Following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), neuromuscular control alterations may persist, increasing the risk of reinjury. This study aimed to investigate electromyographic (EMG) muscle activation and the co-contraction index (CCI) of ACL-related agonist and antagonist muscles during side- hop tasks in ACLR individuals, offering novel insights into neuromuscular strategies during dynamic tasks....
Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is a common orthopedic surgery procedure whose incidence has increased over the past few decades. Nevertheless, it is believed that neuromuscular control remains altered from the early stages after ACLR to later years. Therefore, the aim of this study was to systematically evaluate the magnitude of co-contraction during functional tasks in subjects with unilatera...
The Cabeço da Ladeira paleontological site in central Portugal became known as the “Jurassic Beach”. Formerly an active quarry, the site was protected in order to preserve the large exposures of a Middle Jurassic (early? Bajocian) carbonate tidal flat with an outstanding fossil record. This multidisciplinary paleontological work involving experts from several national and international research and geoconservat...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate short-term effects of the global pelvic manipulation (GPM) on knee joint position sense (JPS). This randomized, controlled double-blind trial included 26 asymptomatic participants (X § 25.3; standard deviation § 4.4 years) who were randomly allocated into 2 groups. Sixteen participants were allocated into the experi- mental group, in which GPM was performed, and the res...
