Immediate and short-term consequences of secondhand smoke exposure on the respiratory system
(2011)
Purpose of review This review critically evaluates the existing biological evidence regarding the immediate and short-term respiratory consequences of secondhand smoke (SHS). Recent findings A 1-h exposure to SHS at ...
Association between habitual physical activity and brown adipose tissue activity in individuals undergoing PET-CT scan
(2015)
ObjectiveAugmented brown adipose tissue (BAT) mass and activity lead to higher basic metabolic rate which is beneficial against obesity. Our aim was to investigate whether habitual (i.e. usual weekly participation) physical ...
Prevalence of Low Bone Mineral Density in Female Dancers
(2015)
Background and Objective While some authors report that dancers have reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and increased risk of osteoporosis, others have stressed the positive effects of dance training on developing healthy ...
Prediction of (V) over dotO(2max) from a new field test based on portable indirect calorimetry
(2010)
We assessed the validity and reliability of the new 15 m square shuttle run test (SST) for predicting laboratory treadmill test (TT) maximal oxygen uptake ((V) over dotO(2max)) compared to the 20 in multistage shuttle run ...
Molecular pathways linking non-shivering thermogenesis and obesity: focusing on brown adipose tissue development
(2015)
An increase in energy intake and/or a decrease in energy expenditure lead to fat storage, causing overweight and obesity phenotypes. The objective of this review was to analyse, for the first time using a systematic approach, ...
Autonomic nervous system modulation during an archery competition in novice and experienced adolescent archers
(2011)
We assessed autonomic nervous system modulation through changes in heart rate variability during an archery competition as well as archery performance by comparing novice and experienced adolescent archers. Seven novice ...
Early life mammalian biology and later life physical performance: maximising physiological adaptation
(2011)
The malleability of mammalian biology during early life, which carries considerable weight throughout the course of the lifespan, may contribute to the creation of a human phenotype ideal for prime physical performance. ...
EXERCISE AND EXPOSURE TO HEAT FOLLOWING BOVINE COLOSTRUM SUPPLEMENTATION: A REVIEW OF GASTROINTESTINAL AND IMMUNE FUNCTION
(2013)
Colostrum is the first milk produced by mammalian mothers and is essential for the health and survival of the newborn. Bovine colostrum (BC) has greater concentrations of the bioactive components (i.e. immune and growth ...
