There is a lack of studies on non-linear heart rate (HR) variability in athletes. We aimed to assess the usefulness of short-term HR dynamics and asymmetry parameters to evaluate the neural modulation of cardiac activity based on non-stationary RR interval series by studying their changes during sympathetic nervous system activity stimulation (isometric handgrip test) and post-stimulation recovery in professional ski mountaineers. The correlation between the changes in the parameters and the respiratory rate (RespRate) and also the duration of the career was analyzed...

REVIEW
Giulia Tossici, Valentino Zurloni, Andrea Nitri
Stress control is essential for avoiding a state of anxiety in sport competitions, as this state may have negative effects on other psychological variables of athletes, decreasing their self-confidence and harming their attentional control. In the present contribution a distress intervention model developed from a PNEI perspective will be sketched out. Our theoretical-methodological proposal consists of the definition of an integrated protocol of psycho-biological assessment and intervention on the allostatic load and on the levels of distress/eustress detectable in the sport environment, in relation to the person's health/well-being condition and the impact of this condition on the quality of sport performance...

PURPOSE: Trochleoplasty has become increasingly utilised to address patellar instability in the setting of severe trochlear dysplasia. There remains a paucity of literature on the outcomes of 'thick'- versus 'thin'-osteochondral flap trochleoplasty. The purpose of this study is to compare clinical and radiographic outcomes between patients with patellar instability with symptomatic trochlear dysplasia treated using a 'thick' versus 'thin' osteochondral flap trochleoplasty.

BACKGROUND: Calcific insertional Achilles tendinopathy(CIAT) with Haglund deformity is a type of recalcitrant tendinopathy. The necessity of concomitant removal of Haglund deformity during CIAT treatment is controversial. The present study aimed to evaluate the functional outcomes between Haglund resection and Haglund non-resection in the treatment of CIAT with Haglund deformity.

BACKGROUND: Sports medicine (injury and illnesses) requires distinct coding systems because the International Classification of Diseases is insufficient for sports medicine coding. The Orchard Sports Injury and Illness Classification System (OSIICS) is one of two sports medicine coding systems recommended by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). Regular updates of coding systems are required. METHODS: For Version 15, updates for mental health conditions in athletes, sports cardiology, concussion sub-types, infectious diseases, and skin and eye conditions were considered particularly important...

BACKGROUND: Recent studies show a high prevalence of triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) tears in asymptomatic wrists. While a TFCC tear may be identified when evaluating ulnar sided wrist pain, this could be incidental and not the true cause of pain. The purpose of this review was to (1) examine the frequency of which TFCC tears are diagnosed on MRI in asymptomatic versus symptomatic wrists and (2) determine whether rates of asymptomatic TFCC tears are higher in two important subgroups commonly at risk for this pathology: elderly patients and high-impact athletes...

JOURNAL ARTICLE

The release of microfibres from fabrics during laundering represents an important source of plastic and natural microfibres to aquatic environments. Garment age - how long the garment has been used - could be a key factor influencing the rate of release, yet most studies of microfibre shedding have only assessed newly manufactured products. To this end, we quantified microfibre release during laundering in domestic washing machines from polyester (PES) and cotton garments (n = 38) used in real-life conditions for periods between 1 and 31 years with different use intensities...

Visuospatial cognition encapsulates an individual's ability to efficiently navigate and make sense of the multimodal cues from their surroundings, and therefore has been linked to expert performance across multiple domains, including sports, performing arts, and highly skilled tasks, such as drawing (Morrone and Minini, 2023). As neural efficiency posits a task-specific functional reorganization facilitated by long-term training, the present study employs a visuospatial construction task as a means of investigating the neurophysiological adaptations associated with expert visuospatial cognitive performance...

The differences in pacing demands between track distance-running championship and meet (e.g., World Record [WR]) races have not been specified yet in the current literature. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine pacing behaviour differences between WRs and global championship (i.e., World Championships and Olympic Games) medal performances (GCMs) in middle- and long-distance running events. Percentages of mean race section speeds were compared through analysis of variance between men's and women's 169 WRs and 189 GCMs over 800 m, 1500 m, 3000 m steeplechase, 5000 m and 10,000 m...

The perceived value of athlete monitoring systems (AMS) has recently been questioned. Poor perceptions of AMS are important, because where practitioners lack confidence in monitoring their ability to influence programming, and performance is likely diminished. To address this, researchers have primarily sought to improve factors related to monitoring metrics, e.g., validity rather than socio-environmental factors, e.g., buy-in. Seventy-five practitioners (response rate: n  = 30) working with Olympic and Paralympic athletes were invited to take part in a survey about their perceptions of AMS value...

The clavicle has various anatomic shapes unique to each individual. Additionally, with the increase in high-energy traumas such as sports injuries and traffic accidents, the patterns of fractures become complex and complicated. Thus, there is a need for a variety of shapes of locking compression plates (LCP) to accommodate different types of fractures and facilitate quicker rehabilitation. The aim of this study is to present different types of LCP that secure fracture fragments and distribute stress evenly, in comparison to typical anatomical LCPs, for reinforcing clavicle fractures...

EDITORIAL

Cartilage restoration techniques continue to grow in complexity, expanding from traditional marrow-stimulation or isolated chondroplasty of chondral lesions to various grafting procedures. Microfracture can induce a less favorable biologic response that includes formation of type I fibrocartilage and development of subchondral cystic changes or sclerosis. Thus, chondral graft options that restore native type II hyaline cartilage are favored. Autologous osteochondral transfer (AOT) is a favorable graft option because it provides native type II hyaline cartilage on an autologous subchondral scaffold that most-closely emulates the native chondral environment, and clinical studies demonstrate better functional outcomes and RTS compared to other cartilage grafting and bone-marrow stimulation procedures...
