A Comparative Study of Doppler‐Guided Acute Bone Shortening‐Lengthening Versus Bone Transport for Infected Tibial Defects Combined With Soft Tissue Defects

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Under a validated Doppler‐guided safety protocol (≤ 3 cm), acute shortening‐lengthening and bone transport show comparable safety and functional outcomes for infected tibial defects, but shortening‐lengthening significantly reduces wound healing time—a design‐inherent benefit without functional superiority. ABSTRACT Objective The management of infected

Passive thigh heating improves peak force production in younger adults and early isokinetic force production in younger and older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Older adults often suffer from reduced physical capability relative to young adults, in part due to impaired muscle function. This study investigated the ergogenic effects of passive thigh heating on knee extensor torque production in healthy older versus younger adults.

Long‐term endurance running training and testosterone daily variation in ageing men; a comparative cross‐sectional study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between long‐term endurance running training and daily variation in testosterone, which is known to diminish during ageing, in a comparative, cross‐sectional study. We recruited 45 male participants into four groups [young athletes (YA), young sedentary (YS), master athletes (MA) and elderly

Lower limbs strength variations between injured and non-injured professional soccer players

Science Progress
Due to its physical demands, professional soccer is becoming a real challenge regarding players’ exposure to high injury risk. Given its tight correlation with high-intensity actions, muscular strength is a crucial physical characteristic for soccer ...

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on muscle strength, power, function and physical activity in healthy older adults: A randomised crossover trial

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing leads to an increased prevalence of sarcopenia and frailty, characterised by progressive declines in muscle strength, power and function and reduced physical activity. Hot water immersion (HWI) could potentially improve muscle function, but this is yet to be explored in older adults.

Somatosensory processing in long COVID fatigue and its relations with physiological and psychological factors

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We aimed to quantify somatosensory processing in long COVID and interactions between somatosensory processing, fatigability, fatigue, autonomic function, mood and illness beliefs. Eighty‐eight participants (44 long COVID and 44 controls) were invited to complete two testing sessions, where fatigue was induced by either a cognitive or a ...

Effects of cold water immersion versus active recovery on oxidative stress, redox gene expression and mitochondrial adaptations after strength training

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We compared the acute and chronic effects of postexercise cold water immersion (CWI) and active recovery (ACT) on oxidative stress, redox‐related gene expression, mitochondrial adaptations and muscle oxidative capacity. In a crossover study, nine males completed strength sessions, followed by either 10 min CWI or ACT.
