AbstractThe aim of the study was to compare motor action variables of judo combat phases and technical biomechanical assessment of the seven weight categories. The sample was composed of 638 bouts (176 of extra lightweight <66 kg, 289 of half lightweight 66 > 73 kg, 180 of lightweight 73 > 81 kg, 244 of half middleweight 81 > 90 kg, 174 of middleweight 81 > 90 kg, 151 of half heavyweight 90 > 100 kg and 142 of heavyweight >100 kg) during motor actions of approach, gripping, attack, defense and groundwork combat phases, verifying the interactions between them by Markov chains and comparisons by Kruskall-Wallis and Dunn post hoc tests (p ≤ .05). The results demonstrated that lighter weight categories showed higher approach phases than the heavyweight category, and the lightweight group demonstrated higher defensive action frequencies than the half lightweight category and heavyweight athletes. Heavyweight and middleweight categories demonstrated higher groundwork combat frequencies than lighter weights, and the heavyweight category showed higher pause frequencies than the lightweight category. Regarding the decision-making model, the main transitions presented by the Markov chains showed higher prevalence of the following combinations: gripping occurring before the lever and length attacks, lever attack followed by the length attack, and length attack occurring earlier than the groundwork phase.

Abstract This study aimed to perform motor action and biomechanical analysis of techniques in female judo athletes separated by weight categories of 638 female bouts (103 extra lightweight <48 kg, 140 half lightweight 48>52 kg, 65 lightweight 52>57 kg, 73 half middleweight 57>63 kg, 77 middleweight 63>70 kg, 80 half heavyweight 70>78 kg and 60 heavyweight >78 kg). All bouts were analyzed following the phases of approach, gripping, defensive action, attack, also biomechanical analysis of techniques and groundwork was performed (p ≤ .05). Results indicated that lightweight athletes presented lower attempts to grip, right collar grip and left collar grip frequencies than other categories. Extra lightweight judokas presented lower right back grip and left back and sleeve grip frequencies as well as lower occurrence of techniques with arm and leg lever scored than half lightweight athletes, while half lightweight athletes demonstrated higher frequency of techniques with waist lever variable scored than lightweight ones. These findings should be considered for training prescription.

Texte intégralRésumé :
AbstractObjectives: To identify whether a simple marker of nonpsychiatric health service contact (weight of general hospital case notes) is helpfulin identifying patients with evidence of psychiatric disorder in a medical and surgical population.Method: Hospital case note review identifying evidence of past and current psychiatric disorder in patients with heavy, medium and low weight case notes. Responses to letters to general practitioners and review of local psychiatric hospital records were used to validate findings. Setting: A large general teaching hospital in the centre of Leeds, UK. Subjects: Random sample of 240 patients aged 16-65 attending general hospital medical or surgical teams as an inpatient or day patient between April 1, 1991 and March 31, 1992. Patients whose index admission was to the gynaecology or obstetrics unit were excluded. Main outcomes: Non-psychiatric service contact was measured by case note weight and thickness, lifetime admissions and number of consultants seen. Psychiatric disorder was identified using global judgements based on a standardised assessment of the case notes, and also general practitioner statements of current or past psychiatric disorder and record of contact with psychiatric services.Results: In a detailed examination of 75 cases, 92% of patients with lightweight notes had solely physical factors to account for their presentations, compared to 88% in the middleweight group and 64% in the heavyweight group. Heavier case notes more often contained comments about psychiatric problems affecting the physical presentation (lightweight 8%; middleweight 20%; heavyweight 64%). Patients with heavy case notes more often had a history of contact with psychiatric services as confirmed by the GP or contact at local psychiatric hospitals (lightweight 28% middleweight 24% heavyweight 48%). Amongst the heaviest service users, patients with a psychiatric problem had seen a median of 12.0 lifetime consultants compared to 8.5 in those where a purely physical cause was present.Conclusions: Patients who have heavy hospital case notes are more likely to have evidence of psychiatric disorder than those with lower levels of hospital contact and this is more likely to have an impact on their physical presentation and clinical course as judged by case note review using structured assessment criteria.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract Background: Therapy for children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is intensive and treatment-related mortality (TRM) occurs in about 5 to 10% of patients. Previous data illustrated that obese children and adolescents with AML treated according to CCG 2961 were more likely to experience TRM, with HR 2.66 (95% CI 1.38-5.11; P = 0.003), when compared to middleweight patients. Since this trial, the backbone of AML chemotherapy and supportive care have changed and thus, it is unknown whether the impact of obesity persists in contemporary trials. The objective was to determine whether obesity was associated with increased TRM, reduced survival and prolonged compared to middleweight patients with AML. Methods: AAML0531 enrolled patients between August 14, 2006 and June 15, 2010. For this analysis, we included patients 0 to 18 years of age with de novo AML. Chemotherapy consisted of 5 cycles of chemotherapy and patients were randomized to receive or not receive gemtuzumab once during Induction I and Intensification II. Best allogeneic donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) was