the aim of this study was to assess the effects of eight weeks of continuous running trainingand four weeks of detraining on lipid peroxidation (mda) and anti-oxidative system response after an acute exercise session. for this purpose, 20 sedentary healthy males were randomly divided into two groups: experimental and control. at the beginning, before and after one acute exercise session, blood ...

BACKGROUND Acoustic reflectometry is a relatively new technique that quantifies upper airway obstruction. The oropharyngeal airway is geometrically complex and variable; therefore establishing a standard operating protocol and understanding the possible sources of artifacts are of great importance in obtaining reliable results. This work aims at assessing the repeatability of pharyngeal cross-s...

Reliable estimates of peak particle velocity (PPV) from blasting-induced vibrations at a construction site play crucial role in minimizing damage to nearby structures and maximizing blasting efficiency. However, reliably estimating PPV can be challenging due complex connections between influential factors such as ground conditions. While many efforts have been made estimate reliably, discrepanc...
