Children, 2021 Background: Understanding the mechanisms (mediators) of behavior change is crucial to designing more effective interventions. However, this is rarely reported.

Activity gradients in two- and three-dimensional active nematics [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 We numerically investigate how spatial variations of extensile or contractile active stress affect bulk active nematic systems in two and three dimensions. In the absence of defects, activity gradients drive flows which re-orient the nematic director field and thus act as an effective anchoring force.

Active Phase for Activated Random Walk on $\mathbb Z^2$ [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 We show that for small enough sleep rate, the critical density of the symmetric Activated Random Walk model on $\mathbb Z^2$ is strictly less than one.

Journal of Obesity & Metabolic Syndrome, 2017 Some clinical manifestations of obesity include nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Calorie restriction may aid in weight loss in the short term. Exercise and physical activity are other means of weight loss.

Central European Journal of Sport Sciences and Medicine, 2017 The aim of the present study was the evaluation of habitual physical activity in adult members of health promoting associations in compliance with selected health recommendations. Physical activity was monitored for 7 consecutive days using accelerometer

arXiv, 2023 While bacterial swarms can exhibit active turbulence in vacant spaces, they naturally inhabit crowded environments. We numerically show that driving disorderly active fluids through porous media enhances Darcy's law. While purely active flows average to zero flux, hybrid active/driven flows display greater drift than pure-driven fluids.

Obesity and physical activity [PDF]
International Journal of Obesity, 1999 Three aspects of obesity and physical activity are reviewed: whether the obese are inactive; how the activity level can be increased; and which are the effects of an increase in physical activity in combination with a reduction of energy intake.The focus is on an objective approach that is, activity associated energy expenditure as measured with doubly

Associations between dietary patterns and blood pressure in a sample of Australian adults
Nutrition Journal, 2020 Background Investigating effects of whole diets on blood pressure (BP) can contribute to development of diet-based recommendations for health. Our aim was to assess the relationship between dietary patterns and BP in a sample of free-living Australian ...

The effect of sleep deprivation on postural stability among physically active young adults
Scientific Reports, 2023 The study aimed to evaluate the effect of sleep deprivation on postural stability among physically active young adults. The study involved 22 physical education students. Average velocities and spatial distribution of the center of pressure displacements