recommended for those with > 15% bone marrow blasts after Induction I in those without favorable risk cytogenetics and poor risk cytogenetics irrespective of response following Induction I. Matched family donor HSCT was recommended for those with good response after Induction I with standard risk cytogenetics and an available donor. Obesity was defined using definitions from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Underweight was defined as a body mass index percentile less than 5th percentile, and obese 95th percentile and greater. Categories were determined using z-scores for the weight-for-height data for those 0 to 2 years of age. All outcomes were censored at the time of HSCT. The primary outcome was TRM, defined as death as first event occurring on therapy or within 30 days of going off therapy. Cumulative incidence of TRM was estimated treating relapse and failure as competing events. Kaplan Meier analysis was conducted for overall survival (OS), event free survival (EFS), and disease free survival (DFS). Cumulative incidence of relapse rate (RR) was estimating treating deaths as competing events. Results: There were 1004 patients included. When comparing middleweight and obese patients, there was no significant difference in gender (P=0.814), white vs non-white race (P=0.116), cytogenetic risk group (all P>0.05) or MRD positivity after Induction 1 (P=0.750). The median age was higher for obese patients (12.0 vs 9.4 years; P=0.007 years) compared with middle weight patients. The proportion of patients who were Hispanic or Latino patients was higher among obese compared with middle weight patients (28% vs 17%; P=.001). Survival outcomes are shown in Table 1. When evaluating median time to neutrophil recovery, obese patients, when compared to middleweight patients, had shorter duration of neutropenia for cycles 1-3 (P<0.05). Conclusions: TRM rates continue to be higher for obese patients treated with contemporary AML protocols. Toxicity is not mediated through prolonged neutropenia. Future work should compare the rate of toxicity among obese versus non-obese patients and evaluate the impact of underweight status. Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Background: Brain injury arising from head trauma is a major concern in mixed martial arts (MMA) because knockout (KO) and technical knockout (TKO) are frequent fight outcomes. Previous studies have shown a high incidence of matches ending due to strikes to the head but did not consider weight categories and female fights. This study aimed at analyzing match stoppages in MMA and the exposure to head trauma distinguished by sex and weight categories. Hypothesis: The heavier the weight class, the greater the risk and incidence of head trauma will be, regardless of sex. Study Design: Descriptive epidemiology study. Level of Evidence: Level 3. Methods: Publicly available data of 167 MMA events from 1903 fights between 2014 and 2017 were assessed, comprising 8 male and 2 female weight categories. Results: The combined KO/TKO rates per 100 athlete-exposures in the middleweight (19.53), light heavyweight (20.8), and heavyweight (26.09) divisions were greater than previously reported for MMA. While stoppage via KO/TKO occurred in 7.9% of combats in the female strawweight division, it occurred in 52.1% of the male heavyweight fights. The male middleweight ( P = 0.001), light heavyweight ( P < 0.001), and heavyweight divisions ( P < 0.001) had an increased risk of KO/TKO due to strikes to the head by 80%, 100%, and 206%, respectively. The risk in the flyweight division decreased 62% ( P = 0.001). All categories were compared with the lightweight division. The female bantamweight category presented a 221% increased risk in matches ending due to KO/TKO compared with the strawweight division ( P = 0.012). Punches to the head were the major technique used to end a combat via KO/TKO, regardless of sex and weight class. Conclusion: Head injury risk and incidence varies considerably according to sex and weight category in MMA. Clinical Relevance: The analysis of head trauma exposure in MMA athletes should be distinguished according to sex and weight category.

Texte intégralRésumé :
AbstractThis article considers the highly contested and contradictory uses of the industrial past that continue to animate questions of place-based identity in the wake of large-scale deindustrialization. Drawing on media accounts as well as qualitative interviews with city residents, the representations surrounding Youngstown, Ohio's former middleweight boxing champion, Kelly Pavlik, and his asserted relationships to the city are considered. It is argued that through the various depictions of Pavlik, we see how deindustrialization has led to a more complex interaction of space and time—rather than marking a material and symbolic break from the era in which heavy industry dominated the city and its sense of identity—as aspects of the past are alternately disavowed, recovered, rearticulated, and reconstructed in relation to shifting economic, social, and cultural contexts.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This article discussed the problem that is commonly faced by project managers in selecting an appropriate software development model. A good number of models and the ongoing debate between the advocates of agile and traditional models make the selection of a right one uneasy and complicated. The purpose of this study is to propose a new alternative view in selecting development models from the perspective of degree of flexibility in different project situations. The results of a survey conducted to 74 project managers and software developers indicate that there are three naturally occurring development model groups, including heavyweight (Waterfall and V models), middleweight (Incremental and Spiral models), and lightweight (Extreme Programming and SCRUM). A canonical function is identified to help project managers select an appropriate software development model for each potential or planned project.

