Article Abstract
Although there are many reported postoperative rehabilitation protocols after arthroscopic Bankart repair, significant variability exists within each protocol, leaving a lack of consensus or standardized evaluation of return to play. As such, criteria-based return to sport protocols have been established in an attempt to normalize the rehabilitation while reducing the recurrence rate after this procedure. This type of protocol has been published with promising results, but validation of the protocol has been difficult. Using the contralateral upper extremity as the "uninjured" extremity has resulted in healthy volunteers failing to pass the criteria on the basis of return to sport testing. Using the contralateral extremity, especially in the upper extremities, may not be the most accurate or appropriate control, however, and additional studies are needed in the search for an objective benchmark to return following arthroscopic Bankart repair.

Comparative analysis of Birmingham hip resurfacing: Minimum 2-year follow-up clinical outcomes in obese vs. non-obese populations.

Background And Objective: With obese individuals experiencing osteoarthritis (OA) at early stages of life, hip resurfacing (HR) has emerged as an alternative to arthroplasty. The purpose is to conduct a short-term analysis on patients with obesity who underwent primary HR for OA compared to a benchmark control group of non-obese patients.
Materials And Methods: Patients with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m2 who underwent HR from 2010 to 2021 were eligible for inclusion.
Haematological adaptations to high-altitude and heat acclimation training in elite male cyclists.

High-altitude training is widely adopted by endurance athletes with the aim of increasing total haemoglobin mass (tHb) and thereby endurance exercise performance. However, divergent effects on tHb and exercise performance have been reported in athletes commencing altitude camps with initial high baseline levels for tHb, questioning the efficacy of in-season interventions in elite athletes. Therefore, haematological adaptations and exercise performance were evaluated in 12 elite cyclists completing an in-season 'Live High-Train High' (LHTH) altitude camp (21 days at 3000 m) immediately after participating in the national championships.

Glenohumeral instability is a common injury affecting contact and collision athletes. Male sex, younger age at time of first dislocation, and contact sports participation are risk factors for recurrent instability. MRI is the gold standard to evaluate soft tissue structures, while CT is beneficial in quantifying glenoid bone loss and identifying on-track and off-track Hill-Sachs lesions.

Bone stress injury is a common musculoskeletal condition presenting with insidious bony pain that is progressive and occurs with a number of intrinsic or extrinsic risk factors, particularly with a recent change in training. When elicited, the presence of bony tenderness remains the most important component of the physical exam, although reproduction at deeper sites is a challenge and requires a high index of suspicion and imaging for diagnosis. MRI should be utilized as the gold standard for diagnosis, grading, and return-to-sport timing prognosis when available, with plain radiographs used as first-line imaging.

Background: Nutrition underpins athletic performance, enhancing training, reducing injury risk, and accelerating recovery. In the event of an injury, performance dietitians (PDs) and nutritionists' (PNs) play a vital role by tailoring nutritional strategies to support tissue repair, optimize athlete's recoveries, and return to play.
Objectives: This study explored nutritional strategies recommended and employed by Irish PDs and PNs to assess, manage, and support athletes during the initial stages of sports-related injuries.
