Repetitive head impacts among professional fighters: a pilot study evaluating Traumatic Encephalopathy Syndrome and postural balance
CONCLUSION: This pilot study provides preliminary evidence of a relationship between declining postural balance and a TES diagnosis among retired professional fighters with elevated RHI exposure. Further research exploring more complex assessments such as the Functional Gait Assessment may be of benefit to improve clinical understanding of the relationship between TES, RHI, and balance.PMID:38418380 | DOI:10.1080/00913847.2024.2325331 (Source: The Physician and Sportsmedicine Online)

Long-term manifestations of COVID-19 in athletes: a narrative review
CONCLUSIONS: While severe cardiac complications are rare, athletes with long COVID often experience symptoms such as fatigue, dyspnea, palpitations, and exercise intolerance. To manage athletes with long COVID, individualized and structured return-to-play programs with the involvement of multidisciplinary teams are crucial. This underscores the importance of recognizing long COVID in athletes, raising awareness of its potential impacts, and implementing strategies to ensure a safe return to play.PMID:38375735 | DOI:10.1080/00913847.2024.2321629 (Source: The Physician and Sportsmedicine Online)

The effectiveness of the Copenhagen adduction exercise on improving eccentric hip adduction strength among soccer players with groin injury: a randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSION: Incorporating the CAE into rehabilitation programs significantly improves EHAD strength, decreases pain scores, and reduces self-reported disability in soccer players with adductor-related groin pain.REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT05589623.PMID:38376593 | DOI:10.1080/00913847.2024.2321958 (Source: The Physician and Sportsmedicine Online)
