Abstract:
In spite of the wide range of injuries in adolescents during sports activities, there are only a few studies investigating the type and frequency of sport injuries in puberty. However, this information may help to prevent, diagnose and treat sports injuries among teens. 4468 injuries in adolescent patients were treated over a ten year period of time: 66,97% were boys and 32.88% girls. The most frequent sports injuries were football (31.13%) followed by handball (8.89%) and sports during school (8.77%). The lower extremity was involved in 68.71% of the cases. Knee problems were seen in 29.79% of the patients; 2.57% spine and 1.99% head injuries. Injuries consisted primarily of distortions (35.34%) and ligament tears (18.76%); 9,00% of all injuries were fractures. We found more skin wounds (6:1) and fractures (7:2) in male patients compared to females. The risk of ligament tears was highest during skiing. Three of four ski injuries led to knee problems. Spine injuries were observed most often during horse riding (1:6). Head injuries were seen in bicycle accidents (1:3). Head injuries were seen in male patients much more often then in female patients (21:1). Fractures were noted during football (1:9), skiing (1:9), inline (2:3), and during school sports (1:11). Many adolescents participate in various sports. Notwithstanding the methodological problems with epidemiological data, there is no doubt about the large number of athletes sustain musculoskeletal injuries, sometimes serious. In most instances, the accident does not happened during professional sports and training. Therefore, school teachers and low league trainer play an important role preventing further accidence based on knowledge of individual risk patterns of different sports. It is imperative to provide preventive medical check-ups, to monitor the sport-specific needs for each individual sports, to observe the training skills as well as physical fitness needed and to evaluation coaches education.

Abstract:
The risk of injury can occur in all types of sports and is often experienced by athletes. Sports Injury is an injury to the muscular and skeletal system caused by sports activities. First Aid is emergency assistance to accident victims (sick) quickly and precisely at the scene before being evacuated to an expert person. In general, the management of sports injuries uses the principle of RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) which is always applied at the beginning of the injury before further handling. Exercising excessively and ignoring the correct rules of exercise, even bring injury that endangers himself. This wrong activity is due to heating does not meet the requirements, excessive fatigue, especially in the muscles, and wrong in doing sports movements. The most common injury cases, usually too ambitious to complete training targets or want to improve the training phase. A good coach will always pay attention to the state of the athlete from all aspects, one of which is from the physical state of the athlete. This means that the trainer knows how to manage the athlete not to get injured, and if he has an injury quickly know how to help, especially for minor injuries. However, not all coaches understand how the injury and how it helps for athletes. That is why there is a need for training in sports injuries and how to help for coaches who are expected to be used by athletes.

Abstract:
Ayurveda is attaining the attraction globally not only as an ancient life science but also as a successful aid to treat and manage the ailments in style, Apart from the common sayings that Ayurveda does not have quick-acting treatment modality, Nowadays Ayurveda is successfully managing sports medicine effectively and smoothly, as far as sports medicine and athletes are concerned Injuries are part & parcel of a sportsperson’s life. They are a class of people who torture their body to the maximum to get the maximum result. Injuries are sustained due to faulty techniques, accidents as in the case of contact sports. In the process, they sustain a lot of injuries. Despite advanced treatment techniques injuries tend to recur. It severely hampers the progress of their career & shortens their active sports life. It forces them for early retirement. Ayurvedic treatment like sringavacharana & bandaging technique help to heal the injuries more effectively. Sringavacharana is an essential tool in the armarium of Ayurvedic physician to deal as emergency care in low back pain.here the technique and step involved in executing the Sringavacharana in the modern era and swastika bandhana is explained with essential photographs and also with the help of a clinical study.

