: SNP-based kinship analysis with genome-wide relationship estimation and IBD segment analysis methods produces results that often require further downstream process- ing and manipulation. A dedicated software package that consistently and intuitively imple- ments this analysis functionality is needed. : Here we present the skater R package for SNP-based kinship analysis, testing, and evaluation with R. The skater package contains a suite of well-documented tools for importing, parsing, and analyzing pedigree data, performing relationship degree inference, benchmarking relationship degree classification, and summarizing IBD segment data. : The skater package is implemented as an R package and is released under the MIT license at https://github.com/signaturescience/skater. Documentation is available at https://signaturescience.github.io/skater.

Article Synopsis
  • This study aimed to assess the immune response of short-track speed skaters before and after training by using proteomics and metabolomics to analyze changes in urinary proteins and metabolites.
  • A total of 21 elite skaters from the China National Team were monitored for training load, and urine samples were analyzed using advanced techniques like chromatography and mass spectrometry to identify significant protein and metabolite changes.
  • Results showed that immune-related proteins, including various complement proteins and immunoglobulins, were upregulated post-training, while proteins like osteopontin and CD44 were downregulated, indicating shifts in the immune system's response to training.

We investigated the effects of a treatment package on the performance of correct relay tags with 4 inline speed skaters. The treatment package included verbal praise following correct tags, visual feedback of performance data, and instruction for improving performance. Initial gains in the frequency of correct tags were not maintained at 6-month follow-up when baselines were reestablished.

Impact forces upon landing single, double, and triple revolution jumps in figure skaters.

Clin Biomech (Bristol)

April 1997

Faculty of Physical Education and Recreation, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada.

INTRODUCTION:: Competitive success in the sport of figure skating has been largely attributed to the skater's ability to execute multi-revolution jumps, landing backwards, on a single leg, in a prescribed configuration. The extent to which additional revolutions contributes to greater vertical force upon landing was assessed to determine if advanced technical feats places these young athletes at risk of potential impact related injuries. METHODS:: Twenty four competitive figure skaters ranging in technical classification (Juvenile, Novice, and Senior) and age (10 to 26 yrs.
