Abstract
Wong, R, Laudner, K, Evans, D, Miller, L, Blank, T, and Meister, K. Relationships between clinically measured upper-extremity physical characteristics and ball spin rate in professional baseball pitchers. J Strength Cond Res 35(5): 1331–1337, 2021—During baseball pitching, physical characteristics of the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, and fingers have been hypothesized to be critical to creating ball spin. The purpose of this study was to determine if pitchers with greater shoulder, elbow, wrist, and finger range of motion (ROM), arm and hand length, wrist strength, or grip and finger strength would produce greater ball spin than those with less physical characteristics. Ninety, asymptomatic, professional baseball pitchers participated (age = 24.5 ± 3.9 years; height = 189.9 ± 6.1 cm; body mass = 92.6 ± 10.6 kg). Goniometers and a digital level were used to measure shoulder, elbow, wrist, and finger ROM, a tape measure was used to assess arm and hand lengths, and handheld dynamometers were used to measure wrist, grip, and finger strength. Ball spin was measured using a 3-dimensional Doppler radar and video system. Standard multiple regression analyses showed no significant relationships existed between ball spin and any of the upper-extremity ROM or limb length variables (R

2
= 0.01–0.03; p = 0.40–0.94). However, there was a significant relationship for the summation of wrist strength (R

2
= 0.24, p = 0.03). Both time to wrist extension strength {B = 0.50 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.23–0.76), p = 0.001} and radial deviation strength (B = 0.41 [95% CI: 0.15–0.66], p = 0.002) were significant predictors within this model. These results demonstrate that the rate of ball spin during a pitch may be partially altered by increasing wrist extension acceleration and radial deviation strength. However, the subsequent clinical measurements of shoulder, elbow, wrist, and finger ROM, arm and hand length, and grip and finger strength were not associated with ball spin.

Marta, C, Alves, AR, Casanova, N, Neiva, HP, Marinho, D, Izquierdo, M, Nunes, C, and Marques, MC. Suspension vs. plyometric training in children's explosive strength. J Strength Cond Res 36(2): 433–440, 2022—The aim of this study was to compare the effects of different training programs, that is, 8 weeks of suspension training (ST) or plyometric training (PT), on measures of strength and power in untrained healthy children. One hundred eighteen children (57 boys and 61 girls) aged 10–11 years (mean ± SD: 10.84 ± 0.46 years) were randomly assigned into PT (19 boys and 22 girls), ST (20 boys and 18 girls), and control (CT) (18 boys and 21 girls; no training program) group. Experimental groups were trained twice a week for 8 weeks. Countermovement jump, standing long jump, medicine ball throw, and 20-m sprint were measured at baseline and after intervention. The results showed a significant group effect on training-induced responses (F = 10.26; p < 0.01;

= 0.33), with clear improvements from pre- to posttraining in PT and ST. Regardless of training group, no differences were found in boys and girls (F = 0.70; p = 0.62;

= 0.03). After 8 weeks of training, PT and ST showed increased performances in 1-kg (mean ± CI 95%; 0.18 ± 0.05 and 0.19 ± 0.05 m) and 3-kg (0.12 ± 0.08 and 0.12 ± 0.09 m) medicine ball throws and 20-m sprints (−0.08 ± 0.03 s and −0.04 ± 0.04 s) compared with CT (p < 0.05; d > 0.60). Standing long jump was significantly increased after ST when compared with CT (0.07 ± 0.04 m; p < 0.01; d = 0.88). Plyometric training showed higher improvements than ST in sprint (0.04 ± 0.03; p = 0.01; d = 0.71). It is suggested that 8 weeks of ST or PT seems to be effective to improve strength- and power-related variables in healthy untrained children. These could be considered as alternatives to traditional resistance training and be applied in school-based programs.

