Rough draft for a focused search for the "athletics" component of an "athletics-related disease" search:

"Athletes"[mesh] OR "athletic injuries"[mesh] OR ("Sports"[mesh] NOT ("Physical Endurance"[Mesh] OR "Physical Fitness"[Mesh])) OR "Dancing"[mesh] OR "Physical Education AND Training"[mesh] OR "swimming pools"[mesh] OR "sports medicine"[mesh] OR gladiator* OR scrum OR scrums OR  rugb* OR "Dancing"[majr] OR "Physical Education AND Training"[majr] OR aerobics[ti] OR calisthenic*[ti] OR "physical education"[ti] OR "physical training"[ti] OR sport[ti] OR sports[ti] OR basketball*[ti] OR baseball*[ti] OR softball*[ti] OR football*[ti] OR volleyball*[ti] OR lacrosse[ti] OR squash[ti] OR hockey[ti] OR soccer[ti] OR rugby[ti] OR ((play[ti] OR plays[ti] OR played[ti] OR playing[ti] OR player*) AND (ball[ti] OR balls[ti] OR tag[ti] OR "hide AND seek"[ti])) OR racquetball*[ti] OR "roller blading"[ti] OR rollerblad*[ti] OR "track AND field"[ti] OR vault*[ti] OR hurdle*[ti] OR marathon*[ti] OR triathlon*[ti] OR biathlon*[ti] OR pentathlon*[ti] OR ((race[ti] OR races[ti]) AND (track OR tracks OR lap OR laps)) OR raced[ti] OR racing[ti] OR races[ti] OR racer*[ti] OR dash[ti] OR dashes[ti] OR dasher*[ti] OR sprint*[ti] OR run[ti] OR runs[ti] OR running[ti] OR ran[ti] OR runner*[ti] OR jog[ti] OR jogs[ti] OR jogging[ti] OR jogged[ti] OR jogger*[ti] OR jump[ti] OR jumps[ti] OR jumped[ti] OR jumping[ti] OR jumper*[ti] OR swimming[ti] OR swim[ti] OR swims[ti] OR swam[ti] OR swimmer*[ti] OR polo[ti] OR canoe*[ti] OR kayak*[ti] OR rowing[ti] OR row[ti] OR rows[ti] OR rowed[ti] OR rower*[ti] OR cycling[ti] OR cyclist*[ti] OR bicycle[ti] OR bicycles[ti] OR bicycling[ti] OR skating[ti] OR skate[ti] OR skates[ti] OR skated[ti] OR skater*[ti] OR ski[ti] OR skis[ti] OR skiing[ti] OR skied[ti] OR skier*[ti] OR snowboard*[ti] OR tennis[ti] OR judo[ti] OR "martial arts"[ti] OR "martial art"[ti] OR (martial[ti] AND (art[ti] OR arts[ti] OR artist*[ti])) OR "martial artists"[ti] OR spar[ti] OR sparred[ti] OR sparring[ti] OR spars[ti] OR jiu-jitsu[ti] OR jiujitsu[ti] OR jujitsu[ti] OR sojutsu[ti] OR defendo[ti] OR karate[ti] OR kenpo[ti] OR kickbox*[ti] OR shinkendo[ti] OR aikido[ti] OR jodo[ti] OR judo[ti] OR kendo[ti] OR kyudo[ti] OR ninjutsu[ti] OR boxing[ti] OR shootfight*[ti] OR taekwondo[ti] OR sumo[ti] OR fencing[ti] OR fence[ti] OR fences[ti] OR fenced[ti] OR fencer*[ti] OR wrestle[ti] OR wrestles[ti] OR wrestling[ti] OR wrestled[ti] OR wrestler*[ti] OR gymnastic*[ti] OR gymnast[ti] OR gymnasts[ti] OR zumba*[ti] OR dance[ti] OR danced[ti] OR dances[ti] OR dancing[ti] OR dancer*[ti] OR ballet[ti] OR ballerina*[ti] OR folkdance*[ti] OR orienteer*[ti] OR hike[ti] OR hikes[ti] OR hiked[ti] OR hiking[ti] OR hiker*[ti] OR climb[ti] OR climbs[ti] OR climbing[ti] OR climber*[ti] OR climbed[ti] OR athlet*[ti] OR gladiator*[ti] OR olympic*[ti] OR para-olympic*[ti] OR play-off* OR playoff*

gladiator* OR scrum* OR  rugb* are parts of athletics-specific disease names
For other searches, terms for venues other than "swimming pools" might be needed.

