Non-occupational physical activity and risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer and mortality outcomes: a dose-response meta-analysis of large prospective studies
Conclusions Inverse non-linear dose–response associations suggest substantial protection against a range of chronic disease outcomes from small increases in non-occupational physical activity in inactive adults. PROSPERO registration number CRD42018095481.

Forecasting feels-like temperatures as a strategy to reduce heat illnesses during sport events
Many athletes, amateur and professional alike, compete in and train for outdoor running events every year, and even more participate in outdoor sports in general. Many major sport events such as the Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games and World Championships take place in summer and mostly in the Northern Hemisphere. Therefore, athletes are often at risk of sustaining heat illnesses during heat extremes, which are exacerbated by climate change.1 Heat illnesses describe a group of pathologies ranging from relatively minor to very severe symptoms such as potentially fatal exertional heat stroke.2 3 The risk for heat illnesse...

Traumatic encephalopathy syndrome: application of new criteria to a cohort exposed to repetitive head impacts
Conclusion The new TES criteria does distinguish a group of fighters with differences in regional brain volumes and reduced cognitive function. Our findings support the use of the NINDS criteria for TES in further research of the long-term effects of repetitive head impacts.

Infographic. Prehospital management of exertional heat stroke at sports competitions for Paralympic athletes
This infographic presents a summary of the prehospital management of exertional heat stroke (EHS) at sports competitions for Para athletes.1 Our original article was designed to provide Para athlete-specific modifications to the original EHS algorithm that was developed and implemented at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.2 Both the Olympic and Paralympic algorithms were successfully rolled out during educational workshops leading into the games, and implemented with support of the organising committee medical volunteers in Tokyo. It is the authors’ intention that these algorithms can be used at other events where Para at...

IOC consensus statement on recommendations and regulations for sport events in the heat
This document presents the recommendations developed by the IOC Medical and Scientific Commission and several international federations (IF) on the protection of athletes competing in the heat. It is based on a working group, meetings, field experience and a Delphi process. The first section presents recommendations for event organisers to monitor environmental conditions before and during an event; to provide sufficient ice, shading and cooling; and to work with the IF to remove regulatory and logistical limitations. The second section summarises recommendations that are directly associated with athletes’ behaviours...

Sleep and physical activity in relation to all-cause, cardiovascular disease and cancer mortality risk
Conclusion The detrimental associations of poor sleep with all-cause and cause-specific mortality risks are exacerbated by low PA, suggesting likely synergistic effects. Our study supports the need to target both behaviours in research and clinical practice.
