ABSTRACT Objective Examine associations between neighbourhood characteristics and health behaviours (physical activity, screen time, sleep duration) in boys and girls initiating obesity management care across Canada. Methods We analysed cross‐sectional data from the CANadian Paediatric Weight management Registry (2013–2017) for 803 participants (with ...

The ecology of feral cats (Felis catus) on a New Zealand offshore island : considerations for management : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Pholosophy in Zoology at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand [PDF]
Invasive species have contributed to the global biodiversity crisis, with the majority of recentday terrestrial vertebrate extinctions implicating invasive predators. Domestic cats (Felis catus), particularly feral cats, are among the main culprits. In

ABSTRACT While daytime napping could support recovery in athletes, poorly timed or prolonged naps may interfere with nighttime sleep. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the effect of two different, well‐timed nap opportunity durations, 25 and 90 min, on subsequent objectively measured nighttime sleep in student athletes.

ABSTRACT Children's ambulatory sleep is commonly measured via actigraphy. However, traditional actigraphy measured sleep (e.g., Sadeh algorithm) struggles to predict wake (i.e., specificity, values typically < 70) and cannot predict sleep stages. Long short‐term memory (LSTM) is a machine learning algorithm that may address these deficiencies.

ABSTRACT Sleep, sedentary behaviour, and physical activity (PA) are important for brain health. Spending more time in one behaviour always substitutes time in another, which may affect associations and should be considered in prevention strategies. We assessed how substitutions of sleep, sedentary behaviour, and PA are associated with incident dementia

The graphical abstract illustrates the association between physical activity levels and cellular health in adolescents living with HIV (ALHIV). Cellular health was assessed using phase angle (PhA), derived from bioelectrical impedance analysis, a marker of cell membrane integrity and body cell mass.
