Physiological response to parachute jumping.

RESPONSE OF METACARPAL FRACTURE FIXATION CONSTRUCTS TO PHYSIOLOGICAL LOADINGS

This study compares the functional capabilities of different metacarpal fixation constructs under physiological loadings in an attempt to identify the optimal construct rather than the strongest one. One hundred and twenty-six preserved human metacarpals were mechanically tested after oblique osteotomies and internal fixation. Maximum load to failure, average structural rigidity, and energ...

Physiological Response of Quinoa to Nitrogen Application under Salinity Conditions

Salinity stress is one of the major abiotic stresses which injures plants by limited water absorption and nutrient imbalance and limits crop growth. In order to study the effect of nitrogen fertilizer on physiological traits of quinoa at high salt concentrations, a greenhouse experiment was conducted in a factorial arrangement based on a randomized complete block with three replications in 2019...

Anxiety associated with parachute jumping as the cause of blood red-ox balance impairment.

OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to assess the effect of anxiety associated with parachute jumps on selected redox balance parameters in regular soldiers from airborne forces. The study allows estimating whether the paratroopers exposed to high level of mental stress are simultaneously under severe oxidative stress. METHODS The investigations were carried out on 46 professional soldiers fr...

An influence of mental stress related to parachute jumping on ACTH and cortisol levels in blood serum

Aim. The purpose of this research was to estimate the influence of parachute jumps on the level of corticotropin (ACTH) and cortisol hormones among professional soldiers from air-borne forces. Method. The study was carried out on 46 professional soldiers from 16 Air Borne Battalion, patients of Outpatient Department – SPZOZ JW. 4495 males, at the age of 20 to 45, healthy – admitted to parachute...
