- Imaging Assessment of the Pubis in Soccer Players(2019) TODESCHINI, Karina; DARUGE, Paulo; BORDALO-RODRIGUES, Marcelo; PEDRINELLI, André; BUSETTO, Antonio MarcosAbstract Objective To compare the accuracy of ultrasound (US) with that of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the detection of aponeurosis lesions of the rectus abdominis/adductor longus muscles, to study the characteristics of the athletes and imaging findings associated with pubalgia, and to demonstrate the importance of each method in evaluating this condition. Materials and methods The present study was conducted from 2011 to 2016 with 39 professional soccer players: 15 with pubalgia and 24 without pubalgia. Age, field position, bodymass index (BMI), weekly training load, career length, and history of thigh/knee injury and lower back pain were recorded. The following tests were performed: radiographs (anteroposterior view of the pelvis in standing and flamingo positions) to evaluate hip impingement, sacroiliac joint, and pubic symphysis instability; US to analyze the common aponeurosis of the rectus abdominis/adductor longus muscles and inguinal hernias; and MRI for pubic bone degenerative alterations and edema, and lesions in the adductor and rectus abdominis muscles and their aponeurosis. Results There was an association between pubalgia, high BMI (p = 0.032) andmuscle alterations (p < 0.001). Two patients with pubalgia had inguinal hernias and one patient with pubalgia and two controls had sports hernias. Pubic degenerative changes were frequent in both groups. Aponeurosis lesions weremore frequent in patients with pain. The US detection had 44.4% sensitivity and 100% specificity. Conclusion The evaluation of athletic pubalgia should be performed with radiography, US, and MRI. High BMI, muscle injuries, geodes, and osteophytes are findings associated with pubalgia; US has low sensitivity to detect injuries of the common aponeurosis of the rectus abdominis/adductor longus muscles.
- FIFA World Cup(2019) PEDRINELLI, A.; DROLSHAGEN, C. S.The Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) World Cup is the biggest football event in the world and the most widely viewed sport event all over the globe. The championship has been awarded every 4 years, and in 2014 it was held in Brazil. In 2014, this major event took place in Brazil with 12 host cities, including São Paulo with the Itaquera Stadium which hosted 6 games including the opening match and had a capacity of over 63, 000 seats at the World Cup. In this chapter, we will discuss the organization of the FIFA Medical Service in São Paulo providing the structural, action plans and challenges involved in that mission. © ISAKOS 2019.
bookPart Dor em atleta(2019) PEDRINELLI, André; LASMAR, Rodrigo Campos Pace; DORILêO, Carlos- Comparing the Aerobic Fitness of Professional Male Soccer Players and Soccer Referees(2019) SANTOS-SILVA, Paulo R.; GREVE, Julia M. D'Andrea; PEDRINELLI, Andre; ALMEIDA, Adriano M.; OSORIO, Bruna B.; FERREIRA, Marcelo; FERREIRA, CelsoWe looked to compare the aerobic performance between professional soccer referees and players. Fifty male soccer referees and 61 male soccer players were tested on a treadmill. The referees and players possessed 15 +/- 7 years and 7 +/- 3 years of experience in soccer, respectively. Significant differences were observed between the referees and players with regards to: age (34.8 +/- 4.6 years vs 20.8 +/- 2.7 years; P < 0.001, maximum oxygen uptake (54.7 +/- 5.4 mL center dot kg(-1)center dot min(-1) vs 58.8 +/- 4.4 mL center dot kg(-1)center dot min(-1); P < 0.001), and maximal heart rate in peak exercise (184 +/- 11 bpm vs 192 +/- 9 bpm, P < 0.001). Less significant differences also were observed and included; running speed at the maximum oxygen uptake (16.6 +/- 1 km center dot h(-1) vs 16.4 +/- 1.1 km center dot h(-1)), running speed at the ventilatory threshold (213.5 +/- 1.1 km center dot h(-1) vs 13.2 +/- 0.9 km center dot h(-1)), and percentage of maximal oxygen uptake at the ventilatory threshold (285.1% +/- 3.2% vs 84.1% +/- 6.2%). The effect size of most comparative variables between the two groups was small (<0.6). Older elite-level soccer referees are able to reach and maintain aerobic physical fitness levels similar to professional soccer players. Aerobic physical fitness may be a measurable factor for maintaining elite-level soccer licensure rather than age alone.
bookPart Atividade física nas amputações e nas anomalias congênitas(2019) PEDRINELLI, André; TEIXEIRA, William Jacobsen; SPOSETO, Rafael Barban- Infrared thermography study as a complementary method of screening and prevention of muscle injuries: Pilot study(2019) CôRTE, A.C.; PEDRINELLI, A.; MARTTOS, A.; SOUZA, I.F.G.; GRAVA, J.; HERNANDEZ, A. JoséObjective To evaluate thermography application as a complementary method in preventing muscle injury in professional soccer players. Methods A longitudinal prospective study with 28 professional soccer players that composed a first division of Brazilian's soccer team between 2015 and 2016. In both seasons (2015 and 2016), muscle injuries were documented and classified in grade of severity, by ultrasound. During the following season (2016), infrared medical thermography was applied twice a week (48 hours after game) and if a difference of temperature was detected higher than 0.4°C, a prevention protocol was initiated. Muscle injuries in 2016 were documented. Results In 2015, the total number of muscle injuries was 11. In 2016, the total number of muscle injuries was 4 (p=0.04). It represents an incidence/player of 78% in 2015 and 28% in 2016, corresponding to a decrease of 64% in 2016. Seven players played in the first team in both seasons. Among these seven players, muscle injuries were reduced from 8 (in 2015) to 3 (in 2016)- A decrease of 63% in the season we used thermographic monitoring (p=0.06). Conclusion The pilot data provide a promising catalyst for a rigorous RCT that could examine whether thermography can contribute to a muscle injury prevention programme. © 2019 Author(s).
