Anticipation in sports is commonly investigated using perception-action uncoupled methods, thus raising questions regarding transferability of findings to the field. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of different degrees of perception-action coupling on anticipation in handball goalkeeping. Advanced, intermediate and novice handball goalkeepers watched videos of throws on the goal and were asked to anticipate throw direction via key press (perception-action artificial condition) and via natural movement response (perception-action simulated condition). Results reveal overall superior performance in the artificial compared to the simulated condition. Skill-based differences, however, were descriptively more pronounced in the simulated condition compared to the artificial condition. The findings further highlight the importance of more representative research methods to unravel perceptual-cognitive skill in sports.

Mechanochemistry and mechanocatalysis are gaining increasing attention as environmentally friendly chemical processes because of their solvent-free nature and scalability. Significant effort has been devoted for studying continuum-scale phenomena in mechanochemistry, such as temperature and pressure gradients, but the atomic-scale mechanisms remain relatively unexplored. In this work, we focus on the mechanochemical reduction of MoO as a case study.

Background: Monkeypox (Mpox) is a re-emerging zoonotic disease with limited therapeutic options, necessitating the exploration of novel antiviral agents. (turmeric) is a widely used medicinal plant known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, primarily attributed to its bioactive curcuminoids.
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic potential of aqueous extract (CAE) against monkeypox through phytochemical characterization, biological assays, and computational analyses.

During the implantation process of cardiovascular implants, vascular damage caused by inflammation occurs, and the inflammatory process is accompanied by oxidative stress. Currently, carbon monoxide (CO) has been demonstrated to exhibit various biological effects including vasodilatation, antithrombotic, anti-inflammatory, apoptosis-inducing and antiproliferative properties. In this study, hemoglobin/epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) core-shell nanoparticle-containing coating on stainless steel was prepared for CO loading and inflammation modulation.

Introduction: The beneficial effects of probiotics are encountered by their low viability in gastrointestinal conditions and their insufficient stability during manufacturing, throughut the gastrointestinal transit, and storage. Therefore, novel systems are highly required to improve probiotics delivery.
Methods: In this study, Lactobacillus gasseri (L), Bifidobacterium bifidum (B), and a combination of L+B were encapsulated in chitosan (CS)-polyacrylic acid (PAA) complex systems (CS-PAA).
