This balance, known as muscle balance, ensures optimal joint function during movement. Using a bibliography that can be linked to indexed literature, this article has as its strength the correlative analysis between gestural repetitiveness in soccer, related to players' roles on the field on the playing field that result in dysfunctional postural frameworks with increased risk factors for lower extremity injuries. Soccer, characterized by rapid changes of direction, accelerations, decelerations, twisting motions, and cutting maneuvers often performed with a dominant limb can contribute to the development of asymmetries, lateralization, and postural/dysfunctional patterns. These patterns could increase the risk of injury to the musculoskeletal system, particularly during the return-to-sport process after an injury. In contact/collision sports like soccer, asymmetrical imbalances within the lumbo-pelvic-hip complex have been linked to dysfunctional states that affect lower limb alignment. This can have clinical implications, manifesting as knee pain, low back pain, groin injuries, or adductor injuries. Additionally, rotational deficits at the hip have been identified as predictors of ACL and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) injuries. To address these issues, a screening process to identify muscle imbalances and assess movement quality should be integrated into both preseason and in-season training programs, with regular follow-ups. Compensatory training tailored to the specific roles players occupy on the field can be effective in reducing asymmetries and mitigating the risk factors associated with musculoskeletal disorders frequently seen in soccer.","PeriodicalId":17013,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144760437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is important for not only medical professionals but also athletes and sports enthusiasts to independently identify and manage the risk of muscle strain.Methods: This prospective observational study explores the effectiveness of measuring blood myoglobin (MB) levels as a method for detecting muscle strains among athletes. The study involved 30 male professional footballers monitored over one season. MB levels were measured the morning after players reported muscle pain. The analysis involved comparing these levels between two groups: one diagnosed with muscle strain through physical examination and magnetic resonance imaging (strain group), and the other with muscle soreness or cramps (non-strain group).Results: The strain group, consisting of nine players, showed significantly higher MB levels (124±87.7 ng/mL) compared to the non-strain group, which included 15 players (49.9±29.6 ng/mL, P<0.01). A cutoff value of 60.3 ng/mL was determined via receiver operating characteristic analysis for suspected muscle strain cases. Subsequent logistic regression revealed that MB levels exceeding this threshold were associated with a 32.0-fold increase in the likelihood of muscle strain (P=0.005).Conclusions: This finding suggests that blood myoglobin measurement can serve as a reliable tool for athletes to independently recognize the occurrence of muscle strains, even in settings without immediate medical oversight.","PeriodicalId":17013,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144760440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although injury prevention is a key priority, most epidemiological studies focus on short-term data from international tournaments or clubs outside Germany. This study aimed to examine the injury epidemiology in German elite men's football through a long-term analysis of a single club competing in both top national leagues.Methods: A professional German football team was prospectively observed over eight consecutive seasons, with four seasons played in the first division and four in the second. Injury incidence and associated time loss were analyzed using Poisson regression.Results: A total of 357 match injuries and 625 training injuries were recorded. Injury incidence did not significantly differ between the first and second division, either for match play (79.0 vs. 80.8 injuries per 1000 match hours, P=0.83) or training (8.7 vs. 9.2 injuries per 1000 training hours, P=0.49). However, average time loss was significantly greater in the first division for both training injuries (70 vs. 49 days per 1000 training hours, P<0.01) and match injuries (653 vs. 596 days per 1000 match hours, P=0.017).Conclusions: Although injury incidence was comparable between the two top German divisions, injuries sustained in the first division led to significantly greater time loss.

Prevalence of suicidal thoughts in the general adult population is approximately 4%, with lifetime prevalence of 5.6%, and suicidal attempts of 2.7%. No data are available on endurance runners (ER) and ultra-endurance runners (UER).Methods: Prospective cohort study of ER (distance of ≥21.1 km-42.2 km) and UER (≥42.2 km), collecting self-reported data on biometrics, social, psychological, medical, and training history. Suicidal risk was assessed via the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and open questions.

In trained individuals, the AIx response to peak exercise (exercise delta AIx75 [Ex-AIx75]) may better help identify the effect of age and sex on arterial stiffening compared with conventional resting measures. This study aimed to determine the effect, and contribution of age, sex, peak oxygen (O<inf>2</inf>) uptake (V̇O<inf>2peak</inf>), mean weekly training load and lifetime training on resting AIx75, and Ex-AIx75 of healthy aerobic trained adults.Methods: One hundred healthy aerobic trained adults (49 women, 51 men, being 48 younger [18-30 years], 52 older [40-60 years]) underwent non-invasive measurements of AIx75 at rest and post peak cycling exercise.Results: Resting AIx75, and Ex-AIx75 were significantly higher (P<0.001) in the older group compared to the younger group.

This study assesses how lifelong changes in PA impact body mass index (BMI) and body composition using data from NHANES (1999-2006) for adults aged 29 to 59 years.Methods: Data were extracted from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1999-2006), including male and female participants aged 29-59. The cross-sectional analysis focused on the relationship between BMI and the fat mass index (FMI)/Lean Body Mass Index (LBMI) ratio, adjusted for height (ht). Multivariate linear regression models were adjusted for covariates and stratified by sex. All analyses were adjusted considering the sample weights.Results: The analysis comprised 5115 participants, with 51.7% male and an average age of 42.8±0.13 years. The FMI/ht-LBMI ratio is approximately 0.4 for men and 0.7 for women. The results indicated that women had a mean BMI increase (β=1.9, 95% CI: 1.4-2.4) for every 0.1 increase in the FMI/ht-LBMI ratio, while men had a mean BMI increase (β=1.0, 95% CI: 0.7-1.4) (P<0.05), compared to those maintaining the same PA pattern over ten years. Additionally, factors such as socioeconomic status, race/ethnicity, and nutritional status at age 25 were found to significantly impact body composition outcomes.Conclusions: In summary, long-term PA emerges as a modifier in population-level body composition. Individuals with a history of lower PA over the last decade showed a higher proportion of adipose tissue. In this way, the importance of maintaining substantial levels of PA throughout life is emphasized, contributing positively to body composition.","PeriodicalId":17013,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144575656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to assess the association between external load and tibial characteristics and compare the effect that asymmetrical loading has between legs in asymmetrical athletes. Footballers were recruited as a comparator group.Methods: Inertial measurement units (IMU) were placed at the 14% site of the anteromedial tibia to measure external load during habitual training. Whole body dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and tibial peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) scans were taken of the athlete within 2 weeks of the external load measurement.Results: Asymmetrical athletes experienced 34% higher peak acceleration and 28% higher peak positive acceleration (PPA) in the front leg compared to the back leg and showed greater bone mineral content (BMC; 2%) and torsional tibial strength (7%) in the front leg. Positive correlations were shown between cumulative load in the front leg and tibial strength (r=0.638; P=0.035) in asymmetrical athletes.Conclusions: Exposure to cumulative load showed higher tibial anteroposterior bone strength and transverse and torsional fracture resistance than the lesser loaded contralateral limb.
