The effect of a failure and submaximal blood flow restriction resistance exercise protocol on changes in muscle size, strength and swelling
2016
Masteroppgave i idrettsvitenskap - Universitetet i Agder 2016 Introduction: Blood flow restricted resistance exercise (BFRRE) can induce rapid increases in muscle size, strength and swelling. No previous research has investigated the importance of conducting BFRRE to voluntary failure and few studies has been carried out to investigate associations between swelling and muscle size. Therefore, the aim of the present study was twofold (1) compare changes in muscle size and strength between a failure (FA) and submaximal (SU) BFRRE protocol (2) investigate associations between swelling and muscle size. Methods: Seventeen untrained men had their legs randomized to FA and SU protocols. The interv…
The two-loop gluino's corrections on the inclusive b ---> x(s) gamma decay in the CP violation MSSM with large tan beta
2004
We investigate two-loop gluino corrections to the effective Lagrangian for b ! s g in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model (MSSM) at large tan , including the contributions in which quark flavor change is mediated by charginos. Using the translation invariance of loop momenta and the Ward-Takahashi identities that are required by the SU3 c U1 em gauge invariance, we simplify our expressions to concise forms. As an example, we discuss two-loop gluino corrections to the CP asymmetry of inclusive B ! Xs decay in CP violating MSSM. peerReviewed
Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) in patients with major trauma and uncontrolled haemorrhagic shock: a systematic rev…
2021
AbstractBackgroundMultiple studies regarding the use of Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) in patients with non-compressible torso injuries and uncontrolled haemorrhagic shock were recently published. To date, the clinical evidence of the efficacy of REBOA is still debated. We aimed to conduct a systematic review assessing the clinical efficacy and safety of REBOA in patients with major trauma and uncontrolled haemorrhagic shock.MethodsWe systematically searched MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE and CENTRAL up to June 2020. All randomized controlled trials and observational studies that investigated the use of REBOA compared to resuscitative thoracotomy (RT) with/witho…
Urban Flood Prediction through GIS-Based Dual-Coupled Hydraulic Models
2022
Propagation of pluvial floods in urban areas, occurring with return time periods of few years, can be well solved using dual models accounting for the mutual relationship between the water level in the streets and the discharges inside the sewer pipes. The extended WEC-flood model (EWEC), based on the use of unstructured triangular meshes and a diffusive formulation of the momentum equations in both the 2D and the 1D lower domains, is presented along with its novelty, limits, and advantages. The model is then applied to a small computational domain in the Palermo area, where only some ‘hard’ data given by one rain gauge has been used for calibration and validation, along with ot…
Uncertainty analysis in sewer systems performance evaluation
2005
In recent years, in order to analyse complex urban drainage systems and to identify the most effective measures for improving their efficiency, many parameters, or indicators, have been defined and many methodologies have been proposed in order to quantify sewer systems performance in the most objective and general way. However, some uncertainty arises in these methodologies due to choices which the user has to take in applying the procedure. Thus, performance analysis results are affected by operator experience and they are mainly useful for comparison between different scenarios applied to the same system. In the present paper, a statistical analysis of sewer systems performance has been …
Female reproductive factors are associated with objectively measured physical activity in middle-aged women
2017
Physical activity improves health and may delay the onset of several chronic diseases. For women in particular, the rate of these diseases accelerates at middle age; therefore it is important to identify the determinants of health-enhancing physical activity during midlife in this population. In this study, we focused on determinants that are unique to the female sex, such as childbearing and menopause. The main objective was to characterize the level of physical activity and differences between active and inactive middle-aged Finnish women. In addition, we examined the association of physical activity with female reproductive factors at midlife. The study population consisted of 647 women …
