Background. The objective of this trial was to evaluate the effect of two exercise programs on patients undergoing the implantation of intraarticular stem cells. Objectives. We performed a randomized trial on sixteen patients under 65 years old with moderate knee OA after stem cell therapy. Methods. Patients were randomly divided into two groups of exercise therapy: weight-bearing (WB) and non-weight-bearing (non-WB). This program lasted 12 weeks, with follow-ups at 1 and 3 months. Primary outcomes were knee pain (visual analog scale (VAS)) and physical function (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC)). Secondary outcomes included: standing time, walking distance, pain-free walking distance, time to jelling, and a subscale of stiffness and pain of WOMAC. Results. Fifteen patients were retained. No adverse effect was reported. There was a significant improvement in pain and physical function in both groups compared to the baseline. VAS: from 55±7.6 to zero (effect size of 1.34), total WOMAC: from 93.75±1.39 to 30.87±5.22 at 1-month and 21.87±6.99 at 3-month (1.88 and 2.73, respectively). For secondary outcomes, walking distance (from 750.0±267.26 meter to 2000.0±0.0 meter and 2500.0±0.0 meter, respectively, and time to jelling (at 3 months, from 5.00±0.0 minute to 35.00±16.90 minute) improved significantly better in WB group. Conclusion. Both types of exercises were safe and improved primary and secondary outcomes. WB exercise has additional benefits of more pain reduction and functional improvement.

Background. Recent research has revealed the importance of psychological skills training and various physiological exercises to improve sporting performance. In light of all these facts, knowing that psychological skills training is necessary to improve sporting performance, and knowing the importance of the psychological performance program to develop these skills and ensure the control and stability of emotions, particularly in adolescence, led to the emergence of this study. Objectives. This study aimed to understand the effect of 10-week psychological skills training and positive feedback on handball players’ self-efficacy beliefs and shot accuracy. Methods. Thirty-eight female handball players aged between 15 and 19 were included in two study groups and one control group. Whereas the first study group received psychological skill training, the second group received planned positive feedback and psychological skills training. The data were collected through a personal information form, a self-efficacy scale (five-point Likert-type scale), and a shot accuracy measurement scale. Then the pretest-posttest controlled group patterned model was used to determine the differences between the groups. GraphPad Prism 8 was used for statistical analysis with the conventional method. Results. 10-week psychological skills training increased the self-efficacy performance of young handball players in both study groups compared to their pretest results (P<0.01), and the increase was significant in study group 2 compared to the control group (P<0.01). The results also showed that the psychological skills training increased the performance of the shot accuracy of the handball players in both study groups compared to their pretest results. Still, the increase was significant in the study group receiving positive feedback (P<0.001). Moreover, the increase in the shot accuracy test performance of the positive feedback-receiving group was higher than the control and non-receiving group (P<0.01 and P<0.001, respectively). Conclusion. In conclusion, this study determined that the psychological skills training program increased the handball players’ self-efficacy and shot accuracy. Positive feedback strengthened the effect of the training even more on the self-efficacy beliefs and shot accuracy performance of the young athletes.

Background. Low back pain is one of the ten most common causes of disability, and sacroiliac joint dysfunction is one of the most common causes of it. Objectives. This study aimed to find if there is any association between hip adductor tightness with sacroiliac joint dysfunction. Methods. Sixty people who had attended our Sports Medicine Clinic took part in this study (30 in each group). The case group contains patients who had sacroiliac joint dysfunction based on physical examination and the control group was patients with similar characteristics who attended for other reasons rather than spinal or lower limb problems. Tenderness and tightness of adductor muscles were assessed in both groups by a fixed sports medicine specialist. Results. The level of tenderness (Kendall Tau correlation coefficient equal to 0.440 and P <0.001) and tightness (Kendall Tow correlation coefficient equal to 0.479 and P <0.001) of the hip adductor muscles in the case group were significantly higher. More people in the case group reported hip adductor muscle pain than the control group (P <0.001). Conclusion. This study showed more hip adductor muscle involvement in people suffering from sacroiliac joint dysfunction.

Background. Sports events are considered activities carried out in a specific schedule to handle all kinds of sports competitions and activities, such as seminars, meetings, courses, panels, and camps, organized for sports purposes. Methods. In this study, we aimed to discuss sports events during the pandemic. In this context, the present study targeted the 16th NKolay Istanbul Half Marathon on April 4, 2021, and recruited the randomly selected 125 female (23.1%) and 417 male (76.9%) marathon runners in this event. We gathered the data using a demographic information format and a 14-item scale. Results. We sought answers to four hypotheses by employing a descriptive survey model. Initially, we carried out a pilot study with a sample of 30 people to explore the validity of the scale and replicated the validity study for the primary sample. We performed exploratory factor analysis with the varimax rotation method for the validity study and attempted to confirm the resultant factorial structure using confirmatory factor analysis. We utilized a T-test and one-way analysis of variance to investigate whether the subscales of the survey differed significantly by the participants' demographics. We ran statistical analyses on SPSS 20.0 at the 95% confidence interval. Conclusion. The findings confirmed our first two hypotheses. We were able to confirm the third hypothesis partially. Accordingly, the participants significantly differed in the race destination subscale by only income. Finally, our results rejected the fourth hypothesis. Overall, we may assert that COVID-19 is a prime concern for half marathon runners.

