Methods 1030 runners who were registered for the 2022 Boston Marathon completed an electronic survey (1–4 weeks pre-race) assessing LEA-I, training and medical history. De-identified survey data were linked to event wearable timing chips and medical encounter records. LEA-I was defined as: an elevated Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire score, elevated Low Energy Availability (LEA) in Females Questionnaire score, LEA in Males Questionnaire with a focus on gonadal dysfunction score and/or self-report of diagnosed eating disorder/disordered eating. Results The prevalence of LEA-I was 232/546 (42.5%) in females and 85/484 (17.6%) in males. Athletes without LEA-I (non-LEA-I) achieved significantly better race times versus those with LEA-I (accounting for demographic and anthropomorphic data, training history and marathon experience), along with better division finishing place (DFP) mean outcomes (women’s DFP: 948.9±57.6 versus 1377.4±82.9, p<0.001; men’s DFP: 794.6±41.0 versus 1262.4±103.3, p<0.001). Compared with non-LEA-I athletes, LEA-I athletes had 1.99-fold (95% CI: 1.15 to 3.43) increased relative risk (RR) of an intra-event medical encounter of any severity level, and a 2.86-fold increased RR (95% CI:1.31 to 6.24) of a major medical encounter. Conclusion This is the largest study to link LEA-I to intra-event athletic performance and medical encounters. LEA-I were associated with worse race performance and increased risk of intra-event medical encounters, supporting the negative performance and medical risks associated with problematic LEA-I in marathon athletes.

This study applied a gendered environmental approach to identify modifiable features of women’s sport environments that may contribute to the gendered patterning of sports injuries. Our objectives were to identify features of gendered environments that mattered in athletes’ lived experiences and to trace pathways connecting these features to injury. Methods We employed a creative methodology combining semi-structured interviews with artefact-elicited storytelling and poetic transcription to actively centre women athletes’ voices and communicate their experiences in formats intended to stimulate reflection among sport system stakeholders. Results Drawing on insights from 20 recently retired women athletes across 11 UK high-performance sports, our reflexive thematic analysis identified five gendered environmental challenges shaping women’s injury experiences, risk and outcomes: (1) stereotypes trivialise injury, (2) physiology is all or nothing, (3) the ‘ideal’ female athlete, (4) in/visible inequities and (5) uneven power dynamics. Within these gendered environmental challenges, we identified mechanisms through which challenges manifest in the everyday experiences of athletes, highlighting these as potential points to disrupt the gendered environments-to-injury pathway. Conclusion Our findings provide an evidence-based framework for categorising and addressing gendered environmental challenges in women’s sport. Interventions to reconfigure the gendered status quo within sport should be embedded as part of injury prevention strategies. No data are available. Due to ethical considerations, datasets from this project are not publicly available.","PeriodicalId":9276,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Sports Medicine","volume":"151 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142598084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, we have developed a snow sports-specific extension of the IOC statement to promote the harmonisation of injury and illness registration methods among athletes of all levels and categories in the different disciplines governed by the International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS), which is also applicable to other related snow sports such as biathlon, ski mountaineering, and to some extent, para snow sports. The panel was selected with the aim of representing as many different areas of expertise/backgrounds, perspectives and diversity as possible, and all members were assigned to thematic subgroups based on their profiles. After panel formation, all members were provided with an initial draft of this extension, which was used as a basis for discussion of aspects specific to the discipline, application context, level and sex within their snow sports subgroup topic. The outcomes were then aligned with the IOC’s existing consensus recommendations and incorporated into a preliminary manuscript draft. The final version of this snow sports-specific extension was developed and approved in two iterative rounds of manuscript revisions by all consensus panel members and a final meeting to clarify open discussion points. This snow sports-specific extension of the IOC statement is intended to guide researchers, international and national sports governing bodies, and other entities recording and reporting epidemiological data in snow sports to help standardise data from different sources for comparison and future research.","PeriodicalId":9276,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Sports Medicine","volume":"70 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142597128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
