The goal of training competitive athletes is to provide training loads that will improve performance. When prolonged, excessive training occurs concurrent with other stressors and insufficient recovery, performance decrement can result first in functional overreaching (FO), then extreme overreaching or non-functional overreaching (NFO) and overtraining. Chronic maladaptations may lead then to the overtraining syndrome (OTS). As it is possible to recover from functional overreaching within a period of 2 weeks, the recovery from NFO needs several weeks or even months. Athletes who suffer from OTS may need months or even years to completely recover (1). Early diagnostic of overreaching is of high importance for prevention of overtraining as well as for interruption of progression of NFO/OTS. The purpose of the study was detection of nonfunctional overreaching and overtraining with use of contemporary diagnostic criteria. Diagnosis of OTS was based on the checklist provided by the consensus statement of the European College of Sports Science (ECSS) and the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) (3). Examination of 348 high level athletes revealed 43 subjects with NFO/OTS, among them 37 with NFO and 6 athletes with OTS. Prevalence of NFO and OTS was seen in sporting disciplines with mixed high intensity workload-27(62,8%) NFO and 4 (9,3%) OTS, particularly, majority of NFO/OTS was revealed in wrestling: NFO – 19 (44,2%) and OTS – 4 (9,3%). Checklist criteria elaborated by ECSS and ACSM is efficient and flexible tool for diagnosing overreaching and overtraining in athletes. Most frequently NFO/OTS is seen in wrestling, which needs further investigation and regular medical monitoring.

Background: Although citation analysis is common in many areas of medicine, there is a lack of similar research in sports and exercise medicine. Purpose: To identify and examine the characteristics of the 100 top cited articles in the field of sports and exercise medicine in an effort to determine what components make an article highly influential. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: The Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed databases were used to determine the 100 top cited articles from 46 journals in the field of sports and exercise medicine. Each of the 100 articles was then analyzed by 2 independent reviewers, and results were compared. Basic information was collected, including journal title, country of origin, and study type. Different categories were compared using descriptive statistics of counts or percentages. Results: The 100 top cited articles were published in 15 of the 46 identified sports and exercise medicine journals, with the most prolific being Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise (n = 49), American Journal of Sports Medicine (n = 18), and Sports Medicine (n = 7). In terms of country of origin, the top 3 contributors were the United States (n = 65), Canada (n = 9), and Sweden (n = 8). The most commonly researched anatomic areas were the knee (n = 15) and the brain (n = 3). Narrative reviews were the most common study type (n = 38), and only a single study on the 100 top cited articles list used a randomized controlled trial design. The most prevalent fields of study were exercise science (55% of articles) and well-being (16% of articles). Conclusion: Narrative reviews from the United States and published in English-language journals were the most likely to be highly cited. In addition, the knee was a common anatomic area of study on the top cited list of research in sports and exercise medicine
