The present experiments were undertaken to investigate the effects of environmental temperatures on growth, abdominal fat content, rate muscle protein turnover, and heat production in tube-fed intact male broiler chickens. Plasma concentrations thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3), corticosterone (CTC) also examined. Chicks (15 d old) kept at different (16, 19, 22, 25, 28, 31, 34 degrees) given experimental diet (200 g crude protein/ kg, 13.57 MJ/kg metabolizable energy) by tube three times...
Motor actions may result from central changes in the referent body configuration, defined as posture at which muscles begin to be activated or deactivated. The actual configuration deviates particularly because of inertia and environmental forces. Within these constraints, system tends minimize difference between configurations. For pointing movement, this strategy can expressed tendency trajectory (R T ) (Q effector (hand). This process underlie motor equivalent behavior that maintains...
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the reporting and methodological qualities in systematic reviews (SRs) rehabilitation journals following updating use Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 statement. Methods SRs with pairwise meta-analyses on effects health interventions were selected, which published 2020, 2021, 2022 using MEDLINE (PubMed).

The development of vehicle integrated photovoltaics-powered electric vehicles (VIPV-EV) significantly reduces CO2 emissions from the transport sector to realize a decarbonized society. Although long-distance driving VIPV-EV without electricity charging is expected in sunny regions, distance affected by climate conditions such as solar irradiation and temperature rise PV modules. In this paper, detailed analytical results for effects modules upon were presented using test data Toyota Prius...
Abstract 1. The effects of dietary corticosterone and trilostane, an inhibitor glucocorticoid synthesis, on: growth, rates synthesis breakdown skeletal muscle protein, content abdominal fat were studied in broiler chickens. 2. Dietary (5, 10 or 20 mg/kg) depressed body weight gain increased a dose‐dependent manner while trilostane (1.4 7.0 had no effect. 3. rate protein estimated from N‐methylhistidine excretion was by but it decreased trilostane. 4. not affected although 5.

Reaching from standing requires simultaneous adjustments of focal and postural task elements. We investigated the ability people with stroke to stabilize endpoint trajectory while maintaining balance during reaches. Nineteen 11 age-equivalent healthy subjects reached toward a target (n = 30 trials) located beyond arm length standing. Endpoint center-of-mass (COM) trajectories were analyzed using uncontrolled manifold (UCM) approach, segment angles as elemental variables. A synergy index (SI)...
Kinematic redundancy of the human body provides abundant movement patterns to accomplish same motor goals (motor equivalence). Compensatory such as excessive trunk displacement in stroke subjects during reaching can be viewed a consequence equivalent process task despite limited available ranges some joints. However, compensations, ability adapt performance when perturbations occur may still condition-specific changes joint angles are required. We addressed this hypothesis individuals with...
Aim The objective of this study was to estimate the predictive accuracy simple cognitive and motor performance tests detect decline (CD) in community‐dwelling older adults. Methods In total, 102 adults participated study. Cognitive function, gait coordinated finger movements were assessed using Montreal Assessment, 10‐m walking test finger‐tapping test, respectively. We classified participants into either a CD ( n = 60) or healthy control 42) group. Results Significant group differences...
Inertial measurement units (IMUs) have been used increasingly to characterize long-track speed skating. We aimed estimate the accuracy of IMUs for use in phase identification Twelve healthy competitive athletes on a university skating team participated this study. Foot pressure, acceleration and knee joint angle were recorded during 1000-m trial using foot pressure system IMUs. The contact foot-off timing identified three methods (kinetic, integrated detection) stance time was also...
