Can Graduated Compressive Stockings Reduce Muscle Activity During Running?
2017
Purpose: Graduated compressive stockings (GCS) have been suggested to influence performance by reducing muscle oscillations and improving muscle function and efficiency. However, no study to date has analyzed the influence of GCS on muscle activity during running. The objective of the study was to analyze the influence of GCS on the perception of comfort and muscle activation of the main muscles of the lower leg during running. Method: Thirty-six participants ran on a treadmill with (GCS) or without (control) GCS. The running tests consisted of a 10-min warm-up followed by a 20-min intense run at 75% of the athlete’s maximal aerobic speed. Surface electromyography of the tibialis anterior, …
Estimation of energy consumed by middle-aged recreational marathoners during a marathon using accelerometry-based devices
2020
AbstractAs long-distance races have substantially increased in popularity over the last few years, the improvement of training programs has become a matter of concern to runners, coaches and health professionals. Triaxial accelerometers have been proposed as a one of the most accurate tools to evaluate physical activity during free-living conditions. In this study, eighty-eight recreational marathon runners, aged 30–45 years, completed a marathon wearing a GENEActiv accelerometer on their non-dominant wrist. Energy consumed by each runner during the marathon was estimated based on both running speed and accelerometer output data, by applying the previously established GENEActiv cut-points f…
Multicomponent Physical Exercise Training in Multimorbid and Palliative Oldest Adults
2021
Exercise counteracts aging and pathology symptoms, but there is still scarce research on exercise programs for multimorbid and/or palliative old patients (MPO-Ps). In order to analyze whether the multicomponent physical–cognitive training is beneficial for this population, 17 MPO-Ps (81.59 ± 5.63 years) completed a >
Effects of functional resistance training on fitness and quality of life in females with chronic nonspecific low-back pain.
2018
BACKGROUND: Exercise is important as adjuvant in the chronic low back pain (CLBP) treatment. Functional training could involve benefits for low back pain (LBP) patients. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of a 12-week period of functional resistance training on health-related quality of life (HRQOL), disability, body pain, and physical fitness in CLBP females. METHODS: Nineteen females CLBP were recruited according to Paris Task Force on Back Pain criteria. Participants were randomly assigned to an exercise group (EG); and a control group (CG). Subjects were tested at baseline and at week 12 after 24 sessions, 2 days per week. Body pain was assessed using visual analog scale (VAS), disabili…
Mixed methods analysis of Health-Related Quality of Life in ambulant individuals affected with RYR1-related myopathies pre-post-N-acetylcysteine ther…
2020
Purpose: To characterize Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in ambulant individuals with RYR1-RM and to determine if a qualitative PRO tool (subjective self-assessment) complements PROMIS and Neuro-QoL scales to detect changes in HRQoL in ambulant individuals with RYR1-RM post N-acetylcysteine (NAC) treatment. Methods: The study used a mixed methods research (MMR) design applying methodological triangulation. Qualitative data were collected via semi-structured interviews using open-ended questions. Quantitative data were gathered through PROMIS and Neuro-QoL instruments. Additionally, qualitative data were transformed into quantitative data for subjective self-assessment and frequency a…
Water and Flood Adaptation Education: from Theory to Practice
2021
The risk of flooding is the main natural hazard that affects the European region. This hazard has worsened in the recent decades due to the urban occupation of flood areas and the effects of climate change. Therefore, in Spain, interest in this subject is accentuated in the case of future teachers because this issue is mandatory to teach in primary education (grades 1–6; social sciences subject). The aims of this research are to explore the instruction about flooding received by future teachers during their school and university period and propose the instruction curricular activities to do in classroom (primary education). Methodologically, a questionnaire was distributed among future teac…
Una exposición sobre el mundo de los sentidos como contexto no formal de aprendizaje y alfabetización científica
2005
El proyecto que aquí describimos ha consistido en el diseño y elaboración de una exposición didáctica sobre el mundo de los sentidos, así como de unos cuadernos de actividades complementarias para el alumnado y una guía didáctica para el profesorado.
Uso de los museos para contribuir a superar visiones deformadas de la ciencia
2017
El trabajo se centra en la aportación de la educación no reglada, y más concretamente de los museos de ciencia y tecnología, al proceso de alfabetización científica. La enseñanza de las ciencias no facilita, en general, la familiarización de los estudiantes con las estrategias propias del trabajo científico. Y lo mismo sucede con la educación científica proporcionada por museos, medios de difusión, etc. Por ello las concepciones de los estudiantes y de la ciudadanía sobre la naturaleza de la ciencia y la actividad científica muestran, habitualmente, graves deformaciones que no solo dificultan un aprendizaje significativo sino que provocan el desinterés y rechazo hacia los estudios tecnocien…
La atención de la prensa a la situación de emergencia planetaria.
2007
Esta investigación pretende ser una respuesta a los llamamientos de organismosinternacionales, muy en particular de Naciones Unidas a través de la Década de laEducación para un Futuro Sostenible (2005-2014), a los educadores de cualquier área ynivel, incluyendo a los responsables de la educación "no reglada", para que la educaciónpreste una especial atención a la preparación de los ciudadanos para hacer frente a lasituación de emergencia planetaria.En particular nos hemos centrado en estudiar el papel de la prensa en la preparación deuna ciudadanía responsable frente a la crisis planetaria, ya que su fácil difusión ymanejo la convierten en instrumento formativo potencialmente privilegiado. …
Competence analysis of an open modelling task
2015
[ES] Según diversos autores, las actividades dirigidas al desarrollo conjunto de las competencias matemáticas deben relacionarse con la realidad y los procesos de modelización matemática. El objetivo del presente trabajo es describir, a partir de la producción de un grupo de alumnos de tercer curso de ESO, las competencias que los alumnos han de poner en juego para resolver una tarea genuina y completa de modelización y que formarían parte de la propia competencia en Modelización.
