I've been working more on an unsupervised #VO2max model using only GPS data. This is built from 13 D1 soccer players with ~25 sessions each

Please let me know if you have GPS data so that I can continue building the model and hopefully publish (w/ known VO2 max)

Pls retweet

Data from 684 athletes from the Sports Cardiology Center Database at Cleveland Clinic - 22.8% of healthy athletes would be reclassified as having abnormal LV function based on WASE. The same rules don't apply!

Patients with advanced atrial fibrosis are more likely to have a stroke/TIA or other cardiovascular mortalities.

Athlete LVEF normal values? 22% of 203 athletes would potentially be misclassified as having a low EF based on 2019 World Alliance Societies of Echocardiography criteria in this study. Need: normal EF ranges in athletes re: ethnicity/sport/gender #ACC21 #SportsCardio @ACCinTouch

Our review on chronic coronary stress in middle aged and older endurance athletes. This is an area that requires more investigation @StGeorgesUni @parry_williams @TheBHF @CRY_UK #sports #cardiology #master #athletes

@drraviele I always thought that the potential issue about lead fracture in athletes with ICD was exaggerated. It is very encouraging to see this study in @CircAHA. Many thanks to the authors! @sports #heart #exercise

The least fit and the most fit people are at the highest risk of afib.

Masters athletes without AF show higher degree of LA fibrosis and enlargement as compared to control.

In distinction to men, endurance athletics seems to be protective against Afib in women.
In both, endurance athletics protects from stroke.
