The pedal line of a triangle and theorems connected with it [PDF]
Proceedings of the Edinburgh Mathematical Society, 1890 Most of the following theorems occur in a more or less explicit form in text-books on the geometry of the parabola; but it will not, I hope, be without interest and value to consider them independently, and to prove them by using only the propositions of Euclid.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Older adults with reduced thermoregulatory capabilities are increasingly at risk of heat‐related pathophysiological outcomes (e.g., acute kidney injury, heatstroke) due to increasingly frequent, prolonged and intense heatwaves. Foot immersion and neck cooling have been proposed as practical, non‐electrical cooling strategies for protecting ...

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Exercise training is recommended for individuals with hypertension because it has been shown to lower blood pressure and reverse left ventricular concentric remodelling and mass. However, it is unclear how hypertensive individuals respond in comparison to normotensive individuals and to what extent medical treatment affects the outcome of ...

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Aerobic exercise testing helps facilitate recovery post‐concussion. Current protocols (Calgary Concussion Cycling Test: CCCT) are inaccessible for athletes with lower‐body impairments (i.e. Para athletes). This study compared physiological parameters for a novel arm crank test, the Calgary Adapted aRm Ergometer (CARE) test, with the CCCT ...

Smart driving assistance systems : designing and evaluating ecological and conventional displays [PDF]
, 2013 In-vehicle information systems have been shown to increase driver workload and cause distraction; both are causal factors for accidents. This simulator study evaluates the impact that two designs for a smart driving aid and scenario complexity has on ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Sprint interval training (SIT) is a popular time‐efficient type of endurance training. Healthy young men performed nine SIT sessions (4–6 × 30 s all‐out cycling sprints) over 3 weeks while being supplemented with antioxidants (high doses of vitamins C and E) or placebo. Muscle biopsies taken before and after the first SIT session

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Exacerbated ATP signalling in the carotid body (CB) of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) arises from expansion of the chemosensory glomus cell compartment and reduced extracellular ATP metabolism, leading to increased purinergic drive.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend The results from this study show that maximal cardiac output, stroke volume and leg blood flow are similar between highly trained females and males after normalisation to lean body mass (LBM). However, the 10% higher haemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) and arterial O2 content in males result in higher systemic and leg O2 delivery ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Propionate in the fetal circulation is thought to originate from fermentation of dietary fibre by the maternal gut microbiota. However, the mechanism of transplacental transport has remained unclear. Here, we measured propionate permeability using a placental barrier model generated by differentiating human placental trophoblast ...
