Classifying batted ball outcomes from Division I collegiate baseball players.

Modern technology challenges anecdotal beliefs on baseball performance. The study's purpose examines these beliefs by classifying batted ball outcomes. Three categories of independent variables (anthropometry, in-game situation, technique-based), from 1,922 batted ball outcomes produced by 230 players, were used to classify the likelihood of hits during 2021 college baseball games.

Impact of Exercise-Induced Strains and Nutrition on Bone Mineral Density in Spaceflight and on the Ground.

Bone mineral density (BMD) is a measure of skeletal health that may foretell disorders like osteoporosis. To reduce bone losses on Earth, treatments include exercise, diet, and drugs. Each impact osteoblast and osteoclast activity dictates skeletal remodeling and subsequent BMD changes.

Older patient participation in discharge medication communication: an observational study.

Objective: To describe the extent to which older patients participate in discharge medication communication, and identify factors that predict patient participation in discharge medication communication.

Setting: An Australian metropolitan tertiary hospital.

Relationship Between Research Culture and Research Activity of Medical Doctors: A Survey and Audit.

Purpose: To describe the research capacity and culture, and research activity (publications and new projects) of medical doctors across a health service and determine if the research activity of specialty groups correlated with their self-reported "team" level research capacity and culture.

Methods: Cross-sectional, observational survey and audit of medical doctors at a tertiary health service in Queensland. The Research Capacity and Culture (RCC) validated survey was used to measure self-reported research capacity/culture at organisation, team and individual levels, and presence of barriers and facilitators to research.
