Background: Global reports indicate that less than 20% of 11-17-year-olds meet physical activity recommendations, and while organized sports participation increases the likelihood of meeting these guidelines, no other studies were found that examined the impact on well-being and physical fitness outcomes among Danish adolescents based on participation in leisure time sports.

Methods: The study employed a cross-sectional design, assessing cardiorespiratory fitness, fat percentage, and well-being, as well as several other health and fitness outcomes among 1,333 Danish adolescents (50% girls). Differences between participants in organized sports and non-participants, as well as between participants in different sport categories were assessed through ANCOVA analysis.

Post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) is a degenerative joint disease triggered by trauma or intense mechanical stress, leading to joint cartilage degeneration and functional impairment. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) contributes significantly to cartilage degradation following mechanical injury by activating its receptor, Prostaglandin E receptor 4 (EP4), on chondrocyte membranes. The homeostasis of articular cartilage primarily relies on the dynamic balance between cartilage degradation and repair, a process finely regulated by chondrocytes.
