Health Outcomes of Construction Workers Building Infrastructure for Mega-Sporting Events: A Systematic Review of the Literature.
Int J Environ Res Public Health
December 2024
Department of Physical Education and Sport Science, University of Thessaly, Karies, 42100 Trikala, Greece.
Background: Migrant construction workers involved in building infrastructure for mega-sporting events face elevated risks of illness and death. However, specific health outcomes for these workers have not been systematically reviewed, limiting opportunities to identify and address their challenges.
Methods: This study systematically reviewed health outcomes among migrant construction workers involved in mega-sporting events.
Purpose: To examine the physiological, power-duration, nutritional intake and training characteristics of the recent lightweight (- 75 kg) 50+, 60+ and 70 + yr world champion indoor rowers.
Methods: Laboratory assessments, undertaken over 2 visits, examined body composition, pulmonary function, blood lactate/ventilatory landmarks, efficiency, fat/carbohydrate oxidation, primary component time-constant to steady-state [𝜏pc]) and peak oxygen consumption (V̇O2peak). Training, performance and nutritional intake were also reported.
Squash in Los Angeles: Heat Strain and Performance Considerations at the 2028 Olympic Games.
Int J Sports Physiol Perform
January 2025
Department of Sport, Physical Education and Health, Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong.
Background: The Los Angeles 2028 Olympics will mark the debut of squash, a high-intensity sport characterized by repeated efforts, posing potential thermoregulatory challenges. The demanding nature of squash results in substantial metabolic heat production, with consequential heat strain exacerbated by the indoor environment of squash courts, where low to moderate evaporative potential limits effective cooling. Players often experience increased body-heat storage and thermal strain, with muscle cramps (an early warning sign of more severe heat-related illnesses) commonly observed during tournaments.

UESTC: University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Institute of Fundamental and Frontier Sciences, Jianshe Road, Chengdu, CHINA.
Catenated networks exclusively composed of intertwining rings were first envisioned as "Olympic gels" by Pierre-Gilles de Gennes four decades ago but have not been successfully prepared in artificial materials yet due to the challenge in synthesis. Herein, we present a bio-inspired, evaporation-assisted strategy to address this issue. In our design, the evaporation of liquid catalysts that induce ring-chain equilibrium of polymer systems drives macrocycles to encounter and assists their catenation through reversible cyclization.

College of Education, Psychology and Social Work, Flinders University, Adelaide, Australia.
Purpose: Meaningful connections, encompassing relationships providing emotional support, understanding, acceptance, and a sense of belonging, are vital for social inclusion and well-being of Individuals with serious mental illness (SMI). The mixed methods review critically explored multifaceted approaches supporting people with SMI to foster meaningful (non-intimate) social relationships or connections.
Methods: Searches of eight electronic databases returned 4882 records.