Abstract
Merrigan, JJ, Tufano, JJ, and Jones, MT. Potentiating effects of accentuated eccentric loading are dependent upon relative strength. J Strength Cond Res 35(5): 1208–1216, 2021—The purpose was to evaluate the acute effects of accentuated eccentric loading (AEL) on bench press velocity and subsequent perceived effort (ratings of perceived exertion [RPE]) and soreness. Resistance-trained men (n = 8) and women (n = 2) completed 4 sets of 5 bench press repetitions with AEL and traditional loading (TL) using concentric loads of 50% (AEL50, TL50) and 65% (AEL65, TL65) 1-repetition maximum (1RM). Throughout each TL set, the eccentric load remained identical to the concentric. Variable resistance during the first repetition of AEL equaled 120% 1RM. Hierarchical Linear Modeling was used to evaluate differences between AEL and TL (p < 0.05). For the first repetition, AEL50 and AEL65 resulted in slower eccentric and concentric velocities. The increasing slope of eccentric and concentric velocity across repetitions was greater during AEL50 and AEL65 compared with TL50 and TL65, respectively (p < 0.05). As an individual's strength increased, AEL50 resulted in slower eccentric velocity and faster concentric velocity than TL50. The AEL65 resulted in faster concentric velocity than TL65 (p < 0.05). Mean protocol comparisons revealed trivial to small effects between AEL and TL. There were no differences in RPE or soreness between protocols with soreness ratings remaining unchanged from baseline (1.80 ± 0.20 AU; p < 0.05). Overall, AEL was not effective for increasing concentric velocity during the bench press with current loading protocols. Yet, stronger individuals may exhibit increases in concentric velocity from AEL, which may be a result of different pacing strategies employed during the eccentric phase. Furthermore, when using the current AEL protocols, eccentric intensities were increased with no greater RPE or soreness.

O presente artigo tem como cenário o extremo sul do Império escravista brasileiro; a cidade de Pelotas (1850-1870) e tem a intenção de refletir sobre a presença das crianças negras nessas escravarias. A história social da escravidão, principalmente após 1980, tem se dedicado a diversas gamas de pesquisa sobre essa população. Todavia, são poucos trabalhos que centralizam as crianças como protagonistas nessas narrativas. O trabalho possui esse intuito, e para isso trabalha com algumas fontes documentais, principalmente inventários post-mortem e processos criminais, tentando entender a importância demográfica dessas crianças, sua circularidade pela cidade, assim como o cotidiano dessa infância negra.Palavras-chave: Escravidão; infância-escrava; Pelotas. AbstractThis article presents as a setting the southernmost party of the Brazilian slavery empire: the city of Pelotas (1850-1870). It intends to reflect upon the presence of black children in this slavery. The social history of slavery, especially after 1980, has dedicated several research topics on this population. However, there are only a few pieces of research that focus on children as protagonists in these narratives. This paper has this purpose, and, to achieve that, we use documental sources, mainly post-mortem inventories and criminal processes, trying to understand the demographic importance of these children, their circularity around the city, as well as the daily life of this black childhood.Keywords: Slavery; slave-childhood; Pelotas.
Educación Corporizada para la Convivencia

Published: March 2021

En este artículo propongo defender una educación para la convivencia desde edades muy tempranas que (1) parta de una comprensión correcta de la naturaleza corporal, activa y afectiva del ser humano; (2) entienda lo indispensable que es implementar pedagogías alternativas y novedosas que promuevan una educación basada en la utilización del cuerpo entero en las actividades de enseñanza/aprendizaje; y (3) confíe e integre en sus prácticas los resultados de investigaciones empíricas hechas a partir de bases teóricas robustas. El énfasis estará puesto en la necesidad de implementar metodologías y pedagogías novedosas y creativas, basadas en algunos postulados de la fenomenología, así como en algunas hipótesis de los enfoques contemporáneos de cognición corporizada y situada.

Medidas Implícitas en Cognición: Una Aproximación al Estudio de la Automaticidad
Authors: Parra José Alirio , Tamayo Ricardo Mauricio 
Published: March 2021

La investigación en cognición implícita ha aumentado de manera vertiginosa durante las últimas décadas, principalmente por el uso generalizado de procedimientos experimentales conocidos como medidas implícitas. A diferencia de los cuestionarios de autoinforme, estas metodologías impiden que sesgos como la deseabilidad social afecten las respuestas de los participantes, lo que permite abordar temas sensibles. Sin embargo, las medidas implícitas difieren en aspectos como las instrucciones, los materiales o los indicadores conductuales analizados. Debido a esto, hay controversia sobre la naturaleza de los procesos que están siendo medidos, las características que se les atribuyen y, por ende, la posibilidad de hacer comparaciones entre los estudios que emplean diferentes medidas implícitas. Basándose en un modelo de procesamiento dual, este trabajo propone que las medidas implícitas pueden entenderse como indicadores de procesos automáticos. A partir de dicha propuesta, se discuten los requisitos que las medidas implícitas deben cumplir y algunos desafíos para la investigación en automaticidad.

