Fluid ingestion does not influence intense 1-h exercise performance in a mild environment

Article Abstract:

Little benefit seems to come from drinking water during intense, one-hour cycling exercise in mild environmental conditions. Water ingestion was found in a study to have no significant effect on heart rate, plasma volume, body temperature, plasma electrolytes or performance. Eight well-trained men cycled for 45 min without fluid replacement or with 50% fluid replacement, and followed that with a 15-min high-speed ride.

Pars interarticularis stress lesions in the lumbar spine of cricket fast bowlers

Article Abstract:

A magnetic resonance (MR) imaging study was carried out to analyze the development of symptomatic pars lesions in the lumbar spine of adolescent cricket fast bowlers. It was found that in a remarkable number of the adolescent bowlers examined in the study, fast bowling was directly related with the development of symptomatic pars lesions of the lumbar spine, especially unilateral L4 stress lesions.

Skinfold thickness varies directly with spring coefficient and inversely with jaw pressure

Article Abstract:

Results show that reduction in skinfold thickness is caused by increasing jaw closing pressure irrespective of skinfold location. Data further show that in acurate measurement of skinfolds, ranges of caliper jaw pressure and spring coefficient parameters are important.
