Changes in body composition, physical performance and cardiovascular risk factors after a 3-week integrated body weight reduction program and after 1-y follow-up in severely obese men and women.

To investigate the short- and medium-term (ie, at 1-y follow-up) effects of a hospital-based body weight reduction (BWR) program lasting 3 weeks in severely obese individuals.Longitudinal, clinical intervention study entailing energy-restricted diet, tailored aerobic-strength exercise, psychological counselling and nutritional education during a 3-week period followed by 49 weeks of indirect supervision at home.In all, 45 women and 19 men aged 30.2 +/- 7.2 y (mean +/- s.d.) with severe obesity (BMI: 41.3 +/- 4.3 kg/m(2)), classified as weight losers (finalinitial weight) and regainers (finalor =initial weight).Body composition, physical performance and cardiovascular risk factors before and…

Industrial Dynamics Involving Electrochemical Processes

Many industrial activities are based on electrochemical technologies, and several other receive from electrochemical methodologies useful or even decisive contributions for their development. There are important electrochemical industries in the fields of inorganic and organic chemical production, the treatment of metals, such as extraction, refining, finishing and processing, and the production of the various battery systems. Furthermore some electrochemical technologies are dependent on, and integrated with other industrial activities, and are related to corrosion control, water treatments, and environmental protection. Like physicians with their patients, these last applications have a p…
