Background and Study Aim. Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis are a crucial mechanism of adaptation to physical exercise, in particular in combat sports. This study assesses changes of the relevant hormonal profiles upon performance in selected combat sports. Material and Methods. Participants (130 men practicing combat sports at a high level) were divided by discipline: karate (K), taekwondo (T), and judo, wrestling, and sumo combined (JWS). Blood concentration of adrenaline, noradrenaline, cortisol, testosterone, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) was determined before and after fighting. Results. Following fighting, the adrenaline concentration was significantly higher in all athletes, most markedly in K ( p < 0.001 ). Baseline cortisol and BDNF levels did not differ among the groups and rose significantly in all the groups after the performance. Baseline testosterone concentration was slightly higher in K than in JSW and rose in all the groups to reach similar levels; the increase in T was significantly higher than in K. Conclusions. Despite substantial differences in the characteristics of the combat sports investigated, including the type of physical effort and the required balance between restraint and aggression, the performance in each of them gives rise to similar hormonal changes with a possible exception of karate showing higher stress hormone levels.

Full textAbstract:
Extreme sports are sport branches which include actions, adventures, risks and difficulties more rather than other sports. Special materials are used in sport branches such as surfing, kite surfing, sailing, snowboarding, paragliding, diving, mountaineering, motor sports and adrenaline release is more rather than in other sport branches. On the contrary, the situation for being eager to seek excitement and take risks with a view to having new experiences has been observed. It has been considered whether sensation seeking requirement and risk-taking behavior had effects upon each other. The aim of the study was to analyze sensation seeking and risk-taking behavior in extreme athletes. Total 101 extreme athletes including 31 females, 70 males with an age average of 22.03 ± 6.77 participated in the research. In order to determine athletes’ sensation seeking levels, “Arnett Inventory of Sensation Seeking” developed by Arnett (1994) and in order to determine their risk-taking behavior, “Risk Involvement and Perception Scale” developed by Siegel et al. (1994) were used. In evaluation of research data, frequency analysis, independent t test, in determination of relation between risk-taking and sensation seeking, correlation test were utilized.In conclusion, significant differences were found in risk-taking behavior, sensation seeking requirement and gender variable among the extreme athletes. In the male athletes sensation seeking requirement and risk-taking behavior had higher averages than the female athletes. Among the extreme athletes, significant relations were determined between risk-taking behavior and sensation seeking requirement. When risk-taking behavior values were high, sensation seeking requirement values were regarded to be high.

Full textAbstract:
Local infiltration anaesthesia with a bloodless operation field (WALANT) allows for performing hand surgery without a tourniquet. This effect is obtained through an injection of greater than standard volume of the anaesthetic solution composed of lignocaine and adrenaline. The addition of adrenaline induces spasm of small arteries within the infiltration area, which inhibits bleeding and allows visualization of most of the subtle but important structures in the hand and fingers. This article presents a method of preparation of the anaesthetic solution and the technique of anaesthesia for several common procedures in hand surgery. In 2019, our centre performed 340 operations under WALANT anaesthesia, with no serious complications observed. Data from the literature are presented showing that this technique is attracting increasing popularity worldwide. Our centre was the first in Poland to introduce the WALANT method to hand surgery.

Context: Night games are a regular occurrence for team-sport athletes, yet sleep complaints following night competitions are common. The mechanisms responsible for reported sleep difficulty in athletes are not understood. Methods: An observational crossover design investigating a night netball game and a time-matched rest day in 12 netball athletes was conducted to ascertain differences in physiological (core temperature), psychometric (state and trait), and neuroendocrine (adrenaline, noradrenaline, and cortisol) responses. Results: Following the night game, athletes experienced reduced sleep durations, lower sleep efficiency, early awakenings, and poorer subjective sleep ratings compared with the rest day. No differences were found between core temperature, state psychometric measures, and cortisol at bedtime. Adrenaline and noradrenaline concentrations were elevated compared with the time-matched rest day prior to (26.92 [15.88] vs 12.90 [5.71] and 232.6 [148.1] vs 97.83 [36.43] nmol/L, respectively) and following the night game (18.67 [13.26] vs 11.92 [4.56] and 234.1 [137.2] vs 88.58 [54.08] nmol/L, respectively); however, the concentrations did not correlate to the sleep variables (duration, efficiency, and sleep-onset latency). A correlation (rs = −.611) between sleep efficiency and hyperarousal (trait psychometric measure) was found. Conclusions: Athletes experienced poor sleep following a night game. Furthermore, results suggest that athletes who have a tendency toward a high trait arousal may be more susceptible to sleep complaints following a night game. These data expand knowledge and refute frequently hypothesized explanations for poor sleep following night competition. The results may also help support staff and coaches target strategies for individual athletes at a higher risk of sleep complaints.

