Eight common imidazolium based ionic liquids have been successfully evaporated in ultra-high vacuum, their vapours analysed by line of sight mass spectrometry and heats (enthalpy) vapourisation determined. They were found to evaporate as ion pairs, with which depend primarily on the coulombic interactions within liquid phase gas pair. An electrostatic model is presented relating molar volumes liquids.
Sarcopenia is a generalised skeletal muscle disorder characterised by reduced strength and mass associated with range of negative health outcomes. Currently, resistance exercise (RE) recommended as the first-line treatment for counteracting deleterious consequences sarcopenia in older adults. However, whilst there considerable evidence demonstrating that RE an effective intervention improving function healthy adults, much less known about its benefits people living sarcopenia. Furthermore,...
Sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass and strength/function, is an important clinical condition. However, no international consensus on definition exists. The Global Leadership Initiative in Sarcopenia (GLIS) aimed to address this by establishing global conceptual sarcopenia. GLIS steering committee was formed 2019-21 with representatives from all relevant scientific societies worldwide. During time, developed a set statements topic invited members these participate two-phase...
High-intensity interval training (HIT) can impact cardiorespiratory and muscular fitness simultaneously, yet protocols typically focus on lower-body exercise. For older adults however, performing activities of daily living requires upper- fitness.To assess the effects combined HIT in aged > 50 years.Thirty-six (50-81 years; 21 male) were assigned via minimisation to either (n = 18) or a no-exercise control group (CON, n following baseline assessment leg extensor muscle power, handgrip...
Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate motivators and barriers older adults engaging in a nutrition resistance exercise (RE) intervention for sarcopenia. Methods: We conducted content analysis of structured interviews with 29 community-dwelling (aged 65–80 years) completing the MIlk Intervention Muscle AgeiNg (MIlkMAN) study. Results: Content revealed that self-perceived improved health, knowledge acquisition exercise, social well-being, professional support fun environment,...
Abstract Background Many older adults live with the combination of multiple long-term conditions (MLTC) and frailty are at increased risk a deterioration in health requiring interaction healthcare services. Low skeletal muscle strength is observed individuals living MLTC central to physical frailty. Resistance exercise (RE) best available treatment for improving strength, but little known about attitudes barriers RE this group adults. This study therefore aimed explore knowledge towards RE,...
Abstract Background Weak grip strength is associated with a range of adverse health outcomes and an accelerated decline in confers even greater risk. The factors change mid-life remain to be fully determined. Methods We used data from 44,315 UK Biobank participants who had measured at baseline (2006-10) subsequent visit approximately nine years later. At baseline, participants’ long-term conditions (LTCs) were categorised against hierarchy, multimorbidity characterised by the number LTC...
Muscular power is important for maintaining physical functioning with aging. Proper quantification of the reliability muscular tests crucial to inform monitoring individuals and sample size planning interventional studies. This study evaluated short- long-term leg extensor measurement in 72 adults (age 62.7 ± 8.6 years). Participants completed four repeat trials on Nottingham rig, a further trial twelve weeks later. Mean change, typical error, intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were...
Little is known about the responses of girl athletes to training interventions throughout maturation. This study evaluated group and individual an 8-week, mixed-methods, high-intensity interval (HIIT) programme in football players. Thirty-seven players (age 13.4 ± 1.5 years) were tested for 20-m speed, repeated-sprint ability, change-of-direction speed level 1 yo-yo intermittent recovery (YYIR). Players subcategorised into before-, at- after-PHV (peak height velocity) based on maturity...

Exercise is an increasingly widely used treatment for older people across a range of clinical conditions including sarcopenia and physical frailty. Whilst exercise can have many benefits people, adaptations to are specific the mode that performed not all created equal. The correct type exercise, at dose, needs be prescribed maximise effectiveness in treating frailty where maintaining or improving muscle strength function represent key aims. Resistance (RE) most potent approach should...
