Plasma Biomarker Concentrations Associated With Return to #Sport Following Sport-Related #Concussion in Collegiate Athletes—A Concussion Assessment, Research, and Education (CARE) Consortium Study

Identifying plasma biomarkers associated with the amount of time an athlete may need before they return to sport (RTS) following a sport-related concussion (SRC) is important because it may help to improve the health and safety of athletes.. A total of 3 plasma biomarkers (ie, total tau protein, glial fibrillary acidic protein [GFAP], and neurofilament… Continue reading Plasma Biomarker Concentrations Associated With Return to #Sport Following Sport-Related #Concussion in Collegiate Athletes—A Concussion Assessment, Research, and Education (CARE) Consortium Study

Does chronic high-intensity #endurance training have an effect on cardiovascular markers of active populations and athletes? Systematic review and meta-analysis

There was significant improvement in high-density with weighted standardised mean difference and effect size=−1.06 (−1.83 to −0.30), p=0.006. We have also observed a significant reduction in low-density lipoprotein and total cholesterol with weighted standardised mean difference and effect size=−0.97 (−1.58 to −0.36), p=0.002, and = −0.78 (−1.34 to −0.22), p=0.007, respectively. There was a… Continue reading Does chronic high-intensity #endurance training have an effect on cardiovascular markers of active populations and athletes? Systematic review and meta-analysis
