This study aimed to (1) compare the postural control strategies, sensory organization of balance control, and lower limb muscle performance of children with and without developmental coordination disorder (DCD) and (2) determine the association between postural control strategies, sensory organization parameters and knee muscle performance indices among children with DCD. Fifty-eight DCD-affect...

INTRODUCTION Keeping balance of the upright stance is a highly practiced daily task for healthy adults and is effectively performed without overt attentional control in most. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of concurrent cognitive tasks on postural sway in healthy participants. METHODS This was a prospective study. 20 healthy volunteer subjects were included...

pistachio nut (pistacia vera l.) is one of the popular and nutritious tree nuts in the world. pistachio spread is a new product which is made from pistachio paste, icing sugar, soy protein isolate (spi), and red palm oil (rpo). this study involved sensory acceptability (by 32 assessors) using hedonic scale and development of suitable terminology for describing pistachio spread using quantitativ...

A concussion is the result of a biomechanical force directed toward the head, causing neurologic dysfunction. The inflammatory response and the production of reactive oxygen species are proposed mechanisms for the symptoms and long-term sequelae of concussion. Osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) may help reduce inflammation by improving glymphatic flow. The authors describe the effect of O...

the cellular organization of the olfactory epithelium of puntius sarana (hamilton, 1822) was explored by means of optical and scanning electron microscopy. the oval shaped olfactory rosette was composed of 26-28 primary lamellae distributed from both sides of the central raphe. the sensory epithelium confined chiefly on the linguiform processes of the lamella and rest of the portion consisted o...
