Impact of Gender and Feature Set on Machine-Learning-Based Prediction of Lower-Limb Overuse Injuries Using a Single Trunk-Mounted Accelerometer.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Even though practicing sports has great health benefits, it also entails a risk of developing overuse injuries, which can elicit a negative impact on physical, mental, and financial health. Being able to predict the risk of an overuse injury arising is of widespread interest because this may play a vital role in preventing its occurrence. In this paper, we present a machine learning model trained to predict the occurrence of a lower-limb overuse injury (LLOI). This model was trained and evaluated using data from a three-dimensional accelerometer on the lower back, collected during a Cooper test performed by 161 first-year undergraduate students of a movement science program. In this study, gender-specific models performed better than mixed-gender models. The estimated area under the receiving operating characteristic curve of the best-performing male- and female-specific models, trained according to the presented approach, was, respectively, 0.615 and 0.645. In addition, the best-performing models were achieved by combining statistical and sports-specific features. Overall, the results demonstrated that a machine learning injury prediction model is a promising, yet challenging approach.
