Knee angle does not affect ankle eversion to inversion peak torque ratios derived from an isokinetic dynamometer

摘要: The purpose of this study was to examine varying degrees knee flexion on isokinetic eversion (E) inversion (I) strength ratios. Twenty healthy subjects volunteered for study. Concentric (CON) peak torque (PT) both ankles (dominant, non-dominant) at three different angles (15°, 30°, 45°) and two velocities (30°/s, 120°/s) assessed with ankle plantar maintained 10°. E CON :I ratios 30°/s ranged from 0.87 1.04 across all angles, while those 120°/s 0.86 1.00 indicating no differences in between knee-flexion or ankles. However, there a trend lower evident the dominant compared non-dominant These results suggest that may be positioned ranging 15° 45° without influencing outcome measurements.
