Movement patterns and player load: insights from professional padel.

Quantifying competition load with kinematic variables from inertial devices provides critical insights into player performance, a practice well adopted especially in team sports. This study aimed to analyse load variables in elite padel players, distinguishing between match winners and losers. Data were collected from 83 players across 23 professional circuit matches.

identification of Nipah virus protein inhibitors from secondary metabolites of medicinal plants using a high-throughput virtual screening approach.

The Nipah virus (NiV), a highly pathogenic zoonotic virus of the family, poses significant threats with its alarming mortality rates and pandemic potential. Despite historical cases, effective therapeutics remain elusive, prompting urgent exploration of potential antivirals. In this study, a structure-based virtual screening approach was employed to evaluate 690 metabolites sourced from ten medicinal plants () for their antiviral activity against Nipah virus proteins.

Transcriptome analyses of mRNA and circular RNA reveal dietary supplementation with freeze-dried Lactiplantibacillus plantarum primes immune memory of Whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) against pathogens.

The lack of a classical adaptive immunity renders the development of disease control and prevention measures in shrimp challenging. In this study, the concept of trained immunity was exploited in the development of a feed supplement. Penaeus vannamei shrimp was fed with feed supplemented with freeze-dried whole culture of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (FD-LAB) for 15 days.
