Cardiac output (Q̇) and leg blood flow (Q̇) can be measured simultaneously with high accuracy using transpulmonary and femoral vein thermodilution with a single-bolus injection. The invasive measure has offered important insight into leg hemodynamics and blood flow distribution during exercise. Despite being the natural modality of exercise in humans, there has been no direct measure of Q̇ while running in humans.

Methods: A cohort study was conducted on 437 hip fracture surgery patients aged ≥ 50 years across 36 participating hospitals from the Australian and New Zealand Hip Fracture Registry Acute Rehabilitation Sprint Audit during June 2022. Study outcomes included hospital LOS and discharge destination.
Aim: To assess the impact of endurance training on skeletal muscle release of H and K.
Methods: Nine participants performed one-legged knee extension endurance training at moderate and high intensities (70%-85% of W), three to four sessions·week for 6 weeks. Post-training, the trained and untrained (control) leg performed two-legged knee extension at low, moderate, and high intensities (40%, 62%, and 83% of W) in normoxia and hypoxia (~4000 m).
A recent advance in the study of emergent magnetic monopoles was the discovery that monopole motion is restricted to dynamical fractal trajectories [J. N. Hallén , , 1218 (2022)], thus explaining the characteristics of magnetic monopole noise spectra [R.
