Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Abstract Background/aim: Little is known about the relationship between hallux valgus and the alignment of proximal joints. Dynamic knee valgus is a movement pattern characterized by excessive knee abduction along with femoral adduction, internal rotation, and relative external tibial rotation. It is more prevalent in females and exacerbates during landing in jumping, predisposing athletes to injuries. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of hallux valgus deformity on dynamic knee movement pattern and lower extremity injuries in athletes.

Materials and methods: This is a cross-sectional observational study. The study included 92 athletes with at least 3 years of experience in their respective sports.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Athletes without acute injuries that could affect performance tests were included. Demographic data were collected, and the hallux valgus angle was measured using a goniometer. A standard warm-up protocol was then administered. A drop jump test from a 30cm platform was conducted, and images captured during the test were analyzed in 2D using Kistler+Noraxon Measurement Device cameras.
