摘要:

In brief: The author saw 16 dancers with a history of dance-related knee injuries that had defied conservative treatment. Arthroscopic examination revealed 15 meniscal tears and four cases of chondromalacia patellae. The meniscal tears were treated by partial arthroscopic meniscectomy and the chondromalacia patellae by shaving, drilling, and debridement of the patella. After surgery the results were rated by means of a physical examination and a patient questionnaire. The results were generally excellent, with 13 of the 16 dancers returning to a preoperative level of dance activity. However, the author stresses the importance of preventing injury by using correct dance technique, wearing knee pads during practice, and avoiding excessively hard floor surfaces.

摘要:

In brief: Anorexia nervosa and bulimia are increasingly common in young athletes. In this discussion a physician, a psychiatrist, a dietitian, and three college coaches review the problem and discuss what coaches can do about it. Treatment of eating disorders is much more effective when they are detected early. Coaches need to know the symptoms and potential consequences of these illnesses and are in an excellent position to detect them and to counsel athletes. In their anxiety to win, coaches must be careful of their athletes' overall health and should not encourage them to try crash weight-loss programs, which often lead to eating disorders.

摘要:

In brief: Training on rebound exercise equipment (minitrampolines) is a popular new approach to aerobic conditioning, but its physiological benefits have been a matter of debate. This study was designed to determine if rebound aerobic dancing is an effective way to improve aerobic capacity and body composition. A group of previously sedentary college women who trained on rebound equipment three times a week for eight weeks showed a 9% increase in max but no significant change in percent body fat. A control group showed no significant changes. The improvement was similar to results produced by conventional aerobic dance programs of like intensity but moderate in comparison to other established forms of aerobic exercise.

摘要:

Whether for aesthetic, athletic, or medical reasons, more and more people want a convenient and reliable method of measuring body fat. Research technologists have responded to the demand with electrical impedance units; physiologists are busy examining those units.
