Markers of immunosenescence and oxidative stress in healthy adults
… of oxidative stress and immunosenescence in healthy adults. The results presented represent several novel findings which support the notion that oxidative stress and infection with micro-organisms shape our biology and can accelerate aspects of ageing. Acute exercise of high intensity was …

EFFECTS OF VESTIBULAR TRAINING ON POSTURAL CONTROL OF HEALTHY ADULTS
… vestibular activation with postural training in healthy young adults. It was hypothesized that the effect of this training would significantly alter the pattern of sensory weighting by changing the ratio of visual, somatosensory and vestibular dependence needed to maintain postural stability, and …

C-Reactive Protein, Homocysteine, And Cognitive Performance In Healthy Adults
… alleles was also examined. In an exceptionally healthy aging population free of overt signs of cardiovascular disease, normal range elevations in blood levels of CRP or Hcy, either alone or in combination, were not associated with cognitive impairments in any domain. Moreover, T carriage for …

Assessment of force coordination and neuromuscular quickness in healthy adults
… LF in a variety of object manipulation tasks in healthy populations. This kinetic analysis is clinically important because the GF-LF coordination is shown to deteriorate in aging and neurologically impaired populations. Within this thesis, we explored the coordination between GF and LF and their …

An Interval Training Bout on Cognitive Performance in Healthy Adults
… regular aerobic exercise. Twenty nine apparently healthy college-aged adults were recruited and administered a high intensity interval training session with a pre- and 24 hours-post-exercise cognitive performance test. No changes were found in performance following the bout of high intensity …

Nutrient intakes of healthy adults on a gluten-free diet
… have gained popularity in recent years among healthy individuals. However, gluten-free foods are typically lower in essential nutrients. It was hypothesized that the average intakes of fiber and the selected B vitamins and minerals would be lower in the gluten-free group than in the regular …

Effect of Almond Intake on Fecal Fat Excretion in Healthy Adults
<p><strong>Background:</strong> Caloric consumption in excess leads to weight gain. Consuming nuts, in particular almonds, on a regular basis would likely increase overall caloric intake due to their high fat content, assuming complete digestion and absorption. However, multiple studies report no …

The effect of sedentary behaviour on cardiovascular biomarkers in active, healthy adults
… SB on markers of cardiovascular health in active adults. Therefore the aim of the study was to determine whether increased SB is associated with greater cardiovascular risk in an active population. Twenty-six healthy participants (aged 27.9±8 years, 16 males) were recruited and visited the …

Effect of Therapeutic Listening® Quickshift on Bilateral Coordination in Healthy Adults
… Quickshift on the bilateral coordination of healthy adults with no history of developmental or motor delays. Additional studies that demonstrate the effectiveness of the Therapeutic Listening® modality using measurable outcomes are necessary as many therapists currently use this program, even …

Gut Microbiota-Generated Trimethylamine-N-oxide and Cardiometabolic Health in Healthy Adults
… endothelial function and arterial stiffness in healthy sedentary humans. Following acute choline ingestion, significant increases in plasma TMAO (p = 0.013) and choline (p = 0.003) were evident. There was no statistically significant difference in insulin sensitivity, glucose tolerance or in any …

The Effect of Osmotic Stimulation of Copeptin on Glucose Metabolism in Healthy Adults
<p>Diabetes is currently affecting 30 million Americans. To combat disease onset, lifestyle interventions have been focused on. Low water intake, alongside elevated concentrations of circulating copeptin, has been linked to increased risk for. However, it is unknown whether this effect on glucose …

Test Re-Test Reliability of Brachial Artery Flow-Mediated Dilation in Healthy Adults
… variability in measurements of FMD in 14 healthy young adults. Methods: FMD was analyzed on three different occasions within a 21 day period for each subject after a ≥ 8 hour overnight fast. Ultrasound derived diameter of the brachial artery was measured at baseline (resting condition) and …

Effect of Monounsaturated Fat Rich Almonds on Hemostatic and Inflammatory Factors in Healthy Adults
… of inflammation and hemostatic factors in healthy adults.</p> <p>Design: This was a randomized, crossover, controlled feeding study. After a 2-week run-in period on a typical American diet (34% energy from fat), subjects were randomized to the Step I diet, low almond diet and high almond …

Investigating the effect of simulated diabetic claw toe deformity on the gait patterns of healthy adults
… single factors problematic. By simulating CTD in healthy participants, gait changes owing to the deformity may be studied in isolation by removing the influence of concomitant DM complications such as neuropathy. Findings may inform future practice by enabling clinicians to better understand the …

An investigation of automatic affective processing : behavioral correlates in schizophrenia and neural correlates in healthy adults
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-COLUMBIA AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] An important mechanism in emotional functioning is automatic affective processing. In Study 1, people with schizophrenia (n = 48) and a non-psychiatric comparison group (n = 28) completed an affective priming and …

Determinants of maximal fat oxidation during exercise in healthy adults and individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus
El metabolismo se basa en la oxidación de glucosa y grasa para producir energía para el movimiento. Durante el ejercicio, el comportamiento de la oxidación de grasa varía tanto con la intensidad como con la duración de la actividad. Esta variabilidad ha sido estudiada en relación con la tasa máxima …