Texte intégralRésumé :
AbstractThe concept of global cities and the importance of transnationalisation processes in their formation are widely acknowledged. However, the debate surrounding global city identification continues. The study introduces a new approach to evaluating global cities by primarily looking at them as locales for foreign multinational corporations. By analysing the location decisions made by foreign TNCs in the Forbes 2000 rankings, two things become apparent: the “nodality” of US global cities and their hierarchical pattern. Our findings show the key role that Alpha global cities play in attracting and fostering international business. We identify five uneven groups of cities. These groups are defined in accordance with our methodology and are as follows: the New York city-hegemon, leading cities, heavyweight cities, middleweight cities and outsider cities. The article specifies several key factors determining a city’s attractiveness to foreign corporations: its geo-economical power, functional specialisation, location, historical and cultural ties, and position on different sectoral markets.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of biomechanic factors to teach different hook punches in boxing. Eight light middleweight boxing athletes (mean age±SD 19.00±2.00 yrs, mean height±SD 173.88±3.89 cm, mean weight±SD 64.25±4.66 kg) participated in this study. Athletes performed a trial using three different hook punch techniques on a sandbag. The techniques were recorded using eight cameras using a frequency of 120 Hz. Qualisys Track Manager was used to analysis on motion. Mean acceleration of the sandbag, stride length, angles of the knee, shoulder, and elbow were calculated. The forces of impact were also calculated. Hook punch data were compared with Friedman test using SPSS 20.0. The results indicated a significant difference was found only in stride length. Stride length using a southpaw stance was shorter than the other stances (p<0.05). Athletes need more practice increasing stride length and use a repeating method in Mitt workout, models, sandbag trainings, self- monitoring and regional trainings.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The work is a literature review. Residual kidney function (RKF) is one of the crucial indicators of mortality and quality of life in patients with chronic kidney disease. Residual renal function provides better control of hydration, blood pressure, clearance of substances with low and middleweight, anemia, Ca/P metabolism, chronic inflammation. However, approaches to preservation of RKF in dialysis patients have been studied not enough, the importance of RKF preservation is underlined. The wide range of predictors of RKF loss are presented in the article, approaches to measurement of RKF, the relationship between level and presence of RKF with survival and mortality of patients with CKD 5D were analyzed. The possibility of RKF preservation and extension using different approaches by correction of dialysis prescription were estimated. There is no standardized method for applying incremental hemodialysis in practice. Onceto twice-weekly hemodialysis regimens are often used randomly, without knowing the benefit for current patient or how to escalate the dialysis dose if RKF declines over time. It is important to change the HD/HDF prescription according to the range of RRF using objective data.

The purpose of this study was purposively selected from the “Senior National Championship for the year 2018. Only women weightlifters participated in various weight categories, acted as the subjects. The age of the subjects ranged from 18-34 years. The total subjects were N=54, which were divided into three (3) groups of eighteen (18) subjects for each group. The first groups were low weight categories (48 kg. & 53 kg.), Second groups were middleweight categories (63 kg, 69 kg.) and third groups were upper group weight categories (90 kg, +90 kg.). In order to measure the relative strength of various lifters of different groups, the data was collected from the results of “Senior National Championship” Mangalore, Karnataka 21st to 25 January 2018. Descriptive Statistic (Mean, Standard Deviation), One-way, ANOVA (Analysis of variance) with post hoc test (LSD) was applied to analyze and compare the relative strength among the different body weight categories. The level of significance was set at 0.05. 3 indicate that there were significant differences in the entire three groups. However, group Lower had higher relative strength. After applying the post Hoc Test (LSD) it was found that there was a significant difference in all three groups in their relative strength.

