ACL tear study: muscle weakness and knee function
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how a specific type of muscle weakness (called arthrogenic motor inhibition) relates to your knee function after an ACL tear. If you have a recent ACL rupture and want to help doctors better understand recovery, you may be eligible.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 44 years old
- Your ACL tear is confirmed by an MRI
- Your injury happened within the last 30 days
- You speak French and agree to let the study use your medical data
- You have not had a previous knee injury or surgery on either knee
- You only have an ACL tear (no other torn ligaments in the same knee)

This study looks at how the thigh muscles work in people recovering from ACL surgery. It compares the muscle signals in your operated leg to your healthy leg. The goal is to learn more about muscle control after surgery.
This study looks at how the knee moves during surgery to fix a torn ACL. It may help doctors understand how to improve recovery after ACL and LAL reconstruction.
This study looks at how well the knee muscles activate after an ACL tear, comparing different types of muscle contractions. It aims to understand recovery patterns to help improve treatment.
This study looks at whether people with ACL tears have weakness in a specific calf muscle called the soleus. If you have an ACL tear, you will do strength tests to compare with healthy individuals.
This study looks at how well amateur athletes recover and return to sport after ACL reconstruction. If you had ACL surgery on one knee at least 6 months ago, you may be able to participate in simple functional tests to track your progress.
This trial uses a special light-based device (NIRS) to check muscle health in athletes who had ACL surgery. It aims to improve rehabilitation for cycling or running sports.
