Characterizing multidimensional worst-case scenarios in elite youth basketball
This study investigated multidimensional worst-case scenarios (WCS) in elite youth male and female basketball players. Data were collected from 31 players (male: n = 20; female: n = 11) competing at the French National Institute of Sport across 40 official matches over two consecutive seasons. Player activity was monitored using a 20-Hz Local Positioning System and 100-Hz embedded accelerometers. For each player, match, and time window (10, 30, 6…
Relative age effect and development pathways in French basketball
The relative age effect refers to the advantage experienced by athletes born earlier in the selection year and has been widely documented in youth basketball. However, its influence on long-term development pathways leading to senior elite performance remains insufficiently understood. The aim of this study was to examine the distribution of birth quarters across elite basketball development structures in France and to analyze how relative age re…
Impact of menstrual cycle or combined oral contraception on elite female cyclists' training responses through a clustering analysis of training sessions
Objectives (i) To classify training sessions of elite female cyclists according to an intensity index based on a longitudinal follow-up using multiparametric data collected in situ (ii) to measure the effect of estimated menstrual cycle (MC) phases and oral contraceptive pills (OC) phases on the athletes' training responses on each type of training identified. Method Thirteen elite French cyclists were followed up over 30 months and 5,190 trainin…
Echocardiographic Assessment of Left Ventricular Function 10 Years after the Ultra-Endurance Running Event Eco-Trail de Paris® 2011
Background: Regular and moderate physical activity is beneficial for physical and mental health, resulting in an increase in life expectancy for both sexes. From a cardiovascular point of view, although the benefits of regular moderate physical exercise have been established, the long-term effects of repeated ultra-endurance running events are still unknown. Hypothesis: The aim of our study is to evaluate the 10-year evolution of the parameters o…
Covid-19 Mortality
Context The human development territories have been severely constrained under the Covid-19 pandemic. A common dynamics has been observed, but its propagation has not been homogeneous over each continent. We aimed at characterizing the non-viral parameters that were most associated with death rate. Methods We tested major indices from five domains (demography, public health, economy, politics, environment) and their potential associations with Co…
Body and Boat
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine and weigh the anthropometric indicators that were associated with pacing performances for each Olympic rowing category.Methods: Between 2010 and 2015, 1,148 rowers (650 men and 498 women) participated in the finals of World Championships in each heavyweight Olympic event. They were categorized into four morphological clusters according to their height and body mass index (BMI): tall and thin …
No effect of weight cycling on the post-career BMI of weight class elite athletes
Weight cycling during an athletic career does not induce a massive weight gain after retirement, probably due to the high level of physical activity still practiced after retirement by these athletes
Improving health through policies that promote active travel
Croissance et renoncements
L'augmentation actuelle de la durée de vie peut-elle se poursuivre, et jusqu'où ? Après une progression remarquable qui nous a conduits au seuil des 90 ans, nous allons probablement connaître une stagnation de gain de vie. Cela doit nous inciter à mieux comprendre, d'un point de vue médical, en quoi consiste la vieillesse et comment nous pouvons la prévenir. Mais aussi de nous situer dans l'histoire de l'évolution et vis-à-vis des contraintes de …
