Previous studies have focused on wheelchair configuration and propulsion biomechanics for optimal performance in wheelchair sports. Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine influential factor(s) affecting the speed of collegiate wheelchair basketball players. Methods Eleven women (W: 22.3±4.8 yrs) and 13 men (M: 24.3±5.9 yrs) of University of Texas at Arlington's (UTA's) Wheelchair Basketball teams participated in this study. Participants were grouped based on gender and player classification (1.0-2.5 and 3.0-4.5). Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans assessed body fat percentage (BFP). Bilateral handgrip (kg) and 1-repetition maximum bench press tested muscle strength (lb). The first 15 ft of a 20 m sprint were video-recorded and analyzed to obtain values of trunk and elbow flexion (°) and contact and recovery time (sec). Results Lower classified (1.0-2.5) men and women had correlations between initial trunk and elbow flexion (M: r=0.73; W: r=0.84) and 15 ft time and initial elbow flexion (M: r=0.75; W: r=0.71). Low classified (1.0-2.5) men had negative correlations in the handgrips and both 15 ft and 20 m times (R hand 15 ft time: r=-0.89; R hand 20 m time: r=-0.75; L hand 15 ft time: r=-0.81; L hand 20 m time: r=-0.93). Body fat percentage influenced both 15 ft and 20 m times for high classified (3.0-4.5) men (15 ft: r=-0.74; 20 m=-0.78) and the 15 ft times for lower classified (1.0-2.5) women (r=0.88). Conclusion Initial elbow flexion and handgrip were important for lower classified (1.0-2.5) men. Low classified (1.0-2.5) women had faster 15 ft times with larger degrees of elbow flexion. Body fat percentage affected higher classified (3.0-4.5) male players. Additional factors may be identified in future research.","PeriodicalId":91862,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes research (Fairfax, Va.)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45261414","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}

This is critical information when considering that as much as 20% of student athletes sustained injuries during interscholastic sports events with just short of 50% of those injured requiring surgery and the consequent prescription of opioid pain relievers.2 Even more, it supports the notion of athletes who typically pride themselves in pursuing proper training and leading healthy lifestyles ultimately using heroin and other opioid drugs only to “find themselves mired in a life of street drugs and crime.\"","PeriodicalId":91862,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes research (Fairfax, Va.)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49587743","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}

Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of CGs on physiological, performance, and perceptual measures while running on uneven terrain at higher altitude. Methods Nine recreationally active males participated in two trail running sessions (7 km: uphill section 3.5 km, and downhill section 3.5 km). In the first session, participants completed the 7 km trail while wearing regular athletic clothing. Seven days later, participants then completed the same 7 km trail wearing CGs. Physiological and performance measures were collected at the baseline, during the trail run, immediate post-run, and 24, 48, 72 hours after the trail run. Results Results showed no significant differences in time to completion (p=≥0.05). However, there were significant differences in physiological load (p=0.04), training load (p=0.01), average physiological intensity (p=0.05), and estimated caloric expenditure (p=0.02) between trials. Significant improvement in vertical jump height and peak anaerobic power in watts (p=0.04), isometric strength (p=0.03), and post-exercise pain ratings at 48 (p=0.01) and 72 (p=0.038) hours post exercise were found under the CG condition. Conclusion Although there were no differences in time to complete the runs in both conditions (with and without CGs), the significant differences in the physiological measures suggests that the CGs may have an ergogenic effect when participating in trail running activities at a higher altitude. Therefore, wearing CGs may increase exercise efficiency and capacity, leading to a possible increase in recovery from training and activity.","PeriodicalId":91862,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes research (Fairfax, Va.)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47124997","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}

Though, the Quebec Task Force on whiplash associated disorder (WAD) has provided clinical practice guidelines, due to low-level evidence available, the third aspect of evidence-based practice, namely, clinical expertise continues primarily to guide management of this diagnosis. Purpose: This case analysis applies current evidence regarding the use of core stability training in WAD while also incorporating the World Health Organization’s International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) Model in an elite athlete case. Methods: Case study generated regarding an elite athlete who sustained whiplash/cervical strain injury status post motor vehicle accident. The patient care model was utilized to detail the application of evidence based practice. Discussion: Discussion points to apply current evidence are integrated within each aspect of the patient care model, namely, Evaluation, Assessment, Diagnosis, Prognosis and Intervention. Conclusions: Though low-level evidence has been available to support clinical management guidelines for management of whiplash, clinicians can refer to these guidelines while applying available evidence and clinical expertise for effective patient recovery.","PeriodicalId":91862,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes research (Fairfax, Va.)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47254206","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 purpose of the study was to examine the physiological external workload, of amateur female footballers, across varying heart rate intensities, as well as, interpret fatigue between each half of the Soccer-Specific Aerobic Field Test (SAFT90) protocol. Methods: A sample of n = 24 amateur female football players (mean ± SD; age: 20.7 ± 4.0 years; stretched stature = 165.6 ± 5.8cm, body mass = 58.1 ± 4.7 kg) were recruited during the 2016/2017 competitive season. Maximum heart rate (HRmax) values were determined using the Yo-Yo intermittent recovery level 1 (Yo-Yo IR Level 1) with the SAFT90 protocol used to interpret the physiological and mechanical demands displayed during football match. A one-way analysis of variance was applied to determine the differences between each position (defenders, midfielders and forwards) with the level of significance set at alpha level P < 0.05. Results: There were statistically significant differences between each position and total external workload (F (df:23) = 9.156; (P < 0.05), in addition to average heart rate (HR) across 90 - minutes (F (df:23) = 22.317; (P < 0.05). Statistical significance was also determined differences between each position and the duration of time spent within the prescribed HR intensity zones, including zone 1 (<70% HRmax), zone 2 (70-85% HRmax) and zone 4 (90-95% HRmax) across the SAFT90. The total distance all players completed across the 90 minutes was 10913.7 ± 1076.7 m, whereas the shortest external workload (10020.4 ± 1086.6 m) was completed by defenders and largest (11781.9 ± 324.7 m) by midfielders. The player’s average heart rate was 161.1 ±14.7 bpm-1 resulting in a mean intensity of representing 81% HRmax. Conclusions: Midfielders spent the largest proportion of time between zone 2 and zone 4. Based on these results, coaches are able to determine which type of physiological profile is needed for a specific positon and use this information to design specifically prescribed training programmes to maximise the fitness development.","PeriodicalId":91862,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes research (Fairfax, Va.)","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41334970","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}
