Abbreviation: ACL, anterior cruciate ligament.

a

ACL injury rate = number of ACL injury events/participants in the group (control, intervention).

b

Indicates attendance and completion rates were extracted or calculated from original literature.

c

Overall compliance rate = attendance rate × the completion rate.
