A few nights after one of their players was injured by a dirty hit, the Johnstown Jets plotted to exact some revenge on Buffalo's Greg Neeld. An all-out brawl broke out during warmups and the North American Hockey League game was postponed, much to the dismay of ownership and presumably the fans at a sold-out War Memorial Arena. It just so happened that director George Roy Hill was in the arena that night, cameras rolling.

The Pac-12 Student-Athlete Advisory Committee voted to award the Oregon State women’s basketball team with the Pac-12 Sportsmanship Award for the 2019-20 season, honoring their character and sportsmanship before a rivalry game against Oregon in Jan. 2020 -- the day Kobe Bryant, his daughter, Gigi, and seven others passed away in a helicopter crash in Southern California. In the above video, Aleah Goodman and Madison Washington share how the teams came together as one in a circle of prayer before the game.

On the day Kobe Bryant suddenly passed away, the Beavers embraced their rivals at midcourt in a moment of strength to support the Ducks, many of whom had personal connections to Bryant and his daughter, Gigi. For this, Oregon State is the 2020 recipient of the Pac-12 Sportsmanship Award.

Abstract:
We consider the stochastic transport equation with a possibly unbounded Hölder continuous vector field. Well-posedness is proved, namely, we show existence, uniqueness and strong stability of $W^{1,p}$-weak solutions.

Neurocognitive testing is recommended for the assessment of sport-related concussions. Computerized neurocognitive tests are more sensitive and more efficient than traditional neuropsychological testing in assessing sport-related concussions.

We describe the current prevalence of computerized neurocognitive testing, the relative use of the various computerized programs, the types of clinicians interpreting test scores, and associations of computerized tests with timing of return-to-play and medical provider type managing the athlete.

The pathophysiology of pediatric sports-related concussion (SRC) is largely unknown. Studies of concussed adults have identified neuronal and axonal injury and time-limited metabolic disruptions. An experimental animal model has also demonstrated physiologic perturbations, including reduced cerebral blood flow (CBF).

Using MRI techniques, we found no evidence of neuronal, axonal, or metabolic disruptions in 12 children with SRC. However, when compared with controls, statistically significant alterations in CBF were defined and frequently persisted beyond 30 days after injury. (Read the full article)

Literature about polymorphic expression of an apparent life-threatening event (ALTE), particularly that concerning discrimination between ALTE with evident cause and idiopathic ALTE, is scarce. Relationships between SIDS and ALTEs have been supposed but data are still controversial and no genetic data are available.

Genetic analysis (5HTT and MAOA) on ALTEs and idiopathic ALTEs discriminated the 2 syndromes and found a link between the idiopathic form and SIDS. Consequently, we hypothesized that the 2 latter syndromes could be different phenotype expressions of a common genetic base. (Read the full article)

Children with a single kidney are often counseled to avoid contact/collision sports based on the concern of injury to the kidney; however, the incidence of kidney injury during sport is not well understood.

Based on this multiyear, prospective injury surveillance system of varsity-level high school athletes, sport-related kidney injury is rare. Reevaluation of American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations regarding sport participation by children with a single kidney is indicated. (Read the full article)

Among adolescents, weight status has been inversely associated with sports participation but not active commuting or physical education. Studies of each form of physical activity have not included adequate adjustments for other physical activities, previous body weight, or diet quality.

Estimates indicate overweight/obesity and obesity prevalence would decrease by 11% and 26%, respectively, if adolescents played on at least 2 sports teams per year; obesity prevalence would decrease by 22% if adolescents walked/biked to school 4–5 days per week. (Read the full article)

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) in children causes significant morbidity and mortality. Parental and coach awareness about brain injury due to sports has recently increased. Since 2001, pediatric emergency departments have seen a significant increase in sports-related TBI.

Pediatric, sports-related TBIs cared for in the emergency department and admitted to the hospital have both increased, resulting in no change in the percentage being admitted. However, patients admitted have had a significant reduction in injury severity. (Read the full article)

Cooling infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy shortly after birth improves survival and neurodevelopmental outcome. The optimal way to cool infants during transfer to regional NICUs is unclear.

Data from a regional neonatal transfer team, using first passive and subsequently active cooling for these infants, suggest that active cooling results in improved thermal control and a reduction in stabilization time. (Read the full article)
