Effective prevention of ACL injuries with neuromuscular and educational intervention .
This report has been verified
by one or more authors of the
original publication.
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Interventions Designed to Prevent Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries in Adolescents and Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Dr. J. Gagnier Discusses Interventions Designed to Prevent Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries in Adolescents and Adults
14 studies (6 RCTs and 8 cohort studies) were included in this meta-analysis and systematic review to assess the effectiveness of neuromuscular and educational interventions in the prevention of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. Approximately 27,000 participants were included from the 14 studies. The findings from this meta-analysis indicated that preventative interventions, including both neuromuscular and educational programs, appeared to reduce the incidence rate of ACL injuries by approximately 50%, although it should be noted there was variation in effect size between studies.