Abstract:
Introduction: Epidemiological analysis of buco-maxillo-facial (BMF) fractures is important to provide measures for preventive care and effective treatment of these injuries. Objectives: To verify the prevalence of sport-related accidents involving the BMF structure and factors associated with sport modality, and knowledge and use of mouthguards. Method: This was a cross-sectional, descriptive, survey-based study involving 647 athletes participating in different sports in a Brazilian city in 2019. Respondents answered a questionnaire that addressed the primary outcome - occurrence of trauma to the head and neck region during sporting activities - and the knowledge and use of mouthguards. The following variables were investigated: marital status, sex, age, education, sport, affected region, and cause and consequence of trauma. Results: One hundred forty-eight athletes (22.87%) sustained trauma during sporting activities/competition. The mouth was the most affected site (30.40%) and contact with an elbow was the main cause. In 80 (54.05%) athletes, trauma occurred during game conditions and 68 (45.95%) during training. A total of 536 athletes (82.84%) were familiar with the concept of wearing a mouthguard; however, only 169 (26.12%) actually used one, 13 (7.69%) of whom were fitted with a custom mouthguard recommended by a dentist. There was a significant association between the occurrence of BMF trauma (BMFT) and knowledge of mouthguards (p=0.0042), sport modality (p<0.0001), education (p<0.0001), age (p< 0.0001), and sex (p=0.0421). Conclusion: The occurrence of BMFTs in athletes was high. Although most were familiar with mouthguards, their use was not a usual practice.

Abstract:
BackgroundWe analyzed the utilization of acute neurologic care during the 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of data collected during the games.ResultsSixty-three neurologic evaluations were performed in patients from the Olympic Family (OF), 22 of these involving athletes from 19 countries. Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) were the most frequent reason for assessment among athletes, some associated with polytrauma. Four patients were admitted to the neurocritical care unit (NICU): 2 acute ischemic strokes, 1 TIA, and 1 polytrauma with moderate TBI. Among nonathletes, evaluation of TBI associated with motor vehicle accidents was surprisingly high, with 10 assessments, none requiring admission. Also, nonathletes with seizures, multiple sclerosis flare, functional deficits, and psychiatric complaints received neurologic evaluation. During the Paralympic Games, 17 neurologic evaluations were performed in patients from the Paralympic Family (PF), 13 involving athletes from 10 countries. Five athletes presented with mild TBI. One PG training coach was admitted to the NICU after receiving alteplase for an acute ischemic stroke.ConclusionsAs expected, many athletes with sports-related injuries were evaluated, but cases of diverse acute neurologic pathologies were observed among nonathlete members of the OF and PF. Olympic Games are large, logistically complex events involving thousands of people. Our observations suggest that a comprehensive and detailed plan for neurologic emergencies should be considered for future games.

Abstract:
Background: Although sleep has been identified as an important modifiable risk factor for sports injury, the effect of decreased sleep on sports injuries in adolescents is poorly studied. Purpose: To systematically review published literature to examine if a lack of sleep is associated with sports injuries in adolescents and to delineate the effects of chronic versus acute lack of sleep. Methods: PubMed and EMBASE databases were systematically searched for studies reporting statistics regarding the relationship between sleep and sports injury in adolescents aged <19 years published between 1/1/1997 and 12/21/2017. From included studies, the following information was extracted: bibliographic and demographic information, reported outcomes related to injury and sleep, and definitions of injury and decreased sleep. Additionally, a NOS (Newcastle-Ottawa Scale) assessment and an evaluation of the OCEM (Oxford Center for Evidence-Based Medicine) level of evidence for each study was conducted to assess each study’s individual risk of bias, and the risk of bias across all studies. Results: Of 907 identified articles, 7 met inclusion criteria. Five studies reported that adolescents who chronically slept poorly were at a significantly increased likelihood of experiencing a sports or musculoskeletal injury. Two studies reported on acute sleep behaviors. One reported a significant positive correlation between acutely poor sleep and injury, while the other study reported no significant correlation. In our random effects model, adolescents who chronically slept poorly were more likely to be injured than those who slept well (OR 1.58, 95% CI 1.05 to 2.37, p = 0.03). OCEM criteria assessment showed that all but one study (a case-series) were of 2b level of evidence—which is the highest level of evidence possible for studies which were not randomized control trials or systematic reviews. NOS assessment was conducted for all six cohort studies to investigate each study’s individual risk of bias. Five out of six of these studies received between 4 to 6 stars, categorizing them as having a moderate risk of bias. One study received 7 stars, categorizing it as having a low risk of bias. NOS assessment revealed that the most consistent source of bias was in ascertainment of exposure: all studies relied on self-reported data regarding sleep hours rather than a medical or lab record of sleep hours. Conclusions: Chronic lack of sleep in adolescents is associated with greater risk of sports and musculoskeletal injuries. Current evidence cannot yet definitively determine the effect of acute lack of sleep on injury rates. Our results thus suggest that adolescents who either chronically sleep less than 8 hours per night, or have frequent night time awakenings, are more likely to experience sports or musculoskeletal injuries.

