Healio highlights the most-read research, topics, and news in orthopedic sports medicine in 2024. Some key points include the projected increase in orthopedic-related sports injuries in patients aged at least 65 years by 2040, a decline in sports participation and physical activity from middle school to high school, the benefits of ACL reconstruction augmentation, and the impact of name, image, and likeness rules on team physicians and surgeons. Additionally, soccer cleats with aggressive stud patterns may be linked to lower extremity injuries, and patients on testosterone replacement therapy may have an increased risk of ACL injury.
