after Return-to-Sport
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-2108-5219At the time of return-to-sport, anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed athletes
still show altered neuromechanics in their injured leg during single leg hopping
tasks. Part of these alterations can be magnified when these athletes are
fatigued. So far, little is known whether fatigue-induced landing alterations
persist after return-to-sport. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate
whether these alterations persist in the six months following return-to-sport.
Sixteen anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed athlet...

Previous Injury and Lower Well-being Increase Injury Risk in Female
Adolescent Athletes
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-2108-6463Several risk factors for injury have been suggested in female elite athletes.
However, there is a lack of prospective studies in young female athletes where
multiple risk factors have been studied. The aim of this study was to identify
risk factors for injury in female adolescent elite athletes. Substantial
injuries were monitored in 222 athletes using the validated Oslo Sports Trauma
Research Centre Questionnaire over 20 weeks. Over 20 potential risk factors were
explored. Based on a binomial generalized linear mixed model...

Relaxed Alert Electroencephalography Screening for Mild Traumatic
Brain Injury in Athletes
This study was designed as a proof-of-principle feasibility trial for
athletic trainers at a sports facility to generate electroencephalograms (EEGs)
from student athletes for discriminating (mTBI) associated EEGs from uninjured
ones. A total of 47 EEGs were generated, with 30 athletes recruited at baseline
(BL) pre-season, after a concussive injury (IN), and post-season (PS). Outcomes
included: 1) visual analyses of EEGs by a neurologist; 2) support vector machine
(SVM) classification for inferences about whether particular groups belonged to
the three ...

Protein Turnover in Skeletal Muscle: Looking at Molecular Regulation
towards an Active Lifestyle
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-2044-8277Skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue, able to change its mass and
functional properties in response to several stimuli. Skeletal muscle mass is
influenced by the balance between protein synthesis and breakdown, which is
regulated by several signaling pathways. The relative contribution of
Akt/mTOR signaling, ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, autophagy among other
signaling pathways to protein turnover and, therefore, to skeletal muscle mass,
differs depending on the wasting or loading condition and muscle type. By

Network Meta-analysis of Combined Strength and Power Training for
Countermovement Jump Height
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-2105-0540Combined strength and power training in a training program is considered to
improve the vertical jump, which is frequently quantified using the
countermovement jump height. It is not yet clear whether one of the different
training set structures, such as complex training, contrast training, compound
training and traditional training, is superior to another. The aim of this
review is to describe and assess the comparative effects of the set structures
on countermovement jump height in healthy subjects. A systematic review an...

The Impact of Sport-discipline and Sex on Physical Fitness and Bone
Markers in Athletes
This study was performed to determine the impact of sex and sport-discipline on
physical fitness and bone markers in young sub-elite track and field athletes.
One hundred and forty-four track and field sub-elite athletes (78 males
aged 17.8±1.6 years; 66 females aged 17.2±1.9 years) volunteered
to participate in this study and were categorized according to their disciplines
in endurance (EG: n=67) or power athletes (PG: n=77). A
significant main effect of sex was observed for C-telopeptide type I collagen
(CTx) (F=11.37; p<0.001; η2=0.10,

Relationship between Euthyroidism and Muscle Mass and Strength: A
Systematic Review
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-2093-2881Thyroid hormones play a crucial role in skeletal muscle development, suggesting
that thyroid function may influence muscle mass and muscle strength, which are
both fundamental health-related indicators of several age-related consequences.
However, whether there is a relationship between thyroid hormones, muscle mass,
and muscle strength in individuals without thyroid dysfunctions is still
unknown. Therefore, this systematic review aims to investigate whether thyroid
hormones are related to muscle mass and strength parameter...

Acute and Chronic Effects of Strength Training on Plasma Levels of
Adipokines in Man
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-2079-1607Adipose tissue is specialized cells that produce and release adipokines. Exercise
may modulate adipokine production in adipocytes. The aim of this longitudinal
study was to evaluate the acute and chronic effects of strength training (ST) on
plasma levels of adiponectin, leptin, and resistin. Twelve untrained young male
participants (23.42±2.67 years) were selected. The training protocol
consisted of 3 exercises, with 3 sets of 65% of 1RM (one-repetition
maximum) with pause of 90 s between sets with duration of

Determinants of Dual-task Gait Speed in Older Adults with and without
Parkinson ’s Disease
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-2085-1429Mobility difficulties for people with Parkinson’s disease (PwPD) are more
pronounced when they perform a simultaneous cognitive task while walking.
Although it is known that neurodegeneration results in widespread motor and
brain impairments, few studies have comprehensively examined possible physical
and mental determinants of dual task walking in PwPD. In this cross-sectional
study, we aimed to investigate if and how muscle strength (sit-to-stand 30-sec
test), cognition (mini-mental state examination) and functionality ...

Duration Effects on Wingate and Functional Power Threshold Test
Outputs in Female Cyclists
In conclusion, the
time variations assessed do not alters power outcomes in female cyclists.
However, higher acute fatigue can be observed in the WAnT of 30 sec,
which suggests the use of the test of 20 sec to allow continue training
afterwards. [...] Georg Thieme Verlag Rüdigerstraße 14, 70469 Stuttgart,

Positional Differences in Muscle-to-bone Ratio in National Football
League Players
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-2089-8068The purpose of the present study was to examine the muscle-to-bone ratio (MBR) in
National Football League (NFL) players. Three hundred and forty-six NFL players
had their total body lean, fat and bone masses determined using dual X-ray
absorptiometry and were compared to 228 age-matched, healthy male controls.
Compared to the control group, NFL players had a significantly lower percent
total body fat (17.90±6.92 vs. 22.93±8.96%,
p=0.053), but significantly greater total fat mass (19.76±11.29
vs. 17.84±12.11...

Epidemiology of International Match Injuries in Scottish Rugby: A
Prospective Cohort Study
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-2038-3452Fifteen-a-side rugby union (“rugby”) is a full-contact sport
played separately by men and women, with large injury incidences reported
previously. Context specific injury surveillance fulfils governing
bodies’ duty of care to understand risks to player welfare, yet no
contemporary match injury epidemiology studies exist for international players
in Scotland. The current study therefore aimed to describe the incidence,
severity, burden and nature of match injuries sustained by Scotland’s
men’s and women...

Validity of Weekly and Monthly Perceived Exertion in
Runners
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-2058-8049The development of the rating of perceived exertion (RPE) enables the easy
assessment of runners’ training strain as well as training load (TL).
However, the long-term and retrospective validity of TL assessment using RPE
scales still needs further investigation. Therefore, this study examined the
validity of weekly and monthly ratings of perceived exertion (W-RPE, M-RPE) in
assessing TL in runners. Healthy adult runners (n=53) rated perceived
exertion using the modified category-ratio 10 (CR-10) scale for each week of a

Relationship Between Body Size and Skeletal Age with Muscle Damage in
Young Soccer Players
This study verified the relationship between body size and skeletal age (SA) with
the behavior of blood markers of muscle damage and delayed onset muscle soreness
(DOMS) after a soccer match in the U-13 and U-15 categories. The sample
consisted of 28 soccer players in the U-13 and 16 in the U-15 categories.
Creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and DOMS were evaluated up to
72 h after the match. Muscle damage was elevated at 0 h in U-13,
and from 0 h to 24 h in U-15. DOMS increased from 0 h to
72 h in U-13 and from 0 h to 48 ...
