Femoroacetabular impingement surgery: are we moving too fast and too far beyond the evidence?
Abstract Femoroacetabuler impingement (FAI) is becoming increasingly recognised as a potential pathological entity for individuals with hip pain. Surgery described to correct FAI has risen exponentially in the past 10 years with the use of hip arthroscopy. Unfortunately, the strength of evidence supporting both the examination and treatment of FAI does not appear to accommodate this exponential growth. In fact, the direction currently taken for FAI is similar to previously described paths of other orthopaedic and sports medicine pathologies (eg, shoulder impingement, knee meniscus tear) for which we have learned v...

Olympian D ’Agostino shares 3 lessons after ACL injury
“The crux of Olympic competition is to do everything you can to be the first one to cross the finish line,” says Abbey D’Agostino. But that’s not what Abbey did during the 5,000-meter qualifying heats in the 2016 summer games. Abbey had trained for her Olympic moment for years, adhering to the rigid 24/7 lifestyle of an elite athlete since graduating from Dartmouth College and signing to run professionally with New Balance. Abbey’s Olympic moment came unexpectedly when she and New Zealand runner Nikki Hamblin collided and tumbled to the ground. What happened at the Olympics is an example we should be talking ...

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...

Julia Marino ’s Olympic story: Achieving after injury
Julia Marino is always thinking about her story, and it would be hard not too, given how much of an adventure her life has been so far. “Being adopted out of Paraguay to have a normal life in America would’ve been enough of a story itself,” she says. “But I’ve had the chance to live a life beyond what anybody could even dream of.” As an Olympic skier, Julia has been competing at the top of her sport for almost a decade. In 2014, she reached the pinnacle of snow sports at the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. But how she got there – and where she plans on going now – was heavily influenced by a devastating k...

Monitoring physical and motor traits in Primary school: a local harmful situation for older children.
CONCLUSIONS: The small-to-moderate correlations between parameters suggest that there are similarities in the developmental trajectories, but also that it should be assessed a wide range of motor skills and anthropometric indexes. In conclusion, we support the assessment of gender-and-context-related developmental trajectories in the school setting, by the mean of fitness measures, anthropometric indexes, and FMS, to be compared with local and general references, as evidence-based planning of PE interventions.

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...

Jenna ’s story: How two surgeons changed her path in life
“Your daughter was a very sick little girl.” Those were the first words that came out of Dr. Peter Waters’ mouth as he addressed my parents in the waiting room of Boston Children’s Hospital, back in 1999. They had been anxiously waiting, wondering and worrying about my condition. “Will they get it all?” “Will she be the same?” “Will she survive?” All of these questions occupied the minds of my parents as they sat waiting for their two-year-old daughter to come out of emergency surgery. A life-saving procedure …it’s what now inspires me to want to become a doctor myself” Dr. Waters, the Or...

Common Procedures —Common Problems: It’s Complicated
Several years ago, I put together an Instructional Course Lecture (ICL) entitled “Common Sports Medicine Procedures: Hero and Goat.” The idea was that the faculty would present their best and worst cases for each commonly performed sports medicine procedure. The course was a success, but the ICL organizers wanted more on complications. I struggled with this at first because no one wants to broadcast their failures. Nevertheless, I ultimately recognized that if others could learn from my mistakes, then they wouldn’t have to learn the same lesson the hard way.

Safety tips for ice skaters—the experienced and not-so experienced
As the world gears up for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, many of the world’s top athletes are training hard for what could be the most important competition of their lives.

Keeping twin dancers on their toes
Eighteen-year-old twins Sasha and Lise Ramsay are like two peas in a pod. They started dancing at 3, fell in love with ballet by age 6 and will both enter the ballet program at Brigham Young University in the fall. The girls are also mirror-image twins, which means some features, like cowlicks in the hair, are opposite each other. When Sasha was diagnosed with os trigonum syndrome, a tiny extra bone behind her right heel, at 15, the family expected Lise to follow in her footsteps. And she did. True to mirror-image form, Lise’s os trigonum developed opposite her twin’s—in her left heel. The syndrome makes dancing diff...

Antidoping Science: Important Lessons From the Medical Sciences.
Abstract The ineffectiveness of antidoping programs in elite sport, largely due to human and political factors, is leading to a new resolve and greater transparency of antidoping authorities and those stakeholders interested in drug-free sport. The perception by the public, athletes, and the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) of antidoping science and current drug testing programs in elite sport varies widely from "ineffective" to "robust and reliable." Here, we discuss why a careful and considered reevaluation of the underlying premise of antidoping science is needed to bring this unique application of predictive/di...

SASMA: happy to be 'hip', wary of being too 'hip happy'
Lessons from Monaco, the IOC and BMJ The slang term ‘to be hip’, meaning fashionably current and in the know, probably has its origins in African-American Vernacular English and became popularly used in the African-American dominated jazz scene of the 1930s and 1940s.1 This year's Fourth International Conference on Injury Prevention hosted by the IOC in Monaco was the place for ‘hip’ sport and exercise clinicians to be seen. Fireworks over the harbour, a reception at the palace and an opening address by the Prince may have left many star struck, but it was the networking with the ‘who's who&rs...

Sport and exercise medicine: crossing borders
Throughout history, we—the Dutch—have been a travelling and trading community. We crossed many borders and discovered new countries, cultures and exotic goods. Let us make it clear, we detest the cruelty our ancestors have brought to many corners of the world. However, it also forced us to incorporate other cultures and worldviews into our way of life. This has brought our country cultural richness and taught us that, being a small country, working together inside and across our local borders is the way forward. A similar lesson may apply to our field of sports and exercise medicine (SEM), a very broad field of...
