Sports injuries during Kabaddi: a literature review.
Review in Annals of joint, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background and Objective: Kabaddi is an athletic contact sport that involves power, aggression, fine mind-body balance, agility, and swift reflexes. Since Kabaddi is a contact sport, athletes face a higher risk of injuries during competition and training. There is a paucity of literature regarding sports injuries during this game. This review article lays down a plinth-stone for global recognition of this game and associated sports injuries, intending to improve awareness in the sports medicine fraternity and boost further research related to this topic. Methods: A comprehensive synthesis of the relevant literature was conducted to provide insights for clinicians, trainers, and players to enhance injury prevention and rehabilitation strategies. Key Content and Findings: Kabaddi, a traditional Indian sport, is gaining popularity worldwide. Its physically demanding nature poses a significant risk for sports injuries among players. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures with concurrent meniscal injuries are the most common soft tissue injuries in Kabaddi. However, due to the sport's aggressive and physical nature, nearly all types of injuries are possible. Conclusions: This review article highlights the mechanisms of injury and common injuries associated with Kabaddi. It also offers a comprehensive overview of the sport's origin, regulations, and etiquette. This review concludes that a multidisciplinary approach involving physiotherapists, sports orthopaedic specialists, and medical teams is crucial for conditioning players and minimizing injury risk.
