Effects of variable practice on learning free throw in basketball
The study investigates the impact of variable practice on free throw effectiveness in basketball, comparing it to traditional repetition-based methods. Twenty-two basketball players, aged around 14.8 years, were divided into an experimental group (GE) and a control group (GC). The GE underwent a variable practice protocol involving changes in time, space, body schema, and instrument over eight weeks, while the GC followed traditional repetition training. Significant improvements in free throw effectiveness were observed in the GE post-training, with notable differences between the groups in post-test results, highlighting the benefits of variable practice over traditional methods.
Osteomyelitis of non-traumatic circumscribed myositis ossificans in the leg: case report
A case of non-traumatic circumscribed myositis ossificans in both legs is presented, initially suspected as osteomyelitis of the right tibia. The patient exhibited a medial ulcer with exposed bone tissue and secondary infection. Orthopedic intervention included wound irrigation, culture isolation, and targeted antibiotic treatment, leading to successful clinical evolution and discharge with wound care and compression measures. Follow-up showed successful wound healing without bone exposure. The report emphasizes that heterotopic ossifications can experience similar complications as other bone tissues when exposed.
Carabineros detains woman accused of killing her four-month-old son in Puente Alto
Carabineros detained a woman in Puente Alto accused of killing her four-month-old son. The police responded to a call from a man who reported threats from his ex-partner. Upon arrival, they found the baby deceased and transported him to Hospital Sótero del Río, where his death was confirmed. Captain Óscar González stated that medical professionals suspected criminal activity, leading to the mother's arrest.
Barrels found in Coronel contained hand sanitizer
More than 60 barrels found near Coronel in the Biobío region contained hand sanitizer, not accelerants, as confirmed by Carabineros' General Carlos González. Labocar's analysis showed that the gel in the sanitizer neutralizes combustion. The discovery, amidst ongoing forest fires, led to a joint operation involving the Army, Carabineros, and PDI. Local authorities, including Mayor Boris Chamorro, were present. The presidential delegate for Biobío, Daniela Dresdner, urged caution in spreading panic-inducing messages.
Minvu delivers the first permanent home to a family affected by central zone fires
The Ministry of Housing and Urbanism, led by Carlos Montes, delivered the first permanent home built with industrialized technology to a family affected by the central zone fires in La Araucanía. This initiative aims to expedite the reconstruction of approximately 3,000 homes. The project, involving collaboration between public and private sectors, was praised for its efficiency and quality, featuring thermal insulation and air circulation systems. The effort underscores the urgency of addressing housing needs and includes plans for additional family support through greenhouse construction.
PDI detains a man who imported kits from Israel to modify firearms
The Policía de Investigaciones (PDI), in coordination with the Servicio Nacional de Aduanas, detained a man importing firearm modification kits from Israel. The individual possessed a significant amount of weaponry, including conversion kits for Glock pistols, which are prohibited in Chile. The PDI seized various firearms and over 3,400 rounds of ammunition. The suspect, a Chilean citizen with a sports shooting permit, was arrested after a controlled delivery of the illegal kit. He faces charges of illicit arms trafficking, illegal possession of ammunition, and possession of prohibited items. The confiscated weapons will be analyzed for modifications.
Groundwater Extraction Changed Earth's Rotation
A study published in Geophysical Research Letters reveals that human extraction of groundwater has tilted Earth's axis by approximately 78.48 centimeters. The redistribution of groundwater, particularly in North America and northwest India, has significantly influenced this shift. Researchers estimate that between 1993 and 2010, humans pumped at least 2,150 gigatonnes of groundwater, contributing to a 6.24-millimeter rise in sea levels. While the immediate impact on climate is minimal, long-term effects on Earth's rotation and sea levels are concerning.
Women with early breast cancer will survive more than 5 years
A study by the University of Oxford reveals a significant decrease in the five-year mortality rate for women diagnosed with early breast cancer, dropping from 14% to 5% since 1990. The study, published in the British Medical Journal, analyzed data from over 500,000 women in England and attributes the improvement to early diagnosis. Experts like Carolyn Taylor and Jennifer Simmons highlight the importance of these findings, though Simmons cautions that increased detection might include non-clinically relevant cancers. In Chile, breast cancer remains a leading cause of death among women, prompting government initiatives for early detection and free preventive mammograms.
Red alert declared in Collipulli due to forest fire
The Servicio Nacional de Prevención y Respuesta ante Desastres (Senapred) has declared a red alert for the commune of Collipulli within the Malleco National Reserve in the La Araucanía Region due to an ongoing forest fire. The fire is located in the Los Guindos sector, having burned 0.01 hectares so far. Firefighters are actively combating the blaze. The red alert will mobilize all necessary and available resources to support the fire's extinction, in addition to those already deployed by Conaf, firefighters, and the national disaster response system.
Exhibition reveals unknown details about Neanderthals
Neanderthals, often mischaracterized as unintelligent, were actually intelligent, creative, and compassionate beings. The 'Neanderthal' exhibition at NTNU University Museum in Norway reveals their advanced hunting techniques, empathy, and adaptability. Archaeologist Trine Kellberg Nielsen highlights their ability to care for the sick and elderly, which contributed to their survival for over 300,000 years. Despite their extinction 40,000 years ago, Neanderthals left a genetic legacy in modern humans, with studies showing that 1.5% to 2.1% of human DNA is of Neanderthal origin. Their extinction is attributed to competition with Homo sapiens and limited genetic variation.