Abstract:
Background: Tibial spine fractures (TSFs) are intra-articular avulsion fractures of the intercondylar eminence which tend to afflict younger, skeletally immature patients. Given the relatively rare nature of these injuries, the epidemiology is not well-understood. There have been several estimates reported from single centers, though the potential for historical and regional variability in activities and risk factors limits the generalizability of their findings. Thus, the aim of the present investigation was to characterize the epidemiology of TSFs using pooled multicenter data. Hypothesis/Purpose: Report on the epidemiology of tibial spine fractures. Methods: This study was a retrospective analysis of patients with TSFs who were evaluated and treated at one of ten different sites across the United States. Information regarding patient demographics, injury mechanism, and imaging reports were collected. Fractures were classified according to the modified Meyers and McKeever method which groups the injuries as non-displaced (Type I), minimally displaced with an intact hinge (Type II), completely displaced (Type III), or completely displaced and comminuted (Type IV). Descriptive analyses were performed to evaluate the epidemiology of these fractures across the country. Results: We identified 469 patients (69% male; mean age 12.1 + 2.9 years) with TSFs over an eight-year period. 73% of patients were 14 years or younger. With respect to fracture severity, 5% of patients were Meyers and McKeever Type I, 35% Type II, and 50% Type III, and 10% Type IV. Overall, 60% of the fractures were completely displaced (Types III and IV). The most common mechanism of injury was a contact injury (48%), while 46% reported a non-contact twisting injury. With regard to activity at the time of injury, over half (53%) of patients were involved in sports and 14% of patients were biking recreationally. Less common causes included a fall from height (9%), motor vehicle accident (4%) recreational running (3%), and horseplay (3%). Of those injured playing sports, football (35%), skiing (21%), basketball (10%), and soccer (10%) accounted for almost 80% of the injuries in this cohort. Conclusion: Ultimately, our study represents the first multicenter analysis of the epidemiology of tibial spine fractures. The patient demographics and mechanism of injury for these injuries appears relatively consistent across geographic distributions. However, the recent rise in youth sports participation, single sport specialization, and year-round play in pediatric athletes appears to have generated a new principal risk factor for this injury in sports participation as opposed to the historically-described biking accidents.

Abstract:
Physical education programs, athletic programs and intramural sports programs are a vital part of the American educational system. However, since the mid-sixties, there has been an increase in sports injury litigation against the teachers and coaches who direct and supervise these programs. The purpose of this study was twofold. First, the study was to report the legal liability of elementary, secondary and higher education physical educators, athletic coaches and intramural sports directors from 1977-1987. In addition this study compared the holdings of the court cases from 1977-1987 to the holdings of the court cases found in five unpublished manuscripts. From 1977 to 1987 there were 92 elementary and secondary lawsuits and 19 college lawsuits involving these professionals, including their supervisors. There were 41 cases involving liability against the boards of education and boards of trustees. The groups were found not liable in 23 of the cases. The primary reason for not being liable was their protection from suit because of the doctrine of governmental immunity. However, in states where the doctrine of governmental immunity did not exist boards of education and boards of trustees were found liable for improper supervision, lack of proper medical assistance and creating a dangerous situation or hazard. Sixteen cases were reported against school employees. In 10 of the cases the court rulings were held against these employees. The reasons included: improper supervision, failure to follow state athletic association rules and improper instruction. Cases held in favor of the school employees resulted when: employees were acting within the scope of their employment, the employees were providing adequate supervision and instruction and the students purposely disregarded safety rules. The results of this study, when compared to five previous studies, indicated that even though the number of cases reported were similar the present study showed an increase in the number of decisions favoring the plaintiff at the elementary and secondary level. Also, the present study revealed an increase of 250% in the number of lawsuits reported at the college level and a 23% increase in the number of cases favoring the plaintiff.

