Pseudoscience and the Claim of Practical Utility: The Case of Thomas Erikson's Surrounded by Idiots
ABSTRACT It has been suggested that, by definition, pseudoscientists must assert that their theories are scientific or represent the best available knowledge. However, in business consultation and self‐help literature, pseudoscientists do not often make such strong claims. Instead, they commonly appeal to the practical utility of their theories.

Abstract The contribution of persistent inward currents (PICs) to motoneuron firing in the lower limb typically increases after a remote handgrip contraction, believed to result from diffuse serotonergic input increases in spinal cord. We investigated whether handgrip contraction intensity, duration and/or impulse would affect PIC estimates in tibialis

Exercise during 14 days of head down tilt bedrest attenuates motor unit impairments in older humans
Abstract Head‐down tilt bedrest (HDBR) models the effects of mechanical unloading on neuromuscular function. The efficacy of exercise in preserving motor unit (MU) function in older adults during HDBR remains unclear. This study investigated the effects of 14‐day HDBR on MU properties in older adults and the protective role of exercise.
