Self-reported exertional heat illness and risk factors among collegiate marching band artists.

Marching band (MB) artists are often part of the general student population and not required to complete a pre-participation health screening to identify predisposing medical conditions or risks for injury/illness. Anecdotally, exertional heat illnesses (EHI) are a concern for MB artists. As more athletic trainers provide MB healthcare, research is needed on EHI occurrence and MB associated EHI risk factors.

Exercise-associated hyponatremia (EAH) is commonly observed in endurance athletes, where prolonged physical exertion combined with being unaware of personal hydration needs can lead to excessive water consumption or inadequate sodium intake. Marching band (MB) is an emerging setting for sports medicine professionals. However, there is little research on non-musculoskeletal illnesses among these performing artists.

This paper compares three automated path-planning algorithms based on publicly available data. The algorithms include a Dijkstra-based algorithm (DBA) that improves on the straightforward application of Dijkstra's algorithm, which restricts the path only to the grid edges. We present a fair and comprehensive comparison method for evaluating multiple algorithms-DBA, the Fast Marching Method (FMM), and a great circle-based method.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how cranial sutures, specifically the coronal suture, change in shape and size as young rats grow, using a new method called curved-reslicing for more accurate measurements.
- Researchers conducted in vivo micro-computed tomography (μCT) scans of 12 rats at five different ages to analyze the suture's linear interdigitation index (LII) and width over time.
- Results showed a significant increase in LII and a decrease in width from 7 to 21 weeks, and the study established a predictive model that can explain a large portion of the variations in suture morphology based on age and other factors.

Background: Accurate delineation of knee bone boundaries is crucial for computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) and effective treatment planning in knee diseases. Current methods often struggle with precise segmentation due to the knee joint's complexity, which includes intricate bone structures and overlapping soft tissues. These challenges are further complicated by variations in patient anatomy and image quality, highlighting the need for improved techniques.
