Abstract The increasing availability of positional data in invasion sports like football drives the development of advanced performance metrics. Two widely adopted examples are space control, which quantifies spatial inf...

Background and Study Aim. Ergogenic aids are widely used to enhance exercise performance and training adaptations. Among these, caffeine is recognized for its stimulatory effects on the central nervous system and neuromu...

Background and Study Aim. Finger flexor strength and endurance are components of lead climbing performance. Climbers develop these qualities within specific training environments shaped by facility characteristics and co...

Caffeine is one of the most widely used ergogenic aids in sport, known for its performance-enhancing effects on endurance, strength, and cognitive function. Beyond these well-established roles, emerging evidence suggests...

Depression is a prevalent mental health disorder affecting both the general population and athletes, despite the latter often being perceived as psychologically resilient. Athletes are exposed to unique stressors such as...

IntroductionPlyometric training (PT) is widely used in team sports, but its outcome-specific effects in female team sport athletes and the influence of key programming variables remain unclear.MethodsThis systematic revi...

IntroductionInjury assessment and forensic decision support are pivotal challenges in sports medicine, requiring advanced methods to interpret complex biomechanical and medical imaging evidence under uncertainty. This st...

Abstract With the development of sports rehabilitation, accurate assessment of the patient’s rehabilitation process has become the key to enhance the rehabilitation effect. To solve the problems of inaccurate recogniti...

Abstract Background In basketball, quadriceps strains and contusions are common due to the muscle’s role in knee extension and hip flexion, with the rectus femoris most prone to injury because it crosses both joints, m...

ABSTRACT To examine the acute effect of gliclazide on exercise performance and recovery of muscle strength in healthy participants. We conducted a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled crossover clinical trial...

Abstract Background This study investigated whether the dominant hand would exhibit faster nerve conduction velocity, lower muscle activation latency, and superior Coincidence Anticipation Timing (CAT) performance compar...

This study aimed to investigate resilience as a psychological variable to predict motivation and anxiety concerning the performance of amateur beach tennis athletes. A total of 129 athletes of both sexes participated. To...

Background and Study Aim. Youth tennis performance depends on the development of multiple physical domains, including speed, agility, power, accuracy, and endurance. Although numerous training interventions have been pro...

Abstract Background Small-sided games (SSGs) represent one of the most popular football-specific training methods; however, their capacity to replicate the external load demands imposed during official competitive matche...

# Background Sports performance depends on multiple components, including strength, power, and balance. Both dynamic balance and hip muscle strength influence horizontal hop performance, but it remains unclear whether b...

Abstract Background Basketball is one of the most popular sports. In basketball, the energy demand from several combinations of aerobic and anaerobic sports in which athletes need physical fitness, explosive power, agili...

Background. Long QT Syndrome (LQTS) is a hereditary cardiac channelopathy that predisposes individuals to malignant arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. In athletes, physiological cardiac adaptations can mask or mimic L...
