introduction: purpose of this study was the effect of different music rhythms (fast rhythm and slow rhythm) in physiological responses of health young male after an exhaustive exercise session during primary minutes of recovery period. methods: seventeen healthy male (ages: 19.76 ± 0.97 yr, height: 176 ± 6.72 cm, weight: 68.5 ±7 5.95 kg), voluntarily performed bruce protocol until exhaustion wi...

BACKGROUND Antibiotic use in infancy disrupts gut microflora during a critical period for immune system development. It is hypothesized that this could predispose to the development of allergic diseases. We investigated the associations of antibiotic use in the first 2 yr of life with the development of asthma, eczema or hay fever by age 7.5 yr in a longitudinal birth cohort. METHODS Subjects...

The decline of N from N-labelled mature pea residues was followed in unplanted soil over 16.5 yr. Eight years after residue incorporation, 24% of the residue N input was still present in the soil and, after 16.5 yr, 16% of the residue N input remained. A double exponential model successfully described the decay of N from N-labelled pea residues. The total residual N declined with average decay ...

the present study was conducted to estimate genetic parameters and genetic, environmental and phenotypic trends of milk production traits in holstein cattle of hamedan province. in this study 11986 305-d records of first three parities of hamedan province holstein cattle, which were gathered during 1990-2011, were used. variance-covariance components and breeding values were estimated using ani...

This 4-yr study was conducted with Angus (A)-sired and Polled Hereford (PH)-sired crossbred heifers that were exposed to either A or medium-frame Brahman (B) bulls from primiparous calvings either as 2- or 3-yr-olds. Each year, heifers were allotted at random within breed composition and age of dam to breeding groups on pasture for an 84-d breeding period that began in late March or early April...

There are no previous large scale studies which have evaluated the phenotypes and clinical characteristics of Korean Crohn's disease patients who underwent intestinal resection. The purpose of this multicenter retrospective cohort study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics of Korean Crohn's disease patients who underwent intestinal resection during the study period. A total of 686 patie...

A total of 1710 primary amputees have been studied over a 25 year period and their survival time has been calculated. These were all consecutive primary lower limb amputees admitted to the Dundee Limb Fitting Centre during the period 1965-1989. Overall, the median survival was 4 yr 9 mth for the below-knee amputee (1019 patients) and 4 yr 3 mth for the above-knee amputee (586 patients). The vas...

Weaning weight records of 27,774 Angus calves in 13 herds and 14,738 Hereford calves in 11 herds born during 1953 through 1983 in Virginia were analyzed using regression techniques and maximum likelihood (ML) procedures to estimate phenotypic and genetic trends for adjusted weaning weight (AWWT), weaning weight ratio (WWR) and deviations of AWWT from the mean AWWT of the contemporary group (DEV...

This study examines the long-term variability of UV solar irradiances at 305 nm and 325 nm over selected sites in Canada, Europe and Japan. Site selection was restricted to the availability of the most complete UV spectroradiometric datasets during the period 1990–2011. The analysis includes the long-term variability of total ozone, aerosol optical depth and cloud fraction at the sites studied....