Dispensing errors in Lebanese community pharmacies: incidence, types, underlying causes, and associated factors
Authors: Soubra Lama , Karout Samar 
Published: March 2021

Objectives: To assess the incidence, types, the causes of as well as the factors associated with dispensing errors in community pharmacies in Lebanon.
Methods: An observational cross-sectional study was conducted in 286 pharmacies located all over Lebanon. Data were collected by senior pharmacy students during their experiential learning placement. Collected data included information on the types of dispensing errors, the underlying causes of errors, handling approaches, and used strategies for dispensing error prevention. Data were analyzed using multiple logistic regression to determine factors that were associated with dispensing errors.
Results: In the twelve thousand eight hundred sixty dispensed medications, there were 376 dispensing errors, yielding an error rate of 2.92%. Of these errors, 67.1% (252) corresponded to dispensing near-miss errors. The most common types of dispensing errors were giving incomplete/incorrect use instructions (40.9% (154)), followed by the omission of warning(s) (23.6% (89)). Work overloads/time pressures, illegible handwriting, distractions/interruptions, and similar drug naming/packaging were reported as the underlying causes in 55% (206), 23.13% (87), 15.15 % (57), and 7% (26) of the errors respectively. Besides, high prescription turnover volume, having one pharmacist working at a time, and extended working hours, were found to be independent factors that were significantly associated with dispensing errors occurrence (p<0.05).
Conclusions: This study sheds light on the need to establish national strategies for preventing dispensing errors in community pharmacies to maintain drug therapy safety, considering identified underlying causes and associated factors.

Published: March 2021

WstępChemeryna jest hormonem wydzielanym przez adipocyty. W ostatnim czasie zwraca się uwagę na jej właściwości prozapalne i związane z karcynogenezą. Celem pracy było zbadanie stężeń chemeryny w surowicy i ślinie osób zdrowych oraz chorych z rakiem jelita grubego (RJG) w II i III stopniu zawansowania według klasyfikacji TNM (<i>tumor, node, metastasis</i>), a także ocena związku uzyskanych wartości z otyłością oraz wybranymi parametrami kliniczno-patologicznymi.Materiał i metodyDo badania zakwalifikowano 52 osoby, które podzielono na dwie równe grupy – kontrolną
i badaną z nowotworem w II stopniu zaawansowania z cechą N0 oraz w III stopniu z cechą N+ według klasyfikacji TNM. Wewnątrz grup wyróżniono podgrupy osób o prawidłowej masie ciała (18,5 ≤ BMI < 25) oraz osoby otyłe i z nadwagą (BMI ≥ 25). Stężenia chemeryny w surowicy i ślinie oznaczano metodami immunoenzymatycznymi.WynikiMediany stężeń chemeryny były istotnie wyższe w grupie badanej w porównaniu z grupą kontrolną, zarówno w surowicy (384,36 ng/ml wobec 170,53 ng/ml), jak i ślinie (15,45 ng/ml wobec 4,57 ng/ml; p < 0,0001). W żadnej grupie w podgrupach z BMI powyżej i poniżej 25 nie znaleziono istotnych różnic w stężeniach badanej adipokininy. Nie odnotowano również istotnych różnic stężeń chemeryny w surowicy i ślinie między nowotworami w II i III stopniu zaawansowania TNM (p = 0,82 i p = 0,52).WnioskiOcena stężeń chemeryny w surowicy i ślinie u pacjentów z RJG sugeruje, że badana adipokina może być cennym biomarkerem wczesnej diagnostyki tego nowotworu. Wpływ BMI na uzyskane wyniki stężeń w surowicy i ślinie wydaje się nieistotny u chorych z RJG. Wydaje się, że w pewnych przypadkach łatwo akceptowane przez chorych badanie śliny może zastąpić badanie surowicy.

As dermo-hipodermites bacterianas agudas não necrotizantes são processos infeciosos que incluem a erisipela e a celulite infeciosa, e são geralmente causadas por estreptococos β–hemolíticos do grupo A. Em mais de 80% dos casos situam-se nos membros inferiores e são fatores predisponentes a existência de solução de continuidade na pele, o linfedema crónico e a obesidade. O seu diagnóstico é essencialmente clínico e o quadro típico baseia-se na presença de placa inflamatória associada a febre, linfangite, adenopatia e leucocitose. Os exames bacteriológicos têm baixa sensibilidade ou positividade tardia. Nos casos atípicos é importante o diagnóstico diferencial com a fasceíte necrotizante e a trombose venosa profunda. A flucloxacilina ou a cefradina são os fármacos de primeira linha. A recidiva constitui a complicação mais frequente, sendo fundamental o correto tratamento dos fatores de risco.
