OBJECTIVE The purpose of the study was to assess total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of blood serum in relation with habitual leisure time physical activity (LTPA) and aerobic capacity in a group of 90 men with coronary heart disease (CHD) aged 34.8-77.0 years and in 90 age-matched peers without CHD. METHODS Two spectrophotometric methods were applied to assess TAC: Ferric Reducing Ability of Se...

Adherence to traditional modes of exercise (running or cycling) in the general population is low. Sport is proposed as an alternative form of exercise that may induce similar health benefits while being more enjoyable and eliciting greater adherence (Berg, 2010). While several sports are classified as vigorous-intensity (>6 METS) exercise (Ainsworth et al., 2000) and participation in sport in a...

It is difficult to know whether different dimensions of trust have different effects on local residents' acceptance of nuclear power plants (NPPs). In previous research such trust has been considered as a single dimensional concept. This paper divides trust into goodwill trust and competence trust, and we explore the ways in which trust affects acceptance of NPPs through structural equation mod...

The first structurally characterised two-coordinate hydrido-germylenes, :Ge(H)L (L = -N(Ar){Si(OBu)}, Ar = C6H2{C(H)Ph2}2R-2,6,4; R = Pr(i) ((tBuO)L(†)), Me ((tBuO)L*)), have been prepared, and their dimerisation shown to be thermodynamically unfavourable, largely due to the extreme steric bulk of their amide ligands.
