Abstract:

There was little good research under way, there were several highquality educational programs of specialization. We now have a significant evidence that the lack of exercise leads to the development of cardiac disease, some cancers, type of diabetes, stroke, and certain skeletal muscle disorders.

Abstract:

In this thesis, two potential applications of transdermal iontophoresis in the field of sports medicine were studied: (1) the local delivery of dexamethasone phosphate (Dex-Phos), a corticosteroid used to treat musculoskeletal inflammation, and (2) the extraction of systemic amino acids (AAs), potential biological markers of fatigue in athletes. The iontophoretic delivery of Dex-Phos was studied, in vitro, in order to evaluate the effects of competing ions and electroosmosis, and identify the optimal conditions for its delivery. The iontophoretic extraction of AAs from the skin was first studi

Abstract:

Musculoskeletal complaints are the most common reason for patients to visit a physician, yet competency in musculoskeletal medicine is invariably reported as a deficiency in medical education in the USA. Sports medicine clinical rotations improve both medical students' and residents' musculoskeletal knowledge. Despite the importance of this knowledge, a standardized sports medicine curriculum in emergency medicine (EM) does not exist. Hence, we developed a novel sports medicine rotation for EM residents to improve their musculoskeletal educational experience and to improve their knowledge in m

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from waste and transportation are of environmental concern.

Whilst a small reduction in an individual’s travel and waste may be perceived as having negligible impact, if these are aggregated over a population, the resultant GHG emissions can be significant.

The medical profession has increased its acceptance of the benefits of exercise training for patients with uncomplicated coronary artery disease.

Several epidemiological reports suggest that athletes engaging in marathon-type running events are at increased risk of symptoms of upper respiratory tract infections (URTI).

Background: The association of psychological factors with athletic performance and proneness to injury and illness has been widely recognised as an integral part of athletic preparation, treatment and rehabilitation. The exact nature of this association is still not clear, but it can be hypothesised that better mental health leads to better performance, less injuries and illness and more rapid recovery. Psychological distress is a strong predictor of injury, illness and poor performance, but inherent personality traits have failed to show a constant association with these parameters. Advances

Abstract:

Context: Strength training induces muscle remodeling and may improve insulin responsiveness. Objective: This study will quantify the impact of resistance training on insulin sensitivity in subjects with the metabolic syndrome and correlate this with activation of intramuscular pathways mediating mitochondrial biogenesis and muscle fiber hypertrophy. Design: Tens ubjects with the metabolic syndrome(MS) and nine sedentary controls underwent 8 wk of supervised resistance exercise training with pre-and post-training anthropometric and muscle biochemical assessments. Setting: Resistance exer

Abstract:

Within Exercise Science, there are ongoing debates among health and fitness professionals over exercise related health questions. It can be difficult to discern myth from science when there are poorly designed research studies or limited evidence to unequivocally answer the question. Therefore, the purpose of this symposium is-to have a panel of experts provide research-based evidence related to three controversial topics often posed to exercise science professionals. First, within the weight loss community there is frequent debate over the role of exercising in the fat burning zone for weight
