Sex Differences Exist in the Relationship Between Vertical Jump Performance Biomechanical Parameters and Hamstring/Quadriceps Ratio in Adolescent U18 Track and Field Athletes

open access: yesSports
Isokinetic metrics are suggested to be related to vertical jump performance, but little is known about the possible sex differences in this relationship in adolescent track and field athletes.

Pharmacological chromatin remodeling enhances response to estrogen therapy in ER+ breast cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Estrogen therapy elicits clinical benefit in ~ 30% of patients with endocrine‐resistant estrogen receptor (ER)‐positive breast cancer. Based on findings that ER transcriptional activation underlies response to estrogen therapy, we tested the effects of epigenetic dysregulation via pharmacological inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDACi).

Patellar Tendon Force Differs Depending on Jump-Landing Tasks and Estimation Methods

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Patellar tendinopathy is a chronic overuse injury of the patellar tendon which is prevalent in jump-landing activities. Sports activities can require jumping not only with a vertical component but also in a forward direction.

Spatial biology in cancer epigenetics

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Spatial epigenomics combines molecular profiling with tissue architecture to reveal how gene regulation is organized within intact tissues. In cancer, these technologies uncover the mechanisms driving tumor heterogeneity and microenvironmental interactions, opening new opportunities for biomarker discovery and precision medicine.

Knowledge of results during vertical jump testing: an effective method to increase the performance but not the consistency of vertical jumps [PDF]

open access: yesSports Biomechanics, 2020
This study aimed to determine whether the provision of jump height feedback (knowledge of result; KR) can increase the performance and the consistency of output variables. In a randomised order, sixteen participants performed six squat or countermovement jumps (three from a 90º knee angle and three from a self-preferred knee angle) with or without KR ...

Paclitaxel induces NM2‐dependent cellular contraction through GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and RhoA/ROCK activation in cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Taxanes are widely used chemotherapeutics whose effects on cellular mechanics remain poorly understood. We show that paclitaxel induces rapid cellular contraction by promoting GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and non‐muscle myosin II activation through RhoA/ROCK.

Effect of Using Hand-Weights on Performance in the Standing Long Jump [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Previous standing long jump studies have shown that jumping with hand weights can significantly increase jumping performance. The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanisms that enable performance improvement in the standing long jump when ...

Effects of 30 second versus 45 second static stretching on vertical jump performance

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND: Static stretching (SS) is widely used by many athletes, as a warm-up before exercise training and athletic events. The duration of effective SS and the threshold volume of continuous SS on vertical jump performance remain unclear.

mattsams89/shiny-vertical-jump: v2.1.0

open access: yes, 2021
This update fixes a major logical error in how sampling rates other than 1000 Hz are handled. As in, sampling rates other than 1000 Hz should now process correctly. There is an issue where peak takeoff force is not always identified correctly at sampling
