Post Activation Potentiation Is Greater in Human Triceps Brachii Versus Triceps Surae Muscles
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Voluntary muscle contractions result in a temporary increase in twitch force, a phenomenon termed post activation potentiation (PAP). In rodents and other species, PAP is observed predominantly or exclusively in fast twitch muscles. However, it has been suggested that in humans, PAP occurs more or less independently of muscle

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims The association between low forced vital capacity (FVC) and cognitive impairment in ALS is ambiguous; it could be due to respiratory dysfunction and/or poor effort from cognitive deficits. We used the objective, non‐volitional phrenic nerve motor response amplitude (PAmp) to clarify how cognitive status affects the ...

The Epistemic Generativity of Using a Model of a Big Idea
ABSTRACT Science instruction should involve learners in generating and warranting ideas, what we call epistemic generation. In modeling instruction, epistemic generation should be achieved by coordinating a model structure with the experienced world in reciprocal directions denoted as developing models and using models. In the former, a model structure
