In briefNasal injuries occur frequently in sports, but most are minor abrasions and contusions. Protective headgear has reduced but not eliminated more serious injuries, such as fractures. Nasal fractures can cause cumulative damage that is both functional and cosmetic. This is particularly significant during adolescence when the nose is growing. A thorough initial examination of the external and internal nose is important because many nasal injuries are underdiagnosed. When treatment of wounds or fractures is based on a sound understanding of the cartilaginous and bony structures of the nose, late complications and reoperation can be avoided.

摘要:

In briefLeisure-time physical activity is associated with a decreased risk of coronary artery disease. This study evaluated the effect of walking the golf course on total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels, and the ratio of TC to HDL-C. Twenty-eight male golfers and 16 male nongolfing controls underwent lipoprotein analysis at the beginning and end of the golf season. The study demonstrates that golf lowers TC and LDL-C levels and improves risk ratios.

摘要:

In briefA high school girl had pain in her right shoulder when she played volleyball. X-rays revealed the cause: diffuse multiple loose calcifications throughout the synovium of the shoulder. The calcifications were removed arthroscopically, and a partial synovectomy of the shoulder joint was performed. The patient's prognosis was considered fair because this disorder can recur; however, it sometimes resolves with no further problems. This disorder—synovial chrondomatosis—is especially rare in young athletes, occurring primarily in middle-aged men, with 60% of cases occurring in the knee.

摘要:

In briefMost injuries to the penis and scrotum in sports result from direct blows and require prompt evaluation. Bicycler's penis is a paresthesia and numbness in the perineum and phallus that resolve spontaneously. A direct blow to the scrotum usually causes a testicular contusion that responds to elevation of the scrotum and bed rest. Athletes wear athletic supporters and plastic cups for scrotal protection. Sexually transmitted diseases—nongonococcal urethritis, condyloma acuminatum, and herpes progenitalis—are common urologic problems in athletes. Patients should use condoms or abstain from sexual activity until the condition resolves.

摘要:

Orthopedists have long debated the best surgical treatment for shoulder instability. Now, new information about the inferior glenohumeral ligament complex has led to improved surgical results for both anterior and posterior instability.

摘要:

Although they seem to call for inhuman strength and endurance, triathlons are not just for Ironmen: Women and seniors are also competitors in the event. But as the remarkably high completion rate of the Iron-man Triathlon World Championship would suggest, there may be something in the event itself that increases the likelihood of success.
