The combination of physical activities and individual skills in sports creates an entertaining and competitive environment governed by a set of rules. In today's world, sports attract significant attention and are approached differently by various groups. Inevitably, injuries occur in sports, significantly impacting an athlete's performance and ability to participate in exercises and competitions. Addressing this issue, one of the crucial measures involves restoring the athlete's ability to engage in sports and compete. Sports rehabilitation serves as a treatment to mitigate the effects of injuries, and when combined with surgery, it can expedite the recovery process. Therefore, the primary objective of this study is to utilize a biocompatible technology for synthesizing zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles in sports rehabilitation, ensuring minimal harm to the environment.

There is always a risk of injury in sports. With the recent development of the economy, there have been more opportunities to be exposed to risks, and safety issues to prevent accidents have emerged as a central task. However, intensive research on trauma is lacking in the oral & maxillofacial area associated with sports. It has only been partially introduced, with a comprehensive survey of whole-body trauma or mixed with various trauma in the oral & maxillofacial area. In this paper, the overall content of trauma in the oral & maxillofacial area caused by sports activities will be reviewed for clinicians.

Wearing the right sportswear is one of the essential points in exercising, which is mainly neglected. Sportswear should be suitable for the ambient temperature and not cause more heat or cold in the athlete's body. On the other hand, increased sweating and blood circulation during exercise should not cause fatigue or heatstroke in the athlete. Nanotechnology has grown significantly in the field of producing more efficient equipment in the field of sports. The increase in demand in sports for complete sports equipment has revealed the necessity of using the highest quality materials in this sector. In the world of championship sports, a minor change in equipment can lead to significant changes in causing failure and victory. Since the sole is the most critical part of sports shoes, with the introduction of nanotechnology and nanocomposites, it is possible to help athletes rush and increase their sense of calm and satisfaction. Using nanocomposites in the soles of shoes can improve some of their characteristics, prevent the smell and sweat of shoes, and induce water repellency in these shoes. In this research, titanium dioxide (TiO₂) nanocomposite, along with cellulose, has been used to create antibacterial and hydrophobic properties in the soles of sports shoes. The synthesized nanocomposite has been synthesized using the least amount of chemicals, which shows this method's easy and cost-effective synthesis.

Thigh injuries are relatively uncommon sports injuries. But the incidence is increasing as many kinds of sports activity develops. And the prompt recognition and treatment of these injuries are critical to prevent prolonged disability. Also, despite the simple anatomic structure of the thigh, this region is finely tuned muscular mechanism with both anterior and posterior muscles crossing two joints. So the contracture of thigh muscle can result in not only decreased range of motion of the knee and hip joint, but also painful lumbar spine. So we reviewed recent literatures about the type of thigh injuries, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of female college students' participation in dance sports on their perception of body attractiveness and their desire for exercise. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, female college students residing in Gwangju Metropolitan City and Jeonnam in 2022 were selected as the population, and a total of 390 students were selected as study subjects using cluster random sampling. A total of 300 participants, 170 participants in dance sports and 130 non-participants, were selected as study subjects, excluding 90 copies of double entry and insincere data. As a survey tool, the questionnaire whose reliability and validity had already been verified in previous domestic and foreign studies was modified and supplemented to suit the purpose of this study. The collected data were computerized according to the purpose of analysis using SPSS Windows 20.0 Version, a statistical program. The results obtained through this procedure are as follows. First, there were partial differences in physical evaluation according to demographic characteristics. Second, there was a partial difference in exercise desire according to demographic characteristics. Third, physical evaluation was found to partially affect exercise desire.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of university students' media sports immersion experience through social media on exercise immersion and exercise continuation. This research target was first selected as a population of university students who have contacted media sports aged 20 or older living in Gwangju Metropolitan City in 2019. The sampling procedure was divided into five parts: Dong-gu, Seo-gu, Nam-gu, Buk-gu, and Gwangsan-gu in Gwangju, and 300 men and women were sampled using cluster random sampling. After individually entering coded data into the computer, the statistical program (SPSS Windows.20.0 Version) was used. The results obtained through this research process are as follows. First, it was found that university students' immersion to media sports had a partial effect on their commitment to exercise. Second, it was found that university students' immersion in media sports had a partial effect on the continuation of the exercise. Third, it was found that college students' exercise commitment has a partial effect on exercise continuation.
