Epidemiological evidence shows that regular physical activity is associated with reduced risk of primary and recurrent colon cancer. However, the underlying mechanisms action are poorly understood. We evaluated effects stimulating a human cancer cell line (LoVo) serum collected before after an acute exercise bout vs nonexercise control on proliferation. also measured exercise-induced changes in cytokines intracellular protein expression to explore potential biological mechanisms. Blood...
Harper, DJ, Jordan, AR, and Kiely, J. Relationships between eccentric concentric knee strength capacities maximal linear deceleration ability in male academy soccer players. J Strength Cond Res 35(2): 465-472, 2021-The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships ability, flexor (KF) extensor (KE) strength. Fourteen players completed a 30-m sprint, test, KF KE contractions both dominant leg (DL) nondominant (NDL) at slower (60°·s-1) faster (180°·s-1) angular velocities on an...
Background People with Parkinson’s (PwP) can experience both physical and psychological symptoms, understanding the perspectives of people affected is crucial for improved management, clinical outcomes. Objectives This online survey aimed to gain a better relationship between subjectively experienced symptoms by PwP their carers, while also considering influence personal roles past symptom experiences. Methods A UK-wide 251 62 carers was conducted. The focused on reported diagnosed...
Current physical literacy recommendations include a focus on enhancing teachers’ knowledge and understanding of the concept. This paper explores whether education (PE) practitioners in country where is not foregrounded educational practice are naturally aligning their approach towards creation learning experiences that would nurture literacy. Ten in-service Spanish PE teachers delivering Educación Secundaria Obligatoria Bachillerato programmes to students aged 13 18 years (seven male, three...
Observational tools can help refine practice design and guide the creation of effective learning environments. The intention this study was to validate an observational instrument for assessing physical literacy that remains more faithful philosophically complex holistic nature concept.Framed by concepts ecological dynamics, emergent games-based assessment tool enables capture children's interactions with their environment, providing insight on manifestation within education games....
The purpose of this study was to assess the functional effects and acceptability rocker-soled shoes that were designed relatively "unload" calf muscles during walking in people with claudication due peripheral arterial disease. In randomised AB/BA crossover trial, participants completed two assessment visits up weeks apart. At each visit, tests whilst wearing unloading or visually-similar control shoes. end second given either use their home environment for 2 weeks, instruction wear them at...
Abstract Background People with Parkinson’s (PwP) can experience both physical and psychological symptoms, understanding the perspectives of people affected is crucial for improved management, clinical outcomes. Objectives This online survey sought to investigate whether individuals perceive a connection between while also considering influence personal roles past symptom experiences. Methods A UK-wide 251 PwP 61 family/carers was conducted. The focused on reported diagnosed non-diagnosed...
Background Individuals with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) often experience not only physical symptoms but also a higher prevalence of psychological issues, including depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and psychotic symptoms, compared to the general population. The relationship between these remains poorly understood, particularly in relation commonly used measures function wider variety symptoms. Investigating this link is essential for optimising patient care. This cohort study registered OSF (...
This study examined the validity of an inertial measurement unit system for measuring lower-limb joint kinematics during linear decelerations. A male team athlete (age 36 years, stature 1.75 m, mass 80.0 kg) performed multiple decelerations, following 20 m runs at 50%, 75% and 100% self-perceived effort. Inertial sensors were strapped to segments retroreflective markers adhered lower-limbs 3D optical motion analysis. Ground contact time, foot centre displacement (foot-COM), peak minimum...
The vertical treadmill (VertiRun) is an unresearched, partial weight-bearing exercise mode for lower limb rehabilitation. user undertakes a "running-like" action whilst body weight supported by bench and the drawn downwards against overhanging resistance cables on vertically hung nonmotorised treadmill. This study sought to describe kinematics neuromuscular recruitment during VertiRun in supine, 40°, 70° postures. Twenty-one healthy male participants (age, 25±7 years; stature, 1.79±0.07 m;...
