  • Relation Between Exercise Performance and Blood Storage Condition and Storage Time in Autologous Blood Doping
    biology Review Relation between Exercise Performance and Blood Storage Condition and Storage Time in Autologous Blood Doping Benedikt Seeger and Marijke Grau * Molecular and Cellular Sports Medicine, German Sport University Cologne, 50677 Cologne, Germany; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-221-4982-6116 Simple Summary: Autologous blood doping (ABD) refers to sampling, storage, and re-infusion of one’s own blood to improve circulating red blood cell (RBC) mass and thus the oxygen transport and finally the performance capacity. This illegal technique employed by some athletes is still difficult to detect. Hence knowledge of the main effects of ABD is needed to develop valid detection methods. Performance enhancement related to ABD seems to be well documented in the literature, but applied study designs might affect the outcome that was analyzed herein. The majority of recent studies investigated the effect of cold blood storage at 4 ◦C, and only few studies focused on cryopreservation, although it might be suspected that cryopreservation is above all applied in sport. The storage duration—the time between blood sampling and re-infusion—varied in the reported literature. In most studies, storage duration might be too short to fully restore the RBC mass. It is thus concluded that most reported studies did not display common practice and that the reported performance outcome might be affected by these two variables. Thus, knowledge of the real effects of ABD, as applied in sport, on performance and associated parameters are needed to develop reliable detection techniques. Abstract: Professional athletes are expected to continuously improve their performance, and some might also use illegal methods—e.g., autologous blood doping (ABD)—to achieve improvements.

PASSING THE BATON: TRACK SUPERSTAR MARION JONES' DUTY AND LIABILITY TO HER OLYMPIC RELAY TEAMMATES I. INTRODUCTION In October of 2007, millions of avid sports fanatics, track and field aficionados, and Marion Jones enthusiasts felt the pain of their hearts breaking as the gold medal track star admitted to taking performance enhancing drugs.' The Olympian confessed to ingesting the steroid tetrahydrogestrinone (THG or "the clear") before the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia. 2 After seven years of denial, Marion Jones pled guilty to lying to federal investigators about using the ster- oids and was subsequently punished by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) and the International Olympic Com- mittee (IOC).3 The question then remains:

More surprisingly, no athletes were listed among the 300 or so entries, either in a generalist or specific category: perhaps, because of the significance of amateurism as a prevailing ethos in sport until the 1960s.

    Volume 12, Number 2 {coverage from July 1 Æ December 31, 2010} AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION DECISIONS United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) v. LaShawn Merritt, AAA No. 771900029310 (Oct., 2010). Merritt tested positive for the prohibited substance DHEA and pregnenolone three separate times. Merritt claims that he ingested the substance by accident, but he does admit that he tested positive as a result of ingesting ExtenZe, a product used for enhanced sexual performance. USADA agreed that the positive results were caused by ExtenZe, and as such represent an accidental ingestion. The panel found that Merritt was not significantly negligent and reduced the required two-year ineligibility status to twenty-one months, starting October 28, 2009 and ending July 27, 2011. He is also prohibited from participating in and accessing the U.S. Olympic Training Facilities during this period. United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) v. Kirk O’Bee, AAA No. 771900051509JENF (Oct., 2010). Cyclist O’Bee committed his second anti-doping violation when he tested positive for recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO), eight years after testing positive for testosterone. USADA was also able to prove that O’Bee either used or possessed HGH as early as September 2005, and used testosterone after his first suspension. The panel imposed a lifetime suspension and disqualified his cycling results from October 3, 2005 through July 29, 2009, the date of his suspension from the sport. ANTITRUST LAW Race Tires Am., Inc. v. Hoosier Racing Tire Corp., 614 F.3d 57 (3d Cir. 2010).

  • EL MUNDO Biografía No Autorizada De Alberto Contador (Solomillo
    EL MUNDO Biografía no autorizada de Alberto Contador (solomillo incluido) 7/08/2017 Luis Fernando López Podría ocurrir: Alberto Contador, en su última carrera y en su último día, el próximo 10 de septiembre, sube al podio final de la Vuelta a España y el público le abuchea. Podría ocurrir, pero no va a ocurrir; no veremos a Contador sufrir una escena como las vividas estos días en el Mundial de atletismo, donde el público ha despreciado a Gatlin por su pasado de dopaje con recurrentes pitadas (el silencio a veces es más sonoro). No es el público español más respetuoso que el inglés, no, pues también aquí gusta mucho silbar; basta repasar las finales de Copa del Rey, el cariño que una parte de la grada le dispensa a Piqué cuando acude con la selección o algunas sinfonías antes de partidos de La Roja (oé, oé). Pero a Contador no se le pitará. Madrid/España no es Londres. Y bien está. Pero, ¿le aplaudimos como si nada? Más preguntas: ¿Tiene derecho al perdón quien se ha dopado? Si somos capaces de 'olvidar' crímenes u ofensas mayores, ¿por qué no íbamos a hacerlo con un deportista que se equivocó/nos engañó una vez? Pero, claro, depende. ¿Cuántas veces se equivocó y nos engañó Contador? Una noche de julio de 2006, apenas un mes después de ser detenido en la 'operación Puerto' como cabecilla de una trama de dopaje, Eufemiano Fuentes, un 'teórico' de las autotransfusiones con EPO, acudió a 'El Larguero' para explicarse, al fin. De lo que dijo, a quien esto escribe, que es periodista pero no de los especializados en ciclismo, le sorprendió algo.

The Determination of Offer Ad Personam ......... 130 Both CISG Article 14(1) and PECL Article 2.101 recognize the traditional "offer-acceptance" model of contracting.' The PECL also has a provision, Article 2.211, which deals with con- tracts not concluded through the traditional offer and accept- ance mode. Offer-acceptance, the only model explicitly addressed in the CISG, is the principal model in most legal systems of the world. However, it seems to be universally agreed that rules on the traditional model of offer-acceptance can be applied by way of analogy to other models, insofar as this is reasonable and with appropriate adaptations.
