Between-group differences for temporal variables between the bilateral average of the control group (CG) and the injured and uninjured limbs of the hamstring-injured group (HG)

Dependent variable/muscle group	HG injured side versus CG bilateral average	p Value	HG uninjured side vs CG bilateral average^*	p Value
Time (ms)^*
Reaction time	−17 (−41 to 7)	0.154	−15 (−39 to 9)	0.217
Movement time	−39 (−90 to 12)	0.130	−54 (−108 to 0)	0.049

Gluteus medius	12 (−70 to 45)	0.663	−1 (−63 to 62)	0.982
Gluteus maximus	−4 (−65 to 57)	0.888	59 (−126 to 9)	0.088
Biceps femoris	−197 (−299 to −94)	<0.001	−155 (−287 to −23)	0.023
Medial hamstrings	−123 (−188 to −57)	0.001	−103 (−181 to −25)	0.011
Vastus lateralis	21 (−48 to 91)	0.529	−25 (−99 to 48)	0.477
Rectus femoris	3 (−59 to 65)	0.919	−16 (−78 to 45)	0.589
Vastus medialis	15 (−43 to 74)	0.597	−18 (−76 to 40)	0.534

↵* Time: negative value: HG is faster than CG.
↵† Muscle onsets: negative value: HG onset is earlier than CG.
Reaction time: time from visual signal to anticipatory postural adjustment; movement time: time from visual signal to foot being lifted off force platform.
