternative to Autogenous cancellous bone graft (ACBG).

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of training using unstable plate on displacement and dynamic balance ability of ankle joints in women college students wearing high heel shoes. Subjects were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. 3D motion analysis was performed while walking 9cm high-heeled shoes and walking 5m. Dynamic balanced ability evaluation was performed. The intervention program was administered to experimental subjects three times a week for four weeks. They performed balance training using unstable plates. There was no intervention in the control group. The results showed that the displacement of the ankle joints in the experimental group after the intervention was decreased overall and the dynamic balance ability was significantly increased. The control group showed little change. As a result, the training using unstable plate stabilizes the ankle joints and improves the dynamic balance ability of the subjects wearing high-heeled shoes.

K. H. KIM, J. H. CHO, and S. C. LEE, The Effect of Taping on Lower Extremity during Jump Landing in Subjects with Functional Ankle Instability. Korean Journal of Sport Biomechanics, Vol. 19, No. 2, pp. 265-272, 2009. Ankle taping is thought that it can be very useful in clinical setting for reducing injury. However, the studies of ankle taping is focused only ankle joint. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of taping on lower extremity during jump landing in subjects with functional ankle instability. we collected the data from VICON. Joint range of motion for sagittal plane, frontal plane and transverse plane were measured during a jump-landing task. Taping used in this study appeared to restrict ankle motion with altering the knee and hip joint ROM. We found ankle taping had effects of reducing PF, initial contact PF in sagittal plane, while increasing knee flexion, hip flexion, intial contact hip flexion statistically. It decreased ankle inversion, knee valgus, initial contact knee valgus, hip abduction in frontal plane and ankle abduction, hip internal rotation in transverse plane statistically. Ankle taping showed significant change Knee and hip joint ROM with ankle joint ROM.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of flossing band exercise on the range of motion and vertical jump for taekwondo demonstration athletes with ankle functional instability. The subjects of this study were 21 male Taekwondo Demonstration Team athletes enrolled at D University. They were divided into functional ankle instability group(FAIG, n=7), mild ankle instability group(MAIG, n=7), and ankle stability group(ASG, n=7). All groups performed a acute flossing band exercise program. The results of this study are as follows; dorsi flexion(p<.01), inversion(p<.01), eversion(p<.05) and vertical jump(p<.01) were significantly increased in the FAIG. Flossing band exercise of Taekwondo demonstration team with FAI increased joint range of motion and vertical jump. Therefore, it was confirmed that it could be an intervention that can improve performance and reduce the risk of ankle injury.

The purpose of this study to compare the effect of physical therapy interventions on the improvement of ankle joint range of motion with stroke patients. Total subjects were 45 stroke patients, who were divided into a group using inclined boards(n=15), a group of receiving stretching(n=15), and a group of receiving joint mobilization(n=15). The experiment was performed for 8 weeks. The plantar flexion showed significant differences both groups and by periods. The dorsiflexion showed significant differences between groups and by periods, and the group in changes within groups by periods. This study found that stretching and joint mobilization are effective as an intervention method to increase the range of motion on ankle joint. Future study is expected to investigate other effects of increased ankle range of motion in stroke patients.

The proportion of patients with end-stage ankle arthritis is increasing. The leading surgical methods for treating patients with end-stage ankle arthritis are ankle arthrodesis and total ankle arthroplasty. Ankle arthrodesis is considered the standard treatment for end-stage ankle arthritis. Many studies have been conducted on the two procedures, but it is unclear which is superior, and total ankle arthroplasty cannot be said to be a clear indication. Therefore, this review compares the advantages and disadvantages of two representative surgical methods for treating end-stage ankle arthritis.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of the intensive ankle joint strategy training on the muscular strength and balancing ability in the elderly women. The subject of this study were 30 elderly women aged from 65 to 80 and randomly assigned to three groups. For 6 weeks, two experimental groups took the training an hour every 3 days of a week. The results that measured the dynamometer, FRT, and SEBT after implementing general lower limbs exercise and the intensive ankle joint strategy training for 6 weeks showed that the changes in the control and experimental group I were not statistically significant while the changes in the experimental group II were statistically significant (p<.05). For the prevention of the elderlies from fall and the treatment approaches, it is deemed to be necessary additional studies on the diverse variables through the intensive training of the ankle strategy.

발목에 대한 유착성 테이핑의 적용은 물리치료 분야와 운동 트레이닝 분야에서의 일반적인 치료 접근 방법이라 할 수 있다. 즉 발목 염좌 같은 손상을 예방하기 위한 방법과 재활의 부가적인 치료 형태로 이용될 수 있는 것이다. 본 연구는 발목의 테이핑과 트레드밀에서의 30분간 보행이 수직 착지 동작 동안 하지의 운동 역학적 요소들에 어떠한 영향을 주는지 알아보기 위해 시행되었다. 14명의 신체 건강한 대상자들 (남:10, 여:4)이 본 연구에 참여하였다. 한발로 서있는 동안 40 cm의 높이로 뛰게 하였다. 가자미근, 전경골근, 안쪽넓은근, 넙다리 두갈래근에 근전도 전극이 부착되었다. 테이핑된 신체 부위로 착지하는 동안 근전도와 힘판(force plate) 자료가 500 Hz의 주파수로 수집되었다. 대상자들의 우세쪽 하지 발목에 테이핑을 하였고, 대상자는 한발로 뛰어 내리는 동작을 반복하였다. 트레드밀에서 30분 동안 발목에 테이핑을 한 채로 보행하였고 이후 한발로 뛰어 내리는 동작을 반복하여 수행하였다. 테이핑을 적용한 상태와 테이핑한 채로 30분 동안 트레드밀에서 걷기 운동을 한 조건에서 수직 지면 반발력의 통계학적으로 유의미한 증가가 있었다. 착지 동안에 네 가지 상황에서의 최대 내측 가속도의 유의한 차이가 있었고, 그 차이는 테이핑 전과 테이핑을 한 채로의 운동 조건에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 테이핑한 상태에서 가자미근은 접촉되는 착지 순간부터 최대 수직 지면 반발력이 나타나는 동안의 평균 근전도의 수치에 있어서 유의한 감소가 있었다. 반면에 다른 근육들에서는 아무런 변화를 보이지 않았다. 비록 발목 테이핑이 발목 손상의 위험을 줄이는데 효과적이라고 일반적으로 인식되고 있으나 이번 실험의 결과는 30분 동안의 트레드밀에서의 보행 후 테이핑은 발목의 움직임을 제한하는 효과는 있지만 한편으로는 가자미근의 활동을 감소시키는 것을 보여주었다. 따라서 이 연구의 결과는 테이핑을 하면 점프와 착지로 이어지는 동작 중에 발목관절 손상 위험을 증가시킬 가능성이 있음을 보여주었다.