Texte intégralRésumé :
AbstractTrunk muscle strength (TMS), especially rotator, is an important factor for both athletic performance and injury risks in judokas. However, the characteristics of TMS that depend on weight categories are still unclear. Although inadequate TMS might cause low back pain (LBP), the relationship between these two variables is not fully understood. In this study, weight category-dependent TMS and its relationship with LBP was investigated in Japanese judokas. The subjects were 66 male collegiate judokas, who were classified into the lightweight (N=14), middleweight (N=29) or heavyweight (N=23) category. The peak torques of extensor, flexor and rotator muscles were measured. The LBP group and non-LBP group were defined by questionnaire. TMS (normalized by body weight) in the heavier weight category showed a lower tendency in comparison with other categories, except for rotator strength. Significant differences were observed in the extensors (90 and 120 °/s; P<0.05) and flexors (60, 90 and 120 °/s; P<0.05). The LBP group (N=9) only showed significantly lower extensor (60 °/s; P<0.05) and right-rotator (60 °/s; P<0.01) strength in the heavyweight category compared with the non-LBP group (N=14). The relative TMS of judokas decreased in the heavyweight category, except for trunk rotator strength. Notably, low trunk extensor and rotator strengths are risk factors for LBP in heavyweight judokas.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Physiological changes brought about by a person’s aging process are known to negatively affect elite sports performance, but this may be delayed by skill mastery brought about by continued training. The intersection of these two separate processes causes a potential ‘peak performance window’ in many sports. Within MMA it has been shown that older competitors are more likely to lose individual bouts, especially due to strikes, and when they win it is most likely to be due to a decision. It has not been determined whether age has a long-term effect on success in MMA. This study divided the top 100 competitors in each MMA weight division into 5 ranking groups (RG) and used Bayesian ANOVA (BF10), 95% credible interval plots and Bayesian Kendall’s Tau (BF10) to determine if competitor rankings are affected by their age, and if each division displays a different age profile. The results found that whilst there is a general pattern of older participants being ranked higher, middleweight was the only division where this was statistically relevant. It was found, however, that the heavier the mass limit of the division, the older the participants are across each RG. These results suggest that skill mastery may be of more short-term importance to successful performance in MMA than physiological ability, particularly in the heavier divisions, but physiological decrements effect lighter competitors earlier in their chronological age. This is potentially due to differing performance requirements between the different divisions.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Aim. To assess the strength of the respiratory muscles in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) with varying severity of endogenous intoxication.
Materials and methods. In the hospital, 78 men aged 1826 years with CAP were examined. СAP was diagnosed in 56 (72%) patients, severe CAP in 22 (28%). The severity of endogenous intoxication was verified using intoxication indices: hematological index of intoxication (HII), leukocyte index of intoxication (LII), nuclear index of intoxication (NII) and Krebs index. Middleweight molecules (MWM) was determined by spectrophotometry in the serum and the concentration of interleukin (IL)-10 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-) by ELISA. The strength of the respiratory muscles was measured on the device Micro RPM (Care Fusion, Great Britain). The maximum expiratory pressure (МЕР), inspiratory pressure (MIP) in the oral cavity, the Maximal Rate of Pressure Development (MRPD) during inhalation (MRPDin) and exhalation (MRPDex), and intranasal test (SNIP) were determined. Statistical processing was performed using descriptive statistics, MannWhitney test, correlation and cluster analysis.
Results. Three clusters of endogenous intoxication corresponding to mild, moderate and severe degree were identified. The first cluster was represented only by patients with mild CAP, the second-mild CAP and severe CAP, and the third severe CAP. Dysfunction of the expiratory respiratory muscles prevailed during the height of the disease in patients with the first cluster, and in the second and third inspiratory, including the diaphragm. The level of actually measured values of MIP and SNIP was 68% and 58% of those due to severe endogenous intoxication. Significant negative correlations were established LII, HII, MWM, TNF-, IL-10 с MEP, MRPDex, MIP и SNIP. Respiratory muscle dysfunction remained only expiratory respiratory muscles in convalescents of the first cluster, and expiratory and inspiratory muscles of the second and third cluster.
Conclusion. The development of respiratory muscle dysfunction in CAP is associated with the influence of endogenous intoxication factors. The results can be used in personalized programs of rehabilitation.

