The effect of a pedometer-based community walking intervention "Walking for Wellbeing in the West" on physical activity levels and health outcomes : a 12-week randomized controlled trial [PDF]

, 2008
Recent systematic reviews have suggested that pedometers may be effective motivational tools to promote walking. However, studies tend to be of a relatively short duration, with small clinical based samples.

L’action située dans le développement de l’activité

Activités, 2004
After briefly attempting to describe situated action and distributed cognition, we examine their contributions from the point of view of activity theories and more specifically based on the relations between the functioning and development of activity ...

Active-meshes

Pattern Recognition Letters, 2000
Summary: This paper describes the implementation of an `active-mesh' that is to be automatically created and configured directly from a single frame of an image sequence. The aim of this approach is to use the derived mesh to perform visual tracking in unconstrained motion environments, allowing movement of the camera, the scene and even the inclusion ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Food, nutrition and sustainability education in Australian primary schools: a cross-sectional analysis of teacher perspectives and practices

Archives of Public Health
Background Healthy eating patterns from sustainable food systems are crucial for population and planetary health. Primary schools are opportune settings for teaching children about food, nutrition and sustainability (FNS) though little is known about the

On Putting the Active Back into Activism

New Formations, 2010
This paper addresses a paradox: how to engage in affirmative politics, which entails the production of social horizons of hope, while at the same time doing critical theory, which means resisting the present. Drawing on the neo-vitalism of Deleuze, with reference to Nietzsche and Spinoza, the article argues in favour of an affirmative ethics: defined ...

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Comparing perceived and objectively measured changes in physical activity and sedentary time after a 12-week Internet-based intervention

, 2015
Purpose: Evidence suggests that physical inactivity and sedentary time (ST) are independent risk factors for poor health. While there have been many successful interventions targeting these lifestyle behaviours, few studies have examined the relationship
