Summary
This study tested whether a personalized injury prevention program works better than standard care for Taiwanese adolescent baseball players. Researchers grouped 300 players by injury risk (high, medium, low) and gave high-risk players extra education and doctor checkups. The goal was to reduce throwing-arm injuries and improve quality of life over one year.
