Summary: This study examined the effects of mild heat exposure on performance during repeated sprints. The results showed that performance was enhanced with mild heat exposure when the sprints were matched for initial mechanical output. This improvement occurred despite higher thermal and perceptual strain, without any changes in quadriceps neural drive.

Summary: The consumption of beetroot juice rich in nitrates has been shown to improve sports performance, particularly in fatigue resistance during repeated sprints. Different dosages have been proposed for chronic and acute intake, with chronic intake leading to better results over a period of days, while acute intake closer to physical exertion may also yield effective outcomes. This systematic review reveals potential benefits in enhancing fatigue resistance during repeated sprints by consuming nitrates derived from beetroot juice.

Summary: This study investigated the modulation of circulating exosome-like extracellular vesicles (ELVs) after 6 weeks of sprint interval training (SIT) at sea level and different altitudes. The results showed that there were minor differences in the levels of circulating particles, ELV markers, or miRNA between the hypoxic groups. However, the levels of circulating particles increased after training when the hypoxic groups were pooled, and tended to increase at sea level. The miRNA cargo of ELVs seemed to be modulated in hypoxic conditions only.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of Bio-Electro-Magnetic-Energy-Regulation (BEMER) on recovery and performance parameters in anaerobic exercise. The results show that active recovery leads to a more comfortable exercise experience while still allowing comparable exercise performance.

Summary: The study investigates the influence of forearm position on neuromuscular fatigue during arm cycling repeated sprint exercise. Participants showed decreased sprint performance with increased sprint numbers, accompanied by higher perceived exertion and pain. Pronated forearm position resulted in greater power output and less neuromuscular fatigue compared to supinated position.

Summary: A network meta-analysis was conducted to compare and rank the effects of different training interventions on the sprint and change of direction abilities of soccer players. The results showed that a combined training program incorporating plyometrics, sprint, agility, and resistance training was most effective in improving the sprint and change of direction abilities of soccer players.

Summary: MiR-182 is elevated in patients with fracture of tibial plateau, inhibiting proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts, affecting fracture healing. Knockdown of miR-182 might be a novel therapeutic approach for fracture healing.

Summary: The aim of this study is to compare the effects of previous hamstring strain injury on sprint performance, hamstrings shear modulus pattern, and neuromuscular parameters between players with and without injury. The results suggest that there are no differences between previously injured and healthy control players, except for the early rate of torque development in the biceps femoris long head muscle. These findings indicate that the differences between injured and control groups may recover over time.

Summary: This study compared the acute effects of RSH training inside a tent and using a mask on environmental, perceptual, and internal and external workload parameters. Results showed that using a mask led to lower CO2 and WGBT levels, while training inside a tent resulted in lower arterial oxygen saturation levels compared to a mask-based system.
