Integration: The Key to Sustaining Kinesiology in Higher Education [PDF]

Quest, 2007
Integration is the key to sustaining kinesiology as an academic and professional discipline in higher education. Following the vision of Amy Morris Homans, this paper focuses on integration in three ways. First, integration of our multidisciplinary scholarship, with a clear focus on physical activity, is essential to sustaining kinesiology as a unique ...

All Is Relative—A Call for Considering “Physiologically Informed” Control Conditions to Improve the Mechanistic Understanding of the Effects of Physical Exercise on Cognition

Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is a growing interest in elucidating the mechanisms that drive the benefits of physical exercise on cognitive performance. A key element for a better understanding of a particular phenomenon (e.g., the mediators of the exercise‐cognition interaction) is the selection of an appropriate control condition/group as the basis for causal ...

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

School 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.

Turning over new ideas in human skeletal muscle proteostasis: What do we know and where to from here?

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the turnover of proteins in tissues gives information as to how external stimuli result in phenotypic change. Nowhere is such phenotypic change more conspicuous than skeletal muscle, which can be effectively remodelled by increased loading, ageing and unloading (disuse), all of which are subject to modification by nutrition and ...

The effect of body position on cardiovascular, skeletal muscle and ventilatory responses to submaximal cycling

Experimental Physiology
The completion of exercise in different body positions can impact the function of various components of the oxygen delivery pathway; however, the effect of the haemodynamic conditions induced by a semi‐upright body position on the integrative ...

Individuals with persisting post‐concussion symptoms with physiological subtype demonstrate altered cardiovascular and autonomic responses to face cooling

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Individuals with persisting post‐concussion symptoms with physiological subtype (PPCS‐P) demonstrate exercise intolerance due to exacerbation of concussion‐like symptoms during incremental exercise. We tested the hypothesis that individuals with PPCS‐P (n = 12) would have a blunted cardiac autonomic response to face cooling compared to healthy

Minutes that matter: time-efficient high-intensity interval training improves cardiac function with transcriptomic evidence in post–myocardial infarction mice

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) improves cardiovascular performance, but the mechanisms remain incompletely delineated. We investigated whether HIIT improves left-ventricular (LV) remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI) in adult mice. Animals

Impaired Windkessel function and proximal aortic stiffness: Linking vascular ageing to cognitive decline

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Central arterial stiffening, particularly of the proximal aorta, is increasingly recognised as a pivotal contributor to cardiovascular disease, dementia, and mild cognitive impairment. Loss of Windkessel function amplifies pulsatile pressure, reduces diastolic perfusion and accelerates microvascular damage in the brain.

Higher whole‐body and exogenous postprandial glucose oxidation in the luteal versus follicular phase in healthy females

Physiological Reports
Menstrual cycle phase can influence indices of carbohydrate metabolism at rest and during exercise; however, limited research has explored whether there are menstrual phase‐specific differences in substrate metabolism in response to oral feeding. Using a
