Computerized Cognitive Testing in the Management of Youth Sports-Related Concussion
Computerized neurocognitive testing has become a growing practice across medical populations, but particularly within sports medicine and the management of sports-related concussion. Although traditional neuropsychological measures are solely administered and interpreted by neuropsychologists, computerized cognitive tests are marketed to and utilized by a wide range of professionals involved in the management of sports-related concussions, many of whom lack specialized psychometric training. Although the benefits of computerized testing allow for many youth athletes to be evaluated quickly, professionals implementing their...

Managing acute hamstring injuries in athletes
What did I do? I investigated (1) the efficacy of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections in acute hamstring injuries in athletes and (2) determined the role of MRI in the management of acute hamstring injuries. Why did I do it? Acute hamstring injuries are one of the most common sports injuries. Despite this, there was remarkably little evidence from high-quality clinical studies regarding the management of these injuries. Treatment of hamstring injury using PRP In sports and exercise medicine, there is growing attention on interventions that provide endogenous growth factors directly to the injury site. These growth factor...

The Discriminant Validity of Standardised Testing Battery and Its Ability to Differentiate Anthropometric and Physical Characteristics Between Youth, Academy and Senior Professional Rugby League Players.
CONCLUSIONS:: The standardised testing battery differentiates anthropometric and physical qualities of youth, academy and senior players as a group and, in most instances, within positional groups. Furthermore, the battery is able to discriminate between playing standards with good accuracy and might be included in future assessments and rugby league talent identification.

Effect of 10 Weeks of Complex Training on Speed and Power in Academy Soccer Players.
CONCLUSIONS: The CPT experienced a small but significant within-group improvement in jump performance. However, no significant between-groups differences were observed in any of the testing variables postintervention. Subsequently, for academy soccer athletes, the CPT approach did not produce meaningful benefits to performance compared with a more time-efficient reverse-contrast approach.

Pelvic tilt: reliability of measuring the standing position and range of motion in adolescent athletes
Conclusions The present method for assessing neutral and anterior standing pelvic tilt measurements has a good reliability level and may integrate longitudinal screening and clinical examination routines in young athletes. However, posterior pelvic tilt measurements should be cautiously interpreted due to lower measurements' reliability.

Regenerative Sports Medicine: Past, Present, and Future  (Adapted From the PASSOR Legacy Award Presentation; AAPMR; October 2016)
In 2008, the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (AAPMR) fully integrated the Physiatric Association of Spine, Sports, and Occupational Rehabilitation (PASSOR) and established the PASSOR legacy award. AAPMR now takes the lead in education for its membership in musculoskeletal ultrasound and regenerative medicine. During the past decade, there has been an unprecedented increase in educational offerings, hands-on training, workshops, standalone courses, and most recently a 1-year ultrasound training curriculum and certificate that is available through the AAPMR.

Functional performance deficits associated with ligamentous instability at the ankle
Abstract: Objectives: To examine whether ankle anterior drawer ligament laxity is associated with deficits in performance testing among otherwise healthy sportspeople.Design: Cross-sectional cohort study.Methods: Eighty-six volunteers from among sports participants at a military academy consented to the use of their pre-participation musculoskeletal screening information for the lower limb, and to an additional test of ankle proprioception. The lower limb screening included tests of ankle ligament laxity, dorsiflexion range of movement, single leg hop-for-distance, hexagon agility hopping test, and hop-and-hold landing sta...

Normative Values for the KOOS and WOMAC in a Young Athletic Population: History of Knee Ligament Injury Is Associated With Lower Scores
Conclusion: Normative values for all KOOS scales suggest a high level of functioning among participants with no history of knee ligament injury. Despite meeting the medical standards for military service, participants with a history of knee ligament injury had significantly lower KOOS and WOMAC scores upon entry to military service.

Prevention of Orofacial Injury via the Use of Mouthguards among Young Male Rugby Players
Int J Sports MedDOI: 10.1055/s-0034-1390498The purpose of this study was to examine factors hindering the use of mouthguards and the incidence of orofacial injury among young male rugby players. 69 high school rugby players (Group 1) and 431 medical student rugby players (Group 2) participated in this study. Participants in Group 1 used custom-made mouthguards fabricated according to a standardized method, whereas participants in Group 2 used custom-made or over-the-counter mouthguards of their choice. The factors associated with orofacial injury were assessed by logistic regression analysis, while factors hindering mouthg...