volunteer mobilization -- keywords

Two term lists that may be useful in searching for articles about mobilizing community support/volunteers.  The second list of terms, a list of terms used for lay health workers, is useful when you're looking for a specific type of worker.  As in "asian allies" OR "asian ally" OR "asian volunteer" OR "asian volunteers"...

engag* OR mobilis* OR mobiliz* OR recruit* OR involv*  OR booster* OR cheerleader* OR allies OR ally OR volunteer*

"remote" OR isolated  can cause problems with irrelevant results.  However, they work in some searches.   The following "isolate ___" OR "remote ____" phrases may work better  in some searches -- 

“remote area” OR “remote areas” OR “remote region” OR “remote regions” OR “isolated area” OR “isolated areas”  OR "isolated region" OR "isolated regions"  OR "remote location" OR "remote locations" OR "isolated location" OR "isolated locations" OR  "remote site" OR "remote sites" OR "isolated site" OR "isolated sites" 


In some searches the terms -- 
nonurban OR nonmetropolitan OR "non-urban" OR "non-metropolitan"  
-- may be important.  However, these may retrieve content concernign suburban areas.
 

Depending on the search topic, the searcher may wish to OR in 

--the names of native tribes and/or native peoples, e.g. 

eskimo* OR "first people" OR "first peoples" OR aborigin* ...

-- terms for migrant laborers

migrant* OR 

-- terms for other people groups who tend to live in rural settings

amish OR hutterite* ...

-- names of various farm animals, farm equipment, farm buildings, farm activities, crops, diseases associated with farming,  (although depending on other search concepts, some of these might cause retrieval of an overwhelming number of irrelevant results)

primary care -- keywords

("primary care" OR "family practice" OR "family physician" OR "family physicians" OR "general practice" OR "general practitioners" OR "general practitioner" OR pediatric* OR paediatric* OR "internal medicine" OR "personal physician")

Nurse practitioners and physicians assistants can specialize.  However, if other search concepts specify remote geographic areas where specialists are less common, it might be safe to OR in terms for nurse practitioners and physician's assistants:

"nurse practitioner" OR "nurse practitioners" OR "advanced practice nurse" OR "advanced practice nurses" OR "physicians assistant" OR "physicians assistants" OR "physician assistant" OR "physician assistants" OR "physician's assistant" OR "physician's assistants"

South Asia -- keywords

I haven't actually used this search.  I was asked for a list of south asia terms and came up with these quickly.  They're based on the broadest definition of south asia, and not all terms will be useful to all users.  Also I've omitted a few terms that are, character for character but not in meaning, equivalent to commonly used English terms/names (e.g. karen, male).

"south asia" OR "southern asia" OR "Diego Garcia" OR Afghanistan* OR Ahmedabad* OR Aldabra* OR Amritsar OR Arabian Sea Asomiya OR Assamese OR Austro-Asiatic OR Bahawalpur* OR Balochi OR Baluchi OR Bangalor* OR Bangladesh* OR Barod* OR bengal* OR BIOT OR Bhutan* OR Bodo* OR Brahmij* OR "British Indian Ocean Territory" OR Burma OR Burma OR Burmese OR Burmese OR Calcutt* OR Ceylon* OR Chagos OR Chagossians OR Chennai* OR Cochin* OR Colombo* OR Dari* OR Delhi* OR Desroch* OR Devanagar* OR Dhaka* OR Dhiveh* OR "Diego Garcia" OR Dogri OR Dravidian* OR Dzongkh* OR Farquhar* OR Folhavah* OR gujarat* OR Gurmukhij* OR Gwalior* OR Himalay* OR Hindi OR Hindu* OR Hollhav* OR Hyderabad* OR Hydrabad* OR India OR "Indian Ocean" OR "Indian Plate" OR Indo-Aryan OR Indo-Gangetic OR Indo-Iranian OR "Indus River" OR Iran OR Iranian OR Islamabad* OR Jammu* OR Jingph* OR Kabul* OR Kalat* OR Kannad* OR Karach* OR Kashmir* OR Kathmand* OR Khayrpur* OR Konkan* OR "Kuen Lun" OR Kushan* OR Lahor* OR Lakshadweep* OR Lhas* OR Maithil* OR Malayalam* OR Maldiv* OR Manipur* OR Marath* OR Maurit* OR Moghul* OR Mon OR Mumbai OR Mysor* OR Nepal* OR Oriy* OR pakistan* OR Pashti OR Pashtu OR Pashtuns OR Persian* OR Perso-arabi*.

