Abstract
ABSTRACT Introduction: Identifying and measuring the concentration of Triamcinolone (TA) in biological fluids is essential, especially for patients receiving intensive antibiotic medication. Objective: Make a sensor for electrochemical detection of Triamcinolone (TA) as an anabolic steroid in sports using copper oxide nanomaterials-reduced graphene oxide nanoparticles (CuNPs/rGO). Method: After preparing rGO nanoparticles on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) using the modified Hummers technique, Cu NPs were deposited on rGO/GCE. The applicability of Cu NPs/rGO/GCE was investigated to determine the TA concentration in a real sample that had been prepared. Results: The deposited irregular Cu NPs evidenced a diameter of about 80 nm, in agreement with SEM morphological investigations. Amperometric studies revealed that the linear range, detection limits, and sensitivity of CuNPs/rGO/GCE as a TA sensor were 10 to 80 µM, 10nM, and 0.06584 µA/µM, respectively. Conclusion: The results revealed that the RSD and recovery values were valid, providing adequate quality and reliability for practical analysis of real samples using Cu NPS/rGO/GCE. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.

Abstract
Probing for evidence of the administration of prohibited therapeutics, drugs and/or drug candidates as well as the use of methods of doping in doping control samples is a central assignment of anti-doping laboratories. In order to accomplish the desired analytical sensitivity, retrospectivity, and comprehensiveness, a considerable portion of anti-doping research has been invested into studying metabolic biotransformation and elimination profiles of doping agents. As these doping agents include lower molecular mass drugs such as e.g. stimulants and anabolic androgenic steroids, some of which further necessitate the differentiation of their natural/endogenous or xenobiotic origin, but also higher molecular mass substances such as e.g. insulins, growth hormone, or siRNA/anti-sense oligonucleotides, a variety of different strategies towards the identification of employable and informative metabolites have been developed. In this review, approaches supporting the identification, characterization, and implementation of metabolites exemplified by means of selected doping agents into routine doping controls are presented, and challenges as well as solutions reported and published between 2010 and 2020 are discussed.

SporTRIA study-a multicentre trial protocol for excretion kinetics of triamcinolone acetonide following sport-related intra-articular injections in knees: definitions of the washout periods. BMJ Open 2021; 11:e047548. [PMID: 34108168 PMCID: PMC8191621 DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2020-047548] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2020] [Accepted: 05/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intra-articular (IA) and peri-articular glucocorticoid (GC) injections are common in sports medicine. However, from 1 January 2022, all injectable GC routes (including IA administration) will be prohibited in-competition by World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). Owing to these rules, an IA GC treatment out-of-competition could result in an adverse analytical finding in-competition if the washout period is not clearly defined. The aim of this study is to determine the urinary excretion profile of triamcinolone acetonide following IA injection to strengthen the definition of the washout periods. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a prospective multicentre trial to include 20 subjects who practice sports for at least 4 hours/week and present a knee disorder requiring IA injection of triamcinolone acetonide for therapeutic purposes. To determine the excretion profile of triamcinolone acetonide in both urine and blood following IA injection of the drug, We will perform 20 urinary tests and 20 dried blood spot tests, two prior to GC injection (baseline) and the last one at 35 days. Analyses will be performed by the French antidoping agency laboratory in accordance with WADA standards and regulations. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study protocol was approved by the French ethics committee (CPP Sud Est III-Lyon-2020-070B on 06 October 2020). All subjects will provide written informed consent. The results of this study will be accessible in peer-reviewed publication and be presented at academic conference. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04574232.

A novel approach to improve detection of glucocorticoid doping in sport with new guidance for physicians prescribing for athletes. Br J Sports Med 2021; 55:bjsports-2020-103512.

Abstract
The systemic effect of glucocorticoids (GCs) following injectable routes of administration presents a potential risk to both improving performance and causing harm to health in athletes. This review evaluates the current GC antidoping regulations defined by the World Anti-Doping Agency and presents a novel approach for defining permitted and prohibited use of glucocorticoids in sport based on the pharmacological potential for performance enhancement (PE) and risk of adverse effects on health. Known performance-enhancing doses of glucocorticoids are expressed in terms of cortisol-equivalent doses and thereby the dose associated with a high potential for PE for any GC and route of administration can be derived. Consequently, revised and substance-specific laboratory reporting values are presented to better distinguish between prohibited and permitted use in sport. In addition, washout periods are presented to enable clinicians to prescribe glucocorticoids safely and to avoid the risk of athletes testing positive for a doping test.
