Serum proteins designated as liver function biomarkers are used to evaluate patients for hepatic dysfunction. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM2) is generally a defect in insulin action and secretion and in the regulation of hepatic glucose production. Exercise to treat type 2 diabetes has had positive impacts on the lives of diabetics. The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of the glycemic curve in three different types of training: Strength Training (TF), High Intensity Resistant Training (HIRT) and Interval High Intensity Training (HIIT). The sample is a 57year-old, sedentary type 2 diabetic who underwent the training method - Strength Training (TF), High Intensity Resistant Training (HIRT), and High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). once a week at night. Pre-study anamnesis, pre- and post-exercise glycemia were performed. The overall results were satisfactory presenting HIIT as the most effective method for acute post-exercise blood glucose reduction (reducing 29.62%, 34.25%, 38.89 and 36.11% immediately at 10, 20, 30 minutes after exertion respectively). It was concluded that physical training positively influenced the reduction of blood glucose as an acute effect, but HIIT was the most effective method.

The Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) plays a significant role in stabilising the knee joint. It has a complex architecture made up of collagen
fibers, which makes it well suited to guide movements especially in preventing excessive translations and rotations during functional
activities. However, during daily living and sporting activities, the forces on the ACL occasionally exceed their limit, leading to a rupture.
Primary repair of the anterior cruciate ligament was a popular treatment in the late 19th century, particularly, during the 1970’s and the
‘80s on the lines of repairing MCL or the Achilles tendon, however, an open ACL repair allowed seldom healing owing to its intra-articular
position and lack of clot formation due to the presence of synovial fluid.

As physicians we need to take into context other etiologies of injury in relation to their surrounding environment. Pain was localized in her anterior thighs with referred pain in her lower back, without neck pain or stiffness. According to her spouse, she was not sleeping at night due to worsening thigh pain and appeared very tired with intermittent episodes of confusion. Hypertonic saline was used to correct her hyponatremia.

Background: Asthma is the most common disease in school-aged children, and the prevalence rate is increasing every year. In Africa, the prevalence is high in schools and reaches 16.8% among students and more particularly during Physical Activities (PA), where physical exercises contribute to the increase of the frequency of cases of asthma attack. In Togo, the prevalence rate being very high, a survey on the management of this disease could be beneficial.
Objective: This study aims to assess students' knowledge, practices and self-management of asthma during physical activities.
Methods: It was a cross-sectional study, by questionnaire, carried out from February to September 2020 among 40 asthmatics from secondary schools in Lome aged 11 to 18 years. The participants were students who had documentation proving that they had asthma and who had agreed to participate in the study. A questionnaire containing information on adherence with treatment, knowledge of inhalation technique. Data were analysed using IBM SPSS statistics version 19.0 for Windows (SPSS Inc., an IBM Company, and Chicago, IL, USA).
Results: The participation rate was 60.6%. The average age was 14.1 ± 2.2 years, with the extremes of 11 and 18 years. The Sex Ratio (SR) of the participants was 1.22 with a predominance of men in the total number of this survey: 22 men (55%) and 18 women (45%). During an asthma attack, attitudes varied depending on how long the asthma lasted, but the difference is not significant. The majority (62.5%) had a low level of knowledge about their asthma treatment, and 50% had no adherence to treatment. Most of them (50%) ignore inhalation techniques.
Conclusion: There is insufficient knowledge of asthma treatment and treatment adherence among students with asthma in secondary schools in Lome. Awareness is essential.

The main purpose of this study was to investigate the impacts of media coverage on the development of Hadiya Hosanna football club. Football and media has long historical relationships. Under this research, the researcher was study the relationship between social media and football. This study was employed by purposefully sampling method or the sampling techniques are purposeful sampling methods. The needed data was obtained by means of questioner and interview on players, coach and club manager from Hadiya Hosanna football club and the total population of Hadiya Hosanna football club was 29 and sampling size are 25 players, 3 coaches and 1 club manager based on analyzed media is very essential to develop football. In Hadiya Hosanna football club there was medium media coverage. In this cause there was impacts of on the development of the club. So the responsible body must work with medias.

Background: Daily step count was associated with various health outcomes. However, the quantitative relationship between daily step count and lung function among general population is unclear to date.
Methods: We conducted a panel study with repeated measurement of daily step counts and lung function parameters in consecutive 11 days among 16 healthy male college students in a self-controlled study design. Linear mixed-effect model was used to assess the dose-response relationship between daily step count and lung function parameters.
Results: Compared with control days, subjects in intervention days had lower daily step counts and lung function parameters. Nonlinear associations of daily step count with FEV0.5, FEV0.5/FVC, and FEV1.0/FVC were observed in all observations, but become insignificant in subgroups of step count ≤ 8000 or >8000. Significant linear dose-response relationships were observed in those taking daily step counts ≤ 8000, showing that each 1000-increase in daily step was significantly associated with 36.81 ml, 20.29 ml, 1.36%, 0.48%, 1.88%, 1.38%, 2.06% and 0.76% increase in FEV0.5, FEV1.0, FEV0.5/FVC, FEV1.0/FVC, MMF%pred, FEF25%pred, FEF50%pred, and FEF75%pred, respectively.
Conclusion: Increased daily step count benefits lung function among healthy male adults, though the excess benefit was limited when taking more than 8000 steps per day.

Scope: Currently there are several reference values for evaluating cardiorespiratory fitness in children. However, one of the most commonly used reference model seems to overestimate normal exercise capacity. We aimed to compare the reference values of peak VO2 between the Bongers model and the newly published Z-score model on a population of children and adolescents referred for CPET.
Methodology: This is a cohort study including 195 healthy young people with exercise symptoms as well as children with different pathologies. All included subjects completed CPET on a bicycle according to a standard protocol. Their exercise values were recorded and the predicted peak VO2 values were compared using the two methods using Bland-Altman, one-sample t-test, linear regression, Welch’s t-test and Chi-2.
Findings: Subjects were aged 14.1 ± 0.6 years. The predicted values between Bongers and the z-score model were not consistent. The Z-score model seems to better estimate the predicted value of our population, since the difference between observed and predicted VO2 was smaller than according to the Bongers model, whether in the entire cohort (-258.2 ± 402.2 vs. -559.7 ± 536.7 mL/min) or in healthy children (-393.6 ± 337.5 vs. -685.3 ± 415.8 mL/min).
Conclusions: The new Z-score model seems to better predict normal CRF in our population of healthy children and in children with various conditions than the Bongers model. This new equation was developed from three populations from different countries and with a wide diversity of ages and BMI, making it applicable to a more heterogeneous population.
Limitations: Our subjects without known condition were referred to us for exercise symptoms. We cannot therefore consider them as healthy in “strictu sensu”. However, as they all had a normal cardiological examination, we had considered them as healthy.
