The Sports Gene: why the '10,000 hour rule' doesn't always make winners
The '10,000 hour rule' now dictates the way many athletes are trained. But practice makes little difference, says David Epstein in an extract from his new book, without the 'trainability' geneIt started with musicians. In 1993, three psychologists turned to the Music Academy of West Berlin, which had a global reputation for producing world-class violinists. The academy helped the psychologists identify 10 of the "best" violin students, those who could become international soloists; 10 students who were "good" and could make a living in a symphony orchestra; and 10 lesser students they categorised as "music teache...

Welcome back to your academic home: AMSSM special issue
As with many life events marked in relation to March 2020 when COVID-19 became a global pandemic, the publication of this year’s American Medical Society for Sports Medicine (AMSSM) special issue of the British Journal of Sports Medicine corresponds with the 2-year mark of this pandemic. During that time, AMSSM members (similar to our colleagues around the world) have learnt to navigate the ever-changing challenges of practising medicine, caring for sports teams, conducting research, advocating for healthy communities, and educating the next generation of sports and exercise medicine physicians during a pandemic.

Rating a Sports Medicine Surgeon ’s “Quality” in the Modern Era: an Analysis of Popular Physician Online Rating Websites
ConclusionThere was a low degree of correlation among online websites for surgeon ratings. Female surgeons and those with fewer years in practice appear to have higher ratings on these websites; comment content analysis suggests that high and low ratings are influenced by perceived surgeon competence and affability.

Screening athletes for undetected heart problems: What parents need to know now
Dr. Gian Corrado, a physician in Boston Children’s Hospital Sports Medicine, was an undergraduate playing pick-up basketball when one of his teammates died suddenly on the court. Unfortunately, the young player’s death is not an isolated tragedy.
Every three days, a young athlete somewhere in the U.S. collapses and dies due to an undetected heart problem.
“It’s uncommon,” Corrado says, “but it’s not SO uncommon that it may not touch you. It happens, and we have no effective, efficient way to screen for it.”
The National College Athletic Association’s chief medical officer has suggested it may be ...

Monitoring Workload in Throwing-Dominant Sports: A Systematic Review
Conclusion
This systematic review highlighted a number of simple and effective workload-monitoring techniques implemented across a variety of throwing-dominant sports. The current literature placed an emphasis on the relationship between workload and injury. However, due to differences in chronological and training age, inconsistent injury definitions and time frames used for monitoring, injury thresholds remain unclear in throwing-dominant sports. Furthermore, although research has examined total workload, the intensity of workload is often neglected. Additional research on the reliability of self-reported workl...

Reducing knee injury risk in young athletes
Young athletes benefit from playing sports in a variety of ways — from better fitness and overall health to higher self-esteem and improved academic achievement. But with this participation comes the risk of injury.
While some injuries build up over time and cause pain that is often ignored, others may be random and unexpected. Dr. Dennis Kramer, orthopedic surgeon at Boston Children’s Hospital, explains what may put an athlete at risk for an overuse injury and how to minimize the risk of traumatic injuries, such as an ACL tear.
Sports specialization and overuse injuries
As sports specialization continues to rise in...

Sports Medicine Delivery Models: Legal Risks.
Authors: Rapp GC, Ingersoll CD
Abstract
Educational institutions sponsoring competitive athletics may use an athletics model, academic model, or medical model for delivery of sports medicine to student-athletes. Four types of legal risk are considered for these 3 models: litigation, contract, regulatory, and structural. The athletics model presents the greatest legal risk to institutions, whereas the medical model presents the least legal risk. Institutional administrators should consider these risks when selecting or maintaining a delivery model for sports medicine.

Development of a certification examination for orthopedic sports medicine fellows
Conclusion: There was a disparity between fellows’ performance in the operating room and their performance in the high-fidelity cadaveric setting, suggesting that technical performance in the operating room may not be the most appropriate measure for assessment of fellows’ competence.

The Impacts of Sports Schools on Holistic Athlete Development: A Mixed Methods Systematic Review
ConclusionsThis study is the first to systematically review the research literature to understand the impacts associated with sports schools in terms of holistic athlete development. Practitioners should be aware that they can promote (positive) and negate (negative) health impacts through the design of an appropriate learning environment that simultaneously balances multiple training, academic, psychosocial and psychological factors that can be challenging for youth athletes. We recommend that practitioners aim to design and implement monitoring and evaluation tools that assess the holistic development of student-athletes...

Exercise based interventions for physically active individuals with functional ankle instability: a systematic literature review.
CONCLUSIONS: Exercise programs focused on coordination, balance and proprioception appear to improve functional performance for physically active individuals with functional instability and reduce subjective instability. Exercise training presents as an option to improve postural control, joint position sense or recurrent injury rates. Further study is suggested in order to determine optimal exercise programs for specific sports populations.

Factors Influencing Fellowship Decision Making During Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation Residency
This article describes a prospective survey in the 2019–2020 academic year in which 175 responses were collected representing 65 (78.3%) of the 83 physical medicine and rehabilitation programs with graduating residents. Nearly 3 in 4 (73.7%, 129/175) reported matching into a fellowship, and among those, 79.8% (103/129) had matched into a pain, spine, or sports medicine fellowship. At the start of residency, 62.3% (109/175) were planning to pursue a fellowship, with 54.9% (96/175) planning to focus on either pain, sports, or spine medicine. Most respondents (72.2%) did not change their initial subspecialty focus during th...

Epidemiology of Sports-Related Concussion in NCAA Athletes From 2009-2010 to 2013-2014: Incidence, Recurrence, and Mechanisms
Conclusion:
The estimated number of nationally reported SRCs has increased within specific sports. However, it is unknown whether these increases are attributable to increased reporting or frequency of concussions. Many sports report more SRCs in practice than in competition, although competition rates are higher. Men’s wrestling and men’s and women’s ice hockey have the highest reported concussion rates. Men’s football had the highest annual national estimate of reported SRCs, although the annual participation count was also the highest. Future research should continue to longitudinally examine SRC...

Knowledge of and attitudes to occupational and sports medicine among medical students in Zagreb, Croatia
Arh Hig Rada Toksikol. 2021 Jun 28;72(3):135-139. doi: 10.2478/aiht-2021-72-3535.ABSTRACTOccupational and sports medicine (OSM) education is poorly represented in Croatian university undergraduate medical curricula. Zagreb University medical students are required to take OSM classes for a week on their final year of studies. The classes are organised around team-based learning (TBL). Given that students who attend TBL classes have significantly higher exam scores than students who take lectures ex cathedra, the aim of this study was to assess students' knowledge and attitudes immediately after TBL OSM classes. This cross-s...