Texte intégralRésumé :
With the goal of optimizing protocols, fixed-time artificial insemination (FTAI) was performed under field conditions in a study to evaluate conception rates in Girolando (5/8) heifers (18 to 24 months of age) treated with estradiol benzoate (BE) to induce ovulation. Forty heifers were allocated to 2 groups with 20 animals each: GI-sexed semen (2 million spermatozoa/dose) and GII-nonsexed semen (20 million spermatozoa/dose), with body condition score (BCS) of 3.0 ± 0.14 (scale of 1 to 5), middleweight of 335 ± 38 kg, so that it was made for reutilization of progesterone device. On Day 0 (morning), the animals received 2.0 mg of BE (RIC-BE®,Tecnopec, São Paulo, Brazil), 0.075 mg of D-cloprostenol (Prolise®, ARSA S.R.L., Buenos Aires, Argentina), and an intravaginal device of 1 g of progesterone (Primer®, Tecnopec). On Day 8 (morning) the device was removed and 0.075 mg of D-cloprostenol was managed in the GI animals, then these animals received 1.0 mg of BE 24 h after device removal. The insemination was in the late afternoon of Day 10 with a 6-hour delay (4 to 6 pm). The GII animals received Primer previously used for 8 days (being used in the GI animals under the same protocol). After pregnancy diagnosis at 60 days, a third group was created (GIII) using the not-pregnant animals of GI and GII. In GIII, Primer from third use [disinfected in solution Kilol®-L 1:250 (Quinabra, São Paulo, Brazil) and rinsed with water, dried, and packed in plastic sacks and kept for 60 days] was used following the GI protocol with sexed semen. There were no significant differences (P > 0.05) in the conception rates of 40, 58, and 65% among groups GI (8/20), GII (11/20), and GIII (13/20). These results indicate very good conception rates for heifers, contrary to recommendations of commercial companies of sexed semen that alert for the conception rate for mated animals to be lower when using FTAI and mating protocols in mass, compared with that of AI after estrus observation.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Background. The purpose of this study was to carry out technical analysis of the 12th World Universities Wrestling Championships Greco-Roman style competition. Methods. There were 70 participants from 18 countries participating in Corum, Turkey. The observation form was prepared before the competitions and recorded by two researchers; technical analysis of the recordings was carried out. During the competitions, the scores obtained, warnings, winning types, successful techniques were recorded in the technical analysis form. In statistical analysis, the percentage distributions for each parameter and match percentage rates were calculated. Statistical analysis was performed by One Way ANOVA and LSD analysis of variance in group comparisons. Results. In the championships all the wrestlers applied 341 technics and collected 535 points. The Light weight groups applied 157 technics and collected 245 points in the 36 matches. The most number of points were collected and made in the light weight group. The heavyweight groups applied 63 technics and collected 116 points in the 19 matches. The least number of points were collected and made in the heavyweight groups. There was a significant difference between the technical and score points according to weight groups ( p < .05 and p < .001). The highest number of victories was taken (won by score) in the heavyweight group (83%); the highest number of victories was taken (won by technical pin) in the lightweight group (21%). The highest score was made with passive punishment point in lightweight group (28%), middleweight group (38%) and heavyweight group (33%). The highest scores in the second row were obtained from the techniques of snap down spin behind with (16%) at light weight, high dive takedown at 16.5% in middle weight, and move out of the mat and high dive takedown score at 22% in heavyweight groups. The ratio for one competition (ROC) was received by the number of technical 4.01 and 6.67 points. Conclusion. As a result, the most effective technique in Greco-Roman style given by the referee was passive punishment point in all weight groups. In this case, the wrestlers need to be more active in the standing position around the zone area. In particular, it is suggested to fight tempo wrestling with their arms and chest by fighting against each other and struggle in the standing position.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Purpose:To determine the performance aspects (time–motion and technical-tactical analysis) of top-level low-kick kickboxers according to gender, weight category, combat round, and match outcome.Methods:Seventy-two kickboxers (44 male, 28 female) were studied. Thirty-six bouts (male = 61, female = 41 rounds) were analyzed using a time–motion system. Time structure was classified into 3 phases: preparatory-activity time (PT), fighting time (FT), and stoppage time (ST).Results:Referee decisions caused an overall effort:pause ratio (E:P) of ~1:1.5, with a significant difference between weight categories (light and middleweights = 1:1.5, heavyweight = 1:1). This ratio was ~1:6 when high-intensity actions–to-pause activities were considered. Significant differences were also observed between rounds (all P < .001), with 1st-, 2nd-, and 3rd-round E:Ps of 1:1, 1:1.5, and ~1:2, respectively. The relative times of FT and PT, total attacking actions, upper-limb actions, number of technical actions performed on the head, and the number of high-intensity actions were higher in males than females (all P = .05). Males performed more jab-cross actions and fewer low kicks than females (P < .001). Males used upper-limb (63.4%) more than lower-limb techniques (36.6%), targeting the head (56.9%) more than the body/leg (43.1%), with no significant difference from females (P > .05). E:P was similar between winners and losers. However, the numbers of technical actions performed on the head, counterattack actions, jab-cross technique, and total punches were higher in winners than losers (all P < .05).Conclusions:Training programs need to be adapted to the specific requirements of kickboxers’ weight categories and gender to develop the technical-tactical abilities that improve athletes’ chances of winning.