PURPOSE: Shot-put is a complex ballistic movement that involves segments’ translational and rotational motions. Its goal to release the shot at maximum forward velocity (strength) an angle of approximately 40º (rotation). Considering adapted shot-put, those two components could be more limited in action. Therefore, present study aimed examine correlations among one-repetition (1RM) test bench p...

This lecture begins with a discussion on secret-key and public-key cryptography, and then discusses One-Way Functions (OWF), and their importance in cryptography. Essentially, an OWF is easy to compute, but difficult to invert. A One-Way Permutation (OWP) is an OWF that permutes elements from a set. A Trap-Door Permutation (TDP) is essentially an OWP with certain information, that if disclosed,...

BACKGROUND The efficacy of ad libitum low-fat diets in reducing body weight and fat in overweight and obese adults remains controversial. METHODS We examined the effect of a 12-week low-fat, high-complex carbohydrate diet alone (HI-CHO) and in combination with aerobic exercise training (HI-CHO + EX) on body weight and composition in 34 individuals with impaired glucose tolerance (20 women and...

We present the results of EVN polarization observations of fourteen GHz-Peaked-Spectrum (GPS) radio sources at 5 GHz. These sources were selected from bright GPS source samples and we aimed at finding Compact Symmetric Objects (CSOs). We have obtained full polarization 5 GHz VLBI observations of 14 sources providing information on their source structure and spectral indices. The results show th...

Introduction Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is one of the most common rheumatic disease in children. Brug of choice is methotrexate (MTX) cytostatic drug from the group of antimetabolites, folic acid antagonists. According to various authors, about 70% of patients receiving therapy with MTX are in remission for the disease. In 1988, MTX was approved FDA (Food and Drug Administration, USA) ...
