Creatine kinase and neuromuscular fatigue responses following differing spells of simulated cricket fast bowling.

The fast-bowling action demands repetitive high-intensity whole body movements, imposing complex physical and perceptual demands on players that vary significantly throughout the season. This study aimed to assess and establish practical methods and metrics for quantifying fatigue after four simulated fast bowling spells. Eleven senior club male fast bowlers (age 27.

Drones delivering automated external defibrillators for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: A scoping review.

Unlabelled: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains a critical health concern, where prompt access to automated external defibrillators (AEDs) significantly improves survival. This scoping review broadly investigates the feasibility and impact of dronedelivered AEDs for OHCA response.

Methods: PubMed, Cochrane, and Web of Science were searched from inception to August 6, 2024, with eligibility broadly including empirical data.

Immunization but not natural infection of horses results in antibody activity against the S protein of Streptococcus equi subsp equi.

Objective: Evaluate the immunogenicity of a vaccine targeting the S protein (Ssee) of Streptococcus equi subsp equi and determine antibody activity against Ssee in horses with strangles.

Methods: The study was designed as a prospective experiment using 20 university-owned Quarter Horses and a cross-sectional serosurvey of 78 privately owned horses with strangles. Horses were immunized IM with 0 (n = 4), 200 (n = 8), or 400 (n = 8) μg of recombinant Ssee at weeks 0, 4, and 12.

Fungating mass on the breast of a male patient.

Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies that can lead to cutaneous metastasis. Dermatopathologists often play an important role in the diagnosis of breast cancer metastasis to the skin. Rarely, dermatopathologists render a histopathologic diagnosis of primary breast cancer.

Breaking down barriers: Call-taker strategies to address caller perception of inappropriateness of cardiopulmonary resuscitation during the emergency ambulance call.

Background: Ambulance call-takers perform the critical role of prompting callers to initiate and continue cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for patients with suspected out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). This study aimed to identify call-taker strategies to address callers' perceptions of CPR 'inappropriateness' (perceiving the patient as dead and beyond help, or as showing signs of life).

Methods: Using a linguistic approach, we analysed 31 calls previously identified as having an inappropriateness barrier to CPR initiation or continuation.
