Abstract
Objective
To provide a systematic review and meta-analysis of the proportion of ankle sprains in running practices.
Design
Systematic review and meta-analysis.
Main outcome measures
We calculated the weighted summary proportion and conducted meta-analyses for runners, considering levels (elite/recreational) and disciplines (distance, track, cross-country, trail, and orienteering).
Results
32 studies were included in the systematic review and 19 were included in the meta-analysis with a level of quality ranging from poor to good. Proportion of ankle sprains in runners was 13.69% (95%CI = 7.40–21.54; I2 = 98.58%) in global, 12.20% (95%CI = 5.24–21.53; I2 = 89.31%) in elite, 19.40% (95%CI = 10.05–30.90; I2 = 99.09%) in recreational, 8.51% (95%CI = 4.22–14.12; I2 = 96.15%) in distance, 67.42% (95%CI = 0.50–82.85; I2 = 99.36%) in track, 27.07% (95%CI = 12.48–44.81; I2 = 97.97%) in cross-country, and 25.70% (95%CI = 19.87–32.14; I2 = 0.00) in orienteering.
Conclusions
Running practice results in significant proportion rate of ankle sprains. Recreational runners exhibit higher proportion than elite. Running disciplines, especially track, cross-country, and orienteering, influence reported ankle sprain rates, surpassing those of distance runners.
期刊介绍:
Physical Therapy in Sport is an international peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for the publication of research and clinical practice material relevant to the healthcare professions involved in sports and exercise medicine, and rehabilitation. The journal publishes material that is indispensable for day-to-day practice and continuing professional development. Physical Therapy in Sport covers topics dealing with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of injuries, as well as more general areas of sports and exercise medicine and related sports science.
The journal publishes original research, case studies, reviews, masterclasses, papers on clinical approaches, and book reviews, as well as occasional reports from conferences. Papers are double-blind peer-reviewed by our international advisory board and other international experts, and submissions from a broad range of disciplines are actively encouraged.
