It is not well known whether physical activity (PA) useful in the management of patients complaining constipation. The aim this study was to test influence regular PA on colonic transit time and defecation middle-aged inactive suffering from chronic idiopathic constipation.Forty-three subjects (> 45 years) were randomly divided into group A (n = 18, 16 F, 2 M) B 25, 20 5 M). Group maintained their normal lifestyle during 12 weeks, followed by a 12-week programme. performed programme after...
Hepatic steatosis is associated with poor cardiometabolic health, de novo lipogenesis (DNL) contributing to hepatic and subsequent insulin resistance. saturated fatty acids (SFA) may be a marker of DNL are suggested most detrimental in Here, we show cross-sectional study design (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03211299) that able distinguish the fractions SFA, mono- polyunsaturated healthy metabolically compromised volunteers using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS). positively SFA...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence exercise-related gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and use medication for these among long-distance runners, cyclists, triathletes, relationship different variables GI symptoms. METHODS: A mail questionnaire covering preceding 12 months sent 606 well-trained endurance type athletes: 199 runners (114 men 85 women), 197 cyclists (98 99 210 triathletes (110 100 women) back by 93%, 88%, 71% groups, respectively. Symptoms were...
We investigated a broad spectrum of factors in order to identify one or few that are the primary determinant citation scores scientific papers. Our focus is on large field applied science, chemical engineering. A set 226 papers written by 18 internationally recognized scientists ('top-authors') and citations these has been used as data source. Using multiple regression analysis, we found factor 'top-author,' i.e., 'personal variation,' contributes largest number citations. Other important...
Background: We investigated whether substituting sitting with standing and self-perceived light walking in free-living conditions would improve cardiometabolic risk factors, mood cognition overweight/obese adults. Methods: In a randomized, cross-over study, 24 (m/f: 13/11) sedentary participants (64 ± 7 years, BMI 29 2 kg/m2) followed two activity regimens of each four days conditions: 'Sit': 13.5 h/day, 1.4 light-intensity 0.7 h/day; for 'SitLess' these activities lasted 7.6, 4.0 4.3...
Intragastric creaming and droplet size of fat emulsions may affect intragastric behavior gastrointestinal satiety responses.We tested the hypotheses that physiologic responses will be increased by an increase in stability a decrease emulsion.This was double-blind, randomized crossover study 11 healthy persons [8 men 3 women, aged 24 ± 1 y; body mass index (in kg/m(2)): 24.4 0.9] who consumed meals containing 300-g 20% oil water emulsion (2220 kJ) with 1) larger, 6-μm mean (Coarse treatment)...
Addition of specific types alginates to drinks can enhance postmeal suppression hunger, by forming strong gastric gels in the presence calcium. However, some recent studies have not demonstrated an effect alginate/calcium on appetite, perhaps because selected do produce sufficiently or were hydrated when consumed. Therefore, objective study was test effects appetite a strongly gelling and fully alginate acceptable, low-viscosity drink formulation. In balanced order crossover design, 23...
The site of intestinal fat delivery affects satiety and may affect food intake in humans. Animal data suggest that the length small intestine exposed to is also relevant. aim present study was investigate whether increasing areas exposure way it would parameters intake. In single-blind, randomised, cross-over study, fifteen volunteers, each intubated with a naso-ileal tube, received four treatments on consecutive days. oral control (control treatment) liquid meal (LM) containing 6 g ingested...
The aim of the study was to examine prevalence and duration/seriousness gastrointestinal (GI) problems as a function carbohydrate-rich (CHO) supplements mode exercise. relationship between GI variety physiological personal factors (age, exercise experience) also examined. Thirty-two male tri-athletes performed three experimental trials at 1-wk intervals, each trial on different supplement: conventional, semisolid supplement (S; 1.2 g CHO, 0.1 protein, 0.02 fat.kg BW-1 x h-1); an almost...
In this study we have measured word-profile similarities between citing and cited publications, as well publications specific highly papers. This "cognitive resemblance" was operationalized by different similarity measures using various kinds of terms classification types. focuses on internationally recognized chemical engineering scientists for the year 1982 "source" subsequent (of other scientists) to these pubications. empirically shows that with a citation relationship are significantly...
