International Journal of Exercise Science 18(6): 1199-1211, 2025. https://doi.org/10.70252/HOKT7948 Track and field (T&F) throwers are a prominent subgroup of athletes that may be at risk for the development of Metabolic Syndrome (MetSyn) and other cardiometabolic disease conditions. However, limited research exists examining the prevalence of MetSyn in these athletes. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the incidence of MetSyn and associated risk factors in collegiate throwers. Collegiate Division I men (n=17) and women (n=4) T&F throwers participated in a single day of lab assessments, which included anthropometrics, body composition, blood pressure, a venous blood draw, and aerobic …

The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between social identity, industry role, and implicit biases in fitness professionals. Participants (n=296) were randomly assigned two implicit association tests (IATs): disability, weight, gender, skin-tone, or age. IATs measured implicit bias through word and pictorial associations and timed response to word/picture stimuli. Interviews (n=25) were conducted to further examine …

Digital Entrepreneurship Is Redefining Entrepreneurship, Llandis G B Barratt-Pugh Prof, Fang Zhao Prof, Yuli Suseno Prof, Janice Redmond A Prof, Peter Standen A Prof
Journal of Business & Entrepreneurship
This paper provides empirical evidence to conceptualize how digital technologies reconfigure entrepreneurship. Taking an inductive theory-building approach, we first examined the extant literature. Our research study utilised case studies and surveys. More than forty extensive interviews were conducted with experienced digital entrepreneurs (DEs). The analysis followed an iterative grounded theory approach. These Australasian findings indicated that a continuum exists as traditional ventures migrate towards digital operations, forming hybrid models that reflect both the characteristics of traditional entrepreneurism and DE. But, while the motivation of DEs and traditional entrepreneurs were similar, their modes of developing products and ventures differed in terms …

International Journal of Exercise Science
International Journal of Exercise Science 18(2): 1114-1120, 2025. https://doi.org/10.70252/AVGK2063 Strategic planning of research involves predicting the number of replications of the experiment needed to detect an expected effect. The power analysis to determine sample size for the proposed experiment requires known or estimated characteristics of existing distributions. When used well, power analysis reduces the risk of statistical errors, wasted efforts, and temptations to twist ensuing analyses to eke out a ‘significant’ result after data collections conclude. This editorial highlights some examples of how this process goes awry. Sections are dedicated to the role of researchers, the case for ‘pilot’ studies, …

International Journal of Exercise Science
International Journal of Exercise Science 18(5): 1086-1095, 2025. https://doi.org/10.70252/XPTX6116 Acute ankle sprains are common in sports and carry a significantly increased risk of recurrence after an initial injury. Bracing has been shown to reduce injury recurrence; however, athletes may decline this prophylactic measure due to fear of negative effect on athletic performance. Previous research examining the impact of bracing on performance has demonstrated conflicting results. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of bracing on choice reaction time and foot speed in healthy, young adults using computerized agility testing. Twenty-eight healthy athletes aged 18-25 years completed the …

Online Stair Rug Measurement: Remote Geometry-Based Sizing, Design, And Manufacturing Method (Trapezoidal, Triangular, Spiral,Polygonal And Different Shapes Etc.), Durmuş Günsür
Defensive Publications Series
This disclosure presents a fully online measurement, design, and manufacturing workflow for irregularly shaped stair treads — including rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal, polygonal, spiral, wedge, and semicircular forms.
The method converts customer-provided photographs into measurable geometric data using digital calibration (planar homography and scaling), computes step dimensions via geometric derivation and tolerance management, applies parametric edge clearances for safety and aesthetics, adapts rug patterns seamlessly across varied shapes, and finally enables non-slip, pile-free rug production.
The process eliminates on-site measurement and enables completion in approximately 1 day for measurement, 1 day for production, and 3–7 days for global delivery …

Controlling Evpn Load Balancing And Aliasing Per Mac Address, Anonymous
Defensive Publications Series
Ethernet VPN (EVPN) is a standards-based technology that uses the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) control plane to provide scalable Layer 2 and Layer 3 VPN services over IP or Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) networks, supporting multi-homing for redundancy and load balancing through default aliasing across Provider Edge (PE) devices sharing a common Ethernet Segment Identifier (ESI). While effective for resiliency, current EVPN standards lack the ability to disable aliasing for specific Media Access Control (MAC) addresses, limiting deterministic traffic steering in scenarios such as security or analytics functions that require all traffic for a given MAC to traverse a single …

Women In The Construction Skilled Trades: Career Progression, Challenges, And Motivational Factors, Richard Hannah, Andrew Parzyck, Andrea Janzen, Amanda Portinari
Engaged Management ReView
Women remain significantly underrepresented in the construction industry, particularly in the skilled trades. Through qualitative exploratory interviews with six women, this study investigates the career trajectories, worksite barriers, and motivational influences shaping women’s experiences in the construction skilled trades. The research is framed using Donald Super’s Life-Span, Life-Space theory and expectancy-value theory (EVT) to explore how career stages and career value affect women’s experiences. Participants described gender bias, limited mentorship, and restricted advancement opportunities as primary challenges. This study highlights the need for industry-led initiatives to increase early exposure to trades, improve mentorship and sponsorship programs, and create structured pathways …

Examining Ethical Implications Regarding Biologically Assigned Males At Birth Participating In Athletics With Biologically Assigned Females At Birth: Transgender Sport Through The Lens Of Macintyre's Three Rival Versions Of Moral Enquiry, Jana J. Espy M.S., Kirk G. Mensch Phds
Journal of Religion and Business Ethics
This article investigates transgender participation in athletics and the ethical implications of competing in sport emphasizing divergent categories regarding biological sex at birth in comparison to arguments based on gender identity preference. We examine this topic utilizing MacIntyre’s Three Rival Versions of Moral Enquiry, highlighting competing and often incommensurate narratives within collegiate sport. We also elucidate concerns about the possibility of increased risk related to Bandura’s Moral Disengagement and associated harmful effects that could result in athletes and others who might disengage from their own moral self-sanctions to conform to a narrative or opinion incommensurate with their philosophical or …

Cover Panel And Bracket Strategy For Under Ip Electronic Modules, Anonymous
Defensive Publications Series
When having electronic modules its physical location is a significant consideration, for the under IP (Instrument Panel) module, it is installed in the dash and cowl zone, an area that positions it within the "kick zone" of the co-pilot's foot. This exposure creates vulnerability, as the module could be inadvertently impacted or damaged. New Approach This new solution was driven by several key objectives: primarily, to ensure the robust protection of the module from potential damage due to its exposed location. Additionally, the design aimed to simplify the installation process and enhance the overall serviceability of the module, making maintenance …

Sickle cell anemia (SCA) occurs in individuals who are homozygous for the sickle hemoglobin (HbS) allele. The haplotypes of the HbS alleles can be traditionally ascertained through the analysis of five to eight informative restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) within the HBB gene cluster, defining the five major HbS haplotypes, commonly referred to as Bantu or Central African Republic (BAN/CAR), Benin (BEN), Cameroon (CAM), Senegal (SEN), and Arab-Indian (AI). In a recent study, it was suggested that four single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)—rs3834466, rs28440105, rs10128556, and rs968857—are sufficient to characterize most of the HbS haplotypes. In the present study, we investigated the …
