Female Adolescent Soccer Players Utilize Different Neuromuscular Strategies Between Limbs During the Propulsion Phase of a Lateral Vertical Jump by Matthew D DeLang, Joseph P Hannon, Shiho Goto, James M Bothwell, J Craig Garrison

“…Energy generation contribution was significantly greater in the dominant hip (dominant 29.7±8.6%, non-dominant 18.4±6.3%, p\<0.001) and non-dominant knee (dominant 22.8±6.8%, non-dominant 36.2±8.5%, p\<0.001). # Conclusion High demand on coordination and motor control during the lateral vertical jump and inherent limb dominance may explain different intra-limb strategies for task performance despite jump height symmetry. …”

The Effect of Electrical Stimulation Strength Training on Lower Limb Muscle Activation Characteristics During the Jump Smash Performance in Badminton Based on the EMS and EMG Senso... by Xinyu Lin, Yimin Hu, Yi Sheng

“…No significant differences were found in the eccentric-concentric squat jump (<i>F</i> = 0.59, <i>p</i> = 0.561). The findings suggest that EMS, when combined with strength training, is an effective method for enhancing lower limb explosiveness and muscle activation in badminton players, offering a promising training approach for improving performance in high-intensity, explosive movements.…”

Ophiocordyceps salganeicola, a parasite of social cockroaches in Japan and insights into the evolution of other closely-related Blattodea-associated lineages by João P. M. Araújo, Mitsuru G. Moriguchi, Shigeru Uchiyama, Noriko Kinjo, Yu Matsuura

“…In this study, we propose a new species of Ophiocordyceps infecting the social cockroaches Salganea esakii and S. taiwanensis, based on 16 years of collections and field observations in Japan, especially in the Ryukyu Archipelago. We found a high degree of genetic similarity between specimens from different islands, infecting these two Salganea species and that this relationship is ancient, likely not originating from a recent host jump. …”
