Abstract Upon entering the tidal sphere of a supermassive black hole, star is ripped apart by tides and transformed into stream debris. The ultimate fate that debris, properties bright flare produced observed, depends on number parameters, including energy center mass original star. Here we present results set smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations in which 1 M ⊙ , γ = 5/3 polytrope disrup...

Introduction The Physicians advocacy institute (Pai) is a not-for-profit 501(c)(6) advocacy organization established in 2006 with funds from settlement agreements in the multidistrict litigation (mDl) class action against major national for-profit health insurers. Pai’s board of Directors is comprised of Ceos of medical societies involved in the mDl and a physician who was a named plaintiff in ...

The applied use of eccentric muscle actions for physical rehabilitation may utilize the framework of periodization. This approach may facilitate the safe introduction of eccentric exercise and appropriate management of the workload progression. The purpose of this data-driven Hypothesis and Theory paper is to present a periodization model for isokinetic eccentric strengthening of older adults i...

Eccentric exercise is characterized by initial unfavorable effects such as subcellular muscle damage, pain, reduced fiber excitability, and initial muscle weakness. However, stretch combined with overload, as in eccentric contractions, is an effective stimulus for inducing physiological and neural adaptations to training. Eccentric exercise-induced adaptations include muscle hypertrophy, increa...

This nonexhaustive mini-review reports on the application of eccentric exercise in various rehabilitation populations. The two defining properties of eccentric muscle contractions--a potential for high muscle-force production at an energy cost that is uniquely low--are revisited and formatted as exercise countermeasures to muscle atrophy, weakness, and deficits in physical function. Following a...
