IOC consensus statement on relative energy deficiency in sport (RED-S): 2018 update.
Margo Mountjoy,Jorunn Sundgot-Borgen,Louise M. Burke,Kathryn E. Ackerman,Cheri A. Blauwet,Naama Constantini,Constance M. Lebrun,Bronwen Lundy,Anna K. Melin,Nanna L. Meyer,Roberta Sherman,Adam S. Tenforde,Monica Klungland Torstveit,Richard Budgett +13 more
TL;DR: The IOC RED-S consensus authors have reconvened to provide an update summary of the interim scientific progress in the field of relative energy deficiency with the ultimate goal of stimulating advances inRED-S awareness, clinical application and scientific research to address current gaps in knowledge.

Journal ArticleDOI
The LEAF questionnaire: a screening tool for the identification of female athletes at risk for the female athlete triad
Anna K. Melin,Åsa Tornberg,Sven O. Skouby,Jens Faber,Christian Ritz,Anders Sjödin,Jorunn Sundgot-Borgen +6 more
TL;DR: The LEAF-Q is brief and easy to administer, and relevant as a complement to existing validated DE screening instruments, when screening female athletes at risk for the Triad, in order to enable early detection and intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy availability and the female athlete triad in elite endurance athletes
Anna K. Melin,Åsa Tornberg,Sven O. Skouby,S. S. Moller,Jorunn Sundgot-Borgen,Jens Faber,Johannes Jakobsen Sidelmann,Mubeena Aziz,Anders Sjödin +8 more
TL;DR: Conclusively, athletes with low/reduced EA and/or MD had lowered RMR, and the high prevalence of ED, MD, and impaired bone health emphasizes the importance of prevention, early detection, and treatment of energy deficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pitfalls of Conducting and Interpreting Estimates of Energy Availability in Free-Living Athletes
TL;DR: Although EA estimates are being used to guide and monitor athletic practices, as well as support a diagnosis of Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport, problems associated with the measurement and interpretation of EA in the field should be explored.
