A Novel Multidisciplinary Approach for Reptile Movement and Behavior Analysis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We present a novel multidisciplinary approach capable of advancing research on reptiles’ behavior. Our approach uses integrated tools and methods for the digitization, reconstruction, and visualization of reptiles and their behavior. We (i) record movement through tri‐axial accelerometers, video cameras, and motion capture systems; (ii) ground‐truth ...

Examining adherence to activity monitoring devices to improve physical activity in adults with cardiovascular disease: A systematic review [PDF]

, 2019
Background Activity monitoring devices are currently being used to facilitate and monitor physical activity. No prior review has examined adherence to the use of activity monitoring devices amongst adults with cardiovascular disease.

Relationships of Cognitive Function With Subsequent Device‐Measured Physical Activity and Sedentary Time in Healthy Individuals and Those With Bipolar Disorder: Findings From the UK Biobank

Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In bipolar disorder (BD), physical inactivity and sedentary behaviour are prevalent and have been linked to BD's cognitive symptoms, although the directionality of these links is not clear. This proof‐of‐concept study examined whether cognitive function during mid‐ and later‐life was prospectively related to physical activity and ...

Physical Activity, Sleep and Sedentary Behaviour of Adults With Intellectual Disabilities, Family Caregivers and Service Providers During COVID‐19 Pandemic Recovery

British Journal of Learning Disabilities, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Guidelines outline recommended amounts of physical activity (PA), sleep and sedentary time for optimal health. Research suggests that adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) often do not meet recommendations and that engagement in healthy behaviours is impacted by those around them. The COVID‐19 pandemic amplified these concerns.

Predictors of upper‐extremity motor outcomes after constraint‐induced therapy or bimanual training in children with cerebral palsy: A systematic review

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To systematically review the factors that predict changes in upper‐extremity motor function in response to constraint‐induced movement therapy (CIMT) or bimanual training in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Method The PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, Scopus, CINAHL, and PEDro databases were searched. Studies were included if predictor variables

Assessing Child Obesity and Physical Activity in a Hard-to-Reach Population in California's Central Valley, 2012-2013. [PDF]

, 2015
IntroductionIn California's agricultural Central Valley, the rate of childhood obesity is higher than the national average. Adequate physical activity contributes to obesity prevention and its assessment is useful to evaluate the impact of interventions ...

Physical activity and meal timing alignment with chronotype and their associations with glucose metabolism: The Maastricht Study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Little is known about how the alignment between daily behaviours, such as physical activity and eating, and chronotype relates to glucose metabolism. We investigated whether alignment of physical activity and meal timing with chronotype was associated with glycaemic parameters and with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes (T2DM).

The “Reducing Inflammation for Greater Health Trial (RIGHT)” Study—Concept, Rationale, and Design

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Reducing Inflammation for Greater Health Trial's (RIGHT) study is a single‐center, randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial designed to test whether clazkizumab, an interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) inhibitor, can improve or slow decline in physical, cognitive, and vascular function in older adults, when compared to a placebo.

Joint segmentation of multivariate time series with hidden process regression for human activity recognition

, 2013
The problem of human activity recognition is central for understanding and predicting the human behavior, in particular in a prospective of assistive services to humans, such as health monitoring, well being, security, etc.
