πŸ’‘ Most studies included in this review used in-person educational sessions that included information on fueling/caloric intake, tailored to athlete-specific audiences. Intervention approaches and outcomes were heterogeneous, supporting the need for future research for education programming for LEA.

NIH’s proposed cuts to indirect cost rates threaten lives, innovation & economic growth.

Every $1 from NIH generates $2.5 in economic impact. Cutting indirects cripples labs, raises healthcare costs & slows medical breakthroughs. We must protect research funding!

In this study, we established comparable absolute and perfect relative inter-rater agreement for sonographic and radiographic calcaneal ossification staging for young patients with Sever’s Disease, suggesting sonography is a reasonable to safely assess patient development