Aim. The paper deals with the adrenergic reactivity of erythrocytes and its connection with quantitative and qualitative characteristics of cells in young women with different levels of motor activity depending on the rs4646994(I/D) polymorphic variant of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene. Materials and methods. Young female students took part in the study: the 1st group (n = 33) included young women with a relatively inactive lifestyle, the 2nd group (n = 18) included those regularly involved in sports activity (volleyball and lapta). Red blood cells were counted with the ADVIA 60 hematology analyzer (BAYER, Germany). The adrenergic reactivity of erythrocytes (ARE) was assessed by changes in erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) under the effect of adrenaline in vitro in final concentrations of 10–5; 10–6; 10–7; 10–8 (stress concentration – SCA) and 10–9; 10–11; 10–13 (physiological concentration – PCA) g/ml. The type of the adrenergic reactivity of erythrocytes was established depending on the direction of ESR changes in the presence of adrenaline – aggregative (Ag) with an ESR increase, anti-aggregative (AnAg) with a ESR decrease, and affectless (Af). The average and maximum values of changes were also taken into account. PCR analysis was performed on the rs4646994 polymorphic variant of the ACE gene. Results. A direct correlation was found between the I/D polymorphism of the ACE gene with average values of ARE when exposed to PCA (R = 0.52, P = 0.04), with the maximum ESR change under the effect of SCA (R = 0.52, P = 0.04), as well as with the direction of ESR changes induced by adrenaline (R = 0.55, P = 0.03). Thus, among individuals with the I/D genotype erythrocyte aggregation prevails, while female athletes with the D/D genotype are not characterized by the same type of ARE. Conclusion. Young female athletes, carriers of the D/D genotype of the АСЕ gene, are the most resistant to the effect of both PCA and SCA.

Trabalho de Projecto para obtenção de grau de Mestre em Comunicação Social – Vertente Comunicação EstratégicaAo longo dos anos, o lazer assumiu diferentes formas de importância na sociedade: se há algumas décadas atrás apenas alguns estratos sociais podiam usufruir do tempo dedicado ao prazer, hoje em dia o seu acesso está mais liberalizado. O aumento dos rendimentos e do tempo para o lazer, devido às folgas e férias pagas, conduziu a uma mudança nos usos do tempo livre, dando, segundo alguns autores, origem a uma certa moral do prazer. A adrenalina produzida por desportos de aventura proporciona uma oportunidade aos indivíduos que buscam, através de emoções fortes, uma recriação da sua identidade e uma evasão ao stress provocado pelo quotidiano. Deste modo, qual será a estratégia de comunicação mais adequada para fidelizar clientes a um Parque de Desportos Aventura? Este projecto será dividido em duas partes, na primeira será feita a revisão bibliográfica referente ao lazer e à sociologia de emoções, bem como a identificação de ferramentas de fidelização de clientes, e na segunda, é apresentada a pergunta de partida e analisada a estratégia de marketing e comunicação do Parque Aventura Sniper, um Parque dedicado a desportos de aventura sediado em Bucelas, na área da Grande Lisboa. Os principais objectivos são diagnosticar a comunicação da empresa e, com base nesse diagnóstico, desenvolver um plano de comunicação com o propósito de combater a sazonalidade do negócio, angariando e fidelizando clientes.
Through the years, leisure has had many different forms of importance in society: If, up until some decades ago, only some social strata were able to have free time for leisure, nowadays it is available to everyone. The evolution of income and leisure time, thanks to paid holidays, has brought a change in the use of our free-time, leading to a certain moral of pleasure, according to several authors. The adrenaline produced by adventure sports creates an opportunity for the people who seek for a recreation of their identity and a combat to daily life stress by experiencing strong emotions. Which could be, then, the best communication strategy attain its clients’ loyalty? This project is divided into two parts, a first one consisting in a thorough literary review of leisure, sociology of emotions and customer loyalty tools, and a second one which will be presented with a starting question and where the marketing and communication strategy of Parque Aventura Sniper, a park dedicated to adventure sports situated in Bucelas, in the area of the Greater Lisbon, will be analyzed. The main goals are to diagnose the company’s communication and, basing on this diagnose, to create a communication plan with the purpose of levelling the seasonality of the business, attracting new clients and securing their loyalty.

