RESUMO

Peak oxygen uptake (VO2), evaluated as exercise tolerance, is a strong predictor of life prognosis regardless of health condition. Several previous studies have reported that peak VO2 is higher in those with a greater decrease in muscle oxygen saturation (SmO2) in the active muscles during incremental exercise. However, the skeletal muscle characteristics of individuals exhibiting a greater decrease in SmO2 during active muscle engagement in incremental exercise remain unclear. This study aimed to clarify the relationship among muscle strength, muscle endurance, and skeletal muscle oxygenation dynamics in active leg muscles during incremental exercise. Twenty-four healthy young men were included and categorized into the non-moderate-to-high muscular strength and endurance group (those with low leg muscle strength, endurance, or both; n = 11) and the moderate-to-high muscular strength and endurance group (those with both moderate-to-high leg muscle strength and endurance; n = 13). All participants underwent cardiopulmonary exercise testing combined with near-infrared spectroscopy to assess whole-body peak VO2 and the change in SmO2 at the lateral vastus lateralis from rest to each exercise stage as skeletal muscle oxygenation dynamics. A linear mixed-effects model, with the change in SmO2 from rest to each stage as the dependent variable, individual participants as random effects, and group and exercise load as fixed effects, revealed significant main effects for both group (P = 0.001) and exercise load (P < 0.001) as well as a significant interaction between the two factors (P < 0.001). Furthermore, multiple-comparison test results showed that the change in SmO2 from rest to 40%-100% peak VO2 was significantly higher in the moderate-to-high muscular strength and endurance group than in the non-moderate-to-high muscular strength and endurance group. Maintaining both muscle strength and endurance at moderate or higher levels contributes to high skeletal muscle oxygenation dynamics (i.e., greater decrease in SmO2) during moderate- or high-intensity exercise.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Pitching mechanics are believed to be risk factors for throwing elbow injury. Thus, a prospective study of abnormal mechanics in youth baseball players is needed. This study aimed to analyze the ulnar collateral ligament during normal pitching using SIMM (Software for Interactive Musculoskeletal Modeling) for analysis and investigate the risk parameters of throwing elbow injuries in youth baseball players. We hypothesized that excessive ulnar collateral ligament force during pitching would be a risk factor for throwing elbow injuries in this population. METHODS: In this cohort study, youth baseball pitchers (aged 9-11 years) were instructed to throw a ball into a netted target. Using a SIMM musculoskeletal model, we analyzed the force of the anterior band of the anterior oblique ligament, posterior band of the anterior oblique ligament (AOL_PB), and elbow varus moment during pitching (foot contact to ball release). We calculated the integral of each force of the anterior band of the anterior oblique ligament and AOL_PB during pitching and summarized these data to establish an impulse at the medial epicondyle. Each participant was followed up for 12 months to assess the occurrence of throwing elbow injury. RESULTS: During the 12-month follow-up period, 18 pitchers (28.1%) reported throwing elbow injuries in the throwing arm. The results of this study showed that the maximum AOL_PB force and the impulse at the medial epicondyle were risk factors for throwing elbow injuries. The maximum AOL_PB force was significantly higher in the throwing elbow injury group than in the uninjured group (59.4 ± 17.8 N vs. 47.1 ± 17.5 N, P = .014). The impulse at the medial epicondyle was also significantly different (11.1 ± 4.0 N ï½¥ s in the throwing elbow injury group vs. 8.3 ± 4.4 N ï½¥ s in the uninjured group, P = .025). CONCLUSIONS: Increasing the AOL_PB force or the impulse at the medial epicondyle may increase the risk of throwing elbow injuries in youth baseball pitchers. It may be possible to reduce injury risk by focusing on ways to decrease AOL_PB load and cumulative stress on the medial epicondyle throughout the throwing motion while still maintaining high levels of ball velocity.
