ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To identify subgroups of runners' profiles who had or did not have a History of Running-Related Injury in the Shank and Foot (HRRI-SF).DESIGN:
Cross-sectional.METHODS:
Clinical measures of passive ankle stiffness (measured as ankle position (compliance) to index passive joint stiffness), forefoot-shank alignment, peak torque of ankle plantar flexors, years of running experience, and age were analyzed through Classification and Regression Tree (CART).RESULTS:
The CART identified four subgroups of runners with a greater prevalence of HRRI-SF (1) ankle stiffness ≤0.42°; (2) ankle stiffness >0.42°, age ≤23.5 years, and forefoot varus >19,64°; (3) ankle stiffness >0.42°, age >62.5 years, and forefoot varus ≤19.70°; (4) ankle stiffness >42°, age >62.5 years, forefoot varus >19.70°, and running experience ≤7 years. Three subgroups had a lower prevalence of HRRI-SF (1) ankle stiffness >0.42° and age between 23.5 and 62.5 years; (2) ankle stiffness >0.42°, age ≤23.5 years, and forefoot varus ≤14.64°; (3) ankle stiffness >0.42°, age >62.5 years, forefoot varus >19.7°, and running experience >7 years.CONCLUSION:
One runner profile subgroup showed that higher ankle stiffness could predict HRRI-SF without association with other variables. Distinct interactions among variables characterized the other subgroups' profiles. The identified interactions among the predictors used to characterize the runners' profiles could be used in clinical decision-making.Palavras-chave
