Olympic gold medallists Mo Farah, Helen Glover and Justin Rose are among the latest British athletes to have medical files made public by hackers.
The trio are among 26 individuals whose files were published by hackers Fancy Bears on Monday.
Spanish tennis player Rafael Nadal also features in the latest release.
The records mostly detail therapeutic use exemptions (TUEs), which allow banned substances to be taken for athletes' verified medical needs.
There is no suggestion athletes named are involved in any wrongdoing.
The latest release suggests Farah, who completed a second successive Olympic 5,000 and 10,000m double in Rio, had a TUE in October 2008 for the use of triamcinolone - a long-acting synthetic corticosteroid used for the treatment of a number of conditions including eczema, arthritis and allergies.
The 33-year-old also received a TUE in 2014 after he collapsed following training at high altitude and was put on a drip.
Farah has reportedly said he had only ever had one TUE given to him, although it has been suggested he was answering a specific question about his time with Coach Alberto Salazar.
A spokesperson for Farah said the athlete had "nothing to hide".
They added: "He doesn't have a problem with this information being released - as evidenced by the fact that he voluntarily shared his blood data with the Sunday Times last year.
"Mo's medical care is overseen at all times by British Athletics and over the course of his long career he has only ever had two TUEs."
The files were stolen from a World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) database.
Fancy Bears say TUEs are "licenses for doping" and Wada is "corrupt and deceitful".
Wada director general Olivier Niggli has strongly criticised the leak. (bbc.co.uk)
