This article is a summary of the proceedings from a panel presentation and discussion ‘‘Prehospital Rapidsequence Intubation—What Does the Evidence Show?’’ presented at the National Association of EMS Physicians (NAEMSP) annual meeting, Tucson, Arizona, in January 2004. The presenters, Henry E. Wang, MD, MPH, Daniel P. Davis, MD, and Marvin A. Wayne, MD, are nationally recognized leaders in the...

Milk has become a popular post-exercise recovery drink. Yet the evidence for its use in this regard comes from a limited number of investigations utilising very specific exercise protocols, and mostly with male participants. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of post-exercise milk consumption on recovery from a sprinting and jumping protocol in female team-sport ath...

Responses to recently ignored stimuli may be slower or less accurate than to new stimuli. This negative priming effect decays over time when delay is randomized within subjects, but not when delay varies between subjects. In Experiment 1, response-stimulus intervals (RSI) of 500 and 4,000 ms were randomized within subjects in a target localization task. Negative priming of ignored locations dim...

drought stress is one of the most important problems of agriculture and an important factor of plant product reduction. application of absorbent materials can help usage of sporadic rain fall and cause more maintenance of water storage. in order to study the effect of super absorbent polymer, potassium sulfate and manure under drought condition and favorable irrigation on some traits of foxtail...

effect of seed priming by salicylic acid and application of controlled water stress in flowering stage on some physiological characters such as relative water content, chlorophyll index, photosynthetic rates, transpiration rates, stomatal conductance, and leaf internal co2 concentration was investigated on cowpea (vigna unguiculata l. cv. parastoo) plants. experiment was done as a split block d...

Furlong, L-AM, Harrison, AJ, and Jensen, RL. Measures of strength jump performance can predict 30-m sprint time in Rugby Union players. J Strength Cond Res 35(9): 2579–2583, 2021—Performance fitness monitoring often include jumping, sprinting, tests, but repeatability relationships between these measures are unclear. The level interindividual variability their predictive capabilities also unkno...

At percent, Zn stress tolerance using novel genetic resources is an important mitigation strategy for plant breeding. In this study, thirty-five durum wheat genotypes with different growth habits were evaluated under normal (non-stress) and Zn deficient stress during the 2014-15 cropping season. A total of ten Zn stress tolerance indices including stress tolerance index (STI), relative zinc-def...
