Reducing sitting time as well increasing physical activity in inactive people is beneficial for their health. This paper investigates the effectiveness of European Fans Training (EuroFIT) programme to improve and sedentary male football fans, delivered through professional setting.A total 1,113 men aged 30-65 with self-reported body mass index (BMI) ≥27 kg/m2 took part a randomised controlled trial 15 clubs England, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal. Recruitment was between September 19, 2015,...
Lifestyle interventions targeting physical activity, sedentary time and dietary behaviours have the potential to initiate support behavioural change result in public health gain. Although men often been reluctant engage such lifestyle programs, many are at high risk of several chronic conditions. We developed an evidence theory-based, gender sensitised, program (European Fans Training (EuroFIT)), which is designed attract through loyalty they feel football club support. This paper describes...
Field experiments were conducted in 2010 and 2011 at a Mclean County, IL seed corn production field where resistance to foliar-applied 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitors was confirmed waterhemp. Corn herbicides applied the soil 1 2 times (1× 2×, respectively) recommended use rate, while soybean only 1× rate. Waterhemp control density determined 30 60 d after treatment (DAT). In corn, rates of mesotrione, safened unsafened isoxaflutole formulations, atrazine, S -metolachlor...
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to determine the most important impairments affecting gait pattern incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) patient and potential impact their treatment. consists two parts. Firstly, a survey amongst 16 professionals was done find out in incomplete‐SCI patients. Secondly, data from 21 individuals were analyzed common impairments. Frequently observed relevant were: inadequate hip extension (occurrence 76%), limited flexion (52%), knee (71%), excess plantar...
Objectives Time spent inactive and sedentary are both associated with poor health. Self-monitoring of walking, using pedometers for real-time feedback, is effective at increasing physical activity. This study evaluated the feasibility a new pocket-worn time activity self-monitoring device (SitFIT). Methods Forty men were equally randomised into two intervention groups. For 4 weeks, one group received SitFIT providing feedback on steps (lying/sitting); other upright (standing/stepping)....
Pedometers, which enable self-monitoring of step counts, are effective in facilitating increases physical activity. Similar devices provide real-time feedback on sedentary (sitting) behavior limited. This study aimed to develop and validate a novel device-the SitFIT-which could accurately measure activity.The SitFIT is triaxial accelerometer, developed by PAL Technologies, worn the front trouser pocket. enables tracking thigh inclination therefore differentiation between sitting upright...
Draws on the convergence in enterprise and manufacturing strategies apparent established theories models. Develops this form through enterprise‐wide competitive dimensions into a customizable business environment technology/programme‐specific support framework. This generic framework links dimensions, manufacturing‐enterprise, business‐process chains typology; each is selectable for specific operation. Describes result which method of decomposing goals aggregate business‐specific,...
The use of and demand for functional electrical stimulation (FES) systems conventional orthoses in the spinal cord lesioned population was assessed. assessment conducted by a postal survey members injury associations U.K. Out all respondents, only 2% had used an FES system walking. In comparison, 13% some kind orthosis. Of small numbers who walking, more than half no walking abilities. majority orthosis users independent ability. improvements high among respondents although this not matched...
The purposes of this study were to quantify the actual upright activity inpatient stroke patients in order investigate influence disability, physiotherapy contact time, and time since on amount recorded. Forty-one inpatients from three Glasgow units monitored during one therapeutic day. Measurements made using an instrumented recording device which quantified (i) proportion spent upright, (ii) frequency transitions upright. results compared a global measure Barthel Index, functional mobility...
Field experiments were conducted across the north-central United States to determine benefits of various weed control strategies in corn. Weed control, corn yield, and economic return increased when a preemergence (PRE) broad-spectrum herbicide was followed by (fb) postemergence (POST) herbicides. decisions based on field scouting after PRE application return. Application grass fb POST resulted less velvetleaf morningglory species, compared with scouting. Cultivation yield applied alone, but...
Prostheses are prescribed to restore the mobility of people with amputated lower limbs. Monitoring prosthesis wearing times and physical activity users would provide invaluable information regarding rehabilitation progress suitability prosthesis. The validation a method determine state, as well strides taken, amputees suction suspension sockets is reported. Eight participants transtibial amputation were fitted custom-made sockets. Analysis algorithms used automatically characterize based on...
