Journal ArticleDOI
Where tendons and ligaments meet bone: attachment sites (‘entheses’) in relation to exercise and/or mechanical load
Michael Benjamin,Hechmi Toumi,James Robert Ralphs,Graeme M. Bydder,Thomas M. Best,Stefan Milz +5 more
TL;DR: This review focuses on the structure–function correlations of entheses on both the hard and the soft tissue sides of the junction, and the degenerative, rather than inflammatory, nature of most enthesopathies in sport.
Journal ArticleDOI
Balance as a predictor of ankle injuries in high school basketball players.
TL;DR: Preseason balance measurement (postural sway) served as a predictor of ankle sprain susceptibility in a cohort of high school basketball players to help reduce the risk of these injuries and furthermore save health care costs.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of 2 rehabilitation programs in the treatment of acute hamstring strains.
Marc A. Sherry,Thomas M. Best +1 more
TL;DR: A rehabilitation program consisting of progressive agility and trunk stabilization exercises is more effective than a program emphasizing isolated hamstring stretching and strengthening in promoting return to sports and preventing injury recurrence in athletes suffering an acute hamstring strain.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The current manuscript has been adapted from the official position statement of the UK Strength and Conditioning Association on youth resistance training and has been reviewed and endorsed by leading professional organisations within the fields of sports medicine, exercise science and paediatrics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological and physiological role of reactive oxygen species--the good, the bad and the ugly.
TL;DR: The consequences of high concentrations of molecules that lead to the disruption of redox homeostasis are explained, which induces oxidative stress damaging intracellular components and the regulatory enzymes that mitigate the effects of ROS are covered.
