    Background: Pupil dilations of the eye are known to correspond to central cognitive processes. Pupil size variations have been used for many years as a window on the mind, and various pupillary features have been associated with a number of cognitive processesAim: The aim of this study is to examine levels of cognitive workload that occur during the aiming task of air-pistol shooting athletes according to the change that takes place in the pupils.Methods: Eight right-handed skilled male shooters (4 elite and 4 novice) were recruited in this study. A total of 320 shots - 160 dry (unscored) shots and 160 live (scored) shots - were recorded with a mobile eye-tracking device. The obtained pupil data were subjected to biometric analysis. The athletes' pupil sizes were determined with the independent samples t-test according to whether the shot made was scored or unscored and whether the athletes were elite or novice. The athletes' pupil size values at the beginning and end of the shot were obtained using the paired samples t-test.Results: On completion of the shot, the sport shooters' pupils dilated on average by 2.85 mm at a rate of 32.5% compared to the situation at shot onset. Moreover, novice shooters' pupils dilated more when firing scored shots than when firing unscored shots. According to the research results, it can be said that sports shooters engage in intensive cognitive processes while aiming and trigger pulling immediately before firing the shot. Novice shooters engage in more intensive cognitive processes when firing scored shots than when firing unscored shots.Conclusion: According to the results of the research, it can be said that in the sport of air pistol shooting, giving priority to dry (unscored) shooting training can contribute positively to the development of novice athletes' aiming task skills and cognitive load capacity.

    The quiet eye durations of air pistol shooting athletes
    (Lahore Medical Research Center Llp, 2021-07-01) Vardar, Tonguç; Senduran, Fatih; VARDAR, TONGUÇ; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Beden Eğitimi ve Spor Bilimleri Fakültesi; JRV-6483-2023
    Background: The Focusing the attention during the preparation period undergone immediately before carrying out a motor performance is vitally important for success. Visual ability, Quiet Eye and focusing the attention on the appropriate area play a critical role in achieving successful performance in branches of sport. Quiet eye (QE) is defined as the final fixation of the pupil on a location or object for a specific motor task.Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the durations of effective and final focusing (quiet eye) carried out during the process of taking aim at the target by air pistol shooting athletes with their eyes immediately before taking a shot.Methods: A total of 8 right-handed male licensed pistol shooting athletes (4 novice and 4 elite) participated in the research. A total of 320 shots -160 dry (unscored) and 160 live (scored) shots were taken by the novice and elite athletes. For the purpose of recording pupil movements and quiet eye durations during the shots taken by the athletes, an eye-tracking device attached to the head was used. The recorded data were examined with iMotions computer software, which can perform biometric analysis. The athletes' quiet eye durations occurring when taking aim at the target were examined according to athletes' characteristics (novice and elite) and the type of shot carried out (scored and unscored) by means of the independent samples t-test.Results: The findings of the study revealed that the athletes had 25.3% longer quiet eye durations when firing scored shots than when firing unscored shots (p = .000). Especially, novice athletes exhibited 37.8% longer periods of focusing behaviour when firing scored shots than when firing unscored shots (p = .000). Elite athletes displayed 21.26% longer periods of focusing behaviour when firing unscored shots compared with novice athletes (p = .005).Conclusion: According to the results of the research, it can be said that in the sport of air pistol shooting, giving priority to dry shooting training and conducting special exercises for developing quiet eye (QE) duration can contribute positively to the development of novice athletes' shooting skills.

    Regular exercise, thombocyte, collagen and breast cancer

    Platelets, which play a very important role in the continuation of vital activities, play an important role in blood coagulation. Various chronic diseases can reduce the platelets produced by our body below the standard level or increase them in a dangerous way. Diseases related to malignancy, that is, malignant tumors, come at the beginning of the diseases that disrupt the platelet balance. One of them is breast cancer. Breast cancer is a type of cancer that occurs as a result of mutations in the BRCA1 (17q21) and P53 (17p13) genes located on the 17th chromosome and the BRCA2 gene located on the 13th chromosome. It is known that the amount of bone mass due to estrogen hormone is closely related to the formation of breast cancer. Collagen is the protein that forms bones, cartilage fibers and joints, which are the building blocks of our motor (movement) system. The main protein that forms the main structure of the bone is Type I collagen and about 30 types of collagen have been defined. It acts as a support for bone and cartilage tissue. Regular exercise, on the other hand, is a type of regular, systematic and programmed physical activity done with the aim of improving the physical and mental state of the person. There are many studies that found that exercise increases the tendency of platelet aggregation (aggregation, aggregation, aggregation). In addition, there are scientific studies that show that regular exercise and regularly used collagen stop the progression of breast cancer.The aim of this scientific review is to describe the relationship between platelet, collagen, breast cancer and regular exercise.

    Long-term effects of wearing the elevation training mask on physical performance in young soccer players
    (Univ Ljubljana, Fac Sport, 2019-01-01) Girak, İbrahim; ARABACI, RAMİZ; VARDAR, TONGUÇ; TOPÇU, HÜSEYİN; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Eğitim Fakültesi/Beden Eğitimi ve Spor Bölümü.; AET-8842-2022; AAZ-4372-2021; ABI-4831-2020
    The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of the 6-week soccer training in on-session on the physical performance (PP) in 17-19 years old soccer players wearing elevation training mask (ETM) during workout. A total of thirty-six healthy soccer players (mean age 17.81 +/- 0.89 years, weight 65.95 +/- 5.72 kg, height 177.06 +/- 4.56 cm and BMI 22.1 +/- 2 kg/m(2)) voluntarily participated in the present study. Participants randomly were divided into an experimental group (EG) and control group (CG). EG (n=14) used elevation training mask (R) 2 (set-up as 2750 m altitude, wear in 3 workout a total of 270 min/week), while CG (n=22) didn't use ETM during interventions. Two groups completed the same soccer training program. Alactic anerobic power (ALAnPw), maximal oxygen use, fatigue index, average power output (APO), speed and flexibility of participants were evaluated.After carried-out a 2x2 ANOVA analysis for changes between pre-test and post-test values of two groups, there were no significant differences (p>0.05) of ALAnPw (F = 0.168, eta(2) = 0.002), flexibility (F = 0.030, eta(2) = 0.001), fatigue index (F = 0.036, eta(2) = 0.001), APO (F = 0.029, eta(2) = 0.001), VO2max (F = 0.382, eta(2) = 0.011), and Speed (F = 0.023, eta(2) = 0.001) between EG and CG. In conclusion, the use of ETM during soccer practices can increase physical performance of young soccer players. However, these improvements were not more than improvements in conventional conditions.
