Head impact exposure in youth football: Are current interventions hitting the target?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Restrictions on heading in youth football have been implemented in some countries to limit head impact exposure. However, current interventions remain poorly guided by evidence. Our objective was to quantify heading exposure ... -
Health conditions detected in a comprehensive periodic health evaluation of 558
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-03-24)Background: Despite widespread use of periodic health evaluation (PHE) to detect and prevent injury and illness in athletes, its effectiveness in detecting health conditions and relevant risk factors is still debated. ... -
The health effects of 14 weeks of physical activity in a real-life setting for adults with intellectual disabilities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: The life expectancy of individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID) is reduced compared to the general population, and one of the main contributors to earlier death is inactivity. Aim: To investigate how ... -
Health protection of the olympic athlete
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Protection of the athletes' health is a clearly articulated objective of the International Olympic Committee. Longitudinal surveillance of injuries and illnesses can provide valuable data that may identify high-risk sports ... -
Health-related aspects of objectively measured daily physical activity in children
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-02-03)It is well established that physical inactivity in adults is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Whether daily physical activity level is related to risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in children ... -
The healthy body image (HBI) intervention: Effects of a school-based cluster-randomized controlled trial with 12-months follow-up
