Abstract:
ObjectivesTo determine the incidence and nature of injuries in the Super Rugby tournament over a 5-year period.Methods482 male professional rugby union players from six South African teams participating in the Super Rugby tournament were studied (1020 player-seasons). Medical staff of participating teams (2012–2016 tournaments) recorded all time loss injuries (total injuries and match injuries) and exposure hours (93 641 total playing hours; 8032 match hours). Injury incidence, injured player proportion, severity (time lost), anatomical location, tissue type and activity/phase during which injury occurred are reported.ResultsThe overall incidence of match injuries (per 1000 player-hours; 95% CI) for each year was as follows: 2012 (83.3; 69.4–99.2); 2013 (115.1; 98.7–133.5); 2014 (95.9; 80.8–113.1), 2015 (112.3; 96.6–129.9) and 2016 (93.2; 79.9–107.9). The injured player proportion for each year was as follows: 2012 (54.6%); 2013 (49.4%); 2014 (52.0%); 2015 (50.0%); and 2016 (39.8%). The thigh, knee, head/face and shoulder/clavicle are the most frequently injured locations, and muscle/tendon and joint/ligament injuries account for the majority of injuries. Most injuries (79%) occur in contact situations, in particular during a tackle (54%).ConclusionThe incidence of match injuries and the injured player proportion in South African teams competing in the Super Rugby tournament is high. Match injury incidence is consistently higher than previously reported for senior male rugby players at elite/professional level. Targeted risk management strategies are therefore needed in the Super Rugby tournament to manage risk of injury.

Abstract:
Epidemiological research on soccer injuries during African soccer competition is sparse. This study was conducted among 12 teams in the Council of East and Central Africa Football Association (CECAFA) challenge cup tournament. Fifty-seven injuries were reported (2.7 injuries per match), or 82.25 injuries per 1,000 match hours. The ankle was most often injured (23%). The majority (81%) of injuries occurred as a result of traumatic contact, with the most injuries occurring in the last 30 min of the match. A majority (84%) of athletes who sustained injuries continued to play. African medical personnel should be trained to handle the unique constraints and variety of injuries sustained during soccer competition.

Abstract:
AbstractThe aim of the present study was to assess prospectively the effect of pre-season fitness on injury rate during the competitive season among professional soccer players. Thirty-one players participated in the study during two consecutive competitive seasons (2015–16 and 2016–17; a squad of 22 players in each season). During the 6-week pre-season training period (8 training sessions and a friendly match every week, 14–18 training hours/week) there was a significant improvement in VO2 max, a significant increase in ideal and total sprint time and no change in vertical jump, flexibility and repeated sprint-test performance decrement. During the two consecutive seasons, 28 injuries were recorded. Ten injuries were classified as mild (missing 3–7 days of practice/match), 8 as moderate (missing 8–28 days) and 10 as severe (missing >28 days). The rate of match injuries was higher (9.4 per 1000 match hours) compared to practice injuries (4.7 per 1000 training hours). Most injuries were overuse injuries (72%) of the lower limbs (71%). Most of match injuries occurred during the last 15 min of each half. There were no differences in fitness characteristics in the beginning of pre-season training between injured and non-injured players. However, improvements in VO2 max during the pre-season training period were significantly lower among injured players (0.9±5.5%) compared to non-injured players (10.4±6.5%, p<0.05). Our results emphasize the importance of pre-season training in professional soccer players not only for improvement in fitness but also for injury prevention during the following competitive season.

Abstract:
Background: Touch (rugby/football) is a minimal contact sport for which the type and incidence of injuries remains unknown in Europe. Objectives: To establish the incidence, severity and nature of injuries sustained during a four-day European Touch Championship competition. Methods: A prospective cohort design was adopted to record match-related injuries during the European Touch Championships 2016. Injuries were collected from five countries and classified using the Orchard Sports Injury Classification (OSICS-10). Data were combined from all participating countries and injury incidence was recorded as number of injuries/1000 player hours. Results: A total of 135 injuries were recorded during the tournament with injury incidence calculated as 103.5 injuries per 1000 player match hours. Injuries were mainly recorded as transient (76%) occurring most frequently in the lower limb (69%). Injuries occurred more frequently on successive days, with exception to the final day of the tournament. The number of injuries was not different between the first and second half of matches and there was no relationship between the day of the tournament and the half of the match that injury occurred. Conclusion: Match injury incidence was 103.5 injuries per 100 player match hours. The most injured site was that of the lower limb, with the most common injury type reported as muscle/tendon injury. It is postulated that fatigue plays a role in injury incidence during a multiday tournament.

