peer agreement (net): +1| sports en pivot active sports including tennis, volleyball, ski, danse, badminton and gymnastics Explanation: In France there's a sports category called sports de pivot which includes tennis, volleyball, ski, danse, badminton and gymnastics; and another category called sports de pivot-contact which includes rugby, soccer, basketball, handball and martial arts. In the English-speaking world, sports are categorized differently according to different institutions, such as the Global Association of International Sports Federations or the World Sports Encyclopedia and can include many categories. As far as I know, I haven't encountered any similar categories in English as the sports de pivot category in French. As far as physical therapy in the English language is concerned, as far as I know, types of injuries are categorized, rather than types of sport. So, it seems to me that this term is a classic case of French-English category mismatch, where there's a category that exists in France that simply doesn't exist in the English language. Eagles are a great example of this problem because the Bald Eagle of American fame isn't even an eagle at all in French, but a Pygargue and is part of a category which includes piscivorous birds of prey. Whenever I encounter a problem like this, I go to the root of the matter and list at least some of the items included in the French category, rather than invent an English category that doesn't, in fact, exist. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2023-11-29 14:41:36 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- *dance* https://www.fhl.science/fhl/index.php/implications-et-cons%C3%A9quences/sport#:~:text=On%20entend%20par%20sports%20de,d'entorse%20grave%20du https://www.physio-pedia.com/Sport_Injury_Classification |

pivot sports Explanation: There's definitely a case to be had for 'pivot sports', which can be found in 'genuine English' as well as French-related texts. First, some background: "addition of LET enabled a larger subset of patients to return to strenuous, high pivot-shift sports such as skiing, soccer, and football" By Yunhe Mao, MD,* Kaibo Zhang, MD,* Jian Li, MD,* and Weili Fu, MD*†, in the Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine "that’s the reason because is very difficult come back to competition before than four months, especially in the pivot-shift sports." BY Fulvio Stradijot, in the British Journal of Sports Medicine "The pivot shift is a symptom and sign of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and lateral and posterolateral capsular deficiency of the knee. Either a subluxation or reduction, or both in rapid succession, plus a simultaneous impingement of the lateral compartment of the knee causes a pivot shift." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/6822004/#:~:text=The pivot s... 'Pivot shift' therefore relates specifically to the knee, but questions have been raised about its relationship with the ankle (your case) too: "The ankle syndesmosis pivot shift “Are we reviving the ACL story?” […] there is a growing interest for the high ankle sprain with emerging evidence on biomechanical behavior, function, injury, and treatment. Interpretation of emerging publications on the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis may raise questions about striking similarities with the anterior cruciate ligament function and pivot-shift mechanism of injury in the knee. Examples of 'pivot sports': "Acute tears result from any activity that forcefully twists or rotates the knee. Athletes who play high-demand, stop-and-go pivot sports are most vulnerable." https://www.orthovirginia.com/meniscal-tear-of-the-knee/ "Acute knee injuries are more common due to trauma to the knee, and in particular in our sporting twisting pivot sports with suspected ACL tears." https://www.physiowaterford.ie/index.php/conditions-treated/... "Athletes who participate in low-impact, non-pivot sports—like bicycling or swimming—may be able to continue their sport without having their ACL tear surgically reconstructed" https://www.healthychildren.org/English/health-issues/injuri... "they also found that women who play so-called pivot sports - like basketball, netball, volleyball and soccer - are more likely to hurt their knees than either male athletes or other women whose sports don't involve pivoting." https://www.news24.com/life/wellness/body/condition-centres/...
