International Journal of Climatology, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 3107-3120, April 2021., 2021 Clothing resistance (rcl) and potential evapotranspiration (PET) are estimated and linked to characterise the annual thermal climate of the Carpathian region for the period 1971–2000. rcl strongly depends on human body somatotype variations, consequently so does the statistical relationship between rcl and PET.

Partial‐body cryotherapy (−135°C) and cold‐water immersion (10°C) after muscle damage in females
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 485-495, March 2020., 2020 This randomized controlled trial examined the effects of cold‐water immersion (CWI), partial‐body cryotherapy (PBC), or a passive control (CON) on physiological and recovery variables following exercise‐induced muscle damage (EIMD, 5 × 20 drop jumps) in females. Twenty‐eight females were allocated to PBC (30 seconds at −60°C, 2 minutes at −135°C), CWI (

The left hand second to fourth digit ratio (2D:4D) does not discriminate world-class female gymnasts from age matched sedentary girls. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 INTRODUCTION: The second to fourth-digit-ratio (2D:4D), a putative marker of prenatal androgen action and a sexually dimorphic trait, has been suggested to be related with sports performance, although results are not univocal. If this relation exists, it
