How Well Can Words Capture Facial Appearance? A Cross‐Linguistic Exploration

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract When describing faces, people often struggle with verbalizing facial features. Free descriptions seem to focus predominantly on aspects of faces that are inferred, for example, psychological traits, age, attractiveness, and so on, whereas facial features themselves are often described in a limited and imprecise fashion.

Changes in motor unit conduction velocity after unilateral lower‐limb suspension and active recovery are correlated with muscle ion channel gene expression

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The effects of muscle disuse on the propagation of action potentials along motor unit (MU) muscle fibres, a key process for effective muscle activation and force generation, remain poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate changes in action potential propagation and to identify biological factors influencing these changes ...

The effect of repeated hot water immersion on microvascular function, glycaemic control and inflammation in White European and South Asian males

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Individuals of South Asian (SA) descent display a higher risk for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus than their White European (WE) counterparts. Heat therapy, such as hot water immersion (HWI), can improve microvascular function and glycaemic control, although effects across racial groups are unknown.

(Dis)agreement and concordance of metabolic indices from the oral glucose tolerance test and mixed‐meal tolerance test: Implications for application

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolic indices derived from the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and mixed‐meal tolerance test (MMTT) are often interpreted interchangeably; however, these tests represent distinct physiological stimuli. In order to examine potential differential metabolic responses to these tests, we characterized the (dis)agreement between OGTT‐ and ...
