BACKGROUND This study examined the efficacy of short-term alpha-ketoisocaproic acid (KIC) monotherapy supplementation immediately prior to moderate- and high-intensity single bout exercise performance. METHODS Thirteen resistance trained men (22.8 +/- 2.5 years; 81.6 +/- 12.6 kg) participated in a prospective, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled crossover experiment. Each subject com...

Cold-pressed canola cake is a coproduct of biodiesel production that contains more residual oil than expeller-pressed and solvent-extracted canola meal. Cold-pressed canola cake might be an attractive feedstuff for swine due to local availability from small plants. However, the nutritional quality and content of anti-nutritional factors of cold-pressed canola cake are poorly defined and vary wi...

In the warm dark matter scenario, Press-Schechter formalism is valid only for galaxy masses greater than “velocity dispersion cut-off”. this work we extend predictions to below velocity cut-off, and thereby address “Missing Satellites Problem” of cold ΛCDM rest-frame ultra-violet luminosity cut-off required not exceed measured reionization optical depth. For find agreement between observations ...

The extant literature has demonstrated that the logic of retaliation is a core feature of negative campaigning. Attacks by one side induce counterattacks by the other. Yet most research on the interactive nature of negative campaigning is limited to two-party competition and provides little theoretical justification for why political actors should respond to attacks with counterattacks. The pre...

BACKGROUND Communicating clinical trial results to research participants is seldom accomplished in a timely or an effective manner. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of a plan to communicate results in an industry-sponsored randomized controlled trial for Huntington disease. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Postal survey to research participants at 28 of 41 research sites (including ...

Cold-induced thermogenesis increases energy expenditure and can reduce body weight in mammals, so the genes involved in it are thought to be potential therapeutic targets for treating obesity and diabetes. In the quest for more effective therapies, a great deal of research has been conducted to elucidate the regulatory mechanism of cold-induced thermogenesis. Over the last decade, a large numbe...

A notable development of recent times has been the exponential increase of video content available on newspaper websites. The technological convergence between press and broadcasting throws into sharp relief the historically disparate regulation of the two sectors. As long as no political consensus on regulatory convergence can be reached, the question of how to distinguish between text-based a...

Mixed dark matter models with one low-mass (e.g. 2.4eV) neutrino avor are shown to be in good agreement with observations if the neutrinos have nonzero chemical potentials. This agreement holds (except for the problem with a low-age Universe) even for high values of the Hubble-parameter. Massless neutrinos with non-zero chemical potentials may reconcile cold dark matter with observations. Some ...
