Effects of intermittent exposure to hypobaria and cold on the microarchitecture and morphofunctional profile of rat gastrocnemius muscle

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) enhances oxygen transport, muscle metabolism, and cardiovascular health; however, the combined effects of hypobaria and cold are less well understood. Exposure to these stressful environmental factors, even intermittently, can affect skeletal muscle due to its plasticity, thereby altering its metabolic and ...

Formed on Ice: A Qualitative Study of Motivation, Pressure, and Identity in Early Ice Hockey Specialization

Sports
While much of the current research on early specialization focuses on physical outcomes, training models, and policy implications, little is known about how athletes themselves make sense of their developmental experiences. This study aims to examine how

Twin pregnancies and the limits of the energetics of gestation and growth hypothesis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The “Energetics of Gestation and Growth” (EGG) hypothesis proposes that human birth timing and the associated secondary altriciality of human newborns is determined by limits in maternal metabolic capacity. According to this model, labor is triggered when the increasing fetal energy requirements exceed the expectant mother's maximum sustained ...

The 9+ month marathon: How pregnancy may have shaped human endurance capacities

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Anthropology has long considered the evolution of our uniquely human endurance capacities to be the result of selection upon anatomical and physiological features imposed by the demands of thermoregulation and resource acquisition, particularly during the demands of persistence hunting. Research has focused on the anatomical changes present in

Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.

From NIL to real estate: strategic revenue adaptation in the post-house era of college athletics

Frontiers in Sports and Active Living
Recent legal and financial reforms have altered the business model of college sports. The erosion of the NCAA's amateurism defense (culminating in the House settlement) has formalized athlete compensation and introduced direct labor expenses into ...

Hip Arthroscopy in Adults Aged 40 or Older Produces Clinically Meaningful Symptom Improvement but Carries a Substantial Risk of Conversion to Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To report conversion rates to total hip arthroplasty (THA), patient‐reported outcome measures, and complication rates in adults aged ≥ 40 years undergoing hip arthroscopy since 2016. Methods MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PubMed were searched from January 2016 to March 2025, and pertinent data were abstracted from eligible studies according to the ...

Structural Allograft Reconstruction for Chronic Proximal Hamstring Avulsion Yields Significant Functional Improvement, Acceptable Satisfaction, but Limited Return to Preinjury Sport Levels

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate midterm outcomes of structural allograft reconstruction in patients with chronic proximal hamstring avulsion injuries. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study (minimum 2‐year follow‐up) including patients who underwent allograft surgical reconstruction for proximal hamstring avulsion injuries between 2016 and 2023. The primary

The Forgotten Joint Score Shows High Correlation With Established Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Patient‐Reported Outcome Measures While Capturing Joint Awareness and Functional Recovery: A Systematic Review

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To systematically review and analyze the existing literature on the use of the Forgotten Joint Score‐12 (FJS‐12) in patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), with the aim of evaluating its effectiveness as a complementary tool to traditional patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) in assessing postoperative ...