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Weight cycling is thought to increase the risk of obesity and cardiometabolic disease in nonathletic and athletic populations. However, the magnitude and frequency of weight cycling is not well characterized in elite athletes. To this end, we quantified the weight cycling practices of a male World Champion professional boxer competing at super middleweight (76.2 kg). Over a 5-year period comprising 11 contests, we assessed changes in body mass (n = 8 contests) and body composition (n = 6 contests) during the training camp preceding each contest. Time taken to make weight was 11 ± 4 weeks (range: 4–16). Absolute and relative weight loss for each contest was 12.4 ± 2.1 kg (range: 9.8–17.0) and 13.9% ± 2.0% (range: 11.3–18.2), respectively. Notably, the athlete commenced each training camp with progressive increases in fat mass (i.e., 12.5 and 16.1 kg for Contests 1 and 11) and reductions in fat-free mass (i.e., 69.8 and 67.5 kg for Contests 1 and 11, respectively). Data suggest that weight cycling may lead to “fat overshooting” and further weight gain in later life. Larger scale studies are now required to characterize the weight cycling practices of elite athletes and robustly assess future cardiometabolic disease risk. From an ethical perspective, practitioners should be aware of the potential health consequences associated with weight cycling.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Background: Previous research highlighted positive musculoskeletal adaptations resulting from mechanical forces and loadings distinctive to impacts and movements with sports participation. However, little is known about these adaptations in combat athletes. The aim of this study was to quantify bone mineral density, lean muscle mass and punching and kicking power in amateur male combat athletes. Methods: Thirteen male combat athletes (lightweight and middleweight) volunteered all physiological tests including dual energy X-ray absorptiometry for bone mineral density (BMD) segmental body composition (lean muscle mass, LMM), muscle strength and striking power, sedentary controls (n = 15) were used for selected DXA outcome variables. Results: There were significant differences (p < 0.05) between combat groups for lumbar spine (+5.0%), dominant arm (+4.4%) BMD, and dominant and non-dominant leg LMM (+21.8% and +22.6%). Controls had significantly (p < 0.05) high adiposity (+36.8% relative), visceral adipose tissue (VAT) mass (+69.7%), VAT area (+69.5%), lower total body BMD (−8.4%) and lumbar spine BMD (−13.8%) than controls. No differences in lower limb BMD were seen in combat groups. Arm lean mass differences (dominant versus non-dominant) were significantly different between combat groups (p < 0.05, 4.2% versus 7.3%). There were no differences in punch/kick power (absolute or relative) between combat groups. 5RM strength (bench and squat) correlated significantly with upper limb striking power (r = 0.57), dominant and non-dominant leg BMD (r = 0.67, r = 0.70, respectively) and total body BMD (r = 0.59). Conclusion: BMD and LMM appear to be particularly important to discriminate between dominant and non-dominant upper limbs and less so for lower limb dominance in recreational combat athletes.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract During percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), a guidewire is used as an initial way of accessing a specific vasculature. There are varieties of guidewires on the market and choosing an appropriate one for each case is critical for a safe and successful intervention. The main objective of this study is to predict the behavior of the guidewire and its performance in a vasculature prior to the procedure. Therefore, we evaluate the effectiveness of different mechanical properties of the guidewire on its behavior. A two-dimensional (2D) model has been developed in which a guidewire is considered as a set of small rigid segments connected to each other by revolute joints. These joints have two degrees-of-freedom to allow rotation. Linear torsional springs and dampers are applied in each joint to account for the elastic properties of the guidewire; the elastic properties have been measured for two commercially available guidewires (Hi-Torque Balance Middleweight Universal II—Abbot and Amplatz Super Stiff—Boston Scientific) and these are used in the model. Only translational motion has been applied to the guidewires and the effect of bending stiffness of the guidewire and also friction between guidewire and vasculature on its behavior are investigated. The results are validated with actual movement of the guidewires in a simple phantom model. Behavior of a guidewire in a vasculature was predicted using the developed model. The results of both simulation and experiment show that the behavior of a guidewire is influenced by its mechanical properties and by the friction between the guidewire and vasculature. This study is the first step to develop a complete model, which can predict the behavior of a guidewire inside the vasculature. We compared the tip trajectory for two commercial guidewires in one vasculature geometry. In future, this kind of knowledge might support not only the interventionist in choosing the best suitable guidewire for a procedure but also the designer to optimize new instrument to have the desired behavior.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Objective. To identify the differences in the structure of competitive activity of elite athletes competing in different versions of boxing tournaments. Methods. An analysis of the official protocols of boxing matches was carried out to identify the leaders in the middleweight category among amateurs, semi-professionals, and professionals based on the results of the performance of the athletes. When analyzing video records of matches, the notation system was used for recording the bouts with the scores characterizing competitive performance and activity of an athlete as well as diversity of his actions. Results. The differences were identified in the structure of competitive activity of semi-professional (WSB) and professional boxing compared to amateur boxing as the initial stage in the development of professional career of high-class boxers. Professional boxers showed a markedly high density of the bout and a level of activity in the bout, which is expressed in greater differences when compared to both amateur boxers (15.96–107.39 %) and semi-professional boxers (8.71–37.85 %). The differences between qualified amateur boxers and semi-professionals were smaller and ranged from 6.67 to 9.58 %. It is noticeable that more successful boxers of a high class, above all, are distinguished by the higher competitive performance due to having more punches that reached the target. Conclusion. The current trends in improving the system of sports training consist in the need to bring it in line with the rules of different versions of boxing matches. The evolution of modern boxing has demonstrated a tendency for the changes in the rules of boxing matches towards an increase in the number of rounds with a duration of 3 minutes from three to five, which is accompanied by a further increase in the intensity of the boxers actions as well as a growth of the effectiveness of their technical and tactical actions in all rounds of the bout. Key words: boxing, competitive activity, professional boxers, amateur boxers.

