The Society of Sports Therapists: reciprocating kindness during the pandemic
Graduate Sports Therapists are healthcare professionals, who have the knowledge, skills and ability to work with patients along the continuum of injury prevention, assessment, treatment and rehabilitation. They aim to return individuals to optimum levels of functional, occupational and sports-specific fitness. The five key areas of competency that underpin Sports Therapy are (1) prevention; (2) recognition and evaluation; (3) management, treatment and referral; (4) rehabilitation; and (5) education and professional practice issues. Graduate Sports Therapists are highly suited to supporting those who are physically active a...

Personal strategies to mitigate the effects of air pollution exposure during sport and exercise: a narrative review and position statement by the Canadian Academy of Sport and Exercise Medicine and the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology
Air pollution is among the leading environmental threats to health around the world today, particularly in the context of sports and exercise. With the effects of air pollution, pollution episodes (eg, wildfire conflagrations) and climate change becoming increasingly apparent to the general population, so have their impacts on sport and exercise. As such, there has been growing interest in the sporting community (ie, athletes, coaches, and sports science and medicine team members) in practical personal-level actions to reduce the exposure to and risk of air pollution. Limited evidence suggests the following strategies may ...

Mortality and health-related habits in 900 Finnish former elite athletes and their brothers.
CONCLUSIONS: Former elite athletes are more physically active, smoke less, have better self-rated health and live longer than their brothers. Genetic differences between athletes and brothers, aerobic training for endurance elite sports and a healthier lifestyle may all contribute to reduced mortality.

Injury epidemiology and risk factors in competitive artistic gymnasts: a systematic review.
CONCLUSION: Injury incidence and prevalence results are substantial among artistic gymnasts of all competitive levels. Gymnasts who train at highly competitive levels and are exposed to competition environments are a greater risk of injury. Future researchers should implement consistent reporting methods.

It is good to feel better, but better to feel good: whether a patient finds treatment 'successful' or not depends on the questions researchers ask.
CONCLUSION: We applied change criteria as well as cross-sectional follow-up criteria to interpret trial outcomes with more clinical focus. We suggest researchers apply MIC, PASS and TF thresholds to enhance interpretation of KOOS and other patient-reported scores. The findings from this study can improve shared decision-making processes for people with an acute ACL injury.

Statement on methods in sport injury research from the 1st METHODS MATTER Meeting, Copenhagen, 2019.
and MW, Khan KM, Ardern CL, Verhagen E
Abstract
High quality sports injury research can facilitate sports injury prevention and treatment. There is scope to improve how our field applies best practice methods-methods matter (greatly!). The 1st METHODS MATTER Meeting, held in January 2019 in Copenhagen, Denmark, was the forum for an international group of researchers with expertise in research methods to discuss sports injury methods. We discussed important epidemiological and statistical topics within the field of sports injury research. With this opinion document, we provide the main take-home messages that emerg...

Effectiveness of progressive tendon-loading exercise therapy in patients with patellar tendinopathy: a randomised clinical trial.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with PT, PTLE resulted in a significantly better clinical outcome after 24 weeks than EET. PTLE are superior to EET and are therefore recommended as initial conservative treatment for PT.

Rugbys implementation lessons: the importance of a 'compliance wedge to support successful implementation for injury prevention
World Rugby (the world governing body for rugby) has been committed to evidence-based risk management of concussion since introducing an off-field assessment in 2012. That year, the Concussion in Sports consensus meeting recommended the SCAT3 as a standardised assessment for concussion in sport. The SCAT3 and SCAT5 are the basis for the World Rugby Head Injury Assessment (HIA) protocol.1 World Rugby faced two significant obstacles when aiming to implement a concussion risk management plan: (1) the global nature of the game—rugby is played in over 120 countries, and (2) rugby is a limited-interchange sport (players un...

Where are female editors from low-income and middle-income countries? A comprehensive assessment of gender, geographical distribution and countrys income group of editorial boards of top-ranked rehabilitation and sports science journals
Conclusions
Women and researchers affiliated with institutions from low-income and middle-income countries are under-represented on the editorial boards of top-ranked rehabilitation and sports science journals indexed in the Scopus database. Editors are responsible for promoting research in their specific field, and therefore, the current leadership in rehabilitation and sports science journals should consider diversifying their editorial boards by providing equitable opportunities to women and researchers from a broader geographical distribution.

Progress over 30 years should not mean principles have to change: a Society of Sports Therapists perspective
The development of Sports Therapy principles When The Society of Sports Therapists was formed in 1990, the Sport and Exercise Medicine (SEM) landscape, especially in the UK, was significantly different to how it is today, even though the overriding principles of care and protection remain the same. Many of the practitioners working with teams and/or governing bodies at that time, did so primarily on a voluntary basis, that often required them to use either annual or unpaid leave to accompany teams or attend tournaments, including Olympic and Commonwealth Games. It was also a time when the need to have formal qualifications...

Orchard Sports Injury and Illness Classification System (OSIICS) version 14 and Italian translation
The Orchard Sports Injury and Illness Classification System (OSIICS) was released in version 13 as an upgrade to the Orchard Sports Injury Classification System in early 2020,1 after being conceived at an IOC consensus meeting in Lausanne in October 2019,2 alongside a new version of the Sport Medicine Diagnostic Coding System (SMDCS). This was less than 3 years ago (a short time) but seemingly eons back in the prepandemic days when international flying was like catching a bus. As with all classification systems, the OSIICS requires reassessment and updating, in this case to OSIICS version 14.0 (figure 1). Coding for COVID-...
