Background: Previously, we developed a mathematical model capable of predicting pubertal development (PD) through seven anthropometric variables, with an accuracy of 75%. We believe that it is possible to develop a similar model that uses fewer anthropometric measurements and provides greater precision.

Objective: Develop a mathematical model capable of predicting PD through anthropometric variables.

Article Synopsis
  • A study was conducted to examine the link between biological maturation (BM) and cardiac autonomic recovery (CAR) in female volleyball players, comparing younger girls and adult women.
  • The sample included 20 girls aged 11.6 years and 18 women aged 24.5 years, and the research focused on their heart rate recovery after intense sprint training sessions.
  • Results showed that girls exhibited better CAR than women, and within the girls' subgroup, those in the Late-PHV stage had superior CAR compared to those in earlier maturation stages.
