Temporal trends in incidence of time-loss injuries in four male professional North American sports over 13 seasons
Abstract Sports-related injuries increase healthcare cost burden, and in some instances have harmful long term physical and psychological implications. There is currently a lack of comprehensive data on temporal injury trends across professional North American sports. The purpose of this study was t...
