THE SYNDROME OF OVERTRAINING AMONG THE ALGERIAN ELITE JUDOKAS (YOUNGER MEMBERS OF THE ALGERIAN NATIONAL TEAM) DURING A COMPETITION FOLLOW-UP

Introduction:  The main objective of this study is to detect the existence of a state of fatigue and a syndrome of overtraining among Algerians judokas of the youngest category (girls and boys) by the use of the questionnaire of fatigue among the child athlete (QFES) and to evaluate the variations of the score by report has its 07 dimensions. Method: 24 judokas cadets of the national team, 14 boys 58.3% and 10 girls 41,7%. The boys are an average age of 16.21±0.21 years, an average weight of 67±16,40kg and a stature of 171,64±9,49cm. They have a body mass index(BMI) of 22.69±4.94 kg/m².girls have an average age of 16.20±0.78 years, a weight of 59.1±7.89 kg and a stature of 163.9±3,14cm.The BMI is equal to 21,95±2.50 kg/sq. m. The athletes are attending school between the fourth average year at the College and the second year of secondary school. During the period of the microcycle stage of competition which is taking place between 01 March 2017 and 31 May 2017, we distributed the questionnaire at the end of the competition at the Championship in Algeria (Algiers, 27/05/2017). Results: The score of the questionnaire was to 40.01±8.58 (minimum=27, 00, maximum=54), 33.33% of athletes their scores to the QFES≥45. The average score for an item is 1.1±0.11. The ranking of items of the QFES by average quotation with significant threshold retained of p<0.05. The results are expressed in average ± standard deviation. Conclusion: The main results show that in the questionnaire QFES fatigue is a sensitive tool to detect a state of fatigue. However, a biological study is imperative in order to establish the correlation between syndrome of the overtraining and oxidative stress among young judokas  Article visualizations

Structural, magnetic, electrical and dielectric properties of Pr 0.8 Na 0.2 MnO 3 manganite

The orthorhombic Pr0.8Na0.2MnO3 ceramic was prepared in polycrystalline form by a Pechini sol–gel method and its structural, magnetic, electrical and dielectric properties were investigated experimentally. A structural study confirms that the sample is single phase. Magnetic measurements show that the sample is a charge ordered manganite. The sample undergoes two successive magnetic phase transitions with the variation of temperature: a charge ordering transition occurred at TCO = 212 K followed by a paramagnetic (PM) to ferromagnetic (FM) transition around TC = 115 K. From an electrical point of view, a saturation region was marked in the conductivity as a function of temperature σ(T) curves at a specific temperature. The dc-conductivity (σdc) reaches a maximum value at 240 K. The obtained results are in good agreement with the temperature dependence of the average normalized change (ANC). We found that the conduction mechanism was governed by small polaron hopping (SPH) in the high temperature region and by variable range hopping (VRH) in the low temperature region. Complex impedance analysis indicates the presence of a non-Debye relaxation phenomenon in the system. Also, the compound was modeled by an electrical equivalent circuit. Then, the contribution of the grain boundary in the transport properties was confirmed

Supplementary Material for: Target Door-to-Needle Time for Tissue Plasminogen Activator Treatment with Magnetic Resonance Imaging Screening Can Be Reduced to 45 min

<b><i>Objective:</i></b> The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that the median door-to-needle (DTN) time for intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) treatment can be reduced to 45 min in a primary stroke centre with MRI-based screening for acute ischaemic stroke (AIS). <b><i>Methods:</i></b> From February 2015 to February 2017, the stroke unit of Perpignan general hospital, France, implemented a quality-improvement (QI) process. During this period, patients who received tPA within 4.5 h after AIS onset were included in the QI cohort. Their clinical characteristics and timing metrics were compared each semester and also with those of 135 consecutive patients with AIS treated by tPA during the 1-year pre-QI period (pre-QI cohort). <b><i>Results:</i></b> In the QI cohort, 274 patients (92.5%) underwent MRI screening. While the demographic and baseline characteristics were not significantly different between cohorts, the median DTN time was significantly lower in the QI than in the pre-QI cohort (52 vs. 84 min; <i>p</i> < 0.00001). Within the QI cohort, the median DTN time for each semester decreased from 65 to 44 min (<i>p</i> < 0.00001) and the proportion of treated patients with a DTN time ≤45 min increased from 25 to 58.9% (<i>p</i> < 0.0001). Overall, DTN time improvement was associated with a better outcome at 3 months (patients with a modified Rankin Scale score between 0 and 2: 61.8% in the QI vs. 39.3% in the pre-QI cohort; <i>p</i> < 0.0001). <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> A QI process can reduce the DTN within 45 min with MRI as a screening tool
