Association between protein intake and muscle wasting in critically ill children: A prospective cohort study (2024)
Journal Article
Tume, L. N., Simons, C., Latten, L., Huang, C., Comfort, P., Compton, V., …Valla, F. V. (in press). Association between protein intake and muscle wasting in critically ill children: A prospective cohort study. Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, https://doi.org/10.1002/jpen.2627

Background: Survival from pediatric critical illness in high‐income countries is high, and the focus now must be on optimizing the recovery of survivors. Muscle mass wasting during critical illness is problematic, so identifying factors that may redu...

The effect of rest redistribution on kinetic and kinematic variables during the hang pull (2024)
Journal Article
Meechan, D., McMahon, J. J., Suchomel, T. J., & Comfort, P. (in press). The effect of rest redistribution on kinetic and kinematic variables during the hang pull. PloS one, 19(2), e0299311. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0299311

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of rest redistribution (RR) on kinetics and kinematics during the hang pull (HP). Twenty-one male athletes (age 29.5 ± 4.3 years, height 1.78 ± 0.07 m, body mass 75.17 ± 11.11 kg, relative one repetiti...

Relative strength explains the differences in multi-joint rapid force production between sexes (2024)
Journal Article
Comfort, P., McMahon, J. J., Lake, J. P., Ripley, N. J., Triplett, N. T., & Haff, G. G. (in press). Relative strength explains the differences in multi-joint rapid force production between sexes. PloS one, 19(2), e0296877. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0296877

The primary aim of this study was to determine whether relative strength explains the differences in the rapid force production (force developed during first 150-, 200-, and 250 ms) of females and males, and to evaluate the relationships between peak...

Effect of Sampling Frequency on a Unilateral Isometric Hamstring Strength Assessment Using Force Plates (2024)
Journal Article
Ripley, N., McMahon, J., & Comfort, P. (in press). Effect of Sampling Frequency on a Unilateral Isometric Hamstring Strength Assessment Using Force Plates. #Journal not on list,

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of sampling frequency on the 90-90 (90-degrees hip and knee flexion) isometric hamstring assessment. Thirty-three elite female soccer players (age: 18.7 ± 3.7 years; height: 158.3 ± 5.9 cm; body m...
