Spiral fractures of the humerus that occur during throwing, such as in baseball, are not very common but have been well described in orthopedics and sports medicine. They are known to occur by sudden extreme muscular action while throwing balls. I report on a case of spiral fracture of the humerus shaft while pitching in a baseball game with a review of the literature.

Sport related injuries in teenagers can be seen in most organs in the body, but injuries of extremities are most common. The skeletal system of children has not completely matured and varied over age groups, so the histopathological features of injuries are multiple. More efforts are needed to reduce injuries in general and in school students in particular.

This study is aimed to design software to calculate and administer database ‘Sport performance of some Olympic champions’, firstly manage sport performance of 624 Olympic champions in order to calculate their average age. Data was collected by 936 information reports of performance. Results showed that average age of champions was 23.9 years old. This average age was analysed according to continents, countries, and sports

There has been growing movement to need the Sports for the disabled. The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) and National Paralympic Committee (NPC) have been structured more systematically and more specialized. For the detailed understanding of the Sports for the disabled, we reviewed the history, international and national organization, and functional classification systems of the sports for the disabled. The biggest difference compared with able-bodied sports is the classification system by degree of the disability for the fair play. There are 3 major classification systems for physically disabled person and each sports organization has a sports specific classification system. At first, we have to classify using major classification systems and sports specific classification system. The most important thing in the Sports for the disabled is exact classification of the disability before event.

Background: Hamstring strain injury remains persistently high in sports, highlighting the need for additional investigation of its predisposing variables. Despite hamstring injury being well investigated, there’s a lack of studies on changes in echo intensity and shear wave elastography of hamstrings among athletes with a history of injury, which could be considered modifiable risk variables. Objectives: To examine echo intensity and shear wave elastography characteristics of previously injured hamstrings among athletes, assessing the differences between the injured leg and controls. Methods: This systematic review will focus on studies reporting echo intensity and shear wave elastography characteristics of athletes with a history of hamstring strain injury compared to a control group. The search strategy will locate studies written in English from 1990 to 2023 using four electronic databases: PubMed, EBSCO (CINAHL and Medline), Science Direct, and Web of Science. Studies reporting measures using imaging other than ultrasound and where no diagnosis of hamstring strain has been made will be excluded. Two independent reviewers will screen and critically appraise the studies using the McMasters Critical Review Form. Two reviewers will independently extract relevant data and present a descriptive synthesis. A meta-analysis will be conducted when two or more studies provide data for the same outcome measure. Expected Results This review can better understand hamstring maladaptation to injury. Utilizing echo-intensity and shear wave elastography as objective outcome measures can inform clinical practice toward developing an effective rehabilitation program for injury prevention.
