摘要:

In briefTeam physicians are in a unique brief position to counsel athletes about HIV disease and AIDS—they may be the only medical resource that this predominantly healthy group regularly encounters. A team physician who establishes rapport with athletes and has a basic knowledge of the current information on HIV disease and AIDS has a unique opportunity to frankly discuss the issues surrounding HIV transmission, both on and off the field.

摘要:

In briefMRI can prove diagnostically brief useful for a number of osseous injuries that active patients may incur. The authors weigh the benefits of MRI, such as early injury detection and excellent contrast and spatial resolution, versus its shortcomings, such as high cost and sensitivity to motion. In addition, they describe in detail the MRI appearances of stress fractures, bone bruises, occult fractures, and osteochondral fractures.

摘要:

In briefHow—and if—exercise alters immunity is open to debate. Research centers on changes in the number and function of granulocytes and lymphocytes and in levels of immunoglobulins. In general, these immune changes are mixed, mild, and brief. Clinical studies are inconclusive and fraught with confounders, especially the impact of psychological stress. Whether exercise enhances immunity or impairs it may, in fact, depend on whether the exercise is a joy or a stress.

摘要:

In briefMitral valve prolapse (MVP) often brief manifests among active children and adolescents. Techniques for detecting clicks and systolic nonejection murmurs can help physicians identify MVP, and diagnostic tests can help confirm the findings. Tracking the patient's chest pain, palpitations, shortness of breath, and other symptoms can help clinicians decide if treatment should include medication—and if medication helps symptoms. Sometimes, simple reassurance will be enough to ease symptoms. With annual follow-up, patients can lead normal lives, which includes reaping the benefits of physical activity.

摘要:

The following list of professional organizations and resource groups represents the growing diversity in the field of sports medicine. The list also includes government agencies, sports-related groups, and academic centers that are active in tracking sports injuries.Several entries have been updated from the list THE PHYSICIAN AND SPORTSMEDICINE published in January 1992. We have also added five new entries. The list is divided into three sections: 45 sports medicine organizations, 26 groups and committees that generate sports medicine information, and 15 statistics-gathering groups. Some groups appear more than once; they have been cross-referenced in each instance. Entries in each of the three sections have been arranged alphabetically. When appropriate, we have given the names of directors and other officers.While THE PHYSICIAN AND SPORTSMEDICINE does not endorse any of the groups listed, we do encourage readers to contact the ones that interest them. We have included only the essential information about each group; more detailed descriptions can be obtained by calling or writing to the particular group you are interested in.Readers who would like their organization to be added to next year's list should contact THE PHYSICIAN AND SPORTSMEDICINE Organizations Project, 4530 W 77th St, Minneapolis, MN 55435.
