Current club president and second-year medical student, Jessica Johnson, wrote: “Our group had the great opportunity to attend and be part of the Winter Special Olympics in New York. We cheered on the athletes, assisted in time keeping and recording, and even helped out on the ski slope to make sure everything went smoothly. We all had a blast and feel grateful that we were able to be a part of making the athletes’ competition day special. I feel as though I’m speaking for the entire group when I say that we cannot wait to go back again next year.” Left to Right: Jessica Johnson, Devin Stephenson, Daniel Mukamal, Salvatore Sclafani, Nickolas Meier, Rahul Mehta, Kristin Huynh, Michael D'Agosta, Ivana Choudhury, Saumil Patel, and Devin Howell.

There was a great turnout, with more than 30 attendees from the surrounding local chapters. A few of the lectures included Concussion Management with concussion guru, Dr. Rob Franks; Injuries in the Crossfit Athlete, with Dr. Brian Sokalsky; and Ankle Injuries, with Dr. Cody Clinton. The morning lectures were followed by a highly informative Fellowship Panel and an afternoon hands-on sideline OMT session. Please see below for pictures from the event. Congratulations to those who helped plan this successful regional conference! Luncheon Fellowship Panel Sideline OMT Workshop Physicians in the News The Seattle Times writer Ryan Divish wrote about his time with the Mariners' medical staff, including past AOASM presidents, Mitchell Storey, DO, FAOASM (Mariner's team physician) and Dr. Angela Cavanna, DO, FAOASM (consulting physician), during their spring training this February in his article "What it's like to be put to the test by the Mariners' medical staff."

Journal Article Spotlight: Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine Reruptures, Reinjuries, and Revisions at a Minimum 2-Year Follow-up: A Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing 3 Graft Types for ACL Reconstruction Objective: To evaluate the predictive factors for traumatic rerupture, reinjury, and atraumatic graft failure of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction at a minimum 2-year follow-up. Design: Double-blind randomized clinical trial (RCT) with intraoperative computer- generated allocation. Setting: University-based orthopedic referral practice. Patients: Three hundred thirty patients with isolated ACL deficiency were equally randomized to (1) patellar tendon (PT; mean, 29.2 years); (2) quadruple-stranded hamstring tendon (HT; mean, 29.0 years); and (3) double bundle using HT (DB; mean, 28.8 years). Three hundred twenty-two patients completed 2-year follow-up. Interventions: Anatomically positioned primary ACL reconstruction with PT, HT, and DB autografts. Main Outcome Measures: Proportions of complete traumatic reruptures, traumatic reinjuries (complete reruptures and partial tears), atraumatic graft failures, and contralateral ACL tears. Logistic regression assessed 5 a priori determined independent predictors: chronicity, graft type, age, sex, and Tegner level. Results: More complete traumatic reruptures occurred in the HT and DB groups: PT = 3; HT = 7; DB = 7 (P = 0.37). Traumatic reinjuries statistically favored PT reconstructions: (PT = 3; HT = 12; DB = 11; P = 0.05). Atraumatic graft failures were not different: PT = 16; HT = 17; DB = 20 (P = 0.75). Younger age was a significant predictor of complete traumatic reruptures and traumatic reinjuries (P < 0.01). Higher activity level, males, and patients with HT, DB, and acute reconstructions had greater odds of reinjury. None of these factors reached statistical significance. Contralateral ACL tears were not different between groups, but trends suggested that younger females were more likely to have a contralateral ACL tear. Conclusions: More traumatic reinjuries occurred with HT and DB grafts. Younger age was a predictor of complete traumatic rerupture and traumatic reinjury, irrespective of graft type. Level of Evidence: Level 1 (Therapeutic Studies). Clinical Relevance: This article describes the complete traumatic graft rerupture, partial traumatic ACL tear, atraumatic graft failure, and contralateral ACL tear rates observed at 2 years postoperatively in a large double-blind RCT comparing PT, single-bundle hamstring, and double-bundle hamstring ACL reconstructions. The odds and predictive factors of traumatic rerupture and reinjury are also evaluated. Read more... Journal Article Spotlight: British Journal of Sports Medicine Physical activity: what is already being done and how we can avert 1 million deaths annually in future Physical inactivity is a major and increasing contributor to poor health and premature death across the world. People can increase their health-enhancing physical activity (PA) levels through a combination of personal efforts and a supportive and conducive environment. Healthcare has a key role to play but needs more knowledge, organisation, and incentives to fulfil its potential. Physical inactivity caused over 5.3 million deaths, or 9% of premature mortality, worldwide in 2008.1 If physical inactivity were decreased by 25%, more than 1 million annual deaths could be averted. The health improvement of enhanced PA is largely due to the lower risk of cardiovascular disease, metabolic disease, and cancer. Equally importantly, increased PA also improves quality of life and helps to prevent or treat mental health disorders. Read more... March 18, 2016 AOASM BOARD OF DIRECTORS Executive Committee R.
