Sibling comparisons, sibling relationship quality, and perceived sport competence in young athletes. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • The study explores how siblings influence each other in youth sports, focusing on comparisons in skills and the quality of their relationships.* -
  • Researchers examined 47 sibling pairs to determine how the tendency to compare abilities relates to perceived competence in sports, particularly among younger siblings.* -
  • Findings indicate that younger siblings who often compare themselves with their older siblings and feel a warm relationship report higher confidence in their sports abilities.*

Article Abstract

Siblings are overlooked, yet potentially meaningful social agents in youth sport. To better understand the role of siblings in youth sport, we examined the association between sibling sport-referenced comparisons, relationship qualities, and perceived sport competence. The tendency to make sibling comparisons was expected to be positively related to sport competence perceptions and this association was further expected to be moderated by markers of sibling relationship quality. Participants were 47 sport-involved sibling dyads that included older siblings (25 female, 22 male, M = 10.94 ± 1.49 yrs) who were predominately first-born children (83%) and their younger siblings (23 female, 24 male participants, M = 8.45 ± 1.01 yrs) who were mostly second-born children (79%). Participants completed established assessments of comparison tendency, sibling relationship qualities, and sport competence perceptions. Analyses revealed a three-way interaction between birth position (younger or older sibling), tendency to compare, and sibling warmth predicting sport competence (p < .05). Younger siblings with a greater tendency to make sibling comparisons and higher warmth perceptions reported higher sport competence perceptions. The findings suggest that sibling-based comparisons and relational warmth may be salient for younger siblings in gauging their competence, whereas older siblings utilize alternative sources of competence information.

Idiopathic scoliosis is a postural deformity of the spine that not only changes the shape of the spine but may also alter postural control and muscle strength. Although this deformity is more common in some sports, it is not known whether the scoliosis athlete's balance and strength are altered. Balance and strength are essential to perform complex technical movements and prevent injuries.

Background And Aims: Interest in repairing ruptured anterior cruciate ligaments (ACL) has resurged, with suture tape augmentation (internal brace, ACL-IB) emerging as a prominent technique. However, the efficacy of ACL-IB compared to ACL reconstruction (ACL-R) remains unclear. We conducted a meta-analysis to address this gap.

Background: The shoulder girdle and proximal humerus are common sites for neoplastic lesions be it benign or malignant. We aimed to evaluate the outcomes of a frugal method of reconstruction of the proximal humerus for neoplastic lesions at short to medium term follow-up.

Methods: Data for this retrospective case series was collected from an electronic data base held at the primary authors institution.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common type of sleep apnea, which leads to episodes of intermittent hypoxia due to obstruction of the upper airway. A key feature of OSA is the upregulation and stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1), a crucial metabolic regulator that facilitates rapid adaptation to changes in oxygen availability. Adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR), a major adenosine receptor, regulates HIF-1 under hypoxic conditions, exerting anti-inflammatory properties and affecting lipid metabolism.

Musculoskeletal disorders are a series of diseases involving bone, muscle, cartilage, and tendon, mainly caused by chronic strain, degenerative changes, and structural damage due to trauma. The disorders limit the function of patients due to pain and significantly reduce their quality of life. In recent years, adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells have been extensively applied in regeneration medicine research due to their particular abilities of self-renewal, differentiation, and targeted homing and are more easily accessed compared with other sources.
