Macrophage Depletion Attenuates Acute Renal Damage after Exhaustive
Exercise in Mice
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1827-3261Exhaustive exercise is known to induce acute renal damage. However, the precise
mechanisms remain unclear. We investigated the effects of macrophage depletion
on exhaustive exercise-induced acute renal damage. Male
C57BL/6 J mice were divided into four groups: sedentary with
control liposome (n=8), sedentary with clodronate liposome
(n=8), exhaustive exercise with control liposome (n=8), and
exhaustive exercise with clodronate liposome (n=8). Mice were treated
with clodronate liposomes or control liposomes intra...

Predictions of the Distance Running Performances of Female Runners
Using Different Tools
This study examined the validity and compared the precision and accuracy of a
distance-time linear model (DTLM), a power law and a nomogram to predict the
distance running performances of female runners. Official rankings of French
women (“senior” category: between 23 and 39 years old) for the
3000-m, 5000-m, and 10,000-m track-running events from 2005 to 2019 were
examined. Performances of runners who competed in the three distances during the
same year were noted (n=158). Mean values and standard deviation (SD) of
actual performances were 11.28±1....

Cardiovagal Modulation in Young and Older Male Adults Following Acute
Aerobic Exercise
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1843-7974We compared response patterns of cardiovagal modulation through heart-rate
variability (HRV) and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) indices at 10 and
60 min after an acute bout of high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE)
and moderate-intensity continuous exercise (MICE) in active young and older
adults. Twelve young (aged 20–40 years) and older (aged 57–76
years) healthy and active male adults performed an isocaloric acute bout of
HIIE, MICE, or a non-exercise condition in a randomized order. HRV and BRS
indices we...

Voluntary Increase of Minute Ventilation for Prevention of Acute
Mountain Sickness
This study evaluated the feasibility and efficacy of voluntary sustained
hyperventilation during rapid ascent to high altitude for the prevention of
acute mountain sickness (AMS). Study subjects (n=32) were volunteer
participants in a 2-day expedition to Mount Leoneras (4954 m), starting at 2800m
(base camp at 4120 m). Subjects were randomized to either: 1) an intervention
group using the voluntary hyperventilation (VH) technique targeting an end-tidal
CO2 (ETCO2)<20 mmHg; or 2) a group using
acetazolamide (AZ). During the expedition, respiratory ra...

Assessment of Fatigue and Recovery in Sport: Narrative
Review
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1834-7177Fatigue is a phenomenon associated with decreases in both physical and cognitive
performances and increases in injury occurrence. Competitive athletes are
required to complete demanding training programs with high workloads to elicit
the physiological and musculoskeletal adaptations plus skill acquisition
necessary for performance. High workloads, especially sudden rapid increases in
training loads, are associated with the occurrence of fatigue. At present, there
is limited evidence elucidating the underlying mechanisms ass...

Sports Injury Surveillance Systems and Guidelines in Japan: A
Systematic Review
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1836-0526This systematic review aimed to identify sports injury surveillance systems
(ISSs) and injury surveillance guidelines (ISGs) developed and currently used in
Japan. Additionally, the extent to which ISSs and ISGs developed overseas are
employed in Japan was also examined. A systematic search of electronic databases
was performed in March 2021. Prospective studies that investigated sports
injuries and targeted Japanese athletes or sports in Japan were included to
identify the following: (1) details of the ISSs or ISGs develop...

Head Injury Assessment in the Elite Level Rugby Union in Japan:
Review of 3 Seasons
This study confirmed significantly
higher HIA and concussion incidence rates over time. Although the HIA system
might have been established in the three seasons in JRTL, comprehensive
management needs to be improved to prevent repeated concussions. [...] Georg Thieme Verlag Rüdigerstraße 14, 70469 Stuttgart,

High-speed Training in a Specific Context in Soccer: Transition
Games
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1794-9567The aims of this study were to compare the load of three tasks designed to train
features of soccer: a transition game, a small-sided game with a change of
playing area, and a large-sided game. Twenty young elite players performed these
tasks. Variables measured were total distance covered (DC), distance covered at
14.0–17.9 km·h−1 (DC
14.0–17.9 km·h−1), distance
covered at 18.0–21 km·h−1 (DC
18–21 km·h−1), distance covered
> 21 km·h−1

Validity and Reliability of Two Near-infrared Spectroscopy Devices to
Measure Resting Hemoglobin in Elite Cyclists
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1828-8499A new method to monitor internal training load from muscle oxygen saturation
using near-infrared spectroscopy could be of practical application for research
and training purposes. This technology has been validated in different
scientific fields, including sports science, and Humon Hex and Moxy are two
leading brands. However, its relationship with hemoglobin has not been studied.
Forty-eight professional cyclists, 19 men and 29 women, underwent a blood test
to measure hemoglobin in the early morning. Immediately afterwards...

Sports, Myocarditis and COVID-19: Diagnostics, Prevention and
Return-to-play Strategies
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1810-5314Myocarditis is an umbrella term for non-ischemic myocardial inflammation and
remains a leading cause of sudden cardiac death in active individuals and
athletes. Accurate diagnosing is challenging and diseases could often remain
undetected. In the majority of cases, acute myocarditis resolves favourably.
However, a relevant proportion of patients may have an increased risk of
prognostically relevant cardiac arrhythmias and/or the development and
progression of maladaptive myocardial remodelling (dilated cardiomyopathy). This...

Cardiovascular Regulation During Acute Gravitational Changes with
Exhaling on Exertion
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1810-6646During gravitational changes or changes in the direction of action in relation to
the body, fluid displacements can be observed. In special cases different
breathing maneuvers (e. g., exhaling on exertion; Ex-Ex) are used to
counteract acute fluid shifts. Both factors have a significant impact on
cardiovascular regulation. Eight healthy male subjects were tested on a tilt
seat, long arm human centrifuge, and parabolic flight. The work aims to
investigate the effect of exhaling on exertion on the cardiovascular regulation
