Aerobic fitness thresholds to define poor cardiometabolic health in children and youth
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Aerobic fitness is an apparent candidate for screening children and youth for poor cardiometabolic health and future risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Yet, age‐ and sex‐specific cut points for children and youth ... -
Altered hip control during a standing knee‐lift test is associated with increased risk of knee injuries
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)A few prospective studies have investigated hip and pelvic control as a risk factor for lower extremity (LE) injuries. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether deficits in hip and lumbopelvic control during ... -
Association between Lower Extremity Muscle Strength and Noncontact ACL Injuries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Purpose: This study aimed to prospectively investigate the association between isolated and functional lower extremity muscle strength and the risk for noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in Norwegian female ... -
Athletes with high knee abduction moments show increased vertical center of mass excursions and knee valgus angles across sport-specific fake-and-cut tasks of different complexities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Young female handball players represent a high-risk population for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. While the external knee abduction moment (KAM) is known to be a risk factor, it is unclear how cutting technique ... -
Change of direction biomechanics in a 180-degree pivot turn and the risk for noncontact knee injuries in youth basketball and floorball players
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Studies investigating biomechanical risk factors for knee injuries in sport-specific tasks are needed.Purpose:To investigate the association between change of direction (COD) biomechanics in a 180-degree pivot ... -
Health conditions detected in a comprehensive periodic health evaluation of 558
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-03-24)Background: Despite widespread use of periodic health evaluation (PHE) to detect and prevent injury and illness in athletes, its effectiveness in detecting health conditions and relevant risk factors is still debated. ... -
Interseason variability in isokinetic strength and poor correlation with Nordic hamstring eccentric strength in football players
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)In elite sport, the use of strength testing to establish muscle function and performance is common. Traditionally, isokinetic strength tests have been used, measuring torque during concentric and eccentric muscle action. ... -
Interseason variability of a functional movement test, the 9+ screening battery, in professional male football players
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-09-06)Background: The Nine Plus screening battery test (9+) is a functional movement test intended to identify limitations in fundamental movement patterns predisposing athletes to injury. However, the interseason variability ... -
Risk factors for lower extremity injuries in elite female soccer players
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-02-05)Background: The incidence of lower extremity injuries in female soccer players is high, but the risk factors for injuries are unknown. Purpose: To investigate risk factors for lower extremity injuries in elite female ... -
Single-leg squat as a tool to evaluate young athletes' frontal plane knee control
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Objective: To determine the agreement between 2D video analysis and subjective visual assessment by a physiotherapist in evaluating young athletes’ knee control, and to determine the intra- and inter-rater reliability of ... -
Stiff landings are associated with increased ACL injury risk in young female basketball and floorball players
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Background: Few prospective studies have investigated the biomechanical risk factors of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Purpose: To investigate the relationship between biomechanical characteristics of vertical ... -
The vertical drop jump Is a poor screening test for ACL injuries in female elite soccer and handball players: a prospective cohort study of 710 athletes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-04)Background: The evidence linking knee kinematics and kinetics during a vertical drop jump (VDJ) to anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury risk is restricted to a single small sample. Still, the VDJ test continues to be ...
