Item Interassociation Consensus Statement on Cardiovascular Care of College Student-Athletes(American College of Cardiology Foundation, 2016-04) Hainline, Brian; Drezner, Jonathan; Baggish, Aaron; Harmon, Kimberly G.; Emery, Michael S.; Myerburg, Robert J.; Sanchez, Eduardo; Molossi, Silvana; Parsons, John T.; Thompson, Paul D.; Kinesiology, School of Physical Education and Tourism ManagementCardiovascular evaluation and care of college student-athletes is gaining increasing attention from both the public and medical communities. Emerging strategies include screening of the general athlete population, recommendations of permissible levels of participation by athletes with identified cardiovascular conditions, and preparation for responding to unanticipated cardiac events in athletic venues. The primary focus has been sudden cardiac death and the utility of screening with or without advanced cardiac screening. The National Collegiate Athletic Association convened a multidisciplinary task force to address cardiovascular concerns in collegiate student-athletes and to develop consensus for an interassociation statement. This document summarizes the task force deliberations and follow-up discussions, and includes available evidence on cardiovascular risk, pre-participation evaluation, and the recognition of and response to cardiac arrest. Future recommendations for cardiac research initiatives, education, and collaboration are also provided.Item Scientific Statement: Socioecological Determinants of Prediabetes and Type 2 Diabetes(2013-08) Hill, James O.; Galloway, James M.; Goley, April; Marrero, David G.; Minners, Regan; Montgomery, Brenda; Peterson, Gregory E.; Ratner, Robert E.; Sanchez, Eduardo; Aroda, Vanita R.In this article, we examine the socioecological determinants--the biological, geographic, and built environment factors--that influence risk for prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. A socioecological perspective looks beyond the individual to evaluate a multitude of influences, from the surrounding home, work, school, and community environments to social determinants and the influence of public policy on individual behavior (1). Figure 1, adapted from the Institute of Medicine socioecological model of childhood obesity, provides a good framework for understanding potential socioecological determinants of risk for type 2 diabetes. In November 2012, the American Diabetes Association Prevention Committee convened a writing group to review the evidence on socioecological factors contributing to recent increases in prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. Drawing from the work of the committee, in this article we review the overarching evidence-based contributions of socioecological factors to risk for type 2 diabetes. Rather than incorporate the entire universe of relational observations, this scientific statement is intended to evaluate the extent to which data indicate a contributing role of social and environmental factors to the current epidemic of type 2 diabetes.
