Editorial: Towards Long-Term Musculoskeletal Health Benefits in Adolescent Athletes: Specific Challenges in Primary and Secondary Prevention in This Pivotal Period

Key Result

Adolescent-specific injury risk reduction strategies are required to address the high incidence of overuse injuries and the multifactorial risk factors present during youth sports participation.

Structured PICO

Population

Adolescent athletes (including young female Swedish competitive figure skaters, adolescent distance runners, elite youth soccer players, youth basketball players, and Canadian high school rugby players)

This editorial highlights the multifactorial nature of sports injuries in adolescent athletes and emphasizes the need for adolescent-specific primary and secondary prevention strategies.

Limitations

Small number of players and injury cases in some of the discussed studies
Limited evidence on the influence of biomechanics on running-related injury risk during growth and development
Lack of comprehensive longitudinal studies monitoring changes in running biomechanics and associated musculoskeletal tissue in adolescent runners
