Accroître la notoriété internationale de l’orthopédie francophoneA 118 ans, la Revue de Chirurgie orthopédique franchit, en 2009, une étape décisive dans son développement afin de renforcer la diffusion et la notoriété des publications francophones auprès des praticiens et chercheurs non-francophones.Les auteurs ayant leurs racines dans la francophonie trouveront ainsi une chance supplémentaire de voir reconnus les qualités et l’intérêt de leurs recherches par le plus grand nombre.Tous les travaux scientifiques de l’Orthopédie et de la Traumatologie accessibles en anglais et en français.Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research (OTSR) et sa version française Revue de Chirurgie Orthopédique et Traumatologique (RCOT) publient respectivement en anglais et en français des travaux scientifiques originaux ayant trait à l’orthopédie, quelle que soit leur origine. Tous les mémoires originaux, faits cliniques, notes de technique font l’objet d’une double publication : en anglais en format purement électronique (OTSR), en français en édition papier et électronique (RCOT). Seule la version anglaise (OTSR) est indexée dans les banques de données internationales.Des rubriques pratiques pour un lectorat francophone et pluri-disciplinaireLa Revue de chirurgie orthopédique et traumatologique propose par ailleurs en français, des travaux de sociétés scientifiques et groupes de recherche spécialisés liés à l’orthopédie, et des rubriques pratiques : Technique opératoire, Pratique professionnelle, Revue de presse, Analyse de livre...

Representing the Scandinavian sports medicine and science associations, the journal publishes original articles on the traumatologic (orthopaedic), physiologic, biomechanic, medical (including rehabilitation), sociologic, psychologic, pedagogic, historic and philosophic aspects of sport. Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports is thus multidisciplinary and encompasses all elements of research in sport. Leading authorities are invited to contribute reviews on selected topics. The journal is divided into three sections: I Physiology and Biomechanics; II Medicine, Traumatology and Rehabilitation; III Social and Behavioural Aspects of Sports.

A publication of the French Society of Sports Medicine.Science & Sports proposes, on one hand, updates on medical, scientific and applied technical research in the different fields of sports and physical activities (internal medicine, traumatology, psychology, sociology, biomechanics, technology. And, on the other hand, it facilitates the transfer of knowledge and technology between the clinic, research and practice in physical and athletic activity.Articles are published in French or English.

Skeletal Muscle is a peer-reviewed, open access, online journal that publishes articles investigating molecular mechanisms underlying the biology of skeletal muscle. A wide range of skeletal muscle biology is included: development, metabolism, the regulation of mass and function, aging, degeneration, dystrophy and regeneration. The emphasis is on understanding adult skeletal muscle, its maintenance, and its interactions with non-muscle cell types and regulatory modulators. Skeletal Muscle aims to provide a venue for the publication of novel, cutting-edge research and technological developments involving the application of molecular biology, cellular biology, and biochemistry-based approaches, and to answer questions relevant to the understanding of skeletal muscle.

The purpose of the Sociology of Sport Journal is to stimulate and communicate research, critical thought, and theory development on issues pertaining to the sociology of sport. The journal publishes empirical, theoretical, and position papers; book reviews; and critical essays. Analyses of sport from diverse theoretical and methodological perspectives are encouraged. Submissions concerned with play, games, exercise, leisure, and body culture are welcomed.

The journal Sport Sciences for Health publishes reports of experimental and clinical research on the physiology and pathophysiology of physical exercise with special focus on the mechanism through which exercise can prevent or treat chronic-degenerative disease, contributing to health maintainance in the population.Original contributions on biochemical, physiological, pathophysiological and clinical aspects of research on physical exercise in the prevention of diabetes mellitus and insulin resistance syndrome, cardiovascular diseases, inflammation, some forms of cancer are welcome as well as studies identifying the 'dose' of physical exercise suitable for prevention and the 'dose' suitable for treatment of specific diseases, for the different sport activities.Reports are published in the form of original articles, short communications and letters to the Editor. Invited reviews and editorials are also published. Finally workshop reports are also welcome in Sport Sciences for Health.

14/31 (Hospitality, Leisure, Sport & Tourism) Sport, Education and Society is an international journal which provides a focal point for the publication of social science research on pedagogy, policy and the body in society and the wide range of associated social, cultural, political and ethical issues in physical activity, sport and health. The journal will concentrate both on the forms, contents and contexts of physical education, sport and health education found in schools, colleges and other sites of formal education, and on the pedagogies of play, callisthenics, gymnastics, sport and leisure found in familial contexts, various sports clubs, the leisure industry, private fitness and health studios, dance schools and rehabilitation centres. It will also consider various media (e.g., TV, film, web sites) as forms of pedagogy and report their impact on understandings of the body in society. Sport, Education and Society therefore wishes to encourage contributions not only from social scientists and educationalists studying the relationships between pedagogy, 'the body' and society but also from all professionals with interests in theoretical and empirical interests relating to policy, curriculum, social inclusion, equity and identity, and progressive educational development in physical activity, health and sport. Listen to John Evans, Editor of Sport, Education and Society introduce the journal.

View a list of the latest free articles available from Sports BiomechanicsSports Biomechanics is the scientific journal of the International Society of Biomechanics in Sports (ISBS). The journal sets out to generate knowledge to improve human performance and reduce the incidence of injury, and to communicate this knowledge to scientists, coaches, clinicians, teachers, and participants. The target performance realms include not only the conventional areas of sports and exercise, but also fundamental motor skills and other highly specialized human movements such as dance (both sport and artistic).Sports Biomechanics is unique in its emphasis on a broad biomechanical spectrum of human performance including, but not limited to, technique, skill acquisition, training, strength and conditioning, exercise, coaching, teaching, equipment, modeling and simulation, measurement, and injury prevention and rehabilitation. As well as maintaining scientific rigour, there is a strong editorial emphasis on 'reader friendliness'. By emphasising the practical implications and applications of research, the journal seeks to benefit practitioners directly. Sports Biomechanics publishes papers in four sections: Original Research, Reviews, Teaching, and Methods and Theoretical Perspectives.DisclaimerTaylor & Francis makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the 8220;Content8221;) contained in its publications.

Sports Engineering is an international journal publishing original papers on the application of engineering and science to sport. The journal intends to fill the niche area which lies between classical engineering and sports science and aims to bridge the gap between the analysis of the equipment and of the athlete. Areas of interest include the mechanics and dynamics of sport, the analysis of movement, instrumentation, equipment design, surface interaction, materials and modelling. These topics may be applied to technology in almost any sport. The journal will be of particular interest to Engineering, Physics, Mathematics and Sports Science Departments and will act as a forum where research, industry and the sports sector can exchange knowledge and innovative ideas.
