“…Every study obtained 60% or more of the scale's total score (15 points), as can be observed in Table 1. One study obtained a score of 9/15 [46], two obtained 10/15 [42,45], one obtained 11/15 [37], four obtained 12/15 [41,44,47,48], three obtained 13/15 [38,40,43], and one obtained 14/15 [39].…”

“…Twentytwo studies were excluded because they were not OCS interventions; twelve because the mean age of the sample was less than 60 years of age; thirteen because they did not correspond to the research object, i.e., they were not centered on the health outcomes of older adults; three because the full texts were inaccessible; five because they were not randomised-controlled trials; and four because they were reviews or case studies. After this process, the total number of studies that met the selection criteria was equal to twelve [37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48].…”

“…Five studies were developed in Germany [42,43,[46][47][48], two in Italy [38,39], two in South Korea [37,44], one in the United States of America [40], one in China [41], and one in Brazil [45]. As to the practiced OCS modality, two were interventions through boxing [40,41], two through judo [38,39], six through karate [42,43,[45][46][47][48], and two through taekwondo [37,44]. No research that used fencing or wrestling as an intervention modality for older adults was found.…”

“…Two studies point out that their participants were healthy, functionally independent, with a normal cognitive status [37], and some had mild cognitive impairment [41]. Two studies indicated that their sample was composed of older adults with good physical and mental health and a low risk of falling [38,39]. One study pointed out that its participants were postmenopausal women with stage 2 hypertension [44].…”

The aim of this systematic review was to analyse the studies centered on the effects of Olympic combat sports (OCS [i.e., boxing, fencing, judo, karate, taekwondo, wrestling]) on older adults’ physical-functional, physiological, and psychoemotional health status. The review comprised randomised-controlled trials with OCS interventions, including older adults (>60 years), and measures of physical-functional, physiological, and/or psychoemotional health. The studies were searched through SCOPUS, PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, PsycINFO, and EBSCO databases until 5 January 2021. The PRISMA-P and TESTEX scales were used to assess the quality of the selected studies. The protocol was registered in PROSPERO (code: CRD42020204034). Twelve OCS intervention studies were found (scored ≥60% for methodological quality), comprising 392 females and 343 males (mean age: 69.6 years), participating in boxing, judo, karate, and taekwondo. The qualitative analysis revealed that compared to controls, OCS training improved muscle strength, cardiorespiratory capacity, agility, balance, movement, attention, memory, mental health, anxiety, and stress tolerance. Meta-analysis was available only for the chair stand test, and an improvement was noted after OCS training compared to control. In conclusion, OCS interventions improves older adults’ physical-functional, physiological, and psychoemotional health. Our systematic review confirms that OCS training has high adherence (greater than 80%) in older adults.

ZusammenfassungStürze sind der wichtigste Risikofaktor für Frakturen im Alter. Epidemiologische Studien haben viele Risikofaktoren für Stürze identifiziert, die durch strukturiertes körperliches Training beeinflussbar sind. Dieser Artikel beschreibt die Evidenz zu Inhalten, Methoden und Belastungsdosierung eines körperlichen Trainings zur Vermeidung von Stürzen und zur Reduktion des Sturzimpaktes.Die Ergebnisse zeigen hohe Evidenz, dass verglichen mit inaktiven Kontrollgruppen, multimodale Programme, Gleichgewichts-& Funktionstraining und Tai Chi wirksam sind, Stürze zu vermeiden. Insbesondere die Rolle anspruchsvollen Gleichgewichtstrainings kommt hier zum Tragen. Neuere Inhalte/Methodenvariationen sind auch wirksam. Hierzu zählen Stepping und Perturbationstraining. Letzteres scheint auch in kürzeren Zeiträumen beachtliche Effekte zu erzielen. Während einige Programme supervidiert werden müssen, existieren auch wirksame individuelle Heimtrainings. Mit Ausnahme von Perturbationstraining, sollten Programme 3mal/Woche über mind. 3 Monate durchgeführt werden. Ein ggf. periodisiertes, dauerhaftes Training gewährleistet langanhaltende Effekte. Für isoliertes Kraft-, Ausdauer- oder Beweglichkeitstraining, Training im Wasser, Tanzen und interaktive kognitiv-motorische Interventionen liegt keine hinreichende Evidenz vor, um sie als wirksame Trainings in der Sturzprävention zu empfehlen. Jedoch sind sie größtenteils effektiv, um Risikofaktoren zu beeinflussen oder einen Einstieg ins Training zu unterstützen.Limitierte Evidenz existiert für die Beeinflussung des Sturzvorgangs durch Training. Bei gesunden, älteren Menschen sind Sturz-, Abfang-, Abrolltechniken sowie Stepping geeignet, den Impakt selbst-induzierter Stürze zu reduzieren. Keine diesbezüglichen Daten existieren für Verletzungen als Folge echter Stürze.

The practice of judo appears to impact positively on physical performance, muscle strength and flexibility in older people, while also benefiting bone mineral density in middle-aged adults. This scoping review aimed to map the range, scope and type of relevant studies conducted to examine the safety, feasibility and effects of judo interventions on various healthrelated outcomes designed for middle-aged and older adults (≥45 years) with no previous experience in judo. Six databases as well as gray literature were searched using a developed search strategy. Two independent reviewers screened the titles and abstracts, as well as fulltexts of relevant articles using data extraction tools developed for the purpose of this study. Fifteen original studies were included, comprising 648 participants (mean age 45-77.8 years). All 15 studies reported significant positive results of ≥1 health-related outcome. Quality of life and bone mineral density seemed to improve only after longer interventions (≥9 or ≥12 months, respectively), while results regarding fear of falling and physical activity levels were mixed. Five studies showed improvements in fear of falling while four studies reported no change. Similarly, two studies showed improvements in physical activity, while another study showed no change. Five studies reported on safety and deemed their intervention to be safe (no adverse events), with two studies confirming feasibility. Findings suggest that judo interventions can positively impact health-related outcomes in middle-aged and older adults. However, studies had small sample sizes and more research is needed to confirm these findings.
