Observational Study

Study Snapshot

Cricketers' shoulders differ from baseball's, with a thickened dominant supraspinatus tendon and a shortened non-dominant pectoralis minor muscle being risk factors for shoulder injury.

PopulationOlder adults (50-71 years)

Sample size24

MethodsObservational

OutcomesBody Mass Index projections

ResultsSocial networks mitigate obesity in older groups.

A few musculoskeletal screening tests showed predictive validity, but the overall value of screening procedures in identifying pre-existing injuries and establishing baselines for individualized management programs remains significant.

Adolescent volleyball attackers show decreased internal-rotation range of motion, total range of motion, and acromiohumeral distance in their dominant shoulder, suggesting potential risk factors for shoulder injuries.
