Anticipatory Cortisol Regulation During Competition in Elite Female Field Hockey Players

Stress and Health, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Research examining the cortisol awakening response (CAR) in elite female athletes during official competition remains limited, particularly under ecologically valid high‐stakes conditions. This study investigated associations between pre‐competitive Delta CAR, competitive outcome, anxiety‐related variables, and cortisol fluctuations on an ...

Biomechanical Analysis of 3D Printed and Thermoformed EVA Custom‐Made Mouthguard: Experimental and Finite Element Analyses

Dental Traumatology, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 511-522, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background/Objective 3D printed materials have been evaluated for fabricating mouthguards; however, little is known about their biomechanical performance in preventing dental trauma. This study aimed to compare two 3D printed polymers and three ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) sheets used for mouthguard fabrication regarding their mechanical ...

Acute Effects of Sleep Extension on Fatigue, Inhibitory Control, Short‐Term Vigilance and Neuromuscular Function in Youth Elite Ice Hockey Players: A Randomised Crossover Trial

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 4, August 2026.
Scheduling a 10‐h sleep opportunity (sleep extension) in elite youth athletes increased total sleep time by approximately 1 h compared to normal sleep. Cognitive performance on an inhibitory control task (20‐min colour multisource interference task; cMSIT) improved after sleep extension, and this was accompanied by an overall lower perception of ...

Persistent Median Artery Thrombosis Presenting as a Mobile Volar Hand Mass: A Rare Case With Surgical Considerations

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Persistent median artery thrombosis can present atypically as a painless, mobile volar hand mass that mimics a benign lesion. Awareness of this vascular variant and use of preoperative imaging are essential for accurate diagnosis, while vein graft reconstruction offers a safe approach to preserve arterial continuity and hand perfusion.

Variation in Meiofaunal Abundance and Composition Across an Estuarine Bay: Do They Comprise a Coherent and Distinct Entity Displaying Contrasting Patterns to the Macrofauna?

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Is division of marine animals into macrofauna and meiofauna merely an arbitrary convenience, or, as has been claimed, does their size difference render them distinct and independent entities evolved under different ecological constraints? Those in the Knysna estuarine bay did not behave as distinct and discrete ecological entities, their individual ...

A Critical Examination of the Usefulness of Taxonomies for Comparing Cognitive Functions Across Sports

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Taxonomies are widely used in sport science to classify disciplines according to structural, cognitive, and physiological demands, yet their robustness in differentiating athletes' cognitive performance remains uncertain. This study examined whether commonly applied sport classification frameworks—open versus closed skills, strategic–static ...

Which Strength Qualities Matter Most for Sprinting? Partitioning Unique and Shared Variance in a Multivariable Model

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Individual strength qualities have been associated with sprint performance, but previous researchers have not partitioned the unique and shared variance each contributes, nor included the full range of strength qualities in a single analysis.
