Article Synopsis
- High rates of ACL injuries in girls' and women's sports are a growing concern, prompting attention from researchers and organizations.
- The use of athlete-exposures (AEs) as a measure to estimate these injury rates has limitations, particularly in gender comparisons due to differences in training-to-match ratios and team sizes between men and women.
- The authors urge researchers to collect more detailed data, considering factors like individual-level AEs and contextualizing the findings, to accurately assess gender/sex disparities in ACL injuries.

School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences, Loughborough University, Loughborough, UK.
Objective: Interpersonal violence (IV) in sport is challenging to define, prevent and remedy due to its subjectivity and complexity. The 2024 International Olympic Committee Consensus on Interpersonal Violence and Safeguarding aimed to synthesise evidence on IV and safeguarding in sport, introduce a new conceptual model of IV in sport and offer more accessible safeguarding guidance to all within the sports ecosystem by merging evidence with insights from Olympic athletes.
Methods: A 15-member expert panel performed a scoping review following Joanna Briggs Institute methodologies.
