Modificazioni posturali indotte dal canottaggio in giovani atleti ben allenati

2005

This research brings evidence that rowing represents a valid sports model for helping both healthy and paramorphic people in changing unhealthy back positions. In particular, this study analyzed the changes induced to the back of twenty well trained athletes. Furthermore, it was taken into consideration a case of an athlete who presented a case of kyphosis and lordosys. This study was carried on for a period of two years during which it was observed that both kyphosis and lordosys had disappeared in the subject observed for this study. The quantitative and qualitative variables taken into account here, demonstrate that the positive results for correcting and self-correcting the position of …

Foot and Lower Limb Clinical and Structural Changes in Overuse Injured Recreational Runners Using Floating Heel Shoes: Preliminary Results of a Rando…

2021

Foot-strike and the associated load rate are factors related to overuse injuries in runners. The purpose of this study was to analyse structural and functional changes in runners using floating heel running shoes, compared with runners using conventional footwear. A randomised control trial was conducted. Twenty runners with overuse injuries were followed over a 12-week gait retraining programme using floating heel running shoes or their conventional footwear. Pain was measured with pressure pain thresholds (PPTs), structural changes were measured with ultrasonography, and severity and impact of injury was scored on the Oslo Sports Trauma Research Centre Overuse Injury Questionnaire (OSTRC-…

Sur la réductibilité des graphes de contraintes géométriques

2017

La modélisation géométrique par contraintes dont les applications intéressent des communautés issues de divers domaines tels l'ingénierie mécanique, la conception assistée par ordinateur, le calcul symbolique ou la chimie moléculaire est maintenant intégré dans les outils standards de modélisation. Dans cette discipline une forme géométrique est spécifiée par les relations que doivent vérifier les composants de cette forme au lieu de spécifier explicitement ces composants. Le but de la résolution est de déduire la forme répondant à toutes ces contraintes. Diverses méthodes ont été proposées pour résoudre ce problème. Nous nous intéresserons spécifiquement aux méthodes dites graphiques ou ba…

High training volume is associated with increased prevalence of non-allergic asthma in competitive cross-country skiers.

2022

BackgroundCross-country skiers have a high prevalence of asthma, but its phenotypes and association with success in competitions are not known.ObjectiveTo investigate, by means of a postal survey, the relative proportions of allergic and non-allergic asthma in competitive cross-country skiers compared with the general population, to study how performance level and training volume are related to asthma and its type and to assess the possible risk factors for allergic and non-allergic asthma in competitive skiers.MethodsAll Finnish cross-country skiers enrolled in the largest national competitions in winter 2019 (n=1282), and a random sample (n=1754) of the general population of the same age …

Science education and the “state of the world”: a programme of activities to enhance teacher’s perception of global problems and possible remedies

2003

A literatura sobre formação de professores de ciências não tem tratado suficientemente a situação do mundo quanto a uma percepção global de seus graves problemas atuais. O presente artigo consiste essencialmente de um programa de atividades a ser desenvolvido com professores em formação e em exercício, que visa favorecer uma reflexão coletiva e conscientização sobre essa problemática. Nesta perspectiva é apontado um conjunto de referências e questões para um debate fundamentado sobre vários dos fatores associados à degradação da vida e sobre possíveis medidas para o enfrentamento da emergência planetária. Investigações preliminares sobre a utilização do programa proposto têm revelado result…

The Role of the Skeletal Muscle Secretome in Mediating Endurance and Resistance Training Adaptations

2021

Exercise, in the form of endurance or resistance training, leads to specific molecular and cellular adaptions not only in skeletal muscles, but also in many other organs such as the brain, liver, fat or bone. In addition to direct effects of exercise on these organs, the production and release of a plethora of different signaling molecules from skeletal muscle are a centerpiece of systemic plasticity. Most studies have so far focused on the regulation and function of such myokines in acute exercise bouts. In contrast, the secretome of long-term training adaptation remains less well understood, and the contribution of non-myokine factors, including metabolites, enzymes, microRNAs or mitochon…

Do SETA Interventions Change Security Behavior? : A Literature Review

2023

Information security education, training, and awareness (SETA) are approaches to changing end-users’ security behavior. Research into SETA has conducted interventions to study the effects of SETA on security behavior. However, we lack aggregated knowledge on ‘how do SETA interventions influence security behavior?’. This study reviews 21 empirical SETA intervention studies published across the top IS journals. The theoretical findings show that the research has extended Protection Motivation Theory by (1) enhancements to fear appeals; (2) drawing attention to relevance; (3) incorporating temporality; (4) and shifting from intentions to behavior. In terms of behavior, the SETA interventions h…

Multi-Scale Modelling of Segmentation : Effect of Music Training and Experimental Task

2016

While listening to music, people, often unwittingly, break down musical pieces into constituent chunks such as verses and choruses. Music segmentation studies have suggested that some consensus regarding boundary perception exists, despite individual differences. However, neither the effects of experimental task (i.e. realtime vs annotated segmentation), nor of musicianship on boundary perception are clear. Our study assesses musicianship effects and differences between segmentation tasks. We conducted a real-time task experiment to collect segmentations by musicians and non-musicians from 9 musical pieces; in a second experiment on non-realtime segmentation, musicians indicated boundaries …

Efficacy of the Cognitively-Based Compassion Training (CBCT®) Program for the improvement of Quality of Life and Fear of Cancer Recurrence in a sampl…

2018

Existe un vasto cuerpo de investigación que evalúa los efectos de las intervenciones psicosociales sobre la adaptación psicológica durante el tratamiento del cáncer (Antoni, 2013; Guo et al., 2013; Stanton, 2006; Stanton, Luecken, MacKinnon y Thompson, 2013). En entornos oncológicos, las intervenciones basadas en Mindfulness han demostrado su eficacia para promover el bienestar y los dominios de calidad de vida (Sinatra y Black, 2018; Zainal, Booth y Huppert, 2013), estrategias de afrontamiento constructivas frente al estrés psicosocial relacionado con la enfermedad, aliviando la ansiedad, el estrés, la fatiga, el estado de ánimo general, la alteración del sueño (Carlson et al., 2003; Carls…
