The incidence of behaviours associated with body checking among youth ice hockey players.
J Sci Med Sport
Laval University, Department of Physical Education, Faculty of Education, Québec, Canada.
Published: September 2012
Objectives: To determine if a difference exists between the incidence and intensity of the physical contacts of Pee Wee (aged 11-12 years) ice hockey players according to whether the players participate in a league in which body checking is permitted (Calgary, Canada) compared to a league in which body checking is not permitted (Québec City, Canada).
Design: Cohort study conducted in Québec City and Calgary during the 2007-2008 Pee Wee ice hockey season.
Methods: Ten games were randomly selected for each city (n=20) and analysed. Games were videotaped and subsequently analysed with a validated observation system allowing quantification of the intensity of the various physical contacts. Incidence rate ratios (RR) based on multivariate Poisson regression were used to compare the physical contacts between provinces. All analyses were controlling for game period, score difference, and zone on the playing surface.
Results: A total of 2418 physical contacts with the trunk and 757 other physical contacts were observed. Very light intensity trunk physical contacts were more frequent in Québec City (adjusted incidence RR [ARR]: 0.68; 95% CI: 0.48-0.97). Very high intensity trunk physical contacts were more frequent in Calgary (ARR: 12.72; 95% CI: 4.48-36.14). Hooking (ARR: 0.89; 95% CI: 0.84-0.95) and slashing (ARR: 0.91; 95% CI: 0.85-0.97) were more frequent in Québec City.
Conclusions: Results suggest that players' behaviours are different in leagues where body checking is permitted compared to leagues where it is not permitted. Policy allowing body checking in Pee Wee ice hockey increases the frequency and intensity of physical contacts.

The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the risk of lower-extremity injury during landing, after catching a basketball in the air for a rebound or a steal. A total of 32 (15 females and 17 males) recreational basketball players were asked to perform 4 different arm-reaching movements during the flight phase: no reaching, left (LAR), right (RAR), and bilateral (BAR) arm reaching. Knee and hip flexion and abduction angles at initial ground contact, peak ground reaction force within 100 milliseconds after contact, and peak moments for the hip and knee joints were analyzed.

Background: Kangaroo mother care (KMC) is recognized as an effective intervention for promoting growth and neurodevelopment in preterm infants, particularly in resource-limited settings. It addresses critical neonatal care needs by facilitating skin-to-skin contact and breastfeeding.
Purpose: This meta-analysis evaluates the impact of KMC on growth parameters and neurobehavioral development in preterm infants, while considering evidence quality.
Mediation of Colloidal Encounter Dynamics by Surface Roughness.

Rigorous understanding of assembly in colloidal systems is crucial to the development of tailored nanostructured materials. Despite extensive studies, a mechanistic understanding of the dynamics governing encounters of colloidal particles remains an ongoing challenge. We study colloidal encounter dynamics by inducing assembly through optical tweezers that impose an external attractive field for cubic-phase sodium yttrium fluoride nanocrystals.
