The intricate link between anterior cruciate ligament rupture and lower limb muscle fatigue: a case study.
Article in European journal of orthopaedic surgery & traumatology : orthopedie traumatologie, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeThis study aims to explore the impact of Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries on the fatigue behavior of selected lower limb muscles during high-intensity physical activity.
methodsThe study involves assessing the surface electromyographic activity of key muscle groups, including the hamstrings, quadriceps, and triceps surae (Biceps Femoris (BF), Semitendinosus (ST), Rectus Femoris (RF), Vastus Lateralis (VL), Vastus Medialis (VM), GastroCnemius Lateralis (GCL), GastroCnemius Medialis (GCM), and Soleus (S)), in an individual with a left leg ACL rupture. Muscle activity has been monitored during a fatigue protocol, and metrics such as Root Mean Square (RMS), Median Frequency (MDF), and Integrated Electromyography (IEMG) have been calculated to evaluate muscle function.
resultsSignificant reductions in electromyographic parameters are observed in the BF, ST, VM, and VL of the injured leg and in the GCL of the contralateral leg during the fatigue protocol.
conclusionsThese findings enhance the understanding of how ACL injuries influence the neuromuscular function of both the affected and unaffected legs during prolonged activity. This knowledge provides valuable insights into knee joint loading mechanics and may inform strategies for addressing muscle fatigue and optimizing rehabilitation protocols.
