In men, GJH was associated with an increased risk of unilateral ACL injury. Moreover, GJH was associated with greater postoperative knee laxity and inferior patient-reported outcome.

However, the included studies were heterogeneous and there is a need for consensus in the assessment of GJH within sports medicine.
