Purpose: This study aimed to investigate whether the return to level I sports, concomitant injuries, foot-related problems, and other factors would increase the risk of knee reinjury after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Methods: This study used a prospective cohort study design. Online enrolment from August 2018 to January 2019 in ACL Community Indonesia recruited 148 patients who had undergone ACLR less than one month prior to injury. Knee injury occurrence after ACLR was diagnosed through a physical examination and positive MRI or arthroscopic findings. Results: During the study, 55 knee reinjuries occurred. The proportional hazards model analysis revealed that the risk of knee reinjury at 12 and 24 months for patients who returned to level I sports (hazards ratio (HR)=3.17 and HR=3.90, respectively) was significantly higher than that of the patients who did not return to sports and that the risk for those who returned to level II/III sports did not significantly increase at 12 or 24 months. Patients with concomitant meniscus injury had a significantly higher risk of knee reinjury at 12 and 24 months (HR=3.33 and HR=2.25, respectively) than those without, and the risk of knee reinjury for patients with concomitant posterior cruciate ligament injury was significantly higher at 12 months (HR=3.05) but not at 24 months. Fewer knee symptoms after ACLR were significantly associated with a lower risk of knee reinjury (HR=0.98) at 12 and 24 months. Conclusions: The return to level I sports, concomitant meniscus and posterior cruciate ligament injury, and knee symptoms after ACLR may increase the risk of knee reinjury for post-ACLR patients.

Social commerce has been seeing exponential growth due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which brought a wave of cross-border commerce as consumers purchase more items online. Business uses social media to reach new markets by accessing potential global buyers, expanding their target markets, and increasing brand popularity. Cross-border ecommerce studies showed that perceived risk is a critical factor that reduces individuals' willingness to purchase unfamiliar foreign products. We introduced an emerging business model, cross-border social commerce (CBSC) and examined the mitigation of perceived risk through trust transfer in a CBSC context. To capture consumers' purchase intention of cross-border commerce, we conducted an online scenario-based survey. Survey respondents comprising a total of 321 social media users in Indonesia were observed. The results demonstrate that consumers' trust can be transferred from friends and platforms to brands, and the transfer effect is contingent on the popularity of the brand. Our findings have crucial implications for trust transfer and cross-border social commerce. This study contributes to academia by introducing a new business model and advancing our understanding of how to enhance trust and mitigate risk. Practitioners can gain insight into trust building in CBSC context. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: This study aimed to examine the psychometric performance of the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) used in Indonesian patients with chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI). Methods: The FAOS was translated into Indonesian through standardized procedures. Among 224 patients with unilateral CLAI recruited from 14 physical therapy clinics during a 1-year period, reliabilities, construct validities, and responsiveness levels of the FAOS were examined. Active and passive range of motion of ankle dorsiflexion or plantiflexion, figure-of-eight, numeric pain rating scale (NPRS), and Short Form (SF)-36 were used to test the construct validities. Results: The five subscales indicated adequate internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha, 0.74 ~ 0.96) and interrater test-retest reliabilities (interclass correlation coefficients, 0.80 ~ 0.94). Subscales of the FAOS moderately converged with those selected measures with similar constructs (r values, 0.32 ~ 0.53), with the exception of the correlation of pain with the NPRS (r , -0.06). Results of the principal component analysis showed that the five-factor structure of the FAOS was appropriate for the Indonesian data, although six items (four in the pain and two in the other symptoms (OSs) subscales) did not perfectly fit their original subscales. Guyatt's responsiveness index for the FAOS's subscales changed in the SF-36's physical function over a 1-month period and ranged 0.37 to 1.27. Conclusions: The Indonesian version of the FAOS demonstrated acceptable reliabilities and responsiveness, and fair construct validities among CLAI patients, although certain items in the pain and OSs subscales may need to be further explored and improved.
