Identifying Sex-Specific Risk Factors for Low Bone Mineral Density in Adolescent Runners
Conclusion: This study identified sex-specific risk factors for impaired bone mass in adolescent runners. These risk factors can be helpful to guide sports medicine professionals in evaluation and management of young runners at risk for impaired bone health.

Hypertensive Medications in Competitive Athletes.
Abstract Hypertension is the most common cardiovascular disease in athletes. It is an important cause of long-term morbidity and mortality, even in a fit, athletic population. Management options to reduce these long-term risks exist that have minimal impact on athletic performance. Identification and management of underlying lifestyle factors and diseases that may lead to secondary hypertension is critical. These include substance abuse, medications, and underlying medical conditions. After evaluation and management of these issues, medications can be used to reduce blood pressure. In the athletic population, firs...

Subclinical coronary artery disease in veteran athletes: is a new preparticipation methodology required?
CONCLUSIONS: Conventional methodology used in preparticipation evaluation of veteran athletes, based on clinical CV risk factors and exercise testing, was poor at identifying significant subclinical CAD. The inclusion of more objective markers, particularly data derived from cardiac CT, is promising for more accurate CV risk stratification of these athletes.

Concussions in Ice Hockey - Moving Toward Objective Diagnoses and Point-of-care Treatment: A Review.
Abstract The incidence of sport-related concussion coupled with a doubling of the participation rate in youth hockey over the past two decades provides impetus for the review of the most promising concussion treatment options. This narrative review summarizes the future treatment options for sport-related concussions in ice hockey, while acknowledging their generalizability to concussion in all sports. Symptom assessment, sign observation, as well as cognitive and balance testing, have historically been used to diagnose a concussion. These methods continue to improve, but the need for effective treatments is clear...

An aggressive weight and fat loss nutritional strategy in a male artistic gymnast: a case study.
Abstract A case study describing the nutritional interventions with an elite artistic male gymnast, whose performance was being inhibited by repeated injury. We aimed to obtain a rapid reduction in body fat (BF) and body mass (BM), to reduce the load through the knee, ankle joints, and connective tissues. Training and nutritional strategies were adjusted to maximise BF and BM loss, whilst maintaining lean mass (LM). A prescriptive nutritional programme was designed which varied each day, to account for changes in daily training sessions. Protein was maintained at 2 g/kg BM, split in to regular 15 g snacks or 25-30...

Magnesium and the Athlete.
This article will cover the general roles of magnesium, magnesium requirements, and assessment of magnesium status as well as the dietary intake of magnesium and its effects on exercise performance. The research articles cited were limited from those published in 2003 through 2014. PMID: 26166051 [PubMed - in process]

Effects of a calcium supplement on bone mineral density in male cyclists.
CONCLUSION: Negative effects of competitive cycling on aBMD in hip structures can be observed within 5 months. Calcium and vitamin D3 ingested prior to cycling does not ameliorate this effect. This proof of concept paper provides evidence that more work is needed to find mechanisms to protect cyclists from destructive bone loss in hip structures. PMID: 26470637 [PubMed - in process]

Vitamin D and Athletic Performance: The Potential Role of Muscle
: Vitamin D deficiency is a worldwide epidemic, with well known impacts on calcium metabolism and bone health, but increasingly recognized associations with chronic health problems such as bowel and colonic cancer, arthritis, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. In recent years in the Sports Medicine literature, there has been an increased focus on the potential impact that inadequate Vitamin D levels may have on athletic performance.,: In the early 20th Century, athletes and coaches felt that ultraviolet rays had a positive impact on athletic performance, and while remaining limited, evidence is accumulating to support th...

Calcifying tendinitis of the long head of the biceps brachii and superior labrum: a report of one case and literature review.
CONCLUSIONS: Calcifying tendinitis involving the long head of the biceps brachii and superior labrum is rare and the diagnosis need to rule out fractures. The surgical treatment of arthroscopy is effective and relieves the symptoms quickly, but may not be the first choice. PMID: 28229565 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Special Communication of a Case of Hypovolemic-Associated EAH: Lessons Learned During Recovery.
We present a case of EAH with encephalopathy involving an experienced male cyclist with no recollection of the event. We thereby conducted a retrospective analysis of biochemical trajectories during hospital recovery. The normalization of serum [Na], in context with changes in other variables, offered a 'reverse' perspective of the underlying pathophysiology. The following biochemical changes were temporally observed, with the return of normonatremia: 1) a decrease in serum potassium and calcium concentrations (absence of extracellular fluid dilution); 2) a decrease in total protein, blood urea nitrogen, hematocrit and hem...

Optimal Running Dose and Cardiovascular Risk.
Abstract The cardiovascular benefits of regular exercise are well established. A mortality benefit has clearly been demonstrated for those that participate in light and moderate exercise. Less is known regarding the long-term effects of vigorous regular running over an extended period. In recent years, myocardial fibrosis, arrhythmias, and coronary artery calcium have been demonstrated in high-intensity exercisers. However, the prognostic implication of these findings remains unknown, and thus, there is insufficient evidence, and potentially not a need, to recommend a maximal running dose or limit for healthy indi...

Oestrogen replacement improves bone mineral density in oligo-amenorrhoeic athletes: a randomised clinical trial.
CONCLUSION: Transdermal estradiol over 12 months improves BMD in young OAA, particularly compared with an ethinyl estradiol-containing contraceptive pill/oral contraceptives. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT00946192; Pre-results. PMID: 30301734 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Prevalence of vitamin D deficiency amongst soccer athletes and effects of 8 weeks supplementation.
CONCLUSIONS: Professional athletes have a high prevalence of vitamin D. Supplementation with cholecalciferol in winter months during 8 weeks is safe and effective in raising 25(OH)D serum levels. However, it may not be sufficient for athletes to reach adequate vitamin D levels. PMID: 30411595 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

How does exercise treatment compare with antihypertensive medications? A network meta-analysis of 391 randomised controlled trials assessing exercise and medication effects on systolic blood pressure.
CONCLUSIONS: The effect of exercise interventions on SBP remains under-studied, especially among hypertensive populations. Our findings confirm modest but consistent reductions in SBP in many studied exercise interventions across all populations but individuals receiving medications generally achieved greater reductions than those following structured exercise regimens. Assuming equally reliable estimates, the SBP-lowering effect of exercise among hypertensive populations appears similar to that of commonly used antihypertensive medications. Generalisability of these findings to real-world clinical settings should be furth...
