Metabolic Flexibility and Mechanical Efficiency in Women Over-60
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Purpose: Aging deteriorates metabolic flexibility (MF). Moreover, recent studies show that glycolysis is barely increased despite impoverished lipid metabolism, in addition to increased relevance of muscle power in older adults.

Contagion and Efficiency in Gross and Net Interbank Payment Systems [PDF]
Journal of Financial Intermediation, 1998 Abstract The impressive growth in the value of daily interbank payments1 has raised concerns about the potential systemic risk induced by contagion. This effect, also known as the domino effect, occurs if the failure of a large financial institution to settle payment obligations triggers a chain reaction that threatens the stability ...

The effect of ambient temperature on gross-efficiency in cycling
European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2007 Time-trial performance deteriorates in the heat. This might potentially be the result of a temperature-induced decrease in gross-efficiency (GE). The effect of high ambient temperature on GE during cycling will be studied, with the intent of determining if a heat-induced change in GE could account for the performance decrements in time trial exercise ...

International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance, 2019 BACKGROUND Cycling competitions are often of long duration and include repeated high-intensity efforts. PURPOSE To investigate the effect of repeated maximal sprints during 4 hours of low-intensity cycling on gross efficiency (GE), electromyography ...

Simulation of Gross Primary Productivity Using Multiple Light Use Efficiency Models
Land, 2021 Gross primary productivity (GPP) is the most basic variable in a carbon cycle study that determines the carbon that enters the ecosystem. The remote sensing-based light use efficiency (LUE) model is one of the primary tools that is currently used to ...
