Newton, Maria | Effects of a classroom-based physical activity program on childrens physical activity levels | High levels of physical inactivity are evident among many American children. To address this problem, providing physical activity (PA) during the school day within the CSPAP framework, is one strategy to increase children's PA. Thus, the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a classroo... | | 2014-01-01 |

Friedrich, Frances; Walker, James A. | Effects of parietal injury on covert orienting of visual attention | The cognitive act of shifting attention from one place in the visual field to another can be accomplished covertly without muscular changes. The act can be viewed in terms of three internal mental operations: disengagement of attention from its current focus, moving attention to the target, and enga... | Dominance, Cerebral; Attention; Extinction, Psychological | 1984-07 |

Martin, Jim | Fourier series approximations and low pass filtering: facilitating learning of digital signal processing for biomechanics students | Filtering raw biomechanical data to remove noise is a key first step that must be performed prior to further biomechanical analysis. Raw biomechanical data are usually filtered to remove noise above a specified cutoff frequency, a process known as "low pass filtering". The concept of frequency conte... | | 2009-01-01 |

Eisenman, Patricia A. | Hormonal changes throughout the menstrual cycle and increased anterior cruciate ligament laxity in females | OBJECTIVE: To determine whether women experience significantly greater anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) laxity in conjunction with estrogen and progesterone surges during a normal 28- to 30-day menstrual cycle. DESIGN AND SETTING: Serial estrogen and progesterone levels were measured via radioimmuno... | Estrogen; Progesterone; Knee Arthrometer; Radioimmunoassay | 1999-04 |

Symons, John David | Hyperhomocysteinemia evoked by folate depletion: effects on coronary and carotid arterial function | High circulating concentrations of homocysteine (ie, hyperhomocysteinemia [Hhcy]) impair the vascular function of peripheral conduit arteries and arterioles perfusing splanchnic and skeletal muscle regions. The effects of HHcy on coronary resistance vessel function and other indexes of vascular func... | Hyperhomocysteinemia; Coronary resistance artery; Arterial stiffness; Arterial permeability; Vascular reactivity; Folate depletion; Rat | 2002 |

Newton, Maria | The influence of a simulated 'pep talk' on athlete inspiration, situational motivation, and emotion | Coaches routinely use pep talks to inspire and motivate athletes, but the efficacy of this strategy has not been empirically examined. Conceptually based on Thrash and Elliot's [3, 4] inspiration research this study explored the impact of a simulated pep talk on inspiration, inspiration to perform, ... | | 2011-01-01 |

Symons, John David | Influence of folate on arterial permeability and stiffness in the absence or presence of hyperhomocysteinemia | Elevation of plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, but the underlying mechanisms are not well understood.1 Worldwide, the most common cause of mild hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) is deficiency of folate.2,3 Some4-8 but not all9,10 studies sugg... | Cystathionine B-synthase; Carotid artery; Aorta; Cardiovascular risk factors; Folate; Hyperhomocysteinemia; Arterial permeability; Arterial stiffness | 2006 |

Reel, Justine | It was hard, but it was good: a qualitative exploration of stress-related growth in division I intercollegiate athletes | Recent research suggests that many individuals not only survive, but thrive as a result of life stress and trauma. Both scientific and anecdotal evidence support the notion of psychosocial growth and development following stress in athletes. The purpose of this study was to gain an understanding of ... | | 2012-01-01 |

Hayes, Bradley T. | Lack of neuromuscular origins of adaptation after a long-term stretching program | Context: Static stretching is commonly used during the treatment and rehabilitation of orthopedic injuries to increase joint range of motion (ROM) and muscle flexibility. Understanding the physiological adaptations that occur in the neuromuscular system as a result of long-term stretching may provid... | | 2012-01-01 |

Shaw, Janet M. | Long-term exercise using weighted vests prevents hip bone loss in postmenopausal women | Background. Bone mineral density (BMD) is a primary risk factor for hip fracture. We studied the effect of long-term weighted vest plus jumping exercise on hip BMD in postmenopausal women as a strategy for reducing hip fracture risk. Methods. Eighteen postmenopausal women (age 5 64.1 6 1.6 years a... | | 2000 |

Shultz, Barry B. | Lumbar segmental mobility disorders: comparison of two methods of defining abnormal displacement kinematics in a cohort of patients with non-specific mechanical low back pain | Background: Lumbar segmental rigidity (LSR) and lumbar segmental instability (LSI) are believed to be associated with low back pain (LBP), and identification of these disorders is believed to be useful for directing intervention choices. Previous studies have focussed on lumbar segmental rotation an... | | 2006 |

Dycus, Tiffany M; Parker, Marcus Gerald | Maintaining balance through fitness fun | The risk for falls increases dramatically with age. Approximately 25% - 35% of people over the age of 65 years experiences one or more falls each year (Shumway-Cook, 1997). The Berg Balance Test has been shown to have moderately good sensitivity, and high specificity, and therefore is a good pred... | Trapeze Interactive Poster | 2010-05-18 |

Jalili, Thunder | Mammalian target of rapamycin Is a critical regulator of cardiac hypertrophy in spontaneously hypertensive rats | Evidence exists that protein kinase C and the mammalian target of rapamycin are important regulators of cardiac hypertrophy. We examined the contribution of these signaling kinases to cardiac growth in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). Systolic blood pressure was increased (P<0.001) at 10 wee... | | 2009 |

Lohse, Keith R. | Modeling Longitudinal Outcomes: A Contrast of Two Methods | Background: Repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) is frequently used to model longitudinal data but does not appropriately account for within-person correlations over time, does not explicitly model time, and cannot flexibly handle missing data. In contrast, mixed-effects regression address... | mixed-effects regression; ANOVA; learning; development | |

Symons, John David | Na-H exchange inhibition with Cariporide limits functional impairment caused by repetitive ischemia | Intracellular calcium ([Ca]i) overload on reperfusion may be one of the mechanisms responsible for ischemia-induced regional myocardial dysfunction. Because inhibiting the Na-H exchanger (NHE) limits intracellular sodium ([Na]i) and subsequent [Ca]i accumulation, we hypothesized that NHE inhibition ... | Reperfusion; intracellular calcium; conscious pigs | 1998 |
