There have been few studies regarding physical training-induced peripheral nerve dysfunction in patients with hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP), with the exception of soldiers that trained intensively. Here, we report a 15-year-old boy without family history of HNPP who developed bilateral painless brachial plexopathy following short-term barbell and plank training...

a numerical study of 3d electrokinetic flows through micromixers was performed. the micromixers considered here consisted of heterogeneous rectangular microchannels with prescribed patterns of zeta-potential at their walls. numerical simulation of electroosmotic flows within heterogeneous channels requires solution of the navier-stokes, ernest-plank and species concentration equations. it is kn...

Postural problems can occur in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Regular exercise is recommended CF management. Core stabilization exercises have a positive impact on muscle strength and physical fitness different populations. The purpose of this study to evaluate the effects core protocol posture CF. Sixteen children with were included study. Patients randomly allocated either group (N = 8) or co...

Background. Training in any sport aims to maximize athletes’ physical capacity. Objectives. This study aimed to determine the effects of two training programs, functional training, and weight training, on the physical capacity of university baseball players. Methods. The participants included 10 university baseball players, divided into the functional training group (FTG, n=5) and the weight ...

Most languages of the world have not been the focus of a speech recognition development effort, and the choice of technical approaches best suited to a language can be substantially impacted by the cultural context surrounding it. As the technologist and the teacher of or expert in a non-mainstream language and its culture are typically not the same person, issues that are self-evident to one m...

In this study, a computational model was developed using commercial finite element analysis package COMSOL Multiphysics (Burlington, MA) to simulate the electrical double layer (EDL) structure and quantify the EDL capacitance for the first time. In the modeling the electrochemical process at an EDL structure was considered by solving the Poisson, Nernst-Plank and Butler-Volmer equations without...

BACKGROUND Physical strength is associated with improved health outcomes in children. Heavier children tend to have lower functional strength and mobility. Physical activity can increase children's strength, but it is unknown how different types of electronic media use impact physical strength. METHODS Data from the NHANES National Youth Fitness Survey (NNYFS) from children ages 6-15 were ana...

OBJECTIVE Recent research has shown the Köhler motivation gain effect (working at a task with a more capable partner where one's performance is indispensable to the group) leads to greater effort in partnered exercise videogame play. The purpose of this article was to examine potential moderators of the Köhler effect by exploring dissimilarities in one's partner's appearance, namely, having an ...
