In the comparative analyses, prevalence proportion ratio was used to describe the association between injury prevalence proportion and age-groups, solely in the adult group.
Prevalence proportion difference, by binomial regression, was used to compare the association between injury prevalence proportion and gender, both among adults and children.
The prevalence and prevalence proportion of sport injuries has been widely investigated across sports.
No difference in injury prevalence proportion existed between boys and girls.
The secondary aim was to describe the prevalence and prevalence proportion of injuries in different sports.
The prevalence proportion ratio is calculated with the youngest group, 16 19 years, as reference.
Table 3 shows the injury prevalence proportion in different age-groups amongst adults and adolescents.
Table 3 shows the injury prevalence proportion ratio between age groups amongst active.
In 2011, the prevalence proportion of physically active children and adults in Denmark was 86% and 64%, respectively (Laub, 2013).
Males reported significantly more injuries than females (difference in prevalence proportion: 9.2%-points [95%CI: 6.7%-points; 11.8%-points]).
Therefore, the primary aim of this study was to add to the literature the prevalence proportion of sport injuries in a representative sample of the general Danish population.
