abstract back grand: early obesity and its transfer to the adult, increases likelihood incidence of coronary artery disease (cad). atp-binding cassette transporter) abca1) as a member of the abc transporters family plays a crucial role in reverse cholesterol transport and cad prevention. objective: the purpose of this study was to investigate abca1 expression in lymphocytes, plasma apolipoprote...

Rope skipping is an effective way of training. In this study, we concentrated on the rope skipping exercise of using the equipment without a rope which is called “air jump rope”. We have developed a system for recognizing the rotational motion of the rope skipping exercise. The system analyses a motion of jumping rope using the moving image processing using the IR camera of Microsoft Kinect. By...

conclusions the findings of this study proved that eight-week interval endurance rope training can have positive effects on lymphocyte abca1 protein expression (as gatekeeper of reverse cholesterol process) and lipid profiles among overweight and obese boy adolescents. objective the current study aimed to investigate abca1 expression in lymphocytes, plasma apolipoprotein a-i and hdl-c in respon...

coordination, body and limb designs are related to the environmental objects and events. the aim of this study was to investigate the necessity to implement rope jumping program in iran schools and since one of the major problems in learning how to write is eye–hand coordination, the effect of a rope jumping training course on eye–hand coordination was investigated in the fourth grade elementar...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of a 12-wk weighted-jump-rope training program on shoulder strength. DESIGN Pretest to posttest experimental design. SETTING University sports physiotherapy laboratory. PARTICIPANTS 24 healthy volleyball players age 13-16 y. INTERVENTION Group 1 took weighted-rope training (n = 9), group 2 took unweighted-rope training (n = 8), and group 3 did not tra...

Automatic visual inspection is an arising field of research. Especially in security relevant applications, an automation of the inspection process would be a great benefit. For wire ropes, a first step is the acquisition of the curved surface with several cameras located all around the rope. Because most of the visible defects in such a rope are very inconspicuous, an automatic defect detection...

Automatic visual inspection of wire ropes is an important but challenging task, as anomalies in the rope are usually unobtrusive. Certainly, a reliable anomaly detection is essential to assure the safety of the ropes. A one-class classification approach for the automatic detection of anomalies in wire ropes is presented. Furthermore, the performance of different well-established features from t...
