High performance athletes, especially endurance athletes, frequently experience gastrointestinal and liver issues due to training stress, dehydration, and environmental factors. These conditions can significantly impair athletic performance.

Area of Science:

  • Sports Medicine
  • Gastroenterology
  • Hepatology

Context:

  • Endurance sports like marathons and triathlons place extreme physiological demands on athletes.
  • Gastrointestinal and liver disorders are prevalent in high-performance athletes, affecting up to 40% with insufficient training.
  • Factors contributing include training stress, dehydration, environmental conditions, NSAID use, and hyperosmolar fluid intake.

Purpose:

  • To outline the common gastrointestinal and liver disorders experienced by high-performance athletes.
  • To identify the contributing factors and underlying mechanisms of these exertional pathologies.
  • To highlight the impact of these disorders on athletic performance.

Summary:

  • Athletes experience gastric issues like pain and reflux due to reduced splanchnic flow and altered gastric emptying.

  • Colic disorders manifest as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and potentially ischemic colitis from reduced blood supply or mechanical trauma.
  • Exertional heat stroke can lead to multi-organ damage, including ischemic hepatic necrosis and liver failure.

    • Impact:

    • Gastrointestinal and hepatic disorders affect 30-40% of high-performance athletes.
    • These conditions can lead to a 10% reduction in athletic performance.
    • Understanding these risks is crucial for athlete health, training, and competitive outcomes.
