    Abstract Research in field sports often involves analysis of running performance profiles of players during competitive games with individual, per-position, and time-related descriptive statistics. Data are acquired through wearable technologies, which generally capture simple data points, which in the case of many team-based sports are times, latitudes, and longitudes. While the data capture is simple and in relatively high volumes, the raw data are unsuited to any form of analysis or machine learning functions. The main goal of this research is to develop a multistep feature engineering framework that delivers the transformation of sequential data into feature sets more suited to machine learning applications.

    Abstract Background: Foetal PAPCs (pregnancy-associated progenitor cells) begin to cross the placenta in a scheduled manner from early pregnancy and colonise many maternal organs, both in mammals and humans, during each pregnancy. The maternal limbic system appears to be colonised with a 100% frequency when compared with other maternal organs. Once they arrive in the limbic system, foetal PAPCs differentiate into neurons and glial cells, resulting in the formation of new synapses with and among maternal neurons. This process is accompanied by major structural neurobiological alterations orchestrated by hormonal changes characteristic of gestation and involves the limbic system, reward areas, and other closely connected brain structures, i.e., the same areas colonised by foetal PAPCs.
    Objective: To correlate findings regarding microscopic and macroscopic changes induced by foetal stem cell migration into the maternal limbic system and hormonal surges during pregnancy with the biological basis of mother-child attachment dynamics, with a focus on the clinical implications this discovery has for normal, complicated, and assisted pregnancies.
    Evidence review: A literature review of evidence regarding the neuroanatomical correlation between the targeted, colonising migration of foetal PAPCs into the maternal brain and the structural neurobiological alterations within the affective areas related to attachment and reward was conducted.
    Results and conclusions: These findings suggest a synergic effect of cellular and morphological changes, with a common biological aim of conferring an adaptive advantage in motherhood, and with the foetus playing a surprisingly active role in modulating the mother's ability to love and care for it.

    Abstract Cutaneous manifestations of hematologic malignancy represent both a clinical challenge for the treating physician and a pathophysiological model for advancing the knowledge on individual neoplasms. Indeed, a growing body of evidence supports the concept of recurrent molecular defects associating with specific clinical features, as best exemplified by VEXAS. Herein neutrophilic and eosinophilic dermatoses of potential interest for both hematologists and dermatologists will be reviewed, including subcorneal pustular dermatosis-type IgA pemphigus, neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis, Sweet’s syndrome as well as myelodysplasia cutis and VEXAS, pyoderma gangrenosum, eosinophilic annular erythema, eosinophilic dermatosis of hematological malignancy, Wells syndrome and cutaneous involvement in hypereosinophilic syndromes. Possible management approaches are discussed for each, emphasizing scenarios that require treatment of the underlying condition to achieve remission at the skin level.

    Abstract Hearing loss (HL) is the most common and heterogeneous disorder of the sensory system, with a large morbidity in the worldwide population. Among cells of the acoustic nerve (VIII cranial nerve), in the cochlea are present the hair cells, the spiral ganglion neurons, the glia-like supporting cells, and the Schwann cells (SCs), which alterations have been considered cause of HL. Notably, a benign SC-derived tumor of the acoustic nerve, named vestibular schwannoma (VS), has been indicated as cause of HL. Importantly, SCs are the main glial cells ensheathing axons and forming myelin in the peripheral nerves. Following an injury, the SCs reprogram, expressing some stemness features. Despite the mechanisms and factors controlling their biological processes (i.e., proliferation, migration, differentiation, and myelination) have been largely unveiled, their role in VS and HL was poorly investigated. In this review, we enlighten some of the mechanisms at the base of SCs transformation, VS development, and progression, likely leading to HL, and we pose great attention on the environmental factors that, in principle, could contribute to HL onset or progression. Combining the biomolecular bench-side approach to the clinical bedside practice may be helpful for the diagnosis, prediction, and therapeutic approach in otology.

    Abstract This commentary examines the impact of light conditions in the assisted reproductive technology (ART) laboratory, specifically considering gametes and embryo culture. While these processes traditionally occur in the absence of light within the female reproductive tract, laboratory conditions often involve exposure to varying wavelengths, intensities and light sources. Although literature reports describe potential detrimental effects of certain wavelengths of light on biological material, these findings are often based on experiments that might not reflect actual laboratory conditions. Current ART laboratory practices aim to minimize light exposure; however, some procedures necessitate light exposure, typically involving microscopy. Results from the authors' cross-sectional survey on light-intensity practices in ART laboratories revealed the frequent use of inadequate lighting, leading to errors and impacting staff well-being. A failure mode and effects analysis was used to identify potential failure modes and their impacts due to poor lighting. Overall, this manuscript stresses the importance of maintaining proper ambient lighting in the ART laboratory, balancing the potentially detrimental effects of light on gametes and embryos against the need for proper lighting for accurate procedures and staff well-being. Adequate lighting not only ensures the safety of reproductive cells, but also improves process management and the operators' psychological conditions.

    Abstract The entire globe is facing a dangerous pandemic due to the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The medical and scientific community is trying to figure out and adopt effective strategies that can lead to (i) preventing virus expansion; (ii) identifying medications for the management of critical care and reducing rates of mortality; and (iii) finally discovering the highly anticipated vaccine. Nutritional interventions have attained considerable scientific evidence in disease prevention and treatment. The main question, "What is the role of nutrition and food science in this scenario?" requires urgent answer as many theories suggesting that specific food or dietary supplements can fight coronavirus infection have received extensive coverage in most popular social media platforms. In this editorial, we focus on some frequent statements on the role of nutrition and food science in the battle against COVID-19, distinguishing between myths and facts. We highlight that social distancing and hygiene precautions are the best practices for reducing the risk of COVID-19 transmission. We further underline the importance of nutrition in its wholistic concept, pointing out the risk of unproven dietary options that could lead individuals to weaken effective precautionary measures.
