The effect of a competitive soccer match on maximal power performance was assessed on 19 members of an NCAA Division III female soccer team. Performance testing occurred within 24 hours prior to the game (Pre), immediately postgame (IP), and 24 hours postgame (24P). Each subject performed a squat jump (SJ) and countermovement jump (CMJ). Comparisons between starters (n = 10) and nonstarters (n = 9) revealed no between-group differences in power performance at IP, but starters were found to have significantly lower power and force measures at 24P than nonstarters. There were significant correlations between playing time and peak force during the SJ at 24P (r = -0.47), and between playing time and peak power during the SJ at IP (r = -0.57) and 24P (r = -0.51), and during the CMJ at IP (r = -0.49). Comparisons between different positions revealed no differential fatigue patterns. Results of this study show that power performance appears to be maintained for the duration of a soccer match but declines significantly within 24 hours after the match. Position played does not appear to affect performance decrements seen at 24 hours postmatch.

This study was mainly aimed at exploring the effect of gender on the patterns of Physical Activty (PA) in older people living in an area of exceptional longevity, the so-called Sardinian Blue Zone. Furthermore, the study intended to investigate the nature of the relationships among PA metrics, cognitive measures, and age. One hundred and nine community-dwelling participants (M = 81.

Background: As induction of labor increases in the United States, safe, effective outpatient cervical ripening has been explored as a method to decrease the inpatient time burden. The most effective method of outpatient mechanical cervical ripening remains unclear.
Objective: To evaluate if Dilapan-S is non-inferior to cervical balloon for outpatient cervical ripening (CR) based on change in Bishop score.

Sarcopenia refers to a neuromuscular disease characterized by age-related declines in muscle mass and function. Since Professor Rosenberg first introduced the concept of sarcopenia in 1989, numerous operational paradigms have been proposed, tested, and validated against negative outcomes. The most recent recommendations advocate that dynapenia, or reduced of muscle strength, should be used alongside low muscle mass for the identification of sarcopenia.

Activated sludge enriches vast amounts of micropollutants (MPs) when wastewater is treated, posing potential environmental risks. While standard methods typically focus on target analysis of known compounds, the identity, structure, and concentration of transformation products (TPs) of MPs remain less understood. Here, we employed a novel approach that integrates machine learning for the quantification of nontarget TPs with advanced target, suspect, and nontarget screening strategies.

As modification strategies are actively developed, the photothermal effect is expected to be a viable way to enhance the PEC water splitting performance. Herein, we demonstrate that the photothermal polyaniline (PANI) layer inserted between CoF cocatalyst and BiVO can enhance the photocurrent density of pure BiVO by 3.50 times.
