Abstract

Modern football is characterized by high-intensity match demands, complex tactical structures and increasing requirements for individual player performance. These trends necessitate the application of objective performance monitoring tools within long-term athlete development systems. However, despite the growing use of technological solutions in elite football, limited research has examined the integrated application of physiological, morphological and match-performance indicators across different stages of long-term football training.

The purpose of this study was to scientifically substantiate the effectiveness of integrating bioimpedance analysis, heart rate monitoring and match analysis technologies into the long-term training system of football players. The study involved youth football players at different stages of sports development. A pedagogical experiment was conducted using bioimpedance analysis to assess body composition, Polar Team2 heart rate monitoring to evaluate training intensity zones, and the InStat performance analysis system to quantify technical and tactical match indicators.

The results demonstrated significant improvements in speed, power and anaerobic performance indicators (8.67–16.07%), reductions in body fat percentage (11–12%), and enhanced match efficiency, including a 16% increase in passing effectiveness. The integrated monitoring approach enabled individualized training adjustments and improved the alignment between training load and competitive demands.

The findings confirm that the combined use of physiological, morphological and performance analysis technologies provides a reliable scientific basis for optimizing long-term football training. The proposed integrative model enhances training individualization, supports evidence-based coaching decisions and contributes to sustainable athlete development.

Abstract

Atherosclerotic disease significantly impacts patients with type 2 diabetes, who often present with recalcitrant peripheral ulcers. The angiosome model of the foot presents an opportunity to perform direct angiosome-targeted endovascular interventions to maximise both wound healing and limb salvage. A systematic review was performed, with 17 studies included in the final review. Below-the-knee endovascular interventions present significant technical challenges, with technical success depending on the length of lesion being treated and the number of angiosomes that require treatment. Wound healing was significantly improved with direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty, as was limb salvage, with a significant increase in survival without major amputation. Indirect angioplasty, where the intervention is applied to collateral vessels to the angiosomes, yielded similar results to direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty. Applying the angiosome model of the foot in direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty improves outcomes for patients with recalcitrant diabetic foot ulcers in terms of primary wound healing, mean time for complete wound healing and major amputation-free survival.
