High intensity intermittent games-based activity and adolescents’ cognition: moderating effect of physical fitness

BMC Public Health, 2018
Background An acute bout of exercise elicits a beneficial effect on subsequent cognitive function in adolescents. The effect of games-based activity, an ecologically valid and attractive exercise model for young people, remains unknown; as does the ...

Efficient shape matching using shape contexts [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 2005
We demonstrate that shape contexts can be used to quickly prune a search for similar shapes. We present two algorithms for rapid shape retrieval: representative shape contexts, performing comparisons based on a small number of shape contexts, and shapemes, using vector quantization in the space of shape contexts to obtain prototypical shape pieces.

On Heteropolymer Shape Dynamics

, 1992
We investigate the time evolution of the heteropolymer model introduced by Iori, Marinari and Parisi to describe some of the features of protein folding mechanisms. We study how the (folded) shape of the chain evolves in time.

The MedSupport Multilevel Intervention to Enhance Support for Pediatric Medication Adherence: Development and Feasibility Testing

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction We developed MedSupport, a multilevel medication adherence intervention designed to address root barriers to medication adherence. This study sought to explore the feasibility and acceptability of the MedSupport intervention strategies to support a future full‐scale randomized controlled trial.

Characterising the activity, lifestyle behaviours and health outcomes of UK university students: an observational cohort study with a focus on gender and ethnicity

BMC Public Health
Background Health-related outcomes and behaviours in university students are known to be poor relative to the general population. The substantial contextual shifts related to the COVID-19 pandemic, combined with increased numbers of students from ...

Unfolding Shape Graphs [PDF]

, 2006
Shape graphs have been introduced in [Ren04a, Ren04b] as an abstraction to be used in model checking object oriented software, where states of the system are represented as graphs.

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Pediatric, Adolescent, and Young Adult Patients With Osteosarcoma: Local Control Outcomes With Dosimetric Analysis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Osteosarcoma is a radioresistant tumor that may benefit from stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for locoregional control in metastatic/recurrent disease. We report institutional practice patterns, outcomes, toxicity, and failures in osteosarcoma patients treated with SBRT.

The reproducibility of dendritic cell and T cell counts to a 30‐min high‐intensity cycling protocol as a tool to highlight overtraining

Experimental Physiology
Heavy training has been reported to be immunosuppressive in athletes and lead to blunted cortisol responses to exercise. Cortisol elevates the number of dendritic cells (DCs), key antigen‐presenting cells that interact with T cells to initiate an immune ...

Anisotropic response in mechanical and corrosion performances of UNS S31803 duplex stainless steel fabricated by laser powder bed fusion

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
Mechanical and corrosion behaviors perpendicular to build direction (XOY) and along build direction (XOZ) of UNS S31803 duplex stainless steel (DSS) fabricated by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) were investigated.

Shape of Deconstruction

, 2003
We construct a six-dimensional Maxwell theory using a latticized extra space, the continuum limit of which is a shifted torus recently discussed by Dienes.
