PURPOSE To examine the influence of exercise intensity on postprandial health outcomes in adolescents when exercise is accumulated throughout the day. METHODS 19 adolescents (9 male, 13.7±0.4 years old) completed three 1-day trials in a randomised order: (1) rest (CON); or four bouts of (2) 2×1 min cycling at 90% peak power with 75 s recovery (high-intensity interval exercise; HIIE); or (3) c...

Light scattering by a spherical particle with radial anisotropy is discussed by extending Mie theory to diffraction by an anisotropic sphere, including both the electric and the magnetic anisotropy ratio. It is shown that radial anisotropy may lead to great modifications in scattering efficiencies and field enhancement, elucidating the importance of anisotropies in the control of scattering. Th...

Silicon carbide particles exhibit both electric and magnetic optical resonances, allowing unexplored dielectric metamaterial designs. Experimental extinction spectra and Mie theory calculations of single microscale rod-shaped particles reveal three observable midinfrared resonant modes. Two of the modes are degenerate, with a frequency that can be tuned according to a resonance condition derive...

Combining the Mie scattering theory and a transfer matrix method, we investigate in detail the scattering of light by spherical Bragg "onion" resonators. We classify the resonator modes into two classes, the core modes that are confined by Bragg reflection, and the cladding modes that are confined by total internal reflection. We demonstrate that these two types of modes lead to significantly d...

A goal in the field of nanoscale optics is fabrication nanostructures with strong directional light scattering at visible frequencies. Here, synthesis Mie-resonant core–shell particles overlapping electric and magnetic dipole resonances spectrum demonstrated. The core consists silicon surrounded by a lower index oxynitride (SiOxNy) shell an adjustable thickness. Optical spectroscopies coupled t...

Evidence on the benefits of minimally invasive surgery over open procedures in gastrointestinal surgery is continuing to accumulate. This is also the case for esophageal surgery. Esophageal cancer often requires extensive surgery and is, therefore, considered to be one of the most invasive elective gastrointestinal procedures. Clinical studies investigating means to reduce the invasive nature o...

BACKGROUND To achieve decreased invasiveness and lower morbidity, minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) was introduced in 1997 for localized esophageal cancer. The combined thoracoscopic-laparoscopic esophagectomy (left neck anastomosis, defined as the McKeown MIE procedure) has been performed since 2007 at our institution. From 2007 to 2011, our institution subsequently evolved as a high-volu...

Acute exercise has been shown to attenuate postprandial plasma triglyceride elevation (PPTG). However, the direct contribution of exercise intensity is less well understood. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of exercise intensity on PPTG and postprandial fat oxidation. One of three experimental treatments was performed in healthy young men (n = 6): nonexercise control (CON), ...

Diethylenetriaminepenta-acetic acid (DTPA) inhibits human cytomegalovirus (CMV) replication in vitro, although the mechanism has remained unclear. The present study shows that DTPA inhibits CMV major immediate-early (MIE) promoter activity in a luciferase reporter assay, whereas its enhancer-less promoter was not affected. The inhibitory effect of DTPA on CMV MIE promoter activity was abrogated...
