PRISM II is a reliable and easy performing tool for assessing the prognosis of non-accidental cranial traumatism in young children. GCS and PTS, scores even simpler than PRISM II, showed good accuracy regarding survival prediction.
Highlights
Endurance long-term high level of training induces significant cardiac remodelling involving all cardiac chambers, also known as ‘athletes-heart”.
Both left and right ventricular longitudinal strain increases significantly at exercise.
Cardiac extracellular volume is normal in master athletes and there is no evidence of cardiac fibrosis induced by long term endurance training in master athletes.
There is no evidence of cardiac damage induced by intensive endurance training in healthy asymptomatic master athletes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