Abstract:
Background: The injury rate in professional soccer players may be influenced by match frequency. Purpose: To assess how changes in match frequency that occurred because of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) influenced training and match injuries in the Italian Serie A league. Study Design: Descriptive epidemiology study. Methods: Three phases in the Serie A league, each 41 days long, were evaluated: phase A was the beginning of the 2019-2020 season; phase B was a period after the COVID-19 lockdown was lifted, when the remaining matches of the season were played with greater frequency; and phase C was the beginning of the 2020-2021 season. All male professional soccer players who were injured during the 3 phases were included. Player age, height, position, injury history, and return to play (RTP) were retrieved from a publicly available website. Training- and match-related injuries during each of the 3 phases were collected and compared. Moreover, match injuries that occurred after the lockdown phase (phase B), in which there were 12 days designated for playing matches (“match-days”), were compared with injuries in the first 12 match-days of phases A and C. Results: When comparing 41-day periods, we observed the injury burden (per 1000 exposure-hours) was significantly lower in phase B (278.99 days absent) than in phase A (425.4 days absent; P < .05) and phase C (484.76 days absent; P < .05). A longer mean RTP period was recorded in phase A than in phase B (44.6 vs 23.1 days; P < .05). Regarding 12–match day periods (81 days in phase A, 41 days in phase B, and 89 days in phase C), there was a significantly higher match injury rate (0.56 vs 0.39 injuries/1000 exposure-hours; P < .05) and incidence (11.8% vs 9.3%; P < .05) in phase B than in phase A and a longer mean RTP period in phase A than in phase B (41.8 vs 23.1 days; P < .05). Finally, the rate and incidence of training-related injuries were significantly higher in phase B (4.6 injuries/1000 exposure-hours and 6.5, respectively) than in phase A (1.41 injuries/1000 exposure-hours and 2.04, respectively) ( P < .05). Conclusion: Both training- and match-related injuries were greater during the abbreviated period after the COVID-19 lockdown. These may be linked to the greater match frequency of that period.

Abstract:
AimTo study the association between player characteristics, technical components of the game and the risk of match injuries during the 2017 Men’s Handball World Championship.MethodsTeam physicians of the participating teams (n=24) were requested to provide injury report forms throughout the Men’s Handball World Championship (France, January 2017). The individual time played, age, number of international matches played and all technical and penalty variables for each player were extracted from the official International Handball Federation (IHF) online database and used as risk factors in a general logistic linear model analysis.ResultsOf 387 players, 49 sustained one or more injuries (93 injuries in total). The total incidence of match injuries was 82.1 injuries per 1000 hours (95% CI 66.2 to 100.5), non-time-loss injury incidence was 40.6 injuries per 1000 hours (95% CI 29.3 to 54.9), while time-loss injury incidence was 30.9 injuries per 1000 hours (95% CI 21.5 to 42.9). Multivariate analysis showed that age (OR 1.1, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.18, p=0.011), player position (backs: OR 6.79, 95% CI 2.25 to 20.54, p=0.001; goalkeepers: OR 5.03, 95% CI 1.15 to 21.94, p=0.031) and 2 min suspensions (1–2 times: OR 2.77, 95% CI 1.27 to 6.04, p=0.011; 3 or more times: OR 2.66, 95% CI 1.18 to 6.38, p=0.029) were significant risk factors for getting injured during competition matches.ConclusionAge, player position (backs, goalkeepers) and 2 min suspensions were associated with match injury. Stricter rule enforcement should be considered to prevent match injuries in elite handball.

