The incidence of military training-related injuries in Chinese new recruits: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Journal of the Royal Army Medical Corps 2018 August
INTRODUCTION: Training-related injuries are the main reason for disability, long-term rehabilitation, functional impairment and premature discharge from military service. The aim of this study was to identify the incidence of injuries in the training of Chinese new recruits via a systematic review of the literature.
METHOD: A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the combined incidence of military training-related injuries in Chinese new recruits. The electronic databases of full-text journals were searched, and the Loney criteria were used to assess the quality of eligible articles. Summary estimates were obtained using random-effects models. Subgroup analyses and publication bias tests were performed.
RESULTS: Fifty-five eligible articles representing 109 611 Chinese new recruits met the inclusion criteria, of which 21 253 recruits were clinically diagnosed with military training-related injuries. The combined incidence of military training-related injuries in Chinese new recruits was found to be 21.04%.
CONCLUSIONS: An increased incidence of training injuries was found in more recent years, underscoring the need for further research on the risk factors associated with their causation.
