On different days, 10 men performed 30-min sessions of cycling at 50-55% of their peak oxygen uptake (VO(2)); one at 40 rpm and another at 80 rpm. Rectal temperature, heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), plasma lactate, glucose, insulin, and cortisol were measured before exercise, during the 15th and 30th min of exercise, and at 5 and 10 min postexercise. Rating of perceived exertion ...

Replacing the project manager (RPM) during IT project is a known phenomenon, but surprisingly, few studies have investigated the issue. To improve understanding of the situation in the IT field, we propose a research agenda that aims to provide IT professionals the means to sustainably manage RPM in IT projects. The research agenda is structured in line with the goals of theories in Gregor’s ta...

Little is known of mechanisms regulating presynaptic differentiation. We identified rpm-1 in a screen for mutants with defects in patterning of a presynaptic marker at certain interneuronal synapses. The predicted RPM-1 protein contains zinc binding, RCC1, and other conserved motifs. In rpm-1 mutants, mechanosensory neurons fail to accumulate tagged vesicles, retract synaptic branches, and ecto...

This paper presents an image-processing-based model for calculating the interfacial-area concentration (IAC) of a low-pressure microbubble (LPMB) scrubber, which facilitates determination operational conditions scrubber via flow-pattern analysis. The LPMB maximizes interfacial area two-phase systems using bubbly flow. Microbubbles have received attention due to their microscopic sizes, high res...

In this study the reasons for replacing a project manager (RPM) during an ongoing IT project are classified. We give an interpretation on a project through the lens of Activity Theory (AT) and examine the tensions leading to RPM through the principle of contradiction in AT. We interviewed four experienced supervisors of three large project-based companies in the IT field, reviewed a previous st...

C. elegans RPM-1 (for Regulator of Presynaptic Morphology) is a member of a conserved protein family that includes Drosophila Highwire and mammalian Pam and Phr1. These are large proteins recently shown to regulate synaptogenesis through E3 ubiquitin ligase activities. Here, we report the identification of an RCC1-like guanine nucleotide exchange factor, GLO-4, from mass spectrometry analysis o...

Red and processed meat (RPM) intake varies widely globally. In some high-income countries (HIC) the last decade has witnessed an overall decline or stabilisation in the consumption of RPM, in contrast to emerging economies where its consumption continues to increase with rising income and rapid urbanisation. The production and consumption of RPM have become major concerns regarding the environm...
