Article Synopsis
- - The systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate how effective exercise-based programs are at preventing non-contact musculoskeletal injuries in football players compared to control groups.
- - The review analyzed ten studies involving over 13,000 players, revealing that these programs could lower the risk of such injuries by about 23%, although the evidence was deemed very low quality.
- - The study concludes that while exercise-based programs may help reduce injury risk, further high-quality research is required to confirm their effectiveness in preventing these injuries among football players.
