The aim of this study was to identify the most important variables determining current differences in physical stature Europe and some its overseas offshoots such as Australia, New Zealand USA. We collected data on height young men from 45 countries compared them with long-term averages food consumption FAOSTAT database, various development indicators compiled by World Bank CIA Factbook, frequencies several genetic markers. Our analysis demonstrates that factor explaining among nations...
The purpose of this study is to explore the main correlates male height in 105 countries Europe & overseas, Asia, North Africa and Oceania. Actual data on are compared with average consumption 28 protein sources (FAOSTAT, 1993–2009) seven socioeconomic indicators (according World Bank, CIA Factbook United Nations). This comparison identified three fundamental types diets based rice, wheat milk, respectively. rice dominates tropical where it accompanied by very low total energy intake, one...
Background Frequent use of modern diabetes technologies increases the chance for optimal type 1 (T1D) control. Limited reimbursement influences access patients with T1D to these modalities and could worsen their prognosis. We aimed describe situation insulins, glucometers, insulin pumps (CSII) continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) children in European countries participating SWEET Project compare data from EU our previous study 2009. Methods The was conducted between March 2017 August 2017....
The aim of this work was to offer an ecological alternative conventional observational studies and identify factors potentially associated with cancer incidence in Europe. 24 types 39 European countries (2012) compared a long-term mean supply 68 food items from the FAOSTAT database (1993-2011) some other variables such as smoking, body mass index, raised cholesterol, socioeconomic indicators. In addition simple Pearson linear correlations, data were analyzed via factor analyses penalized...
The aim of this anthropometric survey was to map regional differences in height and body proportions eight counties adjacent the Adriatic coast Croatia. Body measured 1,803 males 782 females aged 17–20 years at 66 schools 23 towns. When corrected for population size regions, mean male is 182.6 cm all counties, 182.8 seven Croatia, 183.7 four Dalmatia proper. Regional variation considerable: from 180.6 county Karlovac 184.1 Split-Dalmacija. based on more limited data (168.0 counties). These...
In this research, we have attempted to find out and compare selected characteristics of gait in men women; 20 women aged 30-39 were observed.The average age was 34.0 years, 34.1 years respectively.For measuring, pressure shoe insoles used (Pedar Mobile, Novel Munich, 99 sensors, 100 Hz).Each person had three attempts: two trial attempts, the third one measured.For observation, stances each leg, always between eighth stride.Significant differences found stance duration active part while...
While stress is a widely utilized concept, no direct methods facilitating its measurement are currently available. In our previous work we proposed entropic load (SEL) as potential new marker of response in the human body. However, at that time method for SEL existed. this pilot study devised and then tested methodology measurement. Healthy male participants were monitored by indirect calorimetry thermography while resting subsequently under prolonged mental effort. The acquired data was...
Introduction: Sprinting is a key component in the development and final results many individual team sports. According to recent findings on mechanical determinants of sprint performance, resistance sprinting (RSS) may be suitable method improve performance acceleration maximum velocity phases. Methods: Sports science students (183.6 ± 5.1 cm; 85.8 6.8 kg; 24.5 .9 yrs), who are primarily involved collective sports, performed two-day testing. The first testing included tests maximal strength,...
In Special Olympics, athletes' foot deformities, abnormal postural patterns and overweight obesity were observed to be more common than in the general population. Therefore, purpose of this study was analyze relationship between body composition posture index. Additionally, effect gender other factors on index athletes with intellectual disability (ID) analyzed.131 ID participated study: 36 table tennis players, 66 cross country skiers 29 downhill skiers. Their assessed using bioimpedance...
The aim of this study was to analyze the possible relationship between quantitative aspect walking and rate obesity in different age sex groups among adult population Czech Republic. A cross-sectional data from SPA questionnaire measurement (BMI, WHR,% fat, fitness score) by bioelectrical impedance method (InBody 720), a sample 410 male 503 female persons Republic, 6 categories (18-29 years, n = 39m, 63Z; 30-39, 103 M, 138Z; 40-49, 72 93Z; 93, 50-59, 38 62Z; 60-69, 144 mm, 131Z; 70 + 14...

Endurance sport performance is influenced by many factors, such as motor economies. In this research we focused on running and cycling Twenty-eight first year students of Faculty Sport science Masaryk University (age 20.29 ± 0.94 years, height 182.32 7.98 cm, weight 76.98 10.03 kg) were purposively selected to participate subjects. The test subjects randomized into experimental group (n = 17) control 11). Pre-test post-test taken RE CE. PI protocol was eight weeks, twice a week, sets per...
Heart rate values are considered to be a significant indicator of individual fitness, intensity exerciseand sympathetic activation. There few studies in Czech literature focused on the heart athleteswith intellectual disabilities. The aim this study was describe characteristics rateduring fifteen table tennis matches within 23rd national tournament Special OlympicsMovement. Ten participants (6 males, 4 females) who for at least 3 years train regularly and participatein competitions under...

Comparison of maximum lactate between course navette test and hoff in soccer players at 2600 meters above sea
The purpose of this study was to compare running economy (by oxygen consumption) in long distance runners on three different surfaces (asphalt, cinder and tartan). Thirty Czech (age: 25.1±4.3 years, height: 183.2±7.4 cm, body mass: 72.4±6.0 kg, BMI: 22.5±1.4 VO2 max: 65.8±5.2 ml∙min∙kg-1) participated study. We measured uptake by wireless, portable cardiopulmonary stress testing system (Oxygen Mobile, Viasys) each surface during at speeds: 10, 12, 14 16 km∙h-1. Differences were assessed...