Objective. To improve the training process of skilled weightlifters of diff erent sports schools within an annual macrocycle taking into account the diff erences between the groups of weight categories at the stage of specialized basic training. Methods. Аnalysis of scientifi c and methodological literature, analysis and synthesis of indicators of training work, questionnaire survey, method of calculating the training load (according to V.G. Oleshko), pedagogical observations and experiments, control testing of the morphofunctional state (anthropometry and electronic caliperometry) and physical preparedness (using the general physical preparation and specialized physical preparation tests), methods of mathematical statistics. Results. The training loads of female weightlifters of diff erent groups of weight categories of the major sports schools of Ukraine in different mesocycles of the annual macrocycle have signifi cant diff erences in the load volumes, fi rst of all, between athletes of the light and heavy weight categories, and also diff er from the standards of the current curriculum for the Children and Youth Sports Schools. The training load indices for diff erent groups of exercises (snatches, clean and jerks, rows, squats, presses and others) tend to change in young weightlifters aged 16-18 years. The training loads of the female athletes were the lowest in the competitive (by 17.4%) and in the control-preparatory mesocycles (by 15.3%) compared to the base mesocycles as this is due to their preparation for competitive starts. Positive changes in the measures of the morphofunctional condition and in the results of control tests of general and specialized physical preparation, as well as the growth of sports performance (in snatch, clean and jerk, and total combined) among the athletes of major sports schools of Ukraine confi rmed the high effi ciency of the training program for middleweight female weightlifters in weightlifting training centers of Kharkiv, Ternopil, and Donetsk regions. The program can serve as a model for the development of a diff erentiated training program for young female weightlifters in Ukraine. Conclusion. The studies allowed us to recommend the training programs as a basis for designing a diff erentiated training program of annual macrocycle for female athletes of diff erent weight categories and the corresponding age, at the stage of specialized basic training.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Background: Multilobular tumor of bone (MTB) is a primary bone neoplasm, uncommon in dogs. This tumor was called of many names for a long time, as: chondroma rodens, multilobular osteochondrosarcoma, multilobular osteoma, multilobular chondroma, calcificating aponeurotic fibroma, although MTB was preferred chosen, because these other name could be correlated with humans’ tumors. This tumor is observed specially in skull bone, although it was reported in zygomatic arc, hard palate, axilla, spine and penis. Mostly happen in big breeds dogs, and middle to old age patients. Clinical signs depending of region and how aggressive the tumor is, usually are related to compression of any structure. The growth of MTB is frequently slow and progressive, locally invasive, occurring relapse after surgical revomal, although the tumor has low to moderate metastatic potential. The aim of this study is to report a case of MTB in a female dog and describe anatomopathological changes.Case: A female dog, mixed breed, 13 year-old, of middleweight was admitted in Pathology Department of College of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine (FCAV-Unesp), Campus of Jaboticabal - SP, to be undergone to necropsy. The patient have never shown any epileptic crisis or neurologic signs. In macroscopic examination was found a mass in skull, which invaded the orbit and frontal sinus, but it was not invading brain cavity. The neoplasm had and irregular surface, firm consistent, color was white mixed to red areas, after cut it was granular and rough, and had some point mineralized areas. The lobs of lung had much firm masses, colored gray to white. In cytology it was observed fusiform to polyhedric isolated mesenchymal cells, moderated pleomorphic, basophilic cytoplasm, thin granulated nuclear chromatin, and visible nucleoli that was involved by eosinophilic extracellular matrix. The proposed diagnostic was bone sarcoma. Histopathological assessment showed mesenchymal neoplastic proliferation, and multilobular characteristic, the lobules had different sizes and was well organized, and they were separated by thin conjunctive septs. In the center of lobules, there was an “island” with mineralized or chondroitin bone matrix, in some of these islands there were osteoclast. The cells had moderated pleomorphism and low mitotic activity (three mitotic cells in ten high-power field). At least, it showed big necrosis areas and invasion of near tissue. In lung was observed metastatic areas, which had same histopathologic