Abstract:
... The nonlinear components of predictors could be informative, while conventional predictive regression models only consider the linear components in the time-series prediction of crude oil price returns. Inspired by this, we propose a novel method to obtain useful information embedded in the predictors’ nonlinearity. We incorporate not only the original predictors (i.e., the linear components) but ...

Abstract:
... We compared central and peripheral arterial stiffness response patterns between persons with and without intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) of different age groups at rest and following a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET). Fifteen young adults with and without IDD, and 15 middle-aged adults without IDD performed a CPET. Central and peripheral arterial stiffness were measured at r ...

Abstract:
... Executive functions (EFs) encompass a wide array of cognitive processes, which appear to be influenced by genetic variants of the COMT, DRD2/ANKK1, and BDNF polymorphisms. The present study aimed to investigate whether COMT Val158Met (rs4680), DRD2/ANKK1 (rs1800497), and BDNF Val66Met (rs6265) polymorphisms were associated with EFs assessed at rest and during moderate acute physical exercise.

Abstract:
... Background: Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is one of the most common musculoskeletal disorders. Physical activity (PA) is often recommended as part of the management of CLBP, but to date, no one particular exercise has been shown to be superior. Vibrating exercise equipment (VEE) is widely available and used despite little scientific evidence to support its effectiveness in the prevention and treatm ...

Abstract:
... Many young adults on the autism spectrum do not attain the recommended minimum weekly amount of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) to prevent significant health risks. Autism symptoms as well as environmental factors may play a key role in the physical activity (PA) behaviors of young adults on the autism spectrum. The socioecological model (SEM) has been previously used to identify det ...
... 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. ...

Abstract:
... The purpose of this study was to determine if rating of perceived exertion (RPE) during non-weight-bearing exercise is influenced by gestational age and exercise training. We conducted a randomized controlled trial to examine the influence of gestational age and exercise training (three to four times per week for 25–40 minutes at 50%–70% of heart rate reserve) on RPE during an exhaustive cycling e ...

Abstract:
... Background: Older adult patients with post-COVID-19 syndrome present greater physical impairment accompanied by frailty than younger patients, which is why multicomponent exercise programs (MEP) are recommended for their positive effects on improving frailty and physical capacity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a short MEP (Vivifrail; <4 weeks) on improving frailty in post-CO ...
... Maximal voluntary contraction force (MVC), potentiated twitch force (Qₚₒₜ), and voluntary activation (%VA) recover to baseline within 90 s following extreme-intensity exercise. However, methodological limitations mask important recovery kinetics. We hypothesized reductions in MVC, Qₚₒₜ, and %VA at task failure following extreme-intensity exercise would be less than following severe-intensity exerc ...
... Thermoregulatory changes may influence the rats' prolonged physical performance and are commonly evaluated during treadmill running. Therefore, we determined the reliability of performance and thermoregulatory parameters in rats subjected to incremental-speed exercises (i.e., we assessed whether the testing protocol provides measurements that are consistent and free from error). Twenty rats were s ...
exercise, etc ; biodiversity; biodiversity conservation; Show all 3 Subjects
Abstract:
... Biodiversity loss is a result of interacting ecological and economic factors, and it must be addressed through an analysis of biodiversity conservation policies. Ecological-economic modelling is a helpful approach to this analysis, but it is also challenging since modellers often have a specific disciplinary background and tend to misrepresent either the ecological or economic aspects. Here, we in ...

Abstract:
... Resting heart rate variability (HRV) and maximal fat oxidation (MFO) during exercise are both considered as a noninvasive biomarkers for early detection of cardiovascular risk factors. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the relationship between resting HRV parameters and MFO during exercise, and the intensity of exercise that elicit MFO (Fatₘₐₓ) in healthy sedentary adults. A total of 103 healthy y ...
... The morphological and mechanical properties (e.g., stiffness, stress, and force) of the Achilles tendon (AT) are generally associated with its tendinosis and ruptures, particularly amongst runners. Interest in potential approaches to reduce or prevent the risk of AT injuries has grown exponentially as tendon mechanics have been efficiently improving. The following review aims to discuss the effect ...

Abstract:
... This study evaluated whether front and hind limb symmetry patterns observed from 1.5 through 3 years of age in Standardbred trotters in training affect racing activity at older age. The hypothesis tested was that asymmetries observed during this period are linked to reduced number of lifetime races and low earnings. Sixteen Standardbreds were subjected to a controlled training and dietary programm ...
... There is a fine line between eating and exercising “for one's health” and adopting obsessive dietary practices. Not currently recognised in the DSM-5, Orthorexia Nervosa is a proposed eating disorder characterized by an unhealthy obsession with eating healthy foods. In this study, we explored people's self-identified experiences of highly significant dietary and exercise practices, which whilst co ...
... Les patients souffrant de troubles des conduites alimentaires restrictifs (TCAr) sont exposés à un risque important de complications, notamment la survenue d’une dénutrition. La mesure de la fonction musculaire peut désormais indiquer la présence de cette complication. L’exploration de la fonction musculaire peut également être un bon outil d’acceptation de la prise de poids chez les patientes sou ...

Abstract:
... There is growing evidence that physical exercise (PE) may boost cognitive performance. However, criteria regarding PE intensity, duration, and frequency are still being studied. We hypothesize that high PE intensities have effects on inhibitory control. For this reason, our aim was to study the effect of acute PE on IC in healthy young students of a bachelor's degree in physical education and exer ...

Abstract:
... Breast biomechanics, exercise-induced breast pain (EIBP) and performance effects in female athletes are established. Wearing sports bras during exercise reduces breast movement and EIBP. Despite the prevalence of female equestrians, little investigation of breast movement during horse riding exists, yet excessive breast movement, embarrassment and EIBP are reported. Breast movement relative to the ...

Ballistic six plyometric training improves throwing activity in throwing sports, improves rotator cuff muscular strength, and prevents and reduces the risk of shoulder injury associated with overhead pitching. Kinesiotaping is used in rehabilitation, as a treatment for sportsrelated injuries, and as a means of injury prevent ...
