Core Tip
Core Tip: A body shape index (ABSI), an excellent body mass index, was used to substitute for the traditional body mass index to more objectively assess the degree of body size/obesity in athletes. Subsequently, multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine whether ABSI is a risk factor for poor knee function, lower extremity deep vein thrombosis, and fractures after anterior cruciate ligament surgery. The findings of this study have the potential to narrow the gap in previous research.
