SUMMARY BOX The prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is growing worldwide and particularly pronounced in the Caribbean.
The study aimed to quantify the measurement error / reliability of a musculoskeletal profiling test battery administered in young, elite academy soccer players, and examine if order which was administered, who it by, influenced reliability. Players (n = 75; age 12–20 years; stature 1.47–1.95 m; body mass 36–89 kg) from U-12 U-23 groups were assigned either: 1) intra-rater-fixed order; 2) intra-rater-non-fixed 3) inter-rater-fixed or, 4) inter-rater-non-fixed groups. On two separate occasions...
The aim of the study was to establish bone and body composition characteristics high-level athletes with without a history stress fracture injury.Overall, 279 (212 men, 67 women) (age 28.0±9.2 years; mass 75.0±17.4 kg; height 1.78±0.10 m) 112 non-athletic controls (60 women, 52 men) 36.2±15.0 70.9±12.9 1.71±0.10 were assessed by DXA their mineral density content, fat lean mass. Athletes completed questionnaire detailing history.There no differences in whole-body (men 1.41±0.12 g/cm2, women...