Background. This study investigated the effects of short-duration high-intensity simulation of soccer fatigue on the dynamic balance and isokinetic strength of the lower limbs in youth soccer players. Methods. Thirty-nine youth soccer players completed a high-intensity fatigue simulation in 5-min. The participants performed tests on dynamic balance and isokinetic strength before the fatigue simulation (PRE), immediately after simulation (POST5), and 20 min (POST20) and 35 min (POST35) after simulation. Dynamic balance was measured using the Y-Balance test for both legs in the anterior, posteromedial (PM), and posterolateral (PL) directions. The muscle strength of the lower limb was measured using the maximal isokinetic contraction of the dominant leg only. Results. Dynamic balance was significantly reduced after stimulation in all directions for both legs (P<0.005). Significant reduction in the eccentric hamstring, concentric hamstring, and concentric quadriceps peak torques were also observed (P<0.05). However, no significant reductions were found in the functional hamstring/quadriceps ratio and conventional hamstring/quadriceps ratio (P>0.05). Conclusion. Fatigue influences dynamic balance, hamstrings, and quadriceps strength which may have implications for higher risk of knee injury in youth players.

Background. There have been many studies on partial weight support walking training. However, most studies have been performed in treadmill settings, not in actual walking environments. Objectives. This study aimed to investigate the effect of partial weight support ground walking training on the temporal and spatial gait parameters of chronic stroke patients. Methods. This study was designed as a single-blinded randomized controlled trial. The experimental group applied only 70% of its weight using partial weight support equipment. The experimental group underwent the 30 m ground track for 12 minutes, rested for 3 minutes, and then repeated twice in the same way to apply a total of 30 minutes of partial weight-supported ground walking training. In order to measure the temporal and spatial parameters of gait for walking training in stroke patients, a pre-and post-test was performed using GAIT RITE. An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to compare gait variables. Results. There was a significant improvement in walking speed in the experimental group compared to the control group. However, there was no significant difference between cadence and cycle time (P < 0.05). Step length, stride length, and swing rate were significantly improved in the experimental group compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion. Partial weight support walking training positively affects gait in chronic stroke patients. Thus, it is thought that partial weight support gait training can be used as an effective intervention method to improve gait in

Background. In the study of wearable device users, it was found that the intentional motives for using wearable devices were a novelty, fun, and popular trends, but whether the needs and functions of device users will change due to the change the time is the focus of this study. Objectives. This study aims to examine the path relationships among motivation of use, exercise commitment, and exercise engagement of users of wearable fitness devices. Methods. The subjects of the study were users of wearable fitness devices. The questionnaires were distributed online through purposive sampling. A total of 479 questionnaires were distributed, and 347 valid questionnaires were collected after excluding invalid questionnaires with an effective response rate of 72.4%. The response data were validated by descriptive statistics, confirmatory factor analysis, and a structural equation model. Results. The results of the study reveal that users of wearable fitness devices are mainly motivated by “informativeness” and “practicality and instrumentation”; motivation of use does not directly affect exercise engagement (t = 0.895, P < 0.056). Exercise commitment is mediating between the motivation of use and exercise engagement; motivation of use positively affects exercise commitment, and exercise commitment positively affects exercise engagement (t = 3.856, P < 0.001). Conclusion. Wearable device users believe that the wearable devices can record their own exercise-related information, enhance exercise efficiency, and provide an easy-to-understand interface with a sense of entertainment and novelty technology, which support the device users to engage in physical activities. Commitment to exercise will influence the individual's continued engagement in exercise.

Background. World Health Organization pointed out in 2019 that insufficient physical activity has become the fourth major risk factor affecting global mortality. Objectives. This research explores the influence of multi-media teaching intervention in the physical education curriculum on college students’ sports attitudes and behavior. Methods. The subjects of weight training and Yogalates courses (94 people in weight training class 2 and 94 people in Yogalates class 2) were divided into experimental and control groups. Both groups were taught in person for 18 weeks. The experimental group participated in multi-media audio-visual teaching for 6 weeks, once a week, for 30 minutes. The control group did not implement multi-media audio-visual teaching. Before and after the teaching experiment, 188 questionnaires were issued with the sports attitude and sports behavior scales, and 184 (97.8%) were effectively returned in the pre-test; 180 (95.7%) were effectively returned in the post-test. After the questionnaire was collected, it was analyzed by descriptive statistics, cross-analysis, and an independent sample t-test. Results. The study found that after multi-media teaching is involved in physical education courses, students’ sports attitudes and behaviors are significantly higher than in traditional teaching, and the number of students participating in sports after class has increased significantly. Conclusion. Multi-media teaching intervention in physical education courses can effectively improve students’ attitudes towards sports, change their actual participation in sports, and enable students to develop the habit of continuing to participate in sports after class.

Background. Continuous Training (CT) is often considered an effective way to reduce obesity. However, recently, a popular protocol called High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) has shown up as an alternative to CT. There is another factor affecting obesity named UCP2 45-bp Insersion/Deletion genetic marker. Objectives. This research aims to determine the effect of the UCP2 45-bp I/D gene as a genetic marker in response to obese training (CT and HIIT). Methods. This study was a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in two cycling training groups (CT and HIIT). The purposive sampling method was used to collect 28 women with obesity (BMI≥25 kg/m 2 ). Random allocation into two groups using the block randomization method. Exercise training interventions were conducted for 12 weeks, with a frequency of 3 times per week. Results. Body composition data (body weight, BMI, and Body Fat Percentage) before and after the intervention were analyzed with the Dependent T-Test and found that both the CT and HIIT groups had significant improvements in body composition (P<0.05). ANCOVA Test analyzed the effect of training type and UCP2 45-bp I/D variance on body composition. There was no effect of training type and genetic variation on body weight improvement (P=0.145), body mass index improvement (P=0.153), and body fat improvement (P=0.159). Conclusion. Both Continuous and High-Intensity Interval Training can equally improve the body composition of obese patients. There was no UCP2 45-bp I/D variance effect on the response to training in a woman with obesity.
