Abstract

Background: Musculoskeletal complaints are widespread among undergraduate students and are influenced by a number of modifiable lifestyle factors. While it has been shown that physical activity and sedentary behavior influence musculoskeletal health, the joint impacts of nutritional status and dietary behavior are not well established.Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the association between nutritional status, exercise behavior, dietary behavior and musculoskeletal complaints in undergraduate students.Methods: This quantitative cross-sectional study was performed on 80 undergraduate students recruited by using purposive sampling. Body weight and height were assessed and BMI was calculated. Activity behavior (physical activity level and sitting duration), dietary behavior, healthy food choices and musculoskeletal complaints were assessed by validated questionnaires. Data were examined using descriptive statistics and Spearman’s rank correlation with p < 0.05 as a level of significance.Results: A majority of participants reported normal nutritional status (76.3%), low physical activity (52.5%), moderate sitting duration (51.3%), bad eating behavior (58.8%), and good healthy food choices (48.8%). Physical activity was adversely correlated with musculoskeletal complaints (r s = −0.560, p < 0.001) while sitting duration was positively correlated (r s = 0.440, p < 0.001). Gender, nutritional status, dietary behavior, and selection of healthy food were not significantly associated with musculoskeletal problems (p > 0.05).Conclusion: Musculoskeletal complaints among undergraduate students are strongly associated with physical activity levels and sitting duration. Encouraging regular physical activity and minimizing prolonged sitting could enhance musculoskeletal health within this population.

Abstract

Background: Doping is a major problem in competitive sport, despite stringent anti-doping policies. Recent evidence reveals education is a key preventative approach to enhancing athletes’ awareness, ethical decision-making and long-term engagement with clean sport.Objective: This narrative review intended to consolidate the available research on anti-doping education, athletes’ understanding and prevention tactics in sport.Methods: A narrative literature review was performed using the Scopus database. We selected papers published in English between 2020 and 2025 using keywords linked to anti-doping, education, intervention, and athletes. Fifteen papers were included in the final narrative synthesis according to pre-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria.Results: Athletes’ anti-doping awareness remains inconsistent among athletic demographics despite past exposure to education. Values-based education, anti-doping literacy and athlete-centred educational approaches were consistently more effective than information-based initiatives in the improvement of knowledge, ethical awareness and decision-making . The review also found dietary supplement use was a key contributor to inadvertent doping, highlighting the need for supplement risk education and evidence-based decision making. In addition, sustained anti-doping prevention requires ongoing education, multidisciplinary stakeholder involvement and instructional initiatives customized to particular athlete groups.Conclusion: Anti-doping education should go beyond knowledge transmission and cover ethical values, anti-doping literacy, supplement awareness and context appropriate educational tactics. Continuous, multidisciplinary, and evidence-based educational initiatives are needed to improve clean sport and reduce the number of purposeful and unintentional anti-doping rule infractions.
