Neuromuscular training reduces ACL injury in younger female athletes .
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.
The influence of age on the effectiveness of neuromuscular training to reduce anterior cruciate ligament injury in female athletes: A meta-analysis
Am J Sports Med. 2013 Jan;41(1):203-15. doi: 10.1177/0363546512460637. Epub 2012 Oct 914 trials (7 RCTs and 7 chort studies) from 1995-2012, studying the effectiveness of Neuromuscular Training (NMT) on different ages of female athletes in prevention of Anterior Cruciate Ligament injuries, were included in the meta-analysis. The results indicated that the program had the greatest effect on females younger than 18 years old, compared to older age groups and that there was a significant reduction in the risk of injury with NMT compared to a control group.