Objective: To describe the injury rate, severity, cause, anatomical location (tissue damaged), recurrence, place and time during matches throughout a season in the Spanish Rugby Union Division de Honor. Methods: Observational, prospective and descriptive study conducted in the competition of the Spanish División de Honor de Rugby with 258 players. The data were reported by the medical services of the previously formed clubs. Results: Total exposure was 4100 h, during which 220 injuries occurred. The average number of sick days was 35.6. The total injury rate was 53.6 injuries/1000 h of exposure. Three quarters suffered 93 injuries and the forwards sustained a total of 127 injuries, with a total of 48.6 and 58.1 injuries/1000 h of exposure, respectively. Moderate injuries were the most frequent. Specifically, ligament injury was the most frequent, and dislocation was the injury that caused the most sick days. The most injuries occurred in the third quarter of the match, and the most serious injuries occurred in the second quarter. Conclusions: The injury rate of Spanish rugby competitors is 53.6 injuries/1000 match hours, with an average of 36.8 sick days. Contact injuries are the most frequent, taking place especially when tackling or being tackled.

Abstract:
Karate is one of the most popular sport. It belongs to contact martial arts, which causes a number of injuries. Injuries do not occur only during the match; they mostly occur during training, warm-up, or training of techniques or situations. Factors that affect the incidence of injuries are many, whether it is age, gender, experience of the athlete, weight, physical fitness, or mental state of the athlete. The most common areas of the body injured are face and head, lower extremities, the trunk, upper extremities. Awareness of coaches and athletes about injuries in their treatment and prevention will help reduce the incidence of injuries in karate, as well as in other sports.

Abstract:
Includes bibliographical references
Background: The influence of professionalism has filtered down to junior levels in rugby union. The increased demands on junior professional rugby players has an impact on their fitness characteristics, training load, match load and injury profiles. Although many studies have been conducted on senior rugby union players, not much is known about junior players as they make the transition into the senior ranks. The aim of this study was to describe the training/match load during the pre-season and competitive in-season in a squad of under 19 academy rugby players and then to relate this to the injuries (contact and non-contact) sustained during the different phases of the season. A secondary aim was to measure the physical ability of the players through the season. Methods: Injury and training data from players in the Western Province under 19 Currie Cup squad (n=34) were recorded on a daily basis throughout the rugby season (42 weeks). The training load was represented by the time (minutes) spend in each activity associated with training, conditioning and match play. The players also underwent measurements of body mass, stature, body fat percentage, upper body muscular endurance (pull ups), and muscular strength (1RM bench press), sprint times (10m and 40m) and anaerobic capacity (5 meter shuttle run). All tests were conducted in January and June, which coincided with the beginning of pre-season and the beginning of the competition phase respectively. Results: Over the season 71 injuries were recorded, comprising 17 pre-season injuries, 18 pre-competition injuries and 36 competition phase injuries. There was no difference between the occurrence of contact and non-contact injuries during the different phases of the season. Although there was no significant difference between the injury rates during the different phases of the season, there was a significant difference between the injury rates in training (4.4/1000 player hours) and matches (74.1/1000 player hours). The most common body parts injured were thighs, hip/groin, ankles and shoulders, with injuries to the hand/finger and knee being the most severe. Muscles and ligaments were the structures that got injured the most. The average duration of days to return-to-play after an injury was 17 days. There were significant changes in the physical characteristics of the players in the six months between the test batteries. In addition to getting taller, players generally improved their fitness characteristics with significant improvements occurring in the bench press (8%), pull ups (113%), vertical jump (13%) and the 5 meter shuttle run (6%). Conclusion: The training load of the junior professional rugby players is similar to the load of senior professional rugby players. This represents a sudden increase compared to the previous year when the players were at school. A long-term research project with a database of rugby schools will assist in bridging the gap between the demands of junior rugby and junior professional rugby. Players joining a professional academy system after school need physical, emotional and tactical fast tracking as they are competing in a highly competitive environment for senior professional contracts. This accounts for the relatively high rate of injury throughout the season. Players need to be carefully monitored and managed during the season to detect symptoms reflecting poor adaptation to the training load.

