DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0302463
Abstract: Objectives Soccer heading is adversely associated with neurocognitive performance, but whether greater neck strength or anthropometrics mitigates these outcomes is controversial. Here, we examine the effect of neck strength or anthropometrics on associations of soccer… read more here.

DOI: 10.3346/jkms.2022.37.e66
Abstract: Background Despite the close relationship between osteoporosis and chronic pulmonary diseases, few studies have evaluated relationships between pulmonary functions and bone quality. We investigated associations between pulmonary function test results and femoral neck strength indices… read more here.
