Full-Season Injury Epidemiology in TeamGym-A Prospective Cohort Study Involving 474 Gymnasts.

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
Team gymnastics (TeamGym), a sport primarily practiced by girls/women, has rapidly gained popularity among adolescents. Despite a high pain prevalence among gymnasts, comprehensive epidemiological studies on injuries are lacking. This study aimed to investigate injury incidence rates, both overall and by body region including information on time-loss and non-time-loss injuries, type and severity, in competitive TeamGym gymnasts aged 10-30 years. During a 10-month season (August 2021-June 2022), a cohort of 474 gymnasts (73% women) was prospectively followed through weekly text-message queries on injuries, time-loss (partial or full absence from training/competition due to an injury), and gymnastic training and competition exposure. Injuries were verified and categorized through standardized telephone interviews. An injury with reported time-loss of ≥ 4 calendar weeks was classified as severe. Incidence rates were calculated using Generalized Poisson regression. Totally 1382 injuries were recorded, and the overall incidence rate was 14.7 injuries per 1000 h of exposure (95% CI: 13.3-16.3) with an incidence rate of 14.0 for women and 17.2 for men. The foot (24.5%), knee (22.0%), lower leg (10.4%), and lower back (10.4%) were the most frequently injured regions overall in both sexes, and > 60% of the injuries were due to overuse. Incidence rate for severe injuries was 0.5 (95% CI: 0.4-0.7), which predominantly included injuries to the foot/heel (32%), lower back (21%), and knee (19%). The injury incidence rate in TeamGym is high, with three-quarters of injuries being non-time-loss, and nearly two-thirds caused by overuse. Over half of all injuries affected the feet, knees, and lower back across both sexes.
