Jump height ingenerated by countermovement and arm swing better correlates with proagility shuttle run tests but not with change of direction deficits in collegiate female athletes
CONCLUSIONS: Stronger correlations of RSImod, CMJ, and CMJarm with 10-/20-m COD than with linear sprinting, RSI, and SJ suggest that training focused on improving countermovement and arm swings with jumping may enhance COD performance in female athletes.PMID:38602034 | DOI:10.23736/S0022-4707.24.15691-5 (Source: Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness)

Physiological and metabolic responses of Parabadminton athletes to field simulated effort
CONCLUSIONS: PBd athletes belonging to higher FCs (4, 5, and 6) and who cover greater distances on the court exhibit physiological and metabolic responses under greater influence of the type of disability.PMID:38602035 | DOI:10.23736/S0022-4707.24.15745-3 (Source: Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness)

Soccer and volleyball players do not land differently: implications for anterior cruciate ligament injury risk
CONCLUSIONS: Soccer and volleyball players' landing strategies were thus similar in each task, in opposition to initial hypotheses. We might speculate that the higher anterior cruciate ligament injury rate in soccer may be more related to non-predictable factors than the isolated landing kinematics.PMID:38602036 | DOI:10.23736/S0022-4707.24.15769-6 (Source: Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness)

Stress fracture of the first rib in a hockey goalie
We describe an ice hockey goalie with acute-on-chronic thoracic back pain who was found to have a first rib stress fracture, which to our knowledge is the first reported in this sport. We hypothesize that biomechanical stress from new stick positioning contributed to the injury. Our patient recovered symptomatically with conservative treatment; however, imaging suggested nonunion of the fracture site and possible pseudoarthrosis.PMID:38602037 | DOI:10.23736/S0022-4707.24.15810-0 (Source: Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness)
