Prior non-groin injury may flag elevated groin injury risk in elite soccer players; leaves open whether prevention alters outcomes.
Langhout et al. (2018) conducted a cohort in Groin injury (n=190). General injury in the previous season vs. No general injury in the previous season was evaluated on Within-season groin injury (HR 5.1, 95% CI 1.8-14.6, p=0.003). General injury sustained in the previous season to locations other than the groin significantly increased the risk of groin injury during the following season (HR 5.1).
