Distinct trajectories of physical activity and related factors during the life course in the general population : a systematic review
(BioMed Central, 2019)
Background: In recent years, researchers have begun applying a trajectory approach to identify homogeneous
subgroups of physical activity (PA) in heterogeneous populations. This study systematically reviewed the ...
'I saw what the future direction would be...' : Experiences of diabetes risk and physical activity after diabetes screening
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
Objectives
To improve understanding of how individuals at high risk of type 2 diabetes experience the risk of diabetes and how these experiences relate to the adoption of physical activity as a protective behaviour.
Design
A ...
Training-induced increase in Achilles tendon stiffness affects tendon strain pattern during running
(PeerJ, Ltd., 2019)
Background:
During the stance phase of running, the elasticity of the Achilles tendon enables the utilisation of elastic energy and allows beneficial contractile conditions for the triceps surae muscles. However, the ...
Health literacy as a learning outcome in schools
(Emerald Group Publishing Limited, 2012)
Purpose: The aim of this paper is to define health literacy as a learning outcome in schools, and to describe the learning conditions that are relevant for targeting health literacy.
Design/methodology/approach: The ...
Muscle free fatty-acid uptake associates to mechanical efficiency during exercise in humans
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2018)
Intrinsic factors related to muscle metabolism may explain the differences in mechanical efficiency (ME) during exercise. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between muscle metabolism and ME. Totally ...
Reliability and concurrent validity of spatiotemporal stride characteristics measured with an ankle-worn sensor among older individuals
(Elsevier, 2019)
Background. Wearable inertial sensors have been shown to provide valid mean gait characteristics assessments, however, assessment of variability is less convincingly established.
Research question. What level of concurrent ...
The effect of a movement-to-music video program on the objectively measured sedentary time and physical activity of preschool-aged children and their mothers : A randomized controlled trial
(Public Library of Science, 2017)
Regular physical activity (PA) and the avoidance of prolonged sitting are essential for children’s healthy growth, and for the physical and mental wellbeing of both children and adults. In the context of exercise, music ...
Comprehensive evaluation of coding region point mutations in microsatellite-unstable colorectal cancer
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2018)
Microsatellite instability (MSI) leads to accumulation of an excessive number of mutations in the genome, mostly small insertions and deletions. MSI colorectal cancers (CRCs), however, also contain more point mutations ...
Physical exercise increases adult hippocampal neurogenesis in male rats provided it is aerobic and sustained
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd.; Physiological Society, London, 2016)
Aerobic exercise, such as running, has positive effects on brain structure and function, such as adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN) and learning. Whether high-intensity interval training (HIT), referring to alternating ...
Promoting mobility after hip fracture (ProMo): study protocol and selected baseline results of a year-long randomized controlled trial among community-dwelling older people.
(BioMed Central, 2011)
Background: To cope at their homes, community-dwelling older people surviving a hip fracture need a sufficient amount of functional ability and mobility. There is a lack of evidence on the best practices supporting recovery ...
