Less Sitting, More Sleep and MVPA Linked to Better Glycaemic Stability in Children with Type 1 Diabetes: A 2‑Year Compositional Analysis

A longitudinal compositional analysis of 83 children with type 1 diabetes found that reallocating daily time away from sedentary behaviour toward sleep or moderate‑to‑vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was associated with lower HbA1c and interstitial glucose over two years.

Unraveling Hamstring Injury Mechanisms and Eccentric Training Adaptations: Integrative Insights and Future Preventive Strategies

Hamstring injuries mainly occur during the late swing phase of running due to high eccentric forces and neural factors. Eccentric training reduces injury risk through complex muscle adaptations involving contractile, non-contractile, and neural components. Further research is essential to optimize prevention.

Optimizing Muscle Recovery: Evidence-Based Insights on Cold, Heat, Contrast, and Hypoxia Therapies for Post-Exercise Muscle Damage

This review synthesizes evidence from randomized controlled trials on environmental stress-based therapies—cold, heat, contrast, and hypoxia—for enhancing muscle recovery after exercise-induced muscle damage, emphasizing the importance of application modalities for therapeutic efficacy.
