Biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of the ankle muscles in men with previous history of ankle sprain

Pilar Serra-Ano et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of prior lateral ankle sprains on the mechanical properties of certain leg muscles in asymptomatic men. The results showed that a history of ankle sprains led to increased muscle tone and stiffness, along with a shorter stress relaxation time.

The Measurement of Stiffness for Major Muscles with Shear Wave Elastography and Myoton: A Quantitative Analysis Study

Youngjin Lee et al.

Summary: The study found moderate to strong correlations between MyotonPRO and SWE measurements of lower limb muscle stiffness during resting and active voluntary contraction. Muscle stiffness was generally higher in men compared to women at rest and during contraction, except for the TA muscle. The instruments showed good intra-rater reliability and moderate to good correlations between measurements at rest and during active voluntary contraction.
