The purpose of this study was to provide an overview of studies analyzing the Comparison of sports injuries among school going children according to their gender. Searches for this review were conducted using Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, ERIC, SPORT Discus and Medline with Full-Text databases, and studies from electronic databases from inception to 27 March 2022 were identified. Out of 799 studies, 09 met the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. A total of nine studies articles were kept, representing the Associative studies that exclusively compared the gender differences in sports-related injuries among school-age children. From the nine studies that were considered, three dealt with men, and six with both men and females student’s sports injuries. Results showed that Both male and female school-aged children who participate in structured sports training have a marked decline in sports-related injuries. The primary conclusions of the research that were part of the evaluation highlighted some important problems relating to sports injuries in young boys and girls. The majority of the papers examined in the review supported the finding that male children experience sports injuries more frequently than female children Ali Rafaqat , Marina Ali, Adila Tahir, Suhail Karim - Comparison of sports injuries among school going children according to their gender. - Ita.

ABSTRACT Background. Early sport specialization (ESS) has been theorized to be related to increased risk factors for musculoskeletal injury in young skeletally immature athletes. Objective. The objective of this article is to identify possible correlated pathologies, skeletally immature soccer players, with Early sport specialization (ESS) Methods. To achieve this goal, we conducted a review of articles published in Medline PubMed without time limit. Results. Our review showed three possible correlations in skeletally immature soccer players : a) early sports specialization and overuse injuries, b) early sports specialization and Burnout c) early sports specialization and postural/ dysfunctional frameworks. We can point out that young skeletally immature athletes participating in sports that can be defined as high impact such as soccer and basketball, field hockey, showed a higher prevalence of FAI conflict type Cam. Conclusions. Early sport specialization (ESS) in young soccer players is associated with a clear increase in both the psychological component related to burnout and overuse pathologies with postural/ dysfunctional pictures of soccer technical expressiveness Load analysis and activity diversification can help reduce the risk of sports specialization in young soccer players. Keywords : sport specialization in youth, skeletal immaturity , overuse Injuries in the skeletally immature injuries in young soccer, burnout in sport specialization ABSTRACT Background. Si è teorizzato che una Early sport specialization (ESS) sia collegata ad un aumento dei fattori di rischio di lesioni muscoloscheletriche in giovani atleti scheletricamente immaturi. Obbiettivo. L'obiettivo di questo articolo è quello di identificare eventuali patologie correlabili in calciatori scheletricamente immaturi, con la Early sport specialization (ESS) Metodi. Per raggiungere questo obiettivo, abbiamo condotto una revisione di articoli pubblicati su Medline PubMed senza limiti di tempo. Risultati. La nostra revisione ha evidenziato tre possibili correlazioni in calciatori scheletricamente immaturi : a) precoce specializzazione sportiva e lesioni da overuse, b) precoce specializzazione sportiva e Burnout c) precoce specializzazione sportiva e quadri posturo/disfunzionali. Possiamo sottolineare che giovani atleti scheletricamente immaturi che partecipano a sport definibili ad alto impatto come calcio e basket, hockey, hanno evidenziato una maggiore prevalenza del conflitto FAI tipo Cam. Conclusioni. Early sport specialization (ESS) nei giovani calciatori è associata ad un evidente incremento sia della componente psicologica legata al Burnout sia delle patologie da overuse con quadri posturo/disfunzionali dell’espressività tecnica calcistica . L’analisi del carico e la diversificazione delle attività può contribuire a ridurre il rischio di specializzazione sportiva nel giovane calciatore.
