Background: The increasing prevalence of sports injuries among young female volleyball players, driven by biomechanical and hormonal factors, necessitates effective prevention strategies. Screening tools like the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) and Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) often show inconsistent predictive validity for injury risk in this population. This study investigates associations between FMS, SEBT, agility, and muscle strength with injury risk in young female volleyball players to refine prediction models and inform targeted interventions.

Rotator cuff injuries are common and procedures of repair have evolved from open techniques to minimally invasive and arthroscopic ones. Despite these advances, the biomechanics, biology, and value of transosseous repairs remain superior, leading to the development of innovative devices that enable the utilization of this technique without the use of anchors, improving both the efficiency and safety of the procedure. This article reviews the latest advances in transosseous rotator cuff repair, highlighting its biomechanical advantages, as well as the factors that enhance recovery and offer more consistent long-term outcomes.

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is an urgent global health priority given its high prevalence and impact as the leading cause of disability. While several efficacious treatments exist, most have modest effects. Improving outcomes requires a better understanding of treatment mechanisms to enable optimisation.

Running over 'softer' surfaces is thought to lower the magnitude of impact forces. Current research is limited and inconclusive regarding the influence that transitioning between surfaces has on impact forces. Adult runners ( = 18) ran outdoors over a 50 m pathway that was half concrete and half grass at a self-selected speed.

Background: Powerlifting is a strength sport featuring some of the world's strongest athletes. Recent decades have seen an exponential increase in research into the applied sport science and medicine of powerlifting and its Paralympic counterpart, para powerlifting. A scoping review of the area would provide athletes, coaches, policymakers, and researchers with an overview of the existing evidence to support performance, reduce injury, and foster further growth of these sports.