way of primary neoplasm in skull. That way, the histopathologic exam was similar to Multilobular tumor of bone grade II.Discussion: The MTB is an uncommon neoplasm, which assaults mostly skull bone in large breeds dogs and middle age of eight years old. This case accord to literature about breed size, age and local of tumor. The clinical signs in this dog was related to region what it was growing and near structure compression. Besides that, the patient had lung metastasis, that is the principal metastatic sites according to literature. The Histopathologic exam showed the same characters of MTB, which was considered grade II according to literature. Despite MTB is an uncommon neoplasm in clinic of dogs and cats, the epidemiological knowns as age, breed and localization, anatomopathological changes, and histopathological exam allows to have a diagnosis, showing the importance of including this neoplasm in differential diagnosis of bone tumor in dogs.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract Background and Aims Expended hemodialysis (HDx) with medium cut-off (MCO) membrane enables efficient depuration of middleweight uremic toxins, which play significant roles in inflammation and cardiovascular morbidity. Hemodiafiltration (HDF) is known for good removal of middle molecules but it requires more technical resources and well-functioning dialysis access. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of depuration of uremic toxins with a high-flux dialyzer during HDF session and with a MCO membrane (Theranova®) in HDx session and its impact on quality of life (QoL) in hemodialysis patients. Method In an open, single-centre, prospective observational clinical study, 28 adult stable HD patients without residual renal function were assigned to be treated by on-line HDF (HDF group) with the APS-21H dialyzer (polysulfone membrane, 2.1 m2, Asahi Kasei Medical Co., Japan) or by HDx (HDx group) with the Theranova® 400 (1.7 m2) and Theranova® 500 (2.0 m2) dialyzers (Baxter International Inc, USA). The study was conducted during 2019-2020 and completed after 12 months period. All patients were receiving maintenance high-flux membrane HDF treatment at least six months before they were enrolled in the study. Groups of patients were matched in age, sex, BMI, dialysis length and underlying disease. Complete blood count (CBC), renal function and inflammation, electrolytes, liver function tests, iron and nutritional status were evaluated at the beginning of the study and after 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. Pre and postdialysis levels for urea, creatinine, albumin, calcium, phosphorus, C-Reactive Protein, kappa and lambda free light chains (FLC), vitamin B12, β2 microglobulin levels were determined in each patient quarterly and reduction rate (RR) for uremic toxins were calculated. Furthermore single-pool Kt/V, dose of erythropoietin therapy (EPO) and vascular access were evaluated during the study, while bioimpedance analysis using Body composition monitor (Fresenius Medical Care, Germany) and QoL using SF-36 questionnaire (Kidney Disease Quality of Life Short Form-KDQOLTM-36) were evaluated at the end of observation period. The values have been reported as mean ±SD. Results There were 28 patients (14 in each group) mean age of 54.24 years (57.71±9.65 in HDx group vs 59.81±7.99 in HDF group). Median dialysis vintage was 4.77 years (5.33 in HDx group vs 6.46 in HDF group, p=0.55). Vascular access was native arteriovenous fistula in 23 patients, arteriovenous graft in 2 patients and tunnelled dialysis catheter in 3 patients (p=0.98). Kt/V was similar in both groups (1.57±0.31 vs 1.45±0.24, p=0.9), as well as weekly dose of EPO (4533.3±1922.3 vs 4233.3±1971.8, p=0.67). Patients in HDF group had a significantly higher interdialysis fluid overload (2,48±1,37 in HDx group vs 3,64±1,33 in HDF group, p=0.04), without difference in relation to the systolic and diastolic blood pressure values, as well as others BCM parameters. There were not significant differences in examined parameters of CBC, renal function and inflammation, electrolytes, liver function tests, iron and nutritional status at the beginning and at the end of the study. RR of small and middle molecules are presented in Table 1. Serum albumin level has decreased from 37.8 g/dL to 36.4 g/dL in 12 months during HDx treatment with maximal change of serum albumin level of -3.7% during that period (Figure 1). Evaluation of Kidney Disease Quality of Life Short Form at the end of study period in both groups is shown in Figure 2. Conclusion Compared to HDF, HDx with MCO membranes show greater RR for large middle molecules such as lambda FLC (45kD), while RRs for middle molecules- kappa FLC (23kD), β2 microglobulin (12kD) and small uremic toxins are similar. During one year of treatment with MCO membranes serum albumin levels remain stable. HDx treatment may improve quality of life, making an impact primarily in energy status and emotional satisfaction.
