Exploring the relationship between trunk muscles and lower limb injuries in Australian badminton players.

Due to its dynamic nature, lower limb injuries are common in badminton. Overuse injuries of the knee, including tendon related conditions, are the most common. During jumping and landing, force transference and dissipation through the trunk is required, with the trunk muscles playing a vital role.

Predicted genetic burden and frequency of phenotype-associated variants in the horse.

Disease-causing variants have been identified for less than 20% of suspected equine genetic diseases. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) allows rapid identification of rare disease causal variants. However, interpreting the clinical variant consequence is confounded by the number of predicted deleterious variants that healthy individuals carry (predicted genetic burden).

Perceived Impact of Digital Health Maturity on Patient Experience, Population Health, Health Care Costs, and Provider Experience: Mixed Methods Case Study.

Background: Health care organizations understand the importance of new technology implementations; however, the best strategy for implementing successful digital transformations is often unclear. Digital health maturity assessments allow providers to understand the progress made toward technology-enhanced health service delivery. Existing models have been criticized for their lack of depth and breadth because of their technology focus and neglect of meaningful outcomes.

Genetic Variation and the Distribution of Variant Types in the Horse.

Genetic variation is a key contributor to health and disease. Understanding the link between an individual's genotype and the corresponding phenotype is a major goal of medical genetics. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) within and across populations enables highly efficient variant discovery and elucidation of the molecular nature of virtually all genetic variation.

Trunk muscle size and function in volleyball players with and without injuries to the head, neck and upper limb.

Objective: To investigate trunk muscle size and function in elite and community volleyball players with and without a history of head, neck or upper limb injury.

Design: Cross-sectional observational study.

Setting: Volleyball training camp or training sessions.
