The purpose of this work was to determine the effects of varying levels of dietary protein on body composition and muscle protein synthesis during energy deficit (ED). A randomized controlled trial of 39 adults assigned the subjects diets providing protein at 0.8 (recommended dietary allowance; RDA), 1.6 (2×-RDA), and 2.4 (3×-RDA) g kg(-1) d(-1) for 31 d. A 10-d weight-maintenance (WM) period w...

Bibliographic description in emerging library standards is embracing a multi-entity model that describes varying levels of abstraction from the conceptual work to the physical item. Three of these multi-entity models have been published as vocabularies using the Semantic Web standard Resource Description Framework (RDF): FRBR, RDA, and BIBFRAME. The authors test RDF data based on the three voca...

In this paper, we describe several approaches to language-independent spoken term detection and compare their performance n a common task, namely “Spoken Web Search”. The goal of this part of the MediaEval initiative is to perform low-resource anguage-independent audio search using audio as input. The data was taken from “spoken web” material collected over mobile hone connections by IBM India ...

A unified picture of nucleon antinucleon annihilation into pions emerges from a classical description of the pion wave produced in annihilation and the subsequent quantization of that wave as a coherent state. When the constraints of energy-momentum and iso-spin conservation are imposed on the coherent state, the pion number distribution and charge ratios are found to be in excellent agreement ...

We assume that nucleon antinucleon annihilation is a fast process leading to a classical coherent pion pulse. We develop the quantum description of such pion waves based on the method of coherent states. We study the consequences of such a description for averages of charge types and moments of distributions of pion momenta with iso-spin and four-momentum conservation taken into account. We bri...

OBJECTIVE Current dietary guidelines recommend adequate intake of magnesium (310-420 mg daily) in order to maintain health and lower the risk of cardiovascular disease. Recent evidence from animal and clinical studies suggests that magnesium may be associated with inflammatory processes. The objective of this study was to determine whether dietary magnesium consumption is associated with C-reac...