AbstractFor many decades, road safety measures in Australia focused almost exclusively on behavioral approaches. When Claes Tingvall was appointed Director of MUARC, he introduced the concept of “Vision Zero” to Australia and, with it, the “Safe System” approach. While political leaders initially regarded a vision for zero deaths as unachievable, they supported the inherent logic of the Safe System.Initially the Safe System was applied as four independent pillars. While this lack of integration had limitations, it did enable road safety measures to move beyond road user behavior to focus more on safer road infrastructure and vehicle safety.The initial Safe System approach became “Towards Zero” an approach that accepts humans are fragile, and the road system designed to protect from death or serious injury was adopted across all Australia jurisdictions between 2004 and 2018.Public education has been used to introduce and explain Towards Zero and bring greater attention to the importance of purchasing a safe vehicle. Infrastructure investment has moved from a “blackspot” approach to the Safe System approach. However, shifting community and decision-makers’ understanding of the importance of speed limits being set to match the safety standard and design of a road remains a challenge. Future opportunities involve better integration of the components of the Safe System, focusing on serious injuries and improving strategy delivery, performance reporting, management, and accountability.

Abstract:
Major burn injuries affect every organ system and present challenges for every aspect of perioperative anaesthetic care. Although anaesthetists possess skills and experience that match the needs of these critically ill patients, perioperative decisions require consideration of unique pathophysiological changes associated with large burns along with knowledge of predictable technical challenges. Careful preoperative evaluation and preparation is critical. Initial care of patients with inhalation injury may involve management of difficult airways including bronchoscopic examination. Preoperative evaluation requires understanding of fluid resuscitation of burns. Adequate planning for perioperative care also depends on close preoperative communication with ICU staff and surgeons. Intraoperative care should be compatible with ICU course and goals, while anaesthetic choices such as monitors, vascular access and blood products are determined by the surgical plan. Impaired thermoregulation in burn patients requires attention to equipment and conditions in the operative theatre.

Abstract:
The muscle on your frame is a prime indicator of health and longevity. Dr. Paul Terpeluk with the Cleveland Clinic has stated that muscular strength is the new vital sign of workplace health and safety. Research studies focusing on Type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, musculo-skeletal injuries, certain cancers and the delay of dementia have shown a strong correlation between disease prevention and muscular strength. IPCS’ database of over 500,000 strength tests have shown a workers’ absolute strength today is at least 14% weaker than the worker 15 years ago and weighs about 8 pounds more. Over the last 10 years, there has been a significant shift by 52% with an increase in the number of workers with a BMI of 35 or greater. The Cleveland Clinic implemented a new hire muscular strength assessment to place new hire applicants into jobs that match their physical capability in 2011. The outcomes show a statistically significant reduction in number of employee health, pharmacy and workers’ compensation claims and costs with overall savings near $25 million. Musculo-skeletal health of the worker can be improved. When a worker maintains good muscular strength, the worker is more productive, has fewer medical claims and workers’ compensation claims.

Abstract:
Abstract Community practice is dependent upon our vision of what community means. If we place it at the center of these efforts, then institutions, such as hospitals and others, are there to serve communities, rather than the other way around. Community practice is labor intensive. The slogan “bottom-up” ascends in importance in community practice, translating into a goal of bringing together diverse resident groups in pursuit of a common goal. Community practice is predicated upon an ecological foundation, with relationships forming the glue allowing what appear as disparate elements to pursue a common agenda. We have marching orders that respect different gun injury foci and roles because there is no single path. It is a journey with detours and temporary setbacks, but one worth taking nevertheless. For some of us it means taking a stance at an agency or community level. Others approach this journey from a research, policy, or scholarly standpoint. Further, these roles are not mutually exclusive. Regardless of the role we take, we need others to join us in this march on ending gun violence and corresponding injuries to individuals, families, communities, and the nation.

Southern Cameroonians stage protest marches because of their low or negative social status identity comparative to their French-speaking compatriot. This produces a negative perception of themselves: that of a marginalized people which is a negative or a low social identity. Accordingly, they try to change this situation by mobilizing their members for a protest march as it was on the 22nd September and 1st October, 2017 and their clamor for absolute independence is much clearer today than before. They have therefore constructed a collective identity with a common goal and an emotional bond of organizing protest marches, lockdowns and executing the weekly ghost towns among other. The shared goal of the Anglophone is different from that of the Francophone while one is protesting against the form of state and the protection of their English culture, the other is protesting against a change of government or better governance. In each protest, law enforcement officers brutalized, injured, harassed, seized and destroyed their phones, barred some from joining the demonstrations and dispersed them ruthlessly by violently repressing them, using teargas as well as shooting live bullets on the crowds. While southern Cameroonians share a collective identity and massively organize protest marches, their French-speaking compatriots have conflicting interests and low protest march participation.

