Safety and Tolerability of Strength Training in Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy: A Case Report
Objective: Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy is characterized by slow-progressive muscle weakness, decreased functional performance and falls. Research into the use of exercise in spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy has shown equivocal to negative ...

Changes in muscular activity while imagining weight lifting using stimulus or response propositions [PDF]
Investigating emotional imagery, Lang (1977, 1979) proposed a dichotomy between stimulus and response propositions. In this study, Lang’s model is applied to movement images of lifting of 4.5 and 9 kg weights.

Sensorimotor memory biases weight perception during object lifting
When lifting an object, the brain uses visual cues and an internal object representation to predict its weight and scale fingertip forces accordingly. Once available, tactile information is rapidly integrated to update the weight prediction and refine ...

THE IMPACT OF FITNESS ACTIVITY ON THE MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF FEMALES [PDF]
Body building is reserved for male population. It is interesting because we are concerned with the effect of experimental treatment on muscles and fats. Fat volume is indirect relationship with obesity.

Shimura Lifts of Weakly Holomorphic Modular Forms [PDF]
We show how to realize the Shimura lift of arbitrary level and character using the vector-valued theta lifts of Borcherds. Using the regularization of Borcherds' lift we extend the Shimura lift to take weakly holomorphic modular forms of half-integral weight to meromorphic modular forms of even integral weight having poles at CM points.

Occupational lifting during pregnancy and child’s birth size in a large cohort study
OBJECTIVES: It has been suggested that the handling of heavy loads during pregnancy is associated with impaired fetal growth. We examined the association between quantity and frequency of maternal occupational lifting and the child’s size at birth ...

Potential Determinants of Manual Lifting: Validation of Ergonomic Assessment by Scoping Review Applying Meta-analysis Approach [PDF]
Introduction: Despite automation, manual load lifting is unavoidable in occupations like industry, healthcare, defence, etc. Ergonomics studies on manual lifting conducted across the globe explored few aspects of biomechanical and physiological responses.
