Elite para athletes with active coping behaviour are less likely to report a sports injury.
Br J Sports Med
December 2024
Rehabilitation Medicine Research Group, Department of Health Sciences, Lund University, Lund, Sweden.
Objective: Elite para athletes report a high incidence of sports injuries. Research suggests that athletes' strategies to manage adversities may influence the sports injury risk, but knowledge about para athletes' coping behaviours and their association with injuries is limited. The aim was to describe the distribution of coping behaviours in Swedish elite para athletes by sex, age, impairment, sport and to examine associations between coping behaviours and the probability of reporting a prospective sports injury during a 52-week study period.

Department of Sport Sciences, Miguel Hernández University of Elche, Spain.
Objectives: To explore whether the mean lumbar acceleration is a feasible tool for determining minimum eligibility criteria to compete in cerebral palsy football, differentiating between new sports classes, and to assess the effect of foot contacts on balance evaluation and class distinction.
Design: Cross-sectional study.
Methods: A total of 146 male cerebral palsy footballers classified into FT1 (n=34), FT2 (n=87), and FT3 (n=25), alongside 12 non-impaired athletes as a control group, participated.

Department of Sports Medicine, US Olympic & Paralympic Committee, Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA.
Background: Previous research has reported higher rates of both injury and illness among Paralympic athletes compared with Olympic athletes during the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games, but no studies have directly compared injury and illness incidence between Olympic and Paralympic athletes competing in a Summer Games.
Purpose: To compare injury and illness rates between Olympic and Paralympic Team USA athletes competing in the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Study Design: Descriptive epidemiology study.
Is the cortisol awakening response truly a response to awakening? Replication and extension using overnight sampling.
Eur J Appl Physiol
January 2025
Department of Kinesiology, University of North Carolina at Greensboro, Greensboro, NC, USA.
The cortisol awakening response (CAR) is a discrete component of the circadian cortisol profile. Evidence suggests that the CAR is a deviation from the pre-awakening increase in cortisol concentration, although this has yet to be replicated. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to replicate this finding and to investigate further the extent to which the CAR is distinct from the circadian profile.

January 2025
Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Department of Human Movement Sciences, Amsterdam Movement Sciences and Institute Brain and Behaviour Amsterdam (iBBA), Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Purpose: Understanding the impact of vision impairment on dynamic tasks requiring visual processing is crucial for developing effective adaptive strategies that support individuals with vision impairment in optimizing their performance in natural tasks. This study aimed to establish the gaze patterns used by individuals with vision impairment when hitting a moving target.
Methods: Nineteen tennis players with vision impairment were recruited and their eye and head movements were tracked while they returned tennis serves.
