PMID 34123542WHAT IT FOUND
This paper offers a theoretical framework for screening netball players but reports no new clinical data.
It suggests potential tests based on existing literature but does not prove any screening method reduces injury risk.
What this paper is
This is a clinical commentary that outlines theoretical frameworks for screening netball players for knee injury risk. It does not report methods or results from a new study, and therefore provides no evidence to change clinical practice.
The easy way to misread this
Do not treat the suggested screening tests as validated interventions. The paper proposes them based on theory and other studies, but it does not provide evidence that using these tests in netball players prevents injuries.