Abstract:
Medicine is often unprepared for the physical and psychological wounds of modern war. Military medicine requires urgent research to treat traumatic brain injury, develop resuscitation techniques, upgrade surgical procedures, and acquire effective drugs. Retrospective, observational, and survey studies dominate the literature. However, clinically controlled experimental studies, the gold standard of medical research, are rare in military medicine. Stringent informed consent requirements to protect service members from coercion and undue influence make it difficult to enlist them for in-theater clinical studies. When a research subject is unconscious and his representative is unavailable to give consent, investigators can request waivers. But due to concerns about patient vulnerability, waivers are rarely granted to allow researchers to recruit injured soldiers in the field. Easing informed consent requirements to match those of civilian medical research, and intensifying efforts to recruit civilian research subjects during war will improve the prospects of clinical research.

Full text
Abstract:
Traumatic dental injuries are emergencies that must be treated promptly and properly to reduce the suffering, costs, and time for patients and parents. However, since the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak was declared a pandemic on March 11, 2020, most dental care facilities in the affected countries have been completely closed or have been only providing emergency treatment. This can partly be a result of the lack of universal protocol or guidelines regulating the dental care provision during such a pandemic, especially in the management of dental trauma. This lack of guidelines has the potential to both promote the spread of nosocomial COVID-19 through oral health care facilities and deny people in need of immediate treatment. Moreover, ceasing dental care provision during such a period will incense the burden on hospitals’ emergency departments that are already struggling with the pandemic. Therefore, this chapter elaborates on the importance of early management of dental trauma by sharing local guidelines and experience with a proposed algorithm for the early management of dental trauma during the emergence of COVID-19.

Abstract:
The campaign in the Punjab saw Alexander, supported by his Indian ally Taxiles, attack Porus, who lived beyond the Hydaspes River. The battle, at the beginning of the monsoon season, involved a division of the Macedonian forces. One part faced Porus at the river crossing, where the current and the elephants in the Indian army made a direct attack virtually impossible. Alexander took a portion of his army and marched upstream. Once across the river, he drew Porus away from his defensive position and defeated the Indian ruler in a battle fought primarily by cavalry, although the Macedonian pikemen inflicted injuries on the elephants, which became a danger to their own troops. After the Hydaspes victory, Alexander advanced to the Hyphasis (Beas), where the army refused to cross in order to march to the Ganges. The whole episode was contrived, since Alexander clearly had no intention of going farther east. His failure to reach the eastern end of the world was thus attributed to the timidity and war-weariness of his soldiers. During the descent of the Indus river system, Alexander received a near-fatal wound at the hands of the Mallians. Once he recovered, Alexander conducted a series of bloody massacres as he sailed to the mouth of the Indus and accomplished his goal of sailing out into the ocean. Although the Indian campaign was by far the bloodiest of the expedition, there was little long-term gain from the conquest.

Abstract:
The occurrence and risk of recurrence of brain related injuries and diseases are difficult to characterize due to various factors including inter-individual variability. A useful approach is to analyze the brain electroencephalogram (EEG) for differences in brain frequency bands in the signals obtained from potentially injured and healthy normal subjects. However, significant shortcomings include: (1) contrary to empirical evidence, current spectral signal analysis based methods often assume that the EEG signal is linear and stationary; (2) nonlinear time series analysis methods are mostly numerical and do not possess any predictive features. In this work, we develop models based on stochastic differential equations that can output signals with similar frequency and magnitude characteristics of the brain EEG. Initially, a coupled linear oscillator model with a large number of degrees of freedom is developed and shown to capture the characteristics of the EEG signal in the major brain frequency bands. Then, a nonlinear stochastic model based on the Duffing oscillator with far fewer degrees of freedom is developed and shown to produce outputs that can closely match the EEG signal. It is shown that such a compact nonlinear model can provide better insight into EEG dynamics through only few parameters, which is a step towards developing a framework with predictive capabilities for addressing brain injuries.

