Johnston, RJ, Watsford, ML, Kelly, SJ, Pine, MJ, and Spurrs, RW. Validity interunit reliability of 10 Hz 15 GPS units for assessing athlete movement demands. J Strength Cond Res 28(6): 1649–1655, 2014—The purpose this study was to assess the validity (Catapult) (GPSports) Global Positioning System (GPS) investigate differences between these as measures team sport A simulation circuit completed by 8 trained male participants. The demands examined included: total distance covered (TD), average...
Background and purposeFAST-Forward is a phase 3 clinical trial testing 1-week course of whole breast radiotherapy against the UK standard 3-week regimen after primary surgery for early cancer. Two acute skin toxicity substudies were undertaken to test safety schedules with respect reactions.Material methodsPatients randomly allocated 40 Gy/15 fractions (F)/3-weeks, 27 Gy/5F/1-week or 26 Gy/5F/1-week. Acute reactions graded using RTOG (first substudy) CTCAE criteria v4.03 (second weekly...
The current use of tracking technology in the form global positioning systems allows for a greater analysis locomotor activities occurring games and larger volume when compared with time-motion analysis. Therefore, aim this study is to be first analyze physiological demands forwards backs throughout entirety an Australian professional rugby league season. movement patterns 185 players from club were recorded during 28 National Rugby League played Australia 2010 clustered into 2 positional...
To investigate the validity and reliability of accelerometry SPI-ProX II dual data logger (GPSports, Canberra, Australia).Controlled laboratory assessments determined accuracy reproducibility raw accelerometer data. Intra- interdevice assessed ability accelerometers to repeatedly measure peak gravitational accelerations (g) during impact-based testing. Static dynamic testing against a criterion-referenced accelerometer. Dynamic was over range frequencies from 5 15 Hz.Intradevice found no...
The purpose of this study was to quantify the movement demands all 9 individual playing positions in professional rugby league. 135 league players were recorded during 28 National Rugby League games 2011, using a nondifferential 5 Hz global positioning system. mean total distances covered game for fullback, wing, center, five-eight, halfback, hooker, lock, back row, and prop 7,760, 7,457, 7,301, 8,402, 8,500, 6,988, 5,481, 6,936, 4,597 m, respectively. average occurrence high-intensity runs...
The current study aimed to describe the distribution of physical and technical performance during different phases play in professional Australian Football. (offence, defence, contested play, umpire stoppages, set shots goal resets) were manually coded from video footage for a single team competing 18 matches Football League. Measures including total distance (m), average speed (m · min−1), low-speed running (LSR, <14.4 km h−1), high-speed (HSR, >14.4 accelerations (2.78 m s−2) decelerations...
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex immune-mediated inflammatory disorder in which patients suffer from inflammatory-erosive arthritis. Recent advances on histopathology heterogeneity of RA synovial tissue revealed three distinct phenotypes based cellular composition (pauci-immune, diffuse and lymphoid), suggesting that etiologies warrant specific targeted therapy motivates need for cost effective phenotyping tools preclinical clinical settings. To this end, we developed an automated...
Type C bone, as described by Dorr, exhibits both cellular and structural compromise, which presents a challenge for fixation of total hip arthroplasty (THA). We evaluated the performance Omnifit® HA stem, hydroxyapatite-coated titanium alloy retrospectively reviewing clinical radiographic data 15 patients with femoral bone who received stem during primary THA between 1991 1994. The were followed minimum 9 years (mean, 11.5 years; range, 9-14 years). average age at surgery was 54 body mass...
There is good evidence to suggest that dose intensity important when considering the effectiveness of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer. However, development chemotherapy-induced febrile neutropenia can lead reduction and other treatment modifications, which may negatively affect patient outcomes. Febrile be prevented by use primary prophylactic treatment, notably granulocyte colony-stimulating factors. This practice supported international guidelines, all recommend...
In the pursuit of long-lasting, high-energy density solid-state batteries, dual solid electrolyte designs offer a unique path toward stabilizing electrode-electrolyte in- terfaces in presence high-voltage positive electrode and low-voltage negative electrode. However, pairings that form stable interface under battery operating conditions must be identified. this study, we used onset reaction tem- perature as proxy to assess chemical compatibility between chloride (Li2ZrCl6...
Summary Paracetamol is a commonly used drug in the intensive care unit. There have been reports literature of an association with significant hypotension, potentially important interaction for labile critically ill patients. Route administration may influence incidence hypotension. This single‐centre, prospective, open‐label, randomised, parallel‐arm, active‐control trial was designed to determine hypotension following paracetamol Fifty adult patients receiving analgesia or pyrexia were...
Currently minimal research has quantified physical requirement differences in match-play between youth and senior Australian football players. The aim of the current was to describe compare movement profiles energy cost youth, sub-elite elite match-play.Fifty-seven footballers playing an 20, 16 competition 21 participated this study. Distance, speed based indices metabolic power measures recording via Global Positioning System (GPS) devices were compared across three tiers. Kicks handballs...
High rates of drug-resistant tuberculosis in Ukraine suggest screening is necessary to mitigate public health hazards for host populations. A pathway was implemented Wales and data prospectively collected Between 8 April 21 December 2022. Of 5425 Ukrainian arrivals, notifications were received by TB teams on 2395 (44%) whom 1955 (82%) screened. The refugees young (median age 30, IQR 14–41), predominantly female (66.1%). Interferon- gamma release assay (IGRA) tests positive 112 (6.5%). One...