Title: Model of training preparation for young future flyboarders Objectives: The objective of the work is to create a model of training preparation for young future flyboarders based on the empiricism of the most successful professional flyboarders. Methods: Ten intentionally selected respondents filled out the survey on their current sports specializations. Three of them were selected based on the frequency of specific and non-specific sports. Individual non- standardized interviews were conducted with them, which were based on direct verbal communication with the respondents. Results: We created a model of training preparation for young future flyboarders. The training preparation model is divided for children from six to nine years old, in which we recommend general sports training (gymnastics, athletics, swimming, sports games). For children from ten to twelve years old, we recommend trampoline jumping, high jumping, swimming, balance exercises, body strengthening and stretching. For children over the age of thirteen, we recommend starting to fly on a flyboard. Keywords: extreme sport, fly on water , water sport, training preparation, change of sport, adrenaline

Full textAbstract:
The endocrine system pervades all of sports, just as it pervades all of biology and medicine. The importance of endocrine glands and their hormonal products and effects in sports is axiomatic to the endocrinologist, and the actions in athletic activity of key hormones such as adrenaline are even known to much of the lay public. The other chapters in this textbook provided a systematic review of the effects of these hormones on organ systems, including those involved in sports as well as in health and disease. This chapter will only provide brief review of endocrine physiology that is relevant to sports. Such reviews can be readily found in other publications (1) as well as in the other chapters of this book. This chapter will instead focus on the role of hormones in the international sports arena, an arena that is populated by professional athletes, aspiring athletes, and the weekend warrior public of essentially all countries. Unlike classic endocrinology, where primarily endogenous hormones play a role in both health and disease, exogenous hormones taken supraphysiologically as well as physiologically have a major role in contemporary sports endocrinology (2). Consequently, sports endocrinology often collides with the administrative, regulatory, and legal bodies that reside at its intersection with sports events (2, 3). While systematic research will inform the basis of much of this chapter, anecdotes taken from sport can also be provocative if not informative (3). For example, consider the role of thyroid hormone replacement in the athlete who has hypothyroidism, a situation recently manifest by a pitcher in major league baseball who had surgery for thyroid cancer. Without much research support, the temptation exists to try to enhance this athlete’s performance by increasing his thyroid hormone dose before he is scheduled to pitch. At the other end of this particular spectrum is the athlete who chronically abuses androgens. Cases that also challenge the endocrinologist can fall in between these two extremes, such as glucose regulation for a diabetic footballer between games and during games and the cricketer who uses amphetamines intermittently. While the use of hormones is at the centre of classic endocrinology, the medical periphery that is the ambit of some of sports endocrinology lurches beyond, into exercise pills and gene doping (1–4). It will become apparent that there is a paucity of controlled studies that demonstrate performance-enhancing effects of most of the agents abused by athletes (5). However, when all of the evidence is examined, exogenous androgens and perhaps growth hormone do seem to enhance athletic performance.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter discusses the lure of atavism in horror, and suggests where Neil Marshall's The Descent (2005) might fit in to this tradition. Horror recognises the allure of the past, figured variously as either pre-Enlightenment or pre-industrial, but tends to conceive of it only in the bloodiest, most violent terms. The nostalgia is driven by a dissatisfaction with modern life, an urge to live closer to a state of nature, untrammelled by the bounds of civilisation. The decision to go on a caving trip, putting their lives in danger for a leisure activity, suggests that the group in The Descent considers modern life soft and unchallenging. They are driven to test themselves in ways otherwise unavailable to them in modern life; they want adrenalin kicks and the best way they have found to get them is through extreme sports.
