“…However, only recently it has been demonstrated that in healthy athletes different cleat models aren't related to differences in ankle sprain risk factors (Silva et al, 2017a). Moreover, according to our knowledge, and despite deserving the attention of all sports and health professionals (Boer et al, 2014;Kemler et al, 2016), no study has evaluated the influence of different cleat models in ankle sprain risk factors in athletes with postural control deregulation such as CAI.…”

A B S T R A C TBackground: The cleats-surface interaction has been described as a possible risk factor for lateral ankle sprain. However, their interaction is still unknown in individuals with chronic ankle instability. The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of different soccer cleats on kinematic, kinetic and neuromuscular ankle variables on artificial grass in soccer players with and without chronic ankle instability. Methods: Eighty-two amateur athletes divided in two groups: 40 with chronic ankle instability and 42 without chronic ankle instability. All subjects performed 2 series of 6 consecutive crossover jumps with dominant foot, each one with one of the four models of cleats (Turf, Artificial grass, Hard and Firm ground). Cleat and group main effect and interactions of kinematic, kinetic and neuromuscular variables were analyzed according to factorial repeated measures ANOVA. Findings: No statistically significant cleat and group main effect and interactions were identified in kinematic, kinetic and electromyographic magnitude of the peroneal muscles. A main effect of the group was observed for peroneus longus activation time for TF model (p = 0.010). Interpretation: In soccer players, the contributor variables for ankle sprain were not influenced by the kind of soccer cleat used in a functional jump test on artificial grass. However, players with chronic ankle instability present delayed postural adjustments in peroneus longus with the TF model compared to players without chronic ankle instability.

“…Additionally, acute ankle sprains have a high recurrence rate, which is associated with the development of chronic ankle instability (CAI) (2). The mean total costs of an ankle sprain were estimated at €360.60, resulting from medical consumption, rehabilitation, persistent residual symptoms, and high recurrence rates (4). This relatively high cost of treatment means that cost-effective methods for treatment are required for ensuring healthcare sustainability.…”

Background. Treatment options for lateral ankle sprains continue to evolve as advances are made in terms of techniques and materials. Objectives. This study was performed to evaluate clinical outcomes and satisfaction between two immobilization materials, semi-rigid cast, and elastic bandages. Methods. This study was a non-randomized controlled study. Fifty-four patients have undergone immobilization for their sprained ankle and divided into two groups according to the material selection. There were 27 patients in each group. VAS score, Karlsson score, satisfaction scale, and presence of later ankle instability was obtained. Standard descriptive measurement, independent samples t-test, and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results. The mean age was 25.29 ± 6.04 years old. Sports injury was accounted for 27 patients (50%), followed by internal damage (24 patients; 44.4%). VAS and Karlsson's scores were taken and validated by authors and significantly better in semi-rigid cast groups compared with the elastic bandage group in the first week and second-week follow-up. No significant differences in overall satisfaction and ankle stability after one year. Conclusion. This study showed that the application of semi-rigid cast yielded quicker recovery in patients with ankle sprain without any decline in satisfaction scale. Therefore, a semi-rigid cast could be preferred over elastic bandage for acute ankle sprains.