Abstract:
This thesis is the culmination of a program of research which initially began in 1995. It reflects a major professional interest in the imaging of sports injuries which developed gradually over the 10 year period between 1992 to 2001, based upon previous clinical experience and expertise in the management of musculoskeletal injuries and their anatomical and pathomechanical origins. The central theme of study relates to the use of cross-sectional imaging techniques to investigate the pathoanatomical basis for groin pain in althletes with particular reference to professional soccer players with chronic groin pain. The current thesis is based around two key postulates. Firstly, that most of the commonly diagnosed causes of groin pain in professional athletes are anatomically and functionally linked and, secondly, that modern cross-sectional imaging can demonstrate both the correct diagnosis and the underlying biomechanical causes. The program of study consists of three different but linked project themes. The first investigates the scope of the problem, i.e. the differential diagnosis and prevalence of groin pain in professional soccer players. The second investigates the precise "normal" anatomy, i.e. the gross topographical anatomy of the pubic symphysis and parasymphyseal regions as actually exists rather than the regional anatomy that appears in classical anatomical texts. The third builds upon the first two projects and, investigates the underlying pathomechanical processes using magnetic resonance imaging. The study results suggest that a unifying mechanism of injury exists which partly explains the diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties that occur in athletes with groin pain. It also demonstrates that better understanding of the true pubic symphyseal anatomy allows a more accurate diagnosis to be made and that magnetic resonance imaging can demonstrate the relevant underlying pathoanatomy. The thesis adds significantly to the body of scientific knowledge related to this important sports-related, clinical condition.

Abstract:
Those with an optimistic explanatory style have generally been linked with improved mental and physical health across a variety of chronic and serious conditions. The purpose of the current study was to examine the effects of explanatory style on sport related concussions. University varsity athletes (n = 348) from six interdependent team sports at two universities completed both the Attributional Style Questionnaire and the Sport History Questionnaire to examine personality variables and concussion rehabilitation. Overall, the findings indicated that explanatory style did not influence concussion recovery. However, it did effect concussion prevalence, with pessimists experiencing significantly more concussions. Furthermore, various gender differences were demonstrated for concussion prevalence and recovery. The current results help understand the psychology of concussions, as well as concussion prevention efforts and management strategies.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of self-motivation and several non-psychological variables on injured athletes' adherence to rehabilitation. Twenty-five (17 male, 8 female) injured intercollegiate athletes from several sports (football, gymnastics, diving, swimming, volleyball, cross country/track, baseball, and tennis) participated. After injured athletes reported to the training room for treatment, they were informed of the study by the head athletic trainers. Athletes agreeing to participate were required to complete an injury information form and the Self-Motivation Inventory. The head athletic trainers recorded injury information, attendance to rehabilitation, and made judgments regarding each athletes' adherence to rehabilitation.Adherence was measured four different ways (i.e., attendance rates, trainer judgments, trainer rankings, and a combination of the previous three to create an overall adherence measure). The results of this study are inconclusive, due to the fact that the different adherence measures did not agree for each independent measure. The results, however, suggest that self-motivation and certain non-psychological variables (i.e., academic class, scholarship status, and injury severity) may serve as predictors of injured athletes' adherence to rehabilitation.

Abstract:
Abstract Constant monitoring of an athlete allows to foresee any injuries by acting on the dynamics of the movements. For runners, the conduct of a correct athletic gesture according to the athlete’s specific body biomechanics guarantees the minimization of non-accidental injury factors. For athletes who are engaged in endurance sports such as marathon runners, the long distances to which they are subjected increases the importance of this type of monitoring. This work reports the results of a study carried out on three IUTA (Italian Ultramarathon and Trail Association) athletes during a routine check carried out at a reference healthcare facility that takes care of their care. These athletes are all specialized in the 24-hour race in which they try to reach the most distance in this time. This type of effort can be made if the athlete undergoes an adequate training regime over long distances. The execution of the running pattern in such a repeated way can lead to the accentuation of postural and joint problems. It is therefore necessary to monitor the biomechanics parameters. In this work, therefore, various gestures are analyzed to show potential movement deficits in order to act in advance on the running technique.

Abstract:
Repetitive concussions and sub-concussions suffered by athletes have been linked to a series of sequelae ranging from traumatic encephalopathy to dementia pugilistica. We developed a detailed finite element model of the human head based on standard libraries of medical imaging. The model includes realistic material properties of the brain tissue, bone, soft tissue, and cerebral spinal fluid, as well as a helmet. The strains/stresses and pressure gradients and concentrations created in the brain tissue due to propagation of waves produced by the impact through the complex internal structure of the human head for various impact scenarios were studied. This approach has the potential to expand our understanding of the mechanism of brain injury, and to better assessment of risk of delayed neurological disorders for tens of thousands of young athletes throughout the world.
