Is It Time We Changed How We Measure Length of Stay for Hip and Knee Arthroplasty? حسب McCulloch, Robert

"…Use of hours as the unit of measure of LOS enabled analysis of the time of day of discharge. With decreasing LOS and day-case arthroplasty, a measurement in median hours should become the standard to allow for the detection of subtle changes.…"

Hot and Hypoxic environments inhibit simulated soccer performance and exacerbate performance decrements when combined حسب Aldous, Jeffrey

"…Twelve male University soccer players completed three familiarization sessions and four randomized crossover experimental trials of the intermittent Soccer Performance Test (iSPT)in normoxic- temperate(CON:18◦C50%rH),HOT(30◦C;50%rH),HYP(1000m;18◦C50%rH),and HH(1000m;30◦C;50%rH).Physical performance and its performance decrements, bodytemperatures(rectal,skin,and estimated muscle temperature), heartrate(HR), arterial blood oxygen saturation(SaO2), perceived exertion, thermal sensation(TS), body mass changes, blood lactate, and plasma volume were all measured. …"
