Haynes, H, Tinsley, GM, Swafford, SH, Compton, AT, Moore, J, Donahue, PT, and Graybeal, AJ. Mobile anthropometry in Division I baseball athletes: evaluation of an existing application and the development of new equations. J Strength Cond Res XX(X): 000-000, 2024-The purpose of this study was to evaluate the agreement between mobile application and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-derived body composition parameters in a group of Division I (DI) collegiate baseball athletes and to develop new equations for this population using this mobile technique.

Article Synopsis
  • A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of malaria infection during the first trimester of pregnancy on adverse outcomes for mothers and babies in Kenya, Zambia, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
  • Using rigorous testing methods, researchers found specific risks such as higher rates of preterm birth and anemia later in pregnancy among affected women.
  • The findings suggest that first-trimester malaria is linked to increased prevalence of anemia and highlight the need for more research on its impact on other pregnancy complications like preterm birth and low birth weight.

Prior studies have investigated the efficacy of a single 1 min bout of stair-stepping on reducing postprandial blood glucose (BG) in the morning, but none have investigated this effect in the evening when glycaemic responses are larger due to circadian regulation and β-cell responsiveness. This work investigated the efficacy of a 1 min bout of self-selected, low-intensity stair-stepping performed in the evening on reducing the change from baseline to the 60 min time point postprandial BG. Thirty people (43% male, 29 (10) years) participated in a randomized crossover-controlled trial.

Repeated antigen exposure leads to T-cell exhaustion, a transcriptionally and epigenetically distinct cellular state marked by loss of effector functions (e.g., cytotoxicity, cytokine production/release), up-regulation of inhibitory receptors (e.

The tubulin code hypothesis predicts that tubulin tails create programs for selective regulation of microtubule-binding proteins, including kinesin motors. However, the molecular mechanisms that determine selective regulation and their relevance in cells are poorly understood. We report selective regulation of budding yeast kinesin-5 motors by the β-tubulin tail.
