Low back pain was reported by 19 female and 23 male skaters. The most frequent acute injury was ankle sprain. In singles female skaters, the most frequent overuse injury was stress fracture (19.8%), followed by jumper's knee (14.9%). In singles male skaters, jumper's knee (16.1%) was the most frequent injury, followed by Osgood-Schlatter disease (14.2%). More than 50% of injuries in young singles figure skaters involved overuse syndromes. Pairs skaters and ice dance skaters had a higher risk of acute injury than overuse syndrome because of falls from lifts and throw jumps.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Programs to improve postural alignment, flexibility, and strength, especially during the asynchronous period of bone and soft tissue development, should be instituted to prevent and reduce overuse syndromes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/03635465030310040601","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,18]],"date-time":"2017-07-18T06:20:41Z","timestamp":1500358841000},"page":"511-517","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":105,"title":["The Incidence of Injuries in Elite Junior Figure Skaters"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Sanda","family":"Dubravcic-Simunjak","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Sveti Duh General Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marko","family":"Pecina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Sveti Duh General Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Harm","family":"Kuipers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Sveti Duh General Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jane","family":"Moran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Sveti Duh General Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Miroslav","family":"Haspl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Sveti Duh General Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2003,7,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-03635465030310040601","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0278-5919(20)31443-5"},{"key":"bibr2-03635465030310040601","unstructured":"AuthorsenS., WingendorfM., WeyerR.: Boot related injuries as seen at the Olympic Training Center, Dortmund, Germany, in ISU International Congress on Medicine and Science in Figure Skating.
