Background: The body of empirical research is suggestive of the fact that faster walking speed and increasing heel height can both give rise to elevated plantar pressures. However, there is little evidence of the interaction between walking speed and heel height on changes in plantar pressure. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate whether the effect of heel height on plantar press...

In a multicenter population-based case-control study that included 1,588 cases and 1,394 controls less than age 45 years, the authors examined the relation of adult body size and breast cancer risk among young women. Breast cancer patients and healthy controls were identified in Atlanta, Georgia; Seattle/Puget Sound, Washington; and central New Jersey. Cases were newly diagnosed with in situ or...

[1] Incorporation of isotopically light metabolic carbon (CM) can obscure carbon isotope records of dissolved inorganic carbon from biogenic carbonates. Ontogenic increases of CM are common in marine bivalved mollusks, likely reflecting increasing absolute metabolism with increasing body size. Here we use shell aragonite from four specimens of Pyganodon cataracta to test if the same is true in ...

Linear growth retardation during childhood is a determinant of short stature and impaired capacities in adults of developing countries. To study the effect of diarrhea on height during childhood, the authors followed a birth cohort of 224 Peruvian children for 35 months with records of daily diarrhea and monthly anthropometry. This study was conducted from April 1995 to December 1998. At 24 mon...

BACKGROUND Clinical determination of mid-parental height is an important part of the assessment of a child's growth, however our clinical impression has been that parents cannot be relied upon to accurately report their own heights. Therefore, we conducted this study to assess the accuracy of parental height self-reporting and its effect on calculated mid-parental target height for children pre...

CONTEXT Use of growth hormone (GH) therapy to promote growth in children with idiopathic short stature is controversial. A fundamental issue underlying the controversy is uncertainty about the magnitude of effectiveness of GH for this condition. OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of GH on short- and long-term growth in idiopathic short stature. STUDY DESIGN Systematic review of controlled an...

Harvesting frequency and intensity are management criteria in forage plants their choices affect herbage yield quality. The objectives of the study were to evaluate yields morphological components chemical composition (crude protein, neutral detergent fiber acid fiber) Saia oats (Avena strigosa Schreb) at three harvest frequencies (40, 50 60 cm sward height) intensities (8, 14 20 residual folia...
