Hip and Groin Injury Prevention in Elite Athletes and Team Sport – Current Challenges and Opportunities by Steven M. Short, Cameron W. MacDonald, Donald Strack

“…Often situations arise where sub-optimal pre-season training has occurred or congested in-season competition minimizes physiologic recovery periods between bouts of physical activity, both of which could magnify concomitant existing risk factors and increase injury risk. Identification and management of HAGI can be challenging as numerous structures within the region can be drivers of pain and injury, especially when considering the likelihood of concurrent pathology and injury reoccurrence. …”

The Molecular Genetics and Cellular Mechanisms Underlying Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension by Rajiv D. Machado

“…In this paper, the molecular genetic basis of the disorder is discussed in detail ranging from the original identification of the major genetic contributant to PAH and moving on to current next-generation technologies that have led to the rapid identification of additional genetic risk factors. The impact of identified mutations on the cell is examined, particularly, the determination of pathways disrupted in disease and critical to pulmonary vascular maintenance. …”
