Abstract

Sheppard M N (2012) Histopathology 60, 381–396 The fittest person in the morgue? The cardiovascular benefits of regular physical activity are well established (J. Sci. Med. Sport,7, 2004, 6). James Fixx wrote the best‐selling book on running entitled The Complete Book of Running (1977), which led to an increase in popularity. However, when Fixx collapsed and died suddenly while running in 1984, people began to consider the adverse effects of sport on cardiac conditions. Going back in time, in 490 bc Phidippides, a young Greek messenger, ran 26.2 miles from Marathon to Athens delivering the news of the Greek victory over the Persians, and immediately collapsed and died. This is probably the first recorded incident of sudden death of an athlete running a marathon. According to Noakes (Med. Sci. Sports Exerc.,19, 1987, 187), one of the earliest reports on the association between running and cardiac risk was published in 1909, which claimed that school cross‐country races over one mile for boys below the age of 19 years were totally inappropriate, and that the associated stress will cause damage in the heart and other organs. Death in athletes is highly publicized and has a substantial emotional impact on the community at large, given that athletes are perceived as the healthiest segment of society.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
