UNASSIGNED: A search was performed on PubMed, Embase, and Epistemonikos on December 18, 2023. This study conforms to the principles of the Cochrane Collaboration and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis guidelines. Clinical studies or case reports on shoulder ROM including external rotation (ER; shoulder at 90° of abduction) and internal rotation (IR) in competitive, elite, or professional tennis players.
UNASSIGNED: We found 25 eligible studies that reported on a total of 18,534 tennis players, of which 20 studies reported the ROM for the dominant and nondominant side. Comparing dominant vs. nondominant shoulders revealed that dominant shoulders had significantly smaller IR (53.0° vs. 62.6°; P < .001). Comparing adults vs. children revealed that adults have significantly smaller IR (44.5° vs. 57.1°; P < .001) and ER (95.3° vs. 110.3°; P < .001). Comparing females vs. males revealed no significant differences in ER (113.4° vs. 104.9°; P = .360) or IR (54.3° vs. 56.4°; P = .710).
UNASSIGNED: IR in shoulders of tennis players is significantly smaller in dominant vs. nondominant sides (53.0° vs. 62.6°, P < .001), and significantly smaller in adults vs. children (44.5° vs. 57.1°, P < .001). These findings could be relevant in the context of physical preparation and training of tennis players, to monitor evolution of IR as a result of their sport and/or as they transition from childhood to adulthood.
■在PubMed上进行了搜索,Embase,和Epistemonikos在2023年12月18日。本研究符合Cochrane合作的原则以及系统评价和荟萃分析指南的首选报告项目。关于肩部ROM的临床研究或病例报告,包括外旋转(ER;外展90°的肩部)和内旋转(IR)精英,或职业网球运动员。
■我们发现了25项符合条件的研究,共报告了18,534名网球运动员,其中20项研究报告了显性和非显性侧的ROM。比较显性与非显性肩膀显示显性肩膀的IR明显较小(53.0°与62.6°;P<.001)。比较成年人与儿童发现成年人的IR明显较小(44.5°vs.57.1°;P<.001)和ER(95.3°vs.110.3°;P<.001)。比较女性与男性的ER没有显着差异(113.4°vs.104.9°;P=.360)或IR(54.3°vs.56.4°;P=.710)。
■网球运动员肩膀的IR在占主导地位的vs.非显性侧(53.0°vs.62.6°,P<.001),和显著较小的成年人与儿童(44.5°vs.57.1°,P<.001)。这些发现可能与网球运动员的身体准备和训练有关,监测由于他们的运动和/或从童年过渡到成年而导致的IR的演变。
