Article Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of sodium bicarbonate (SB) supplementation on physical performance, neuromuscular and metabolic responses during CrossFit® exercise. Seventeen Advanced CrossFit®-trained athletes completed the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover protocol consisting of four visits, including two familiarization sessions and two experimental trials separated by a 7-day washout period. Participants supplemented 0.3 g/kg body mass (BM) of SB or placebo 120-min prior to performing the CrossFit® benchmark Fran followed by 500 m of rowing. SB improved time to complete Fran compared to PLA (291.2 ± 71.1 vs. 303.3 ± 77.8 s, = 0.047), but not 500 m rowing (112.1 s ± 7.9 vs. 113.2 s ± 8.9 s, = 0.26). No substantial side-effects were reported during the trials. This study showed that SB improved CrossFit® benchmark Fran performance, but not subsequent 500-m rowing. These data suggest that SB might be an interesting supplementation strategy for CrossFit® athletes.

Engaging residents with the support available at community-based residential mental health rehabilitation facilities is an ongoing challenge for health services. This study explored factors associated with residential rehabilitation engagement across Queensland, Australia through regression modelling of cross-sectional data from a statewide benchmarking activity completed in 2023 (n = 208). The Residential Rehabilitation Engagement Scale (RRES) assessed each resident's rehabilitation engagement.

This review article, developed by the EASD Global Council, addresses the growing global challenges in diabetes research and care, highlighting the rising prevalence of diabetes, the increasing complexity of its management and the need for a coordinated international response. With regard to research, disparities in funding and infrastructure between high-income countries and low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are discussed. The under-representation of LMIC populations in clinical trials, challenges in conducting large-scale research projects, and the ethical and legal complexities of artificial intelligence integration are also considered as specific issues.

Background: The timely transfer of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) to percutaneous coronary intervention-capable centers is critical for improving outcomes. Although the American Heart Association recommends a door-in-door-out (DIDO) time of ≤30 minutes, national compliance remains low.
Project Rationale: At Harris Health, no patients with STEMI met this benchmark before 2022.

Human-associated metagenomic data often contain human nucleic acid information, which can affect the accuracy of microbial classification or raise ethical concerns. These reads are typically removed through alignment to the human genome using various metagenomic mapping tools or human reference genomes, followed by filtration before metagenomic analysis. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis to identify the optimal combination of alignment software and human reference genomes using benchmarking data.
