Risk and prevalence of Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (REDs) among professional female football players.

A high prevalence of low energy availability (LEA) has been reported in female football players. This is of concern as problematic LEA may evolve into a syndromic pattern known as relative energy deficiency in sport (REDs). Given the difficulties in accurately assessing LEA, our study shifts emphasis to measurable indicators of REDs, serving as proxies for health detriments caused by LEA.

Expectations of a new eating disorder treatment and its delivery: Perspectives of patients and new therapists.

Background: A significant number of people with bulimia nervosa (BN) or binge-eating disorder (BED) do not seek professional help. Important reasons include limited knowledge of eating disorders (EDs), feelings of shame, treatment costs, and restricted access to specialized healthcare. In this study, we explored if a novel therapy delivered in a primary care setting could overcome these barriers.

What motivates public collaborators to become and stay involved in health research?

Patient and public involvement in health research from researchers' perspective.

Background: Patient and public involvement (PPI) is increasingly considered an integral part of health research, and the focus has shifted from why we need PPI to how users can be involved in a meaningful way. The rationale for investigating experiences with PPI from the perspective of occupational therapy (OT)-trained researchers' originates in the interrelationship between the inclusive approach to knowledge production, and participation and inclusion as core tenets of OT. The aim of this study was to explore PPI in health research from the perspective of OT-trained researchers.

Sexual harassment and abuse; disclosure and awareness of report- and support resources in Norwegian sport- and non-sport high schools: a prospective exploratory study.

Method: Norwegian 17-year-old high school elite athletes ( = 630), recreational athletes ( = 307), and reference students ( = 263) responded to an online questionnaire at two measurement points, 1 year apart (T1 and T2). Leaders and coaches ( = 249) at the participating high schools responded to an adapted version of the questionnaire at T1.

Effectiveness and acceptability of the physical exercise and dietary therapy in a healthy life center.

Objective: The high burden of eating disorders (EDs) and limited availability of treatment speaks of a need to explore new avenues for treatment delivery. To understand if new treatment avenues are helpful and acceptable to patients, we investigated the effectiveness of Physical Exercise and Dietary Therapy (PED-t) in participants with bulimia nervosa or binge-eating disorder, and acceptability when the PED-t was implemented in a Healthy Life Center in a municipal primary healthcare service.

Method: Exercise physiologists and one dietitian were trained in ED literacy and to run PED-t, before screening women for eligibility.

Challenges in using patient involvement principles in substance use treatment.

Background: Health professionals are responsible for implementing patient involvement (PI) in the choice of treatment approach. Previous studies within the field of substance use disorder (SUD) treatment have shown positive patient experiences with PI. However, little is known about challenges experienced by health professionals in converting principles of PI into clinical practice.

Energy expenditure, dietary intake and energy availability in female professional football players.

Objectives: To quantify energy expenditure and intake in professional female footballers playing on a national and/or international level. Second, to determine the prevalence of low energy availability among these players, defined as <30 kcal/kg fat-free mass (FFM)/day.

Methods: Fifty-one players completed a 14-day prospective observational study during the 2021/2022 football season.

Two-year changes in sleep duration are associated with changes in psychological distress in adolescent girls and boys: the fit futures study.

Objective: Studies indicate an inverse association between sleep duration and psychological distress. We aimed to explore associations between changes in sleep duration and changes in psychological distress in girls and boys.

Methods: The Fit Futures Study is a broad adolescent study providing data from 373 girls and 294 boys aged 15-18 years collected in 2010/2011 (FF1) and 2012/2013 (FF2).

Pediatric Interfacility Transport Curriculum: Its Impact on the Pediatric Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine Fellows' Performance and Confidence.

Objective: Pediatric interfacility transports are frequent. Despite the absence of a formal pediatric transport curriculum in eastern Canada, directly managing patients during transport and medical direction of the referring center and transport team are part of the pediatric critical care medicine (PCCM) and pediatric emergency medicine (PEM) program requirements. The authors developed a pediatric interfacility transport curriculum and measured its impact on fellows' confidence and performance.

mHealth Support to Stimulate Physical Activity in Individuals With Intellectual Disability: Protocol for a Mixed Methods Pilot Study.

Background: Several studies have shown that individuals with intellectual disabilities (IDs) have low levels of physical activity (PA), and intervention studies on PA suggest inconsistent evidence. The use of technology as a means of motivation for PA has yet to be extensively explored and needs to be further investigated.

Objective: We aim to assess the feasibility and acceptability of procedures for an intervention arm in a future trial on mobile health (mHealth) to support PA for individuals with IDs.
