Reported use of anti-asthmatic medication in doping control forms from 2015 to 2019 – mapping retrospective data
Objectives Asthma and bronchial hyperresponsiveness is common in athletes, particularly in sports with high ventilatory demands or exposure to irritants such as cold, dry air, polluted air, or trichloramines. The mechanisms behind asthma in athletes remain unclear, but repeated high-volume ventilation and exposures to irritants, as well as airway inflammation and remodelling likely contribute. Symptoms resemble those of asthma, and airway hyperre…
Strategic priorities and barriers to an effective anti-doping programme: Views and opinions of European Nado leaders
National Anti-Doping Organizations (NADOs) play significant role in implementing the World Anti-Doping Code, yet little empirical research exists regarding their strategic priorities and perceptions about national and global anti-doping measures. This study explored the views of European NADO leaders on key areas for improving anti-doping programmes, perceived deterrent factors, and operational challenges. An online survey was distributed to 34 N…
Anti-doping measures in gyms and fitness centres: A mapping of practices in the state parties of the council of Europe’s anti-doping convention
The use of image and performance enhancement drugs (doping) in recreational sport presents an emerging public health challenge, but there is scarce research on current preventive measures. The present research was concerned with mapping and analysing anti-doping measures in gyms and fitness centres in countries that are State Parties to the Anti-Doping Convention of the Council of Europe. Using the Anti-Doping Questionnaire of the Council of Euro…
The purpose and effectiveness of doping testing in sport
Maintaining an effective testing program is critical to the success and credibility of the anti-doping movement. However, a low detection ratio compared to the assumed real prevalence of sport doping has led some to question and criticize the effectiveness of the current testing system. In this perspective article, we review the results of the global testing program, discuss the purpose of testing, and compare benefits and limitations of performa…
Use of pharmaceuticals amongst athletes tested by Anti-Doping Norway in a five-year period
Introduction The aim of the study was to map the use of pharmaceuticals by Norwegian athletes registered on doping control forms (DCFs) in a five-year period to examine general and some class specific use of pharmaceuticals across sports and athlete levels. Method Anonymous data from DCFs collected in 2015-2019 were manually entered into a database using the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) system for classification of the pharmaceuticals. V…
Ten years of collecting hematological athlete biological passport samples—perspectives from a National Anti-doping Organization
The hematological module of the Athlete Biological Passport (ABP) aims to reveal blood doping indirectly by looking at selected biomarkers of doping over time. For Anti-Doping Organizations (ADOs), the ABP is a vital tool in the fight against doping in sports through improved target testing and analysis, investigations, deterrence, and as indirect evidence for use of prohibited methods or substances. The physiological characteristics of sport dis…
Dietary Supplements as a Major Cause of Anti-doping Rule Violations
Dietary supplements encompass a large heterogenic group of products with a wide range of ingredients and declared effects used by athletes for a multitude of reasons. The high prevalence of use across all sports and level of competition, combined with the well-documented risks of such products containing prohibited substances have led to several doping cases globally. Despite being a considerable concern and persistent focus of sport organization…
A Mixed-Method Evaluation of a Prison Anti-doping Intervention: The Hercules Prison Program
The Norwegian Offender Mental Health and Addiction study denotes the need for physical activity and anti-doping interventions in Norwegian prisons. We developed and evaluated the efficacy of such intervention—the Hercules prison program. The program combines theoretical anti-doping lessons with practical strength training. The study adopts a mixed-methods approach (pretest-posttest design) comprising a longitudinal survey, observation, informal c…
