A need for speed? Rural Internet connectivity and the no access/dial-up/high-speed decision

Functional Speed Reserve as a Proxy for the Anaerobic Speed Reserve Using the Critical Speed Concept

Background: Although maximal sprint speed (MSS) and the anaerobic speed reserve (ASR) provides valuable information about the speed profile of athletes, these parameters fall short of providing important information about sub-maximal metabolic thresholds. The only field test that can offer an estimate of a sub-maximal metabolic threshold is the 3-minute all-out test for running (3MT) which deli...

The in-bred laboratory mouse (hereafter referred to as simply mouse) has in the past decades emerged as the go-to animal model in the arena of cardiovascular research. The reasons are straightforward: the relative ease of genetic manipulation coupled with short gestation times, the much cheaper cost of maintaining large numbers, and a large number of similarities to human genomics, proteomics, ...
