ABSTRACT Polarized synchrotron emission from multiple Faraday depths can be separated by calculating the complex Fourier transform of Stokes’ parameters as a function wavelength squared, known Synthesis. As commonly implemented, introduces an additional term $\lambda _0^2$, which broadens real and imaginary spectra but not amplitude spectrum. We use idealized tests to investigate whether inform...

Methods Following an overnight fast, healthy males (n = 12, age: 24 ± 7 yr, height: 181 ± 6 cm, body mass: 78.1 ± 9.4 kg, VO2max: 47.6 ± 7.1 mL·kg ·min, Wmax: 316 ± 51 W) cycled steady state (40 min, SS1, 56 ± 4%Wmax, SRM Ergometer) followed by a time trial (15 min, TT1,Wattbike cycle ergometer), a 2 hour passive recovery, and cycled steady state (20 min, SS2, power equal to SS1) followed by a ...

BACKGROUND Endurance exercise induces IL-6 production from myocytes that is thought to impair intracellular defence mechanisms. Curcumin inhibits NF-κB and activator protein 1, responsible for cytokine transcription, in cell lines. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of curcumin supplementation on the cytokine and stress responses following 2 h of cycling. METHODS Eleven male ...

Concurrent training (CT) is an efficient strategy to improve neuromuscular function and cardiorespiratory fitness in older adults, which are factors of pivotal importance for the maintenance functional capacity with aging. However, there a lack evidence about effectiveness power (PT) as alternative traditional strength (TST) during CT. Thus, aim present study was examine effect 16 weeks (twice ...

Carbohydrate consumption during exercise enhances endurance performance. A food-focused approach may offer an alternative, ‘healthier’ given the potential health concerns associated with artificial fructose sources, but food-based carbohydrate sources increase gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. This study compared cycling performance and GI comfort of two different (fruit artificial) ingested exer...

Key points Acute nicotinamide riboside (NR) supplementation does not alter substrate metabolism at rest, during or in recovery from endurance exercise. NR NAD+-sensitive signalling pathways human skeletal muscle. and acute exercise influence the NAD+ metabolome. Abstract Oral of precursor has been reported to alongside increasing sirtuin (SIRT) mitochondrial biogenesis rodent However, whether c...

Advanced monitoring methods are required to identify stop criteria in proof-load tests. In this study, the combined methodology of two-dimensional digital image correlation and acoustic emission is investigated for its applicability future implementation field The two systems deemed provide valuable insight with external measurements from internal emission. Two overturned T-section reinforced c...

Growth of Penicillium chrysogenum, Aspergillus flavus, Cladosporium cladosporioides and Alternaria alternata at their respective optimum temperatures was studied in Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) medium at different water activities (a(w)) adjusted with glycerol. The growth rate (mu) was expressed as the increase in colony radius per unit of time. This paper extends the model that showed the relati...

Concurrently high values of the maximum potential wind speed of updrafts (Wmax) and 0-6 km wind shear (Shear) have been found to represent conducive environments for severe weather, which subsequently provides a way to study severe weather in future climates. Here, we employ a model for the product of these variables (WmSh) from the National Center for Atmospheric Research/United States Nationa...

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) exerts both functional and signaling effects extending beyond the effects of testosterone in rodent skeletal muscle. As a primer for investigating the role of DHT in human skeletal muscle function, this study aimed to determine whether circulating DHT is acutely elevated in men following a bout of repeat sprint exercise and to establish the importance of training statu...
