Radiological Prevalence of Popliteal Artery Entrapment in Individuals With Anterior Leg Compartment Chronic Exertional Compartment Syndrome
Conclusions: The radiological prevalence of PAE and anterior leg CECS was 51.6%. All subjects with vascular studies (90.9%) had one or more tests confirming radiological PAE. These findings suggest that the coexistence of PAE and CECS is common, and the PAE protocol used has a high correlation with vascular studies. (Source: Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine)

Effect of Glucocorticoids on Athletic Performance: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Conclusions: Although there is evidence suggesting glucocorticoids have ergogenic effects, these improvements may differ depending on the specific type of drug, dose, and the administration time frame and are also limited by small sample sizes. Therefore, there is a need for large, high-quality RCTs as this may influence future doping policy and athlete care. (Source: Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine)

Characteristics of Injury in Collegiate Rodeo
Conclusions: Although the injury rate during rodeo competition was significantly higher than during practice in this study, a greater number of injuries were reported during practice. This indicates all college rodeo athletes can potentially benefit from available medical care. (Source: Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine)

Is the King–Devick Test a Reliable Tool in Wheelchair Athletes? A Preliminary Prospective Study in Wheelchair Basketball
Conclusions: The KD test shows good reliability among wheelchair basketball athletes without a concussion. A learning effect is demonstrated initially but plateaus on subsequent testing. Unlike athletes without a concussion, players with a clinically suspected concussion showed an increase in the KD test time. (Source: Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine)

Child Sport Concussion Assessment Tool 5th Edition: Normative Reference Values in Demographically Diverse Youth
Objectives: Examine sociodemographic differences (gender, age, and language spoken at home) on baseline Child Sport Concussion Assessment Tool 5th Edition (Child SCAT5) scores and establish normative reference data for the Child SCAT5 among middle school student athletes. Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: Nine middle schools in Virginia. Participants: A sample of 1355 athletes playing competitive school-sponsored sports (ages 11-13, M = 12.3 ± 0.8; 40.1% girls, 59.9% boys) during the 2017 and 2018 school year. Certified athletic trainers administered the Child SCAT5 within the first 2 weeks ...

Upper Lumbar Bone Stress Injuries in Elite Cricketers
Conclusions: Upper LBSI in elite cricketers occurs in approximately 2 out of 5 cases of LBSI. Clinicians should allow sufficient time for upper LBSI to resolve and unite (if a fracture) because cases that returned to bowling training earlier were less likely to achieve bony union, and those that failed to unite commonly went on to have a recurrent LBSI. Level of Evidence: Therapy/prognosis/diagnosis level 2b. (Source: Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine)

Similar Benefits Seen After Radial Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy or Autologous Blood Injection in Patients With Chronic Plantar Fasciitis—A Retrospective Cohort Study
This study demonstrated statistically significant improvements in self-reported measures of pain and local foot function after either procedure at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months, but no statistically significant differences were seen between groups at any time-period studied. At 6 months, the average pain using a 0 to 10 NRS was improved from 6.8 ± 1.8 to 4.0 ± 2.7 (P (Source: Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine)

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury and Knee Osteoarthritis: An Umbrella Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Conclusions: This study combines all data from previous systematic reviews into a single source to show that ACL injury markedly increases the risk for development of knee OA, which is likely to be present in the long term in approximately a third of patients who have reconstruction surgery. Surgical treatment does not reduce OA prevalence in the longer term compared with nonsurgical treatment. (Source: Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine)

Pediatric Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Current Concepts Review
Conclusion: Rerupture of the ACL in the pediatric population is a challenging complication that requires special attention. Diagnostic evaluation of repeat ACL ruptures is similar to primary injuries. Although outcomes after revision ACL reconstruction are expectedly worse than after primary reconstruction, athletes do return to sport after proper rehabilitation. Further research is needed to continue to improve outcomes in this high-risk population, aimed at continued knee stability, graft survivorship, and improved quality of life.

Surfing After Hip Resurfacing Surgery
Conclusion: No literature exists regarding the return to a high-impact sport as surfing after HRA. Most of our patients (71%) were able to return at least to their preoperative level of surfing after surgery. No complications related to this sport activity were observed during short-term follow-up. We believe that surfing is compatible with HRA, but long-term studies are necessary to assess the influence of this extreme sport on loosening and revision rates.
