Self-Declared Physical Activity Levels and Self-Reported Physical Fitness in a Sample of Italian Adolescents during the COVID-19 Pandemic

European Journal of Investigation in Health, Psychology and Education, 2022
Only 20% of children worldwide reach the suggested physical activity (PA) levels, and the COVID-19 restrictions seemed to have worsened this situation.

Active mechanical threading by a molecular motor [PDF]

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2021
Molecular motors transform external energy input into directional motions and offer exquisite precision for nano-scale manipulations. In order to make full use of molecular motor capacities, their directional motions need to be transmitted and used for powering downstream molecular events – a current great challenge for molecular engineers.

The Role of Crowd Support on Home Advantage during COVID-19 Restrictions on Italian Football Competitions. Comparison between 2018–19 and 2020–21 Seasons of the Italian Serie A and Serie B Championships

Sports, 2022
The home advantage (HA) affects football competitions, especially due to the presence of crowd support. Even though several studies demonstrated that HA (which is influenced by the crowd) decreased in recent years, the empty stadia caused by COVID-19 ...

Motor Activity Improves Temporal Expectancy [PDF]

PLOS ONE, 2015
Certain brain areas involved in interval timing are also important in motor activity. This raises the possibility that motor activity might influence interval timing. To test this hypothesis, we assessed interval timing in healthy adults following different types of training.

Relationship Between the Practice of Physical Activity and Physical Fitness in Physical Education Students: The Integrated Regulation As a Mediating Variable

Frontiers in Psychology, 2020
The practice of physical activity (PA) contributes to the prevention of chronic diseases such as obesity, metabolic syndrome or cardiovascular diseases, being also directly related to the individual’s physical fitness.

Acute Effects of Self-Correction on Spine Deviation and Balance in Adolescent Girls with Idiopathic Scoliosis

Sensors, 2022
Background: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional deformity of spine and trunk with a higher incidence in girls. AIS alters and reduces postural control and balance.

Speed agility trends in children according to growth: A new approach to evaluate speed agility in children

Annals of Human Biology, 2021
Background Speed agility is considered as the whole assessment of speed of movement, agility and coordination. The 10x4m test has been broadly used to evaluate physical fitness and overall health in children of developmental ages.

Explosive Strength Modeling in Children: Trends According to Growth and Prediction Equation

Applied Sciences, 2020
Lower limb explosive strength has been widely used to evaluate physical fitness and general health in children. A plethora of studies have scoped the practicality of the standing broad jump (SBJ), though without accounting for body dimensions, which are ...

Emergence of Motor Circuit Activity

PLoS ONE, 2014
In the developing nervous system, ordered neuronal activity patterns can occur even in the absence of sensory input and to investigate how these arise, we have used the model system of the embryonic chicken spinal motor circuit, focusing on motor neurons of the lateral motor column (LMC).
