Specifically, reactive postural control impairments have been well documented among individual’s with ASD, however, research suggests that interventions can improve these associated deficiencies. The Piece It Together (PIT) program is a community-based comprehensive program designed to provide wellness opportunities among teens and young adults with ASD and other mild Neurodevelopmental Deficits (ND). The PIT curriculum includes exercise, nutrition, stress management, and socialization with a focus on strength and endurance training geared towards improving everyday functioning through the increase of awareness and participation in daily healthy lifestyle behaviors. Twenty participants, aged 14-29, attended 90-minute classes at the MUSC Wellness Center twice a week for six weeks and were encouraged to increase their physical activity daily. The mini-Balance Evaluations Systems Test (miniBEST) was administered during the first and last class session to assess balance changes among all study participants over the 6-weeks. Results showed significantly improved balance scores at the end of the program, from 23.9 to 25.2 (p = 0.028). Overall, the 6-week PIT program successfully improved balance and coordination in teens and young adults with ASD or mild ND. *Corresponding author: Eve Spratt, MD, MSCR, Professor of Pediatrics and Psychiatry, Director, Pediatric Psychiatry, Division of Developmental Pediatrics, Co-Director Piece it Together and Brain Health, Physical Health, Telehealth, Medical University of South Carolina, USA, Tel: 843-876-0444 ISSN: 2469-5718 DOI: 10.23937/2469-5718/1510138 Spratt et al.

In other words, the inability to balance among those with ASD may subconsciously alter their initial readiness, empowerment, confidence, and therefore, their willingness to engage in exercise. If individuals with ASD are more likely to avoid behaviors that require them to balance, this may subconsciously drive them to show an increase in interest and participation for behaviors that are primarily sedentary and less physical in nature. This may explain the alarming rates of sedentary behavior, lack of physical activity, and increase in obesity and chronic disease risk that appear more evident among the ASD population. Preliminary research suggests that exercise interventions can not only be beneficial in improving motor issues, but also beneficial in improving social deficits and behavioral problems [29-31]. Additionally, interventions of physical therapists to improve these motor deficits is promising [32]. However, more research is necessary to determine the best protocol for intervention programs to address the aforementioned issues in the ASD population.

Methods: 30 elderly women were randomized into two groups: 1) Functional Training (FT – n = 15, 65.12 ± 4.49 years) and 2) and Traditional Training (TT n = 15, 64.87 ± 3.25 years). For the verification of functional responses, the following tests were applied: Dress and Undress a Sleeveless Shirt (DUSS), Gallon-Jug Shelf-Transfer (GJSF), Get up from the chair and move around the house (GCMA), Sit and Stand up in 5 Reps (SS5R) and 400 meters walk. Data were analyzed from a repeated measures ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s post-hoc. Results: After 12 weeks, both FT and TT showed significant increases in the power of lower limbs (SS5R: FT + 18.0%, TT + 21.7%) compared to the initial values. The FT showed statistically significant differences in agility/dynamic balance (GCMA: + 5.3%, p = 0.02) and cardiorespiratory capacity (400 W: + 10.4%; p = 0.007); and TT showed significant improvements in mobility and overall coordination (GJSF: + 8.1%, p = 0.001) when compared to the pre-test.

Numerous studies investigated such effects also in cancer patients. As most studies were conducted on adults, much less is known in children and adolescents. Moreover, most studies were conducted under laboratory conditions in order to control the duration and intensity of the activity. However, daily life also includes outdoor activities. The aim of the present study was to investigate immunological parameters in a pediatric cancer survivor (8 years) suffering Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) who underwent bone marrow transplantation. The values were compared to those of a healthy control group (CG; N = 10). Blood samples were taken at the first (pre-test) and at the last day (post-test) of a winter sports camp by using a portable flow cytometry BD Accuri C6 device. No significant changes were observed between the preand post-test in the CG. The patient showed an increase in the total lymphocyte population, and in the CD3+ and CD4+ cells, all of them being within the range of variation of the CG. NK-cells increased slightly in the patient, however, both values were below the range of variation of the CG. B-Lymphocytes decreased from a value above the range of variation of the CG to a level close to their median value. Although the intensity of the skiing activities was difficult to assess, the patient showed changes in immunological parameters which might be interpreted as an improvement of the immune system in the course of a one-week skiing intervention.","PeriodicalId":91298,"journal":{"name":"International journal of sports and exercise medicine","volume":"116 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87879752","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to explore the impact of the University College London Hospital (UCLH) 6-week workbased pedometer challenge on physical activity levels, perceived health status and exercise self-efficacy. Secondary aims include investigating changes in weight, BMI and waist circumference. Methods: This study used a longitudinal pre-post intervention study design. 247 participants of the UCLH 2013 pedometer challenge from 580 who registered, filled out the online questionnaire, of these only 103 completed filling out the post pedometer questionnaire two months after the end of the challenge. Pre-and post-data were analyzed with paired t-tests. Results: Results showed that although there was an increase in reported physical activity after the pedometer challenge, this difference was not significant. Subjective data however showed that 40% of participants reported a change in physical activity after the pedometer challenge. There were significant differences in only perceived health status and waist circumference. No significant differences were identified in exercise self-efficacy, weight or BMI. Conclusion: Workbased pedometer challenges such as the 6-weeks UCLH pedometer challenge may be of insufficient duration to produce a change in physical activty, and exercise self-efficacy 2 months after the pedometer challenge is over. However a change in waist circumfernce suggests that some weight loss occurred and was maintained 2 months after the pedometer interventions.","PeriodicalId":91298,"journal":{"name":"International journal of sports and exercise medicine","volume":"15 2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91328636","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Deciding between nonoperative versus surgical management depends on the grade of displacement, skeletal maturity, type of sport/activity, and competitive/ career requirements. Methods: We present a young athlete who sustained an ASIS avulsion fracture while playing baseball that was treated with open surgical reduction and fixation using absorbable sutures with an emphasis on mobilizing the TFL to reapproximate the avulsed segment without tension. Results: The patient was started on a progressive physical therapy protocol that did not involve any weight-bearing or range of motion restrictions. He was jogging in the third postoperative week and returned to full-play in the 6th week. As of 12 months postop, there were no complications and he is playing at his pre-injury level of performance without pain. Conclusion: Operative treatment of avulsion fracture of the ASIS without bone anchors or screws highlights the importance of soft tissue mobilization and reduction of tension. Additionally, the relatively rapid return to activities and lack of immobilization minimizes deconditioning, which might be an advantage over non-operative management. Athletes with ASIS avulsion fractures repaired with this technique can expect to return to play within 6 weeks.","PeriodicalId":91298,"journal":{"name":"International journal of sports and exercise medicine","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75185045","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
