The relationship between pain and associated characteristics of chronic ankle instability: A retrospective study
ConclusionPrevalence of pain in people with CAI was high and was related to perceived ankle instability. Number of sprains, age, gender and unilateral or bilateral sprain did not modify this result except for the first pain category (pain during daily activities). There is large gap in current knowledge about the impact of pain in people with CAI, and this topic needs further investigation.Graphical abstract (Source: Journal of Sport and Health Science)

Analysis of doping control test results in individual and team sports from 2003 to 2015
ConclusionAs suggested by the analysis, the incidence of AAF was not uniform across all sports disciplines, with the different proportions pointing to an uneven use of banned substances depending on the sport. This information might be useful for increasing the strength and efficacy of anti-doping policies in those sports with the highest prevalence in the use of banned substances.Graphical abstract (Source: Journal of Sport and Health Science)

Transition to forefoot strike reduces load rates more effectively than altered cadence
ConclusionForefoot strike gait-retraining resulted in significantly greater reductions in VALR and similar increases in cadence compared to cadence gait-retraining in the short and long term. Cadence gait-retraining resulted in small reductions in VALR at only the 6-month follow-up.Graphical AbstractVertical average (VALR) and vertical instantaneous (VILR) load rates reduced and persisted over time with forefoot strike (FFS) gait retraining. Increased cadence (CAD) gait retraining had small load rate reductions. (Source: Journal of Sport and Health Science)

Impacts of exercise intervention on different diseases and organ functions in mice
Conclusion: Our review strongly suggests that exercise intervention is a cornerstone in the diseases prevention and treatment in mice. Because exercise interventions in humans typically focus on chronic diseases, national fitness, and body weight loss, and typically have low intervention compliance rates, it is important to use mice models to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the health benefits from exercise interventions in humans.Graghical Abstract (Source: Journal of Sport and Health Science)

Longitudinal associations of physical activity and pubertal development with academic achievement in adolescents
ConclusionLower levels of MVPA were associated with lower GPA in boys at baseline. Girls who were continuously inactive had lower GPA over the follow-up period than those who were continuously active. Finally, earlier pubertal development was associated with better academic achievement in girls. (Source: Journal of Sport and Health Science)

Effects of blood flow restriction without additional exercise on strength reductions and muscular atrophy following immobilization: A systematic review
ConclusionAlthough potentially useful, the high risk of bias presented by original studies limits the indication of BFR without concomitant exercise as an effective countermeasure against strength reduction and atrophy mediated by immobilization.Graphical abstract (Source: Journal of Sport and Health Science)

The exercise–cognition relationship: A virtuous circle
Publication date: July 2019Source: Journal of Sport and Health Science, Volume 8, Issue 4Author(s): Michel Audiffren, Nathalie AndréAbstractExercise and health psychology have generated 2 sets of empirical studies guided by separate theory-driven axes. The first axis focuses on the causal relationship between chronic exercise and cognition and, more particularly, high-level cognitive functions such as executive functions (EFs). The second axis examines factors influencing the adherence process to physical activity (PA). Research conducted during the past decade shows that these 2 topics are closely linked, with EFs and ef...

Modeling the dose–response rate/associations between VO2max and self-reported Physical Activity Questionnaire in children and adolescents
ConclusionHealth practitioners should be aware that encouraging greater PA (same dose) in inactive and underweight children will result in greater gains in VO2max (response) compared with their active and overweight/obese counterparts.Graphical abstract (Source: Journal of Sport and Health Science)

Adolescents’ perspectives on a school-based physical activity intervention: A mixed method study
ConclusionWe interpreted adolescent perspectives of intervention components and implementation to provide insights into future complex interventions aimed at increasing young people's physical activity in school-based settings. The intervention component mentorship was liked in principle, but implementation issues undesirably impacted satisfaction; competition was disliked by girls and shy/inactive students. The results highlight the importance of considering gender differences in preference of competition, and extensive mentorship training.Graphical abstract (Source: Journal of Sport and Health Science)
