  • Risk Factor for Elbow Symptom Manifestation in Young
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Risk factor for elbow symptom manifestation in young baseball players with asymptomatic medial elbow abnormalities: a prospective cohort study Hitoshi Shitara*, Tsuyoshi Tajika, Takuro Kuboi, Tsuyoshi Ichinose, Tsuyoshi Sasaki, Noritaka Hamano, Fumitaka Endo, Masataka Kamiyama, Ryosuke Miyamoto, Kurumi Nakase, Atsushi Yamamoto, Tsutomu Kobayashi, Kenji Takagishi & Hirotaka Chikuda Asymptomatic elbow abnormalities are relatively common in young baseball players, but the factors responsible are unclear. To prospectively identify risk factors related to symptom manifestation in asymptomatic elbow abnormalities, we recruited 573 baseball players (age: 7–14 years) at a pre-participation medical/physical examination in the preseason who were right-handed and had asymptomatic medial elbow abnormalities on ultrasound (US). Baseline preseason and postseason participant characteristics were assessed. A “symptomatic” elbow was defned as an elbow with medial elbow joint problems that prevented ball throwing for ≥ 8 days. After exclusions, 82 players were enrolled, of whom 22 (26.8%) developed a symptomatic elbow. In univariate analyses, the external and internal rotation strengths of the dominant shoulder were signifcantly greater in the symptomatic group than in the asymptomatic group (P = 0.021). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the internal rotation strength of the dominant shoulder was a signifcant independent risk factor (odds ratio = 1.091, P = 0.027) for developing a symptomatic elbow. In young asymptomatic baseball players with abnormalities in the medial elbow region of the dominant arm on US, stronger preseason internal rotation strength of the dominant shoulder was a signifcant independent risk factor for the development of a “symptomatic” elbow. Young baseball players are at high risk for elbow injuries1–5.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIAL AND MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING PREDICTIVE MODELING AND ANALYTICS FOR PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL: AN ANALYSIS OF INJURIES, PLAYER PERFORMANCE, AND MEDICAL STAFF OPTIMIZATION PATRICK SCHERI SPRING 2020 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Industrial Engineering with honors in Industrial Engineering Reviewed and approved* by the following: Guodong (Gordon) Pang Associate Professor Harold and Inge Marcus Department of Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering Thesis Supervisor Catherine Harmonosky Associate Professor and Associate Department Head of Harold and Inge Marcus Department of Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT The research in this paper aims to help Major League Baseball (MLB) teams find the next big competitive advantages within baseball – injury modeling and medical staff optimization. The objective of this research is to create models to predict future injury, and evaluate medical staffing so that teams and players can increase their future performance. The game of baseball is quickly shifting towards analytics and as teams strive to find every advantage possible, they must consider evaluating their medical departments. The research in this paper utilizes a predictive model to indicate the odds of a pitcher requiring Tommy John surgery (a common baseball injury). The model used a variety of variables ranging from basic statistics, pitch selections and velocities, and pitching mechanics to generate an equation for the likelihood a player will require surgery. The model showed that a pitcher’s pitch selection is one of the largest indicators of surgery.
