Efficacy of Repair for ACL Injury: A Meta ‑analysis of Randomized
Controlled Trials
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1755-4925We aim to compare the curative effect of primary repair for anterior cruciate
ligament (ACL) injury with reconstruction and provide the reliable evidence for
its clinical application. The literatures were searched in PubMed, EMBASE,
Springer, and other medical literature databases published between January 1970
and June 2021. Basic characteristics, surgery technique, clinical outcome scores
and physical examination results were recorded and evaluated. Seven randomized
controlled trials (RCT) were eligible for inclusion. The...

Assessment of Peak Oxygen Uptake with a Smartwatch and its Usefulness
for Training of Runners
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1686-9068Peak oxygen uptake (˙VO2peak) is an important factor
contributing to running performance. Wearable technology may allow the
assessment of ˙VO2peak more frequently and on a larger scale.
We aim to i) validate the ˙VO2peak assessed by a smartwatch
(Garmin Forerunner 245), and ii) discuss how this parameter may assist to
evaluate and guide training procedures. A total of 23 runners (12 female, 11
male; ˙VO2peak:
48.6±6.8 ml∙min−1∙kg−1)
visited the laboratory twice to determine their ˙VO2pe...

Active Vegetarians Show Better Lower Limb Strength and Power than
Active Omnivores
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1753-1322Vegetarian diets have become popular among athletes and active individuals and
can have advantages for physical performance, but the results are still
conflicting regarding muscle strength and power. The aim of this study was to
evaluate the diet and physical performance of vegetarians through tests of
dynamic, isometric, and relative strength; muscle power; and aerobic capacity.
In this cross-sectional study, 32 vegetarians and 26 omnivores, who were
physically active, were evaluated for the Healthy Eating Index and perfor...

Muscle Oxygenation during Repeated Cycling Sprints in a Combined Hot
and Hypoxic Condition
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1495-5612The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of a combined hot and
hypoxic environment on muscle oxygenation and performance during repeated
cycling sprints. In a single-blind, counterbalanced, cross-over research design,
10 male athletes performed three sets of 3 × 10-s maximal pedaling
interspersed with 40-s recovery between sprints under four different
environments. Each condition consisted of a control (CON; 20°C,
20.9% FiO2), normobaric hypoxia (HYP; 20°C,
14.5% FiO2), hot (HOT; 35°C, 20.9%
