The Predictive Influence of Concept Maps, Prior Knowledge, and Motivational Variables on Chemistry Learning Outcomes

open access: yesSchool Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extensive research has demonstrated the effectiveness of concept maps in fostering students' conceptual understanding. However, less is known about how cognitive and motivational variables interact to influence chemistry learning outcomes in ecologically valid settings.

Dried plasma retains hemostatic function and thermal stability during Arctic military operations

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dried plasma offers a practical alternative for remote damage control resuscitation, providing hemostatic support and volume replacement. The Arctic presents challenges that necessitate the need for blood‐based resuscitation to extend the “golden hour.” To address this, we evaluated the hemostatic and thermal stability of dried ...

Resistance exercise breaks during prolonged sitting augment the blood flow response to a subsequent oral glucose load in sedentary adults

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sitting‐induced impairments in postprandial blood flow are an important link between sedentary behaviour and cardiometabolic disease risk. The objective of this work was to examine the effects of resistance exercise breaks (REB) performed every 30 min during an otherwise sedentary 3‐h period on the vasodilatory response to a subsequent oral ...

Reconsidering and Re-Conceptualizing Kinesiology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The purpose of this article is to delineate a more humanistic view of kinesiology by drawing on the rich, but often overlooked, phenomenology of movement literature (Arnold, 1979; Brown & Payne, 2009; Merleau-Ponty, 1962). Brown and Payne (2009) maintain

Spaceflight and sport science: Physiological monitoring and countermeasures for the astronaut–athlete on Mars exploration missions

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight impacts essentially every system in the human body, resulting in multisystem deconditioning that might impair the health and performance of crewmembers, particularly on long‐duration exploration missions to Mars. In this review, we apply the sport science model of athlete monitoring, testing and training to astronauts;

The Influence of CrossFit Training on Running Mechanics

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction 40 million Americans run regularly.1 Contrary to many runner’s beliefs, increased strength may be beneficial while not adding body mass. An increase in strength in specific muscles may improve running gait and performance.

Feasibility of superimposed supine cycling and lower body negative pressure as an effective means of prolonging exercise tolerance in individuals experiencing persisting post‐concussive symptoms: Preliminary results

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract To examine the feasibility, utility and safety of superimposed lower body negative pressure (LBNP) and tilt during supine cycling in individuals suffering from persisting post‐concussive symptoms (PPCS). Eleven individuals aged 17–31 (6 females/5 males) participated in two randomized separate visits, 1 week apart.

The Effect of a Barefoot Training Program on Running Economy and Performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Barefoot (BF) running has developed into a recent training technique for elite and sub-elite endurance runners. BF running is a recent type of training that may improve a runner’s Running Economy (RE) and, ultimately performance, by allowing for an ...

Kinesiology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The aim of every science is to determine laws (Momirović, 1968). Kinesiology has at its disposal the instruments for gathering and analyzing pieces of information and data obtained through research. As a scientific study which deals with governing exercise processes, it includes elements of a system that controls and a system being controlled, as well ...

Impact of obesity and an obesogenic environment on cardiotoxin‐induced damage and recovery of human myotubes

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) reduces skeletal muscle quality and impairs the myogenic response to muscle damage. The present study investigated if differences exist in myotubes from individuals with (OB) or without (LN) obesity incubated in control (bovine serum albumin [BSA]) or obesogenic (Ob) medium, at baseline or in response to cardiotoxin ...
