... Heart rate can be considered as an indicator of the exercise intensity in people’s daily physical activities. Five heart rate zone theory is commonly adopted by individuals and professional athletes during their exercises and training. These heart rate zones are based upon percentages of people’s maximal heart rate, which indicate different exercise intensities. The aim of paper is to propose an o ...

Abstract:
... Mediation analysis is of rising interest in epidemiologic studies and clinical trials. Among existing methods, the joint significance test yields an overly conservative Type I error rate and low power, particularly for high-dimensional mediation hypotheses. In this article, we develop a multiple-testing procedure that accurately controls the family-wise error rate (FWER) and the false discovery ra ...
... Sorption of nutrients such as NH₄⁺ is often quoted as a critical property of biochar, explaining its value as a soil amendment and a filter material. However, published values for NH₄⁺ sorption to biochar vary by more than 3 orders of magnitude, without consensus as to the source of this variability. This lack of understanding greatly limits our ability to use quantitative sorption measurements to ...

Abstract:
... Obesity is a significant health problem, with increasing involvement of young population worldwide. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of 2 different types of physical exercise (resistance vs. combined aerobic-resistance) on cardiovascular and anthropometric profile of a sample of sedentary adolescents with overweight and obesity. After undergoing clinical, cardiovascular and anthro ...

Abstract:
... We aimed to investigate whether the expression levels and polymorphisms in the ADRB2 gene have influenced the anthropometric and cardiometabolic outcomes changes in obese/overweight children submitted to physical exercise programs. This longitudinal study included 197 overweight or obese children aged 10–16 years, submitted to physical exercise programs - three sessions per week for 12 weeks. Anth ...
... Hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus impairs endothelial function and disrupts microRNA (miRNA) profiles in vasculature, increasing the risk of diabetes-associated complications, including coronary artery disease, diabetic retinopathy, and diabetic nephropathy. miR-181b was previously reported to be an anti-inflammatory mediator in vasculature against atherosclerosis. The current study aimed to inve ...
... Among the respiratory disorders in dogs from small breeds, tracheal collapse is one of the most commonly found in clinical practice. Presently, acupuncture is widely used as an alternative treatment which was shown to bring about positive effects in the treatment of human respiratory diseases. The present study demonstrated the effect of acupuncture on tracheal collapse dogs. We hypothesized that ...
... Duration, intensity, and type of exercise can affect serum cytokine levels and change inflammatory indices. The present study aimed to examine the acute effect of two different exercise intensity programs on levels of circulating interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β and tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in athletes. Eleven female futsal players aged 20.6±1.2 years completed this cross-over study. Participants ...
... Energetically demanding conditions such as hypoxia and exercise favour anaerobic metabolism (glycolysis), which leads to acidification of the cellular milieu from ATP hydrolysis and accumulation of the anaerobic end-product, lactate. Cellular acidification may damage mitochondrial proteins and/or alter the H⁺ gradient across the mitochondrial inner membrane, which may in turn impact mitochondrial ...

Abstract:
... This study compared the effects of a real-world multidisciplinary intervention with additional exercise or nutritional elements and investigated the effectiveness of a booster intervention after weight regain. A total of 242 children and adolescents (age- and sex-specific body mass index [BMI] ≥ 85th percentile, mean age: 10.82 years, 60% male) were allocated to three groups: usual care, exercise, ...

Abstract:
... Anhedonia, which in part involves the lack of pleasure in consuming palatable food, is a long-lasting symptom observed in patients both when acutely ill and when long term recovered from Anorexia Nervosa. The neurocircuitry underlying this phenomenon is not well understood. Here we use the preclinical activity-based anorexia (ABA) model in adolescent female rats to assess the impact of excessive e ...
... This study aimed to investigate the effect of aerobic exercise combined with glucosamine (OTL) on the apoptosis of chondrocytes of rabbit knee osteoarthritis (KOA) by affecting the expression of TRPV5. After the KOA white rabbit model was established, aerobic training and OTL treatment were performed, then the model joints were evaluated by Mankin, HE staining was used to observe the pathological ...
... Lung inflammation is modulated by cholinergic signaling and exercise training protects mice against pulmonary emphysema development; however, whether exercise training engages cholinergic signaling is unknown. As cholinergic signaling is directly linked to the vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) levels, we evaluated whether the effects of aerobic exercise training depend on the VAChT level ...
... Physical activity and diet are recommended lifestyle strategies to improve human health. Consequently, this study aimed to investigate the impact of aerobic exercise combined with dietary restriction on hormonal, metabolic, and psychological variables in postmenopausal women. Eligible 60 women were enrolled and assigned into two equal groups; the experimental group performed aerobic exercise three ...
... Glucocorticoids are released in response to acute aerobic exercise. The objective was to define changes in the expression of glucocorticoid target genes in skeletal muscle in response to acute aerobic exercise at different times of day. We identified glucocorticoid target genes altered in skeletal muscle by acute exercise by comparing data sets from rodents subjected to acute aerobic exercise in t ...
... Telemetric temperature capsules are frequently utilized to measure deep body temperature. Whereas most methods to measure temperature are conducted at a single site (e.g., rectal temperature), the location of ingested telemetry capsules varies. If distinct regions of the gastrointestinal tract have different temperatures, the measurements obtained using telemetry capsules will vary accordingly. Th ...

Abstract:
... Safe land use of agricultural territories implies the mandatory preservation of the state's land resources, which are its crucial strategic resources. The relevance of this study is conditioned upon the abundance of issues of safe land use in Ukraine, specifically in the agricultural sector of Ukraine, not least due to the difficulties of exercising the citizens' right to safe use of agricultural ...
... A few population-based studies have looked at how the Corona virus disease (COVID-19) pandemic and outbreak-related lockdown has impacted people's daily eating habits and lifestyles. Due to the emergence of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), continuous lockdown or social isolation can alter dietary consumption patterns and lifestyle routines, resulting in significan ...
... We derive an analytical bias correction for two-step fixed effects models with copula-distributed errors. We work out the approximate bias correction for the Gaussian copula and present a numerical computation exercise for three other copula families. The results are derived for both n and T large. ...

... We analyzed the effects of apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) deficiency, as well as those of an exercise training intervention on autophagy across tissues (heart, skeletal muscle, cerebellum and brain), that are primarily affected by mitochondrial diseases, using a preclinical model of these conditions, the Harlequin (Hq) mouse. Autophagy markers were analyzed in: (i) 2, 3 and 6 month-old male wild- ...