Health Care Workers -- keywords and MeSH

Not all terms in this search statement will be relevant to all searches.  The searcher should, of course, remove all terms not relevant to his/her search. 

Some of the search terms are not specific for to healthcare.  However, when these terms are used in PubMed, most records retrieved concern workers in healthcare institutions.  If one uses the statement below and finds that lots of records concerning workers in non-healthcare situtations are being retrieved, one could then create a compound search term that includes the less specific terms, as in
 ((hospital*[tiab] OR clinic[tiab] OR clinics[tiab] OR inpatient* OR outpatient* OR healthcare OR "health care" OR "longterm care" OR medical ....) AND (worker* OR staff OR personnel[tiab] OR manager* OR administrator* OR supervisor* OR intern* OR interns* OR resident* OR residents* OR technician* OR librarian* OR housekeeper*......))
The compound search term could then be OR'd in with the more specific terms.  

(physician*[tiab] OR doctor*[tiab] OR allopath OR allopaths OR osteopath OR osteopaths OR homeopath OR homeopaths OR practitioner* OR specialist* OR generalist* OR "medical student" OR "medical students" OR "house officer" OR "house officers" OR Resident OR residents OR intern[tiab] OR interns[tiab] OR nurse[tiab] OR nurses[tiab] OR "nursing assistant" OR "nursing assistants" OR "nurse aide" OR "nurses aide" OR "nurse aides" OR "nurses aides" OR orderly OR orderlies OR dietician* OR psychologist* OR counselor* OR therapist* OR pharmacist* OR dentist*[tiab] OR hygeinist* OR phlebotomist* OR chiropracter* OR acupuncturist* OR anaesthesiologist* OR anesthesiologist* OR anaesthetist* OR anesthetist* OR perfusionist* OR surgeon*[tiab] OR pediatrician* OR paediatrician* OR obstetrician* OR gynecologist* OR gynaecologist* OR radiologist* OR sonographer* OR cardiologist* OR gastroenterologist* OR hepatologist* OR endocrinologist* OR diabetologist* OR internist* OR hospitalist* OR intensivist* OR rheumatologist* OR immunologist* OR dermatologist* OR allergist* OR otolaryngologist* OR otorhinolaryngologist* OR oncologist* OR hematologist* OR haematologist* OR orthopedist* OR orthopaedist* OR physiatrist* OR podiatrist* OR technician* OR pathologist* OR diener* OR cytologist* OR cytogeneticist* OR geneticist* OR hematopathologist* OR haematopathologist* OR neurologist* OR neurosurgeon* OR ophthalmologist* OR optician* OR urologist* OR nephrologist* OR pulmonologist* OR neonatologist* OR psychiatrist* OR administrator* OR supervisor* OR receptionist* OR personnel[tiab] OR team OR staff OR worker* OR researcher OR researchers OR librarian* OR informationist* OR housekeeper* OR janitor* OR officer* OR responder* OR paramedic* OR laboratorian* OR coordinator* OR navigator* OR manager* OR attendant* OR cashier OR cashiers OR accountant OR accountants OR "Health Personnel"[Mesh] OR "Education, Medical"[Mesh] OR "Students, Health Occupations"[Mesh])

This search includes some terms not yet included in PubMed and two, as yet unrecognized phrases. The tribe names not yet included in PubMed may be included in the future and the automatic ANDing together of words in the two unrecognized phrases works -- so I've left the search statement as is. Please comment if you know alternate or correct spellings for tribe names and/or additional north American tribe names.
