Muscle Recovery and Fatigue01:24

Muscle Recovery and Fatigue

1.9K
Muscle fatigue refers to the decline in a muscle's ability to maintain the force of contraction after prolonged activity. It primarily stems from changes within muscle fibers. Even before experiencing muscle fatigue, one may feel tired and have the urge to stop the activity. This response, known as central fatigue, occurs due to changes in the central nervous system, namely the brain and spinal cord. While there is no single mechanism that induces fatigue, it may serve as a protective...

Inflammatory Bowel Disease III: Diagnostic Studies and Management I-Nutritional Therapy

310
Various diagnostic tests are employed in the diagnostic process for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), particularly to differentiate between Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
Diagnostic studies
A colonoscopy is the definitive screening test, distinguishing ulcerative colitis from other colon diseases with similar symptoms. During a colonoscopy test, inflamed mucosa with exudate ulcerations can be observed, and biopsies are taken to determine the histologic characteristics of the...

Chest Physiotherapy01:24

Chest Physiotherapy

370
Chest Physiotherapy (CPT) is a therapeutic technique used in respiratory care to improve ventilation, clear bronchial secretions, and enhance the efficiency of respiratory muscles. This therapy includes three primary procedures: postural drainage, percussion, and vibration. It can be performed on spontaneously breathing patients and those who are intubated and mechanically ventilated.
Purpose
CPT is primarily used for patients with excessive bronchial secretions who have difficulty clearing...

Area of Science:

  • Sports Medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Nutritional Science

Background:

  • Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (REDs) is a complex condition affecting athletes.
  • Characterizing athletes with suspected REDs is crucial for effective intervention.
  • Existing treatment structures require evaluation for efficacy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To characterize athletes with suspected REDs undergoing interdisciplinary treatment.
  • To assess the cross-sectional and longitudinal efficacy of a multidisciplinary REDs consultation structure.
  • To provide data for evidence-based advancements in REDs management.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 58 athletes diagnosed with REDs between 2019-2022.
  • Data collection included medical records, anthropometrics, performance, labs, diet, and psychosomatic assessments.
  • Cross-sectional and longitudinal data were analyzed pre- and post-treatment.

Main Results:

  • The study population was predominantly female (97%) and under 18 (66%), with low BMI and menstrual irregularities (93%).
  • Eating disorders were prevalent (40%), with dietary patterns favoring plant-based, low-energy-dense foods.
  • A significant mean weight gain of 7 kg was observed in 64% of treated athletes (p < 0.001).

Conclusions:

  • The interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approach to REDs treatment demonstrated effectiveness.
  • This model shows promise for future evidence-based developments in athlete health.
  • Optimized REDs treatment can lead to significant physiological improvements in athletes.
