“…With regard to the type of injuries, sprains and strains accounted for the greatest proportion (61.1%). Similar findings were observed in other sport-active populations 9,33 . Players who jump, leap, land and sprint are more susceptible to sustain sprains and strains and the injured might feel a sudden pain at the beginning and unable to stand or walk subsequently 34 .…”

“…More specially, ankle and foot were the most predominant injured body parts and accounted for nearly one-third of all injuries. This could be found in other reports focused on various sport-active populations 9,33 . These consistent findings might due to the dominant usage of lower limbs when undertaking PAs because actions like pushing, jumping and running preferentially involved in lower limbs 32 .…”

This prospective study was to describe the incidence and characteristics of physical activity-related injuries (PARI) among college students in southern China. Online questionnaires and telephone interviews were combined to investigate the physical activity (PA) participation and PARI occurrences every two weeks. Totally, 84 college students (men: 49; women: 35) with a mean age of 19.4 years completed the entire 1-year follow-up. Overall, 14250.3 PA exposure hours were collected and 36 PARI episodes were reported by 26 students, with an injury incidence density of 2.53 injuries per 1000 PA exposure hours and an injury risk of 0.43 injuries/student/year. July to September accounted for a highest proportion of injuries and half of the injuries happened in the evening. The majority of injuries occurred outdoors, happened in non-contact activities, were acute and involved the lower limbs, with sprains and strains being the primary injury types. Of all injuries, 80.6% resulted in PA withdrawal immediately and 58.3% led to absence from the next planned PA. No significant difference was found between men and women. This study reveals the problem of PARI among college students, which provides the direction for the prevention of PARI in this population.

“…A topic of more recent research is the morphological and structural differences in females that could predict PCS. It has been well established by the literature that female athletes, given equal exposure and risk, are more likely to sustain a concussion [47]. The reasoning behind a female's increased vulnerability is still under debate, with decreased neck girth and differences in play style all seeming to play a role [48,49].…”

Post-concussion syndrome (PCS) is a complex disorder and the complete pathophysiology is still not completely understood. PCS can be subcategorized into physiological PCS, vestibulo-ocular PCS, cervicogenic PCS, and mood-related PCS based on predominant clinical signs and symptoms. Physiological PCS is the most classic type of PCS and is due to global metabolic dysfunction in the brain which affects the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and cerebral blood flow (CBF) autoregulation. This is suspected to be the cause for symptom-limited exercise intolerance which is a characteristic finding in this subtype. In this chapter we discuss the definition of PCS and the main subtypes. We further discuss possible causes for symptoms of PCS based on research that have studied this disorder using advanced imaging, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular metrics, and intracranial pressure. Finally, we discuss the treatment of PCS and the possible long-term effects.

“…ports injury surveillance has been critical in identifying patterns of injury incidence and outcomes among athletes in different sports. [1][2][3][4][5] As its popularity has increased, surveillance methods have been adapted and mechanisms have grown in complexity. One notable advance in recent years has been the accommodation of non-time-loss (NTL) injuries, which result in participation-restriction time ,24 hours.…”

“…These methods have yielded findings suggesting that a substantial proportion of sports-related injuries in collegiate populations are NTL. 4 The analysis of NTL injury data, however, poses a unique statistical challenge. Although injury-surveillance mechanisms that exclusively record TL injuries may contain multiple injury records per athlete, mechanisms that also record NTL injuries are more likely to demonstrate this phenomenon.…”

Context Advances in sports injury-surveillance methods have made it possible to accommodate non–time-loss (NTL) injury reporting; however, the analysis of surveillance data now requires careful consideration of the nuances of NTL injury records. Background Injury-surveillance mechanisms that record NTL injuries are more likely to contain multiple injury records per athlete. These must be handled appropriately in statistical analyses to make methodologically sound inferences. Methods We simulated datasets of NTL injuries using varying degrees of observation clustering and compared the inferences made using traditional techniques with those made after accounting for clustering in computations of injury proportion ratios. Results Inappropriate handling of even moderate clustering resulted in flawed inferences in 10% to 12% of our simulations. We observed greater bias in our estimates as the degree of clustering increased. Conclusions We urge investigators to carefully consider observation clustering and adapt analytical methods to accommodate the evolving sophistication of surveillance.
