OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effect of exercise to osteoporosis by bone mineral density (BMD) measurement of athelets comparing normal individuals in general population. METHODS: BMD of radium, lumber spine, and femoral neck were measured by single photon absorptiometry (SPA), quantitative CT (QCT), and dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) respectively in athletes (n = 162, male 79, female 83) and age matched non-athletes normal population (n = 204, male 91, female 113) in Beijing...

Power athletes abuse anabolic androgenic steroids (AASs) and growth hormone (GH) to gain their muscular mass and strength. We wanted to determine how massive, self-administered doses of AASs with or without GH affect the left ventricular (LV) dimensions in power athletes. These substances are assumed to increase LVmass mainly by thickening the ventricular walls. Anecdotal evidence suggests a higher risk of cardiovascular events in AAS abusers. We were interested to see if LV dimensions and function in AAS abusers would indicate this increased risk...

#23
REVIEW
K M Smith, K J Kovacich-Smith, M Witt
Owing to the variability of injury, a mechanism of injury other than external rotation of the foot should not rule out a high ankle sprain. One must consider syndesmotic injury in the differential diagnosis of common ankle sprains and trauma. A high index of suspicion must lead the physician through clinical and radiographic examinations. Early and appropriate treatment of a high ankle sprain can greatly decrease a prolonged return to activity. Patients, especially competitive atheletes, must be educated regarding the morbidity of the condition...

Management theorists have long sought to identify precisely what makes some people flourish under pressure and others fold. But they have come up with only partial answers: rich material rewards, the right culture, management by objectives. The problem with most approaches is that they deal with people only from the neck up, connecting high performance primarily with cognitive capacity. Authors Loehr and Schwartz argue that a successful approach to sustained high performance must consider the person as a whole...

REVIEW
L Kanerva
A 21-year-old man developed painful hyperkeratotic, fissured, callosities on his knuckles ("knuckle pads") after having boxed for five evenings a week for six months. Boxer's knuckle pads are one type of traumatic skin injury regularly found in athletes, such as "jogger's toe", "athelete's nodule", "jog-ger's nipple", "runner's rump", "runner's bump", "rower's rump", "tennis toe", "skier 's shin", "surfer's nodule" "black heel", "black palm", "jazz ballet bottom" and "stria distensae". These types of traumatic skin injuries are briefly reviewed here...

An Athletic Image Scale including female physiques with and without muscular definition is currently in the developmental phase. With shading, contouring, and three-dimensionality not offered previously on figure-rating scales, this instrument was designed to examine an apparent growing interest on the part of women in atheletic body-image ideals. The athletic level of each figure on the scale was based on responses of a group of college women. The 30-figure pilot scale was then tested by rating current and ideal body-shape preferences of two groups of first-year college women, 65 who exercised regularly and 45 who engaged in no regular exercise...

To obtain more information on the effects of long-lasting endurance and strength training on the constituents of the blood, several haematological and iron-related parameters were measured at rest in 39 male athletes from the Polish team who participated in the Olympics in Seoul in 1988. The athletes were divided into two groups: endurance-trained subjects (group E, cyclists, canoeists and rowers; n = 22) and strength-trained subjects (group S, wrestlers and judo; n = 17). The control group was composed of untrained male subjects (n = 48)...

REVIEW
H F Tse, C P Lau
Exercise-associated cardiac asystole (EACA) in patients without structural heart disease is uncommonly encountered. Two patients who developed prolonged asystolic arrest associated with exercise are described; both demonstrated a positive head-up tilt table response, absence of underlying heart disease, and a history of vagotonia. A review of this condition in the literature suggests the occurrence of this syndrome of EACA in young men with atheletic inclination who developed syncope usually after a strenuous exercise at a high heart rate...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
R B Liberman, J Palek
Obligatory runners and patients with anorexia nervosa share psychologic characteristics. The intensely atheletic person described in this report demonstrated hematologic abnormalities identical to those previously reported in anorexia nervosa. These findings, as well as nonhematologic features of the case, support the contention that obligatory running and anorexia nervosa represent interrelated disorders.

COMPARATIVE STUDY
E A Richter, B Kiens, A Raben, N Tvede, B K Pedersen
The influence of a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet versus a meat-rich Western diet on in vitro measures of immune function was studied in eight male endurance athletes. Subjects consumed two different diets for 2 x 6 wk, separated by 4 wk on an ad libitum diet, in a cross-over design. Both diets consisted of 57 energy % (E%) carbohydrates, 14 E% protein and 29 E% fat. One diet was a mixed meat-rich diet (M) prepared with 69% animal protein sources, whereas the other diet (V) was a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet prepared with 82% vegetable protein sources...

REVIEW
G J Seymour
Immunological mechanisms have been implicated in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease for over 25 years. Studies throughout the 1970s established that advanced forms of the disease were dominated by B-cells/plasma cells while early and putative stable forms of the disease were dominated by T-cells/lymphocytes. Based on these observations, a model of disease was put forward which highlighted a possible T-cell/macrophage immunoregulatory imbalance being involved in disease pathogenesis. Studies throughout the 1980s have supported such a concept although the precise nature of this imbalance remains elusive...

1. Haematological investigation and blood volume measurements were carried out on forty male middle and long distance runners and twelve non-athletes. 2. The distribution of haemoglobin concentration, packed cell volume, erythrocyte count, total ironbinding capacity, serum and erythrocyte folate and serum vitamin B12 concentrations were essentially the same in atheletes and non-athletes. The mean serum iron concentration was higher in non-athletes than in athletes. There was no difference in the above measurements between athletes taking iron and/or folate and athletes not taking these supplements...

Maximal aerobic power of 37 athletes (14 females and ten male cross-country skiers, eight male rowers and five male cyclists) was determined during uphill running on the treadmill and during maximal performance of their specific sport activity. For the skiers a significantly (P less than 0.005) higher VO2max was found during uphill skiing than during running, the differences being 2.9 and 3.1% for the females and males, respectively. The rowers and cyclists obtained a difference of 4.2 and 5.6%, respectively (P less than 0...

Various aluminum salts were evaluated for in vitro and in vivo antimicrobial activity and ability to bind with serum proteins (astrigency) with the object of finding a colorless substance to substitute for carbol-fuchsin solution (Castellani paint) in the treatment of symptomatic interdigital athlete's foot. Aluminum chlorohydrate was more powerful in killing bacteria and fungi than aluminum acetate and aluminum chloride. However, aluminum chloride showed pronounced astringency and was the only compound to bring about rapid resolution of the signs and symptoms of athlete's foot in open-ended clinical trials...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
R L Larson, H E Cabaud, D B Slocum, S L James, T Keenan, T Hutchinson
Patellar compression syndrome may be a manifestation of contraction of the lateral retinacular structures which consists largely of the lateral patellofemoral ligament producing a tethering action on the patella. This may produce parapatellar pain, particularly in activities requiring repetitive knee flexion. Minor patellofemoral incongruencies with pain, grating, and functional limitation may be found on examination but the patient does not demonstrate the problems of instability of marked congenital abnormalities often seen with other patellar problems...
