Published: December 1999

Our aim was to conduct an epidemiological study in order to better assess the frequency of maxillo-facial sport injuries. Only those activities that are practised within a sport or game association are included in the study. A standard letter was sent to all French sport and game associations (Olympic or not) as well as to some major insurance companies (73 sport and game associations and 11 insurance companies). However the scope of the study rapidly proved limited since over the two-month period considered only 16 sport associations and one insurance company returned an answer. The exploitable results are presented and a brief overview of the recent relevant international studies is given.

Objective: Guardian Caps (GCs) have been widely implemented at all levels of American football participation based on laboratory evidence that they may reduce head impact forces. The purpose of this study was to determine if GC use during practice was associated with a lower risk of sport-related concussion (SRC) during practices and games among high school football players.

Methods: Data were collected on 2610 athletes from 41 Wisconsin schools that self-selected into GC or Non-GC cohorts.

Purpose: To investigate technical regulation mechanisms of long-distance swimmers that differentiate optimal pacing strategies and the underlying kinematic parameters.

Methods: Twenty-one national and international swimmers were equipped with a sacrum-worn inertial measurement unit performed during 5000-m indoor French championships. Percentage of critical swimming speed (CSS), stroke rate, stroke length, jerk cost, stroke index, and mechanical proficiency score were computed by lap.

: Asymptomatic patellar tendon abnormality (APTA) is considered a precursor to patellar tendinopathy (PT), but its pathogenesis remains unclear, especially regarding changes in muscle coordination. Therefore, it is essential to explore the muscle synergy patterns in individuals with APTA. This study recorded sEMG data during stop-jump tasks in 8 APTA and 8 healthy amateur male basketball players in a simulated basketball game.
