Apunts Sports Medicine is a quarterly, international peer‑reviewed scientific journal focusing on sports medicine, performance, injury prevention, clinical sports care, rehabilitation, and exercise physiology. Published by Elsevier España on behalf of the Consell Català de l’Esport (Catalan Sports Council), and involving Futbol Club Barcelona’s Barça Innovation Hub, the journal explores the impact of high‑performance sport on the human body, with special emphasis on team sports, muscle and tendon injuries, injury mechanisms, and safe sports participation across populations. Articles undergo a double‑anonymous external peer review process and include original applied research, clinical case studies, consensus guidelines, reviews, commentaries, and letters that combine scientific rigor with clinical relevance. Apunts Sports Medicine supports the translation of evidence into practical strategies for clinicians, coaches, and exercise professionals. It also addresses behavior and physical activity considerations during specific health conditions or illness, contributing to safer engagement in sport and exercise. Indexed in major databases including Scopus, Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), ScienceDirect, and Web of Science, the journal’s open access model enables wide global dissemination of current advances in sports medicine knowledge.
