The aim of this scoping review was to comprehensively examine the Upper Quarter Y-Balance Test (UQYBT), including reference values, reliability, determinants, and its practical application. By including studies irrespective of publication date, participant demographics, or research purpose, provided they were in English and incorporated UQYBT as a primary or secondary variable, an extensive dataset was collected. The focus was on limb-length-normalized results to establish standardized reference metrics. Reliability studies highlighted the UQYBT's consistency across sessions and raters. The application of UQYBT to assess injury risk is questionable. Studies assessing its relationship with sports performance have also yielded varying results. UQYBT seems to be sensitive to various exercise based-interventions, as shown by several clinical trials. This review furnishes practitioners and clinicians with valuable insights for the application of UQYBT in sports and healthcare settings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
