Background: In the military context, high levels of physiological and psychological stress together can compromise individual&rsquo
The effects of a 10-week combined strength and endurance training intervention followed by cold water immersion or active recovery
2017
Combined strength and endurance training has been noted to produce significant improvements in strength and endurance performances of men. However, there seems to be moderate inhibitory effect regarding strength adaptations, especially considering power production. The effects of training have been well documented over the years yet very little has been investigated about recovery, even though athletes spend more of their time recovering than they do training. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of a 10-week combined strength and endurance training period on muscular performance and 3km time-trial in males with each training session followed by cold water immersion (CWI) or …
Exploring Culture in and of the Cold War
2018
The Cold War used to be portrayed as a global struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union. Even if this image has been challenged many times, the main images that come to mind when speaking of the Cold War, are often linked to superpower rivalry between the Soviet Union and the United States, the threat of a military conflict, and nuclear armament. These images have proved tenacious regardless of scholarship underlining cooperation across apparent ideological division and cross-border interaction instead of hostility. One of the key weaknesses is that many areas still lack empirical research that would fill in the gaps and provide material to allow us to re-evaluate the extent a…
Vesiupotusmenetelmien vaikutus fyysisestä kuormituksesta palautumiseen miehillä
2017
Johdanto. Palautuminen on tärkeää erityisesti urheilijoiden harjoittelun ja kilpailujen yhteydessä. Sitä tapahtuu harjoituksen tai kilpailun aikana, välittömästi harjoituksen tai kilpailun jälkeen ja pitkäkestoisena harjoitusten ja kilpailujen välillä. Erilaisia palautumismenetelmiä on lukuisia ja niistä tärkeimpiä ovat aktiiviset menetelmät kuten kevyt aerobinen kuormitus sekä liikkuvuusharjoitukset. Passiivisia menetelmiä ovat uni, ravinto (nesteytys), hieronta, fysioterapia, painemenetelmät, lämpömenetelmät ja kylmäkäsittely. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoitus oli selvittää aktiivisen palautumisen jälkeen suoritettujen eri vesiupotusmenetelmien sekä pelkän aktiivisen palautumisen vaikutusta fyy…
Fatty Acids and Triacylglycerols Profiles from Sicilian (Cold Pressed vs. Soxhlet) Grape Seed Oils
2021
Among the Sicilian economic productive sectors, that of wine production has today a considerable economic value. However, with the growth of this sector, notable was the increase in the production of waste, which to date is not only an economic damage for companies, but also a threat to the environment. It is known that waste from wine production has properties (e.g., antioxidants) which have potential reuse at cosmetic, pharmaceutical and nutritional levels to obtain economically sustainable applications. A new goal is given by the recovery of added value compounds from agri-food wastes and by-products. Grape seed oil is a promising vegetable fat and cold pressing does not involve the use …
Effects of Packaging on Shelf-Life and Quality of Minimally Processed Fennel
2011
Fennel is not a widespread product among minimally processed vegetables, due to the fast deterioration mainly caused by browning of the cut surfaces, even during cold storage. In order to extend the shelf-life of fresh-cut fennel, the influence of different packaging techniques was studied. Sliced fennel, dipped in citric acid solution (0.5 %), was placed in polystyrene trays, sealed with PE film or vacuum packaged in PE bags and stored up to 14 days at 4°C. During this period weight loss, soluble solid content, pH, color and firmness were evaluated. Minimally processed fennel packed in sealed trays and coldstored at 4°C, extended its shelf life to 14 days maintaining acceptable quality. Fe…

Mur berliński jako granica i linia frontu w czasach zimnej wojny
2018
Celem artykułu jest prezentacja okoliczności budowy, a następnie funkcji pełnionych w czasach zimnej wojny przez mur berliński. Mur został wzniesiony w 1961 r. i stanowił efekt kulminacji konfliktu między ZSRR i aliantami zachodnimi. Władzom w NRD zależało na jego budowie, aby zatrzymać emigrację ludności z Niemiec Wschodnich do Berlina Zachodniego, a następnie do RFN. Po 2015 r. na granicach wielu państw europejskich także budowane są mury, mające uniemożliwić wjazd imigrantów, szczególnie nielegalnych. W tym kontekście warto przyjrzeć się funkcjom pełnionym przez mur berliński, w tym funkcji: politycznej, strategicznej, ekonomicznej, społecznej, symbolicznej i kulturotwórczej. Na podstawi…
Review of Particle Physics
2020
The Review summarizes much of particle physics and cosmology. Using data from previous editions, plus 2,143 new measurements from 709 papers, we list, evaluate, and average measured properties of gauge bosons and the recently discovered Higgs boson, leptons, quarks, mesons, and baryons. We summarize searches for hypothetical particles such as supersymmetric particles, heavy bosons, axions, dark photons, etc. Particle properties and search limits are listed in Summary Tables. We give numerous tables, figures, formulae, and reviews of topics such as Higgs Boson Physics, Supersymmetry, Grand Unified Theories, Neutrino Mixing, Dark Energy, Dark Matter, Cosmology, Particle Detectors, Colliders, …
