Maximal oxygen uptake VO(2max)) is considered the optimal method to assess aerobic fitness. The measurement of VO(2max), however, requires special equipment and training. Maximal exercise testing with determination of maximal power output offers a more simple approach. This study explores the relationship between [Vdot]O(2max) and maximal power output in 247 children (139 boys and 108 girls) ag...

Exercise is recognized as a part of the management of obesity and diabetes. Various protocols of exercise are proposed for the management of obesity, diabetes, and other metabolic diseases. One of the strategies proposed by several authors is low intensity endurance training targeted at the level of maximal oxidation. Large series using this technique are lacking. Addressing this issue, we perf...

In analogy with the maximal tensor product of C *-algebras, we define the " maximal " tensor product E 1 ⊗ µ E 2 of two operator spaces E 1 and E 2 and we show that it can be identified completely isometrically with the sum of the two Haagerup tensor

BACKGROUND The benefit of mobile health (mHealth) on diabetes management among low-income, inner-city patients is largely unknown, particularly for Latino patients. TExT-MED (Trial to Examine Text Message for Emergency Department Patients with Diabetes) is a text message-based program designed to improve disease knowledge, self-efficacy, and glycemic control among low-income, inner-city Latinos...

LetM be a real-valued n×nmatrix whose eigenvalues have positive real parts. Then we consider the dilation group {At}t>0 in R generated by the infinitesimal generator M , where At = exp(M log t) for t > 0. We introduce At-homogeneous distance functions ̺ defined on R; that is, ̺ : R → [0,∞) is a continuous function satisfying ̺(Atξ) = t̺(ξ) for all ξ ∈ R. One can refer to [3] and [11] for its fundam...

The aim of this paper is to study semigroups possessing E-regular elements, where an element a of a semigroup S is E-regular if a has an inverse a◦ such that aa◦, a◦a lie in E ⊆ E(S). Where S possesses ‘enough’ (in a precisely defined way) E-regular elements, analogues of Green’s lemmas and even of Green’s theorem hold, where Green’s relations R,L,H and D are replaced by R̃E , L̃E , H̃E and D̃E . N...

INTRODUCTION Maximal strength is often estimated using the force-endurance relationship, where tables or formula are used to predict one repetition maximum (1RM) or other loads (e.g. 3RM loads). For some populations (for example the frail or very young) such a procedure may not be appropriate and the accuracy of these methods depends on several parameters such as the number of repetitions, type...

Surgeon, 1th Regiment M. N. I. 1 Hiatorical.?Sambalpur first comes before us in the epic which describes the famous exploits of Kama in his expedition against the demon Havana, and according to the legend, the warlike Rama largely recruited his monkey army from this locality. But let us leave the fabulous part of the story and give a brief account of the former history of Sambalpur. The first R...

where U is the class of all h∈ L2(R+,r−1dr) with ‖h‖L2(R+,r−1dr) ≤ 1. The operator Ω was introduced by Chen and Lin [7]. They showed that Ω is bounded on Lp(Rn) for all p > 2n/(2n− 1) provided that Ω ∈ (Sn−1). Recently, we have been able to show that the Lp(Rn) boundedness of Ω still holds for all p ≥ 2 if the condition Ω ∈ (Sn−1) is replaced by the more natural and weaker condition Ω ∈ L(logL)...

The relation between approach regions and singularities of nonnegative kernels Kt(x, y) is studied, where t ∈ (0,∞), x, y ∈ X, and X is a homogeneous space. For 1 ≤ p < q < ∞, a sufficient condition on approach regions Ωa (a ∈ X) is given so that the maximal function sup (x,t)∈Ωa ∫ X Kt(x, y)f(y) dσ(y) is weak-type (p, q) with respect to a pair of measures σ and ω. It is shown that this conditi...
