The aim of the present study was to analyze the validation of the equation proposed by Brzycki for the prediction of a maximum repetition (1-RM) in the bench press. Fifty sedentary or moderately active male subjects (22.2 ± 3.5 years; 64.7 ± 8.6 kg), were initially submitted to six test sessions of 1-RM in the bench press, with 48 hours of interval between each session, in order to determine th...

BACKGROUND Three-dimensional (3D) mapping is often used to guide ablation in atrial tachycardia (AT), but maps can be susceptible to annotation and interpolation errors. Ripple Mapping (RM) is a technique that displays electrogram time-voltage data simultaneously as dynamic bars on the surface shell to overcome these limitations. OBJECTIVES We hypothesized that RM would be superior to establi...

We hypothesized that not all patients with appreciably recruited lung tissue during a recruitment maneuver (RM) show significant improvement of oxygenation. In the present study, we combined electrical impedance tomography (EIT) with oxygenation measurements to examine the discrepancies of lung ventilation and perfusion versus oxygenation after RM.A 2-minute RM (20 cm H2O positive end-expirator...

Current observations allow Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) in asteroid mass range $10^{17}-10^{22}$ g to constitute the entire dark matter (DM) energy density (barring a small constrained by 21 cm observations). In this work, we explore possibility of probing PBH with masses $10^{17}-10^{19}\,{\rm g}$ via upcoming X and Gamma Imaging Spectrometer (XGIS) telescope array on-board Transient High-Ene...

Galactic winds are crucial to the cosmic cycle of matter, transporting material out dense regions galaxies. Observations show coexistence different temperature phases in such winds, which is not easy explain. We present a set 3D shock-multicloud simulations that account for radiative heating and cooling at temperatures between $10^2\,\rm K$ $10^7\,\rm K$. The interplay shock heating, dynamical ...

We studied 10 subjects each with melancholic depression evidencing significant motor retardation (RM), Parkinson's disease (PD) with bradykinesia, and normal healthy controls (NC), matched closely for age and gender, on measurements of motor function and depression, and their performance of simple and complex ballistic movements. The simple movements involved the execution of 10 degrees, 20 deg...

It is one of the biggest issues in black hole (BH) astrophysics how to precisely evaluate BH feedback its environments. Aiming at studying unique gas dynamics super-Eddington flow around supermassive (SMBH) seeds high redshift, we carried out axisymmetric two dimensional radiation hydrodynamic simulations by a nested simulation-box method. Here divide simulation box into inner zone $(2 - 3 \tim...

Haem in red meat (RM) stimulates the endogenous production of mutagenic nitroso compounds (NOC). Processed (nitrite-preserved red) meat additionally contains high concentrations of preformed NOC. In two studies, of a fresh RM versus a vegetarian (VEG) diet (six males and six females) and of a nitrite-preserved red meat (PM) versus a VEG diet (5 males and 11 females), we investigated whether pro...
