The purpose of the study was to analyze the relationships among physiological and neuromuscular indices with the 200- and 400-m sprint running performance. Fourteen male sprinters performed the following tests: determination of 200- (P200) and 400-m (P400) running performance; determination of VO2max and the velocity associated at VO2max; squat jump (SJ) and countermovement jump (CMJ); and maximal accumulated oxygen deficit (MAOD). Significant correlations were observed between SJ (r = -0.53), CMJ (r = -0.69), and MAOD (r = -0.65) with P200. Countermovement jump (CMJ) and MAOD explained 70% of the P200. The MAOD was the only variable to correlate significantly with P400 (r = -0.56); VO2max and CMJ were also selected in the regression together and explained 79% of P400. The indicators of muscular power and anaerobic capacity are capable of explaining P200. In the 400 m, the performance was determined by indices of anaerobic capacity, in conjunction with the athletes' aerobic and muscular power.

Background: The information and decision support needs required to embed a patient-centred strategy are challenging, as several haemodialysis vascular access strategies are possible with significant differences in short- and long-term outcomes of potential treatment options. We aimed to explore and describe stakeholder perspectives on information needs when making decisions about vascular access (VA) for haemodialysis.
Methods: We performed thematic analysis of seven (six online, one in person) focus group discussions including transcripts, post-it phrases and text responses with 14 patients and 12 vascular access professionals (four nephrologists, three surgeons and five nurses - Vascular access nurse specialists/Education and dialysis nurses) who participated in at total of six online and one in person focus group.
Employing free-running laser/envelope detection-based millimeter wave (mmWave) signal generation/detection at remote radio heads (RRHs)/user equipment (UE) offers a cost-effective solution for seamlessly integrating existing intensity modulation-direct detection (IM-DD)-dominated optical access networks and wireless networks. Such fiber-wireless convergence enables a continuous flow of signals with varying characteristics between the baseband unit (BBU) and UE across fiber and wireless network segments without the need for optical-electrical-optical (O-E-O) conversions and digital signal processing (DSP) at intermediate nodes. In this paper, we extensively investigate the performance of such a fiber-wireless converged access network employing free-running laser/envelope detection-based mmWave generation/detection in an IM-DD-based 1.

Background: Off-road running is a growing sport with little research investigating injury profiles of female participants. Bone stress injuries (BSIs) are a particularly detrimental injury with little known about their incidence and risk factors in female off-road runners.
Objective: Collate and review the available evidence reporting epidemiological data and risk factors associated with BSI in female off-road runners.

: The aim of this work was to assess the effect of a conservative therapeutic intervention on the changes in the foot load distribution in people with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome practising long-distance running. : The study involved 44 men, aged 30 to 50 years, practising long-distance running. Two rounds of tests were conducted in the Laboratory of Biokinetics of the AWF in Kraków.
