Popis: Background: Neurological dysfunction is a key medical concern in professional sportsmen (PSM). We investigated whether saliva S100B concentrations in PSM and healthy controls are modified before and after training. Methods: We conducted a case-control-study in 75 patients (25 PSM vs 50 controls) in which S100B saliva concentrations were expressed as absolute values and percentage of change (%) from samples drawn before (T0) and after (T1) training. Results: No differences (P>0.05) between groups were found regarding clinical, monitoring and laboratory parameters. S100B both in PSM and controls was higher at T1 when compared to TO (P
