Lower Mitochondrial Energy Production of the Thigh Muscles in Patients With Low‐Normal Ankle‐Brachial Index

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundLower muscle mitochondrial energy production may contribute to impaired walking endurance in patients with peripheral arterial disease. A borderline ankle‐brachial index (ABI) of 0.91 to 1.10 is associated with poorer walking endurance compared

Patterns of physical activity in hunter-gatherer children compared with US and UK children

Scientific Reports
Contemporary hunter-gatherers are highly active, but little is known about physical activity levels in hunter-gatherer children. We analysed 150 days of accelerometer data from 51 BaYaka hunter-gatherer children (aged 3–18) in the Republic of Congo ...
