the aim of present research was to study the relation between demographic characteristics (age, sex, and family economical status) and the rate of prevalence of depression in high school students at ray city. 388 subjects (166 boys and 222 girls) were selected through stratified random sampling method. the age range of these students was between 14 to 18 years. research data was gathered throug...

Background. Most adults choose walking as a leisure activity. However, many do not reach the international physical activity guidelines for adults, which recommend moderate intensity aerobic activity for at least 150 minutes/week in bouts of 10 minutes. Purpose. This systematic review provides an update on the walking cadence required to reach moderate intensity in adults and older adults, iden...

transforming growth factor atpha (tgf-a), parathyroid hormone-tike proteins (pthlp) and oncogene p53 proteins have all been demonstrated in a variety of human tumors anil have been implicated as causes of tumor cell aggressiveness. the present study determined the existence of these peptides and their immunohistochemicat profiles in ameloblastomas. odontogenic keratocysts and dentigerous cysts ...

BACKGROUND Despite the plethora of research examining the physical activity-adiposity relation in youth, questions remain regarding the ideal intensity. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore the independent effects of physical activity intensity and incidental movement on total and trunk adiposity. METHODS The sample consisted of 1165 youth aged 8 to 17 years from the 2003-04 U....

OBJECTIVE To examine a relationship between statin intensity and heart failure (HF) incidence in diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients with type 2 diabetes (n=600; age, 66.3 years; men, 68%). Patients were categorized into three groups by baseline statin treatments-moderate-intensity, low-intensity, or no statin-and the independent associa...

Background and objectives: Elderly is characterized by decreased cardiac function, which is widely associated with mitochondrial failure in cell death. Elderly causes heart apoptosis. Although the old heart is vulnerable to apoptosis, physical training and some supplements through different mechanisms could be effective in reducing apoptosis. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of...

PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES To determine whether acute exercise reduces state anxiety and whether this reduction is moderated by the sample (i.e., breast cancer survivors versus those without a cancer diagnosis), exercise intensity (i.e., moderate versus light), and the potential sample times intensity interactions; and to explore whether changes in self-efficacy and state anxiety reciprocally predict e...

BACKGROUND Sedentary aging leads to adverse changes in vascular function and cardiac performance. We published improvements in vascular function with moderate intensity physical activity (PA) in continuous bouts. Whether moderate intensity PA also impacts cardiac structure and cardiovascular performance of the aging left ventricle (LV) is unknown. METHODS We recruited and analyzed results fro...

[Purpose] Cigarette smoking increases oxidative stress, which is a risk factor for several diseases. Moreover, strenuous exercise has been shown to induce plasma and pulmonary oxidative stress in young cigarette smokers. However, no previous reports have demonstrated whether plasma and pulmonary oxidative stress occur after moderate-intensity exercise. Therefore, the aim of this study was to cl...
