Does Christian Spirituality Enhance Psychological Interventions on Forgiveness, Gratitude, and the Meaning of Life? A Quasi-Experimental Intervention…

2020

Scientific research has provided theoretical evidence on the implementation of religious/spiritual interventions (RSI) as a complementary health therapy, where spiritual improvements are also a factor to consider. Despite the above, there are few studies that have evaluated the clinical applicability of these findings. This study was an intervention with older and younger adults divided into two treatment groups and one control group. What is expected is that the two treatment groups will score better than the control group

Modelización de la función de covarianza en procesos espacio-temporales : análisis y aplicaciones

2008

Desde sus orígenes durante la segunda mitad del siglo XX hasta la actualidad ha quedado suficientemente demostrada la validez de las técnicas geoestadísticas para el estudio de todo tipo de procesos naturales que se manifiestan sobre localizaciones espaciales. Durante los últimos años del siglo pasado y principios de este se observa en la literatura especializada una creciente demanda de técnicas estadísticas espacio-temporales que generalicen los procedimientos meramente espaciales para fenómenos espaciales de los que se conoce su evolución temporal. Es especialmente reseñable las numerosas aportaciones realizadas por los investigadores para la construcción de funciones de covarianza espac…

Impact of gadolinium on the structure and magnetic properties of nanocrystalline powders of iron oxides produced by the extraction-pyrolytic method

2020

The work has been done in frame of the TransFerr project. It has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No. 778070. This research was also supported by Latvian Research Council project lzp-2018/1-0214. A.I.P. appreciates support from the Estonian Research Council grant (PUT PRG619).

Frequency-dependent selection in human immunodeficiency virus type 1.

2001

Genetic variation is the main evolutionary strategy adopted by RNA viruses and retroviruses. Evolution operates through competition between different individuals in the same environment, resulting in the imposition of the fittest variant. The process of competition could be affected by various factors, including the frequency of the different competing individuals. In order to investigate this aspect, individual virus populations derived from a human immunodeficiency virus type 1 isolate were studied at different competing proportions. The dynamics of variant imposition in each competition experiment permitted the detection of frequency-dependent selection (FDS); i.e. the imposition of vari…

Predictor variables for a half marathon race time in recreational male runners

Eighty-four male finishers in the ‘Half Marathon Basel’ completed the race distance within (me…

Copenhagen consensus statement 2019: physical activity and ageing

2019

From 19th to 22nd November 2018, 26 researchers representing nine countries and a variety of academic disciplines met in Snekkersten, Denmark, to reach evidence-based consensus about physical activity and older adults. It was recognised that the term ‘older adults’ represents a highly heterogeneous population. It encompasses those that remain highly active and healthy throughout the life-course with a high intrinsic capacity to the very old and frail with low intrinsic capacity. The consensus is drawn from a wide range of research methodologies within epidemiology, medicine, physiology, neuroscience, psychology and sociology, recognising the strength and limitations of each of the methods. …

Physical exercise in the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease

2020

Highlights • Low levels of physical activity are a risk factor associated with Alzheimer's disease. • Older adults who exercise are more likely to maintain cognition. • Exercise modulates amyloid β turnover, inflammation, synthesis, and release of neurotrophins, and cerebral blood flow.

Estimation of aerobic fitness among young men without exercise test

2015

Summary Study aim: to develop and estimate the validity of non-exercise methods to predict VO2max among young male conscripts entering military service in order to divide them into the different physical training groups. Material and methods: fifty males (age 19.7 ± 0.3 years) reported their physical activity before military service by IPAQ and SIVAQ questionnaires. Furthermore, Jackson’s non-exercise method was used to estimate VO2max. Body mass and height were measured, body mass index calculated and VO2max measured directly in a maximal treadmill test. Subjects were randomly divided into two groups. The results of the Group 1 (N = 25) were used to develop a regression equation to estimat…

Physical activity, fitness, and all-cause mortality: An 18-year follow-up among old people

2016

Background: Little is known about change in physical activity (PA) and its relationship to all-cause mortality among old people. There is even less information about the association between PA, fitness, and all-cause mortality among people aged 80 years and above. The objective is to investigate persistence and change in PA over 5 years as a predictor of all-cause mortality, and fitness as a mediator of this association, among people aged 80 and 85 years at the beginning of an 18-year mortality follow-up period. Methods: Using Evergreen Project data (started in 1989), 4 study groups were formed according to self-reported changes in PA level, over a 5-year period (starting in 1989–1990 and e…