Abstract:
On September 27, 2004 Andy Roddick hit the current world record 155 mph serve in his Davis Cup match against Belarus, which set him up with three match points against Vladimir Voltchkov. By that time, at 22 years of age, Roddick had broken his own speed record for the third time. In tennis, like in almost all other high performance sports, professional athletes tend to reach their peak performance at a much younger age than they used to several decades ago. Accordingly, athletes have to start full-time practice in their early childhood that strongly overlaps with the period of skeletal and muscular development. It is the responsibility of their coaches and physicians to design efficient training programs targeted at maximal performance and minimal risk of injury. Biomechanics can play a crucial role in supporting the design of these training strategies. By predicting the functional adaptation of bones and muscles, biomechanics simulation can help to explain and eventually prevent common forms of injuries caused by chronic overuse.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Introduction. As a sport to which more and more young people are turning to, Karate, and especially its most prominent martial art associated injuries, is gaining more and more importance in our present. Unfortunately, little is known about the kinematic characteristics while performing Mae-Geri front kick Shotokan Karate. Special emphasis will be placed on the goal of this fighting technique - more skillful control and effective use of body segments by well-trained fighters will allow maximum acceleration and reaching the adversary both faster and yet-in controlled fashion, without the risk of the injury of both participants in the match The aim of this study will be to compare the kinematic characteristics of the lower limbs when performing a specific fighting technique (Mae-Geri kick) by Karate athletes from two different groups according to rank/sports experience, in relation to the sustained traumatism. Methods and methodology of the study. For this purpose, a kinematic analysis was performed by video registration (with a digital camera Casio ZR 200 with a frame rate of 120 frames/sec) and subsequent image processing of the video to measure kinematic parameters with a software product (SkilSpector). In our initial experiment, 18 of the 22 Karate fighters belonged to two distinct groups (9 black belts from I and II dan, and 9 from 1 to 3 kyu). Results and analysis. According to our comparative analysis, we can assume that the Bulgarian Karate athletes are: both on equal grounds based on kinematic characteristics of the Mae-Geri front kick execution, yet also leading their international counterparts in terms of lower frequency of traumatic injuries in key regions of the body and types of injuries. In turn, the resulting increase in injuries in the group of high-performance athletes (1-3) kyu is mainly explained by the increase in self-confidence, executing riskier attacks with higher chances of interception and resulting in injury by their adversary, allowing our Bulgarian elite Karate fighters to stand out (from I dan and up) for which this type of injury is mostly exception.

Abstract:
Abstract Rib fractures and chest flail injuries are life threatening injuries that often require surgical treatment using metal (e.g. titanium) fracture reconstruction plates and screws. Current implant designs do not account for the variable stiffness present in human ribs and are much stiffer than the native bone, causing undesirable clinical outcomes. In this preliminary study, groups of latticed test plates were designed with a body centered cubic (BCC) lattice and porosities ranging from 36–86%. Porosity was altered by changing lattice strut thickness between 0.225–0.425 mm and unit cell length between 1, 2, and 3 mm. The test plates were fabricated using an established laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing process. Flexural strength (4-point bending) tests were performed at a strain rate of 1.3 mm/min to characterize changes in bending stiffness and strength. It was found that implant stiffness could be decreased by 15.7% (p = 0.068) by decreasing strut thickness from 0.425 to 0.225 mm and increasing unit cell length from 1 to 3 mm. The results of this preliminary experiment serve as guidelines for the design of full-sized rib fracture reconstruction plates that contain a gradient lattice with varied mechanical properties to better match the behavior of intact ribs.

Abstract:
Abstract Lifting heavy weight is one of the main reasons for manual material handling related injuries which can be mitigated by determining the limiting lifting weight of a person. In this study, a 40 degrees of freedom (DOFs) spatial skeletal model was employed to predict the symmetric maximum weight lifting motion. The lifting problem was formulated as a multi-objective optimization (MOO) problem to minimize the dynamic effort and maximize the box weight. An inverse-dynamics-based optimization approach was used to determine the optimal lifting motion and the maximum lifting weight considering dynamic joint strength. The predicted lifting motion, ground reaction forces (GRFs), and maximum box weight were shown to match well with the experimental results. It was found that for the three-dimensional (3D) symmetric lifting the left and right GRFs were not same.
