<h3>Importance</h3> Former US football athletes are at increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality compared with the general population other professional athletes. However, responsible maladaptive CV phenotypes have not been fully characterized. <h3>Objective</h3> To address emergence progression multiple independent factors associated across serial years collegiate participation. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> Collegiate from 2 National Athletic Association...
American-style football (ASF) participation rates in the United States are highest among high school (HS) athletes. This study sought to compare cardiovascular response HS versus collegiate ASF participation.The participants (HS, n = 61; collegiate, 87) were studied at preseason and postseason time points with echocardiography applanation tonometry. Primary outcome variables included: left ventricular (LV) mass index, LV diastolic function (early relaxation velocity [E']), arterial stiffness...
ABSTRACT Introduction Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes and reportedly overused in American-style football (ASF). However, assessment of ASF NSAID use the context risk has not been performed. We sought to characterize patterns association a diverse cohort high school collegiate athletes. Methods A total 226 athletes, 60 endurance 63 nonathletic controls were studied pre- postseason echocardiography, vascular applanation...
