purpose: doing plyometric training with and without the vessel occlusion is an effective practice for rapid increase of muscles strength their hypertrophy. we evaluated the effects of plyometric training with and without the vessel occlusion on electromyographic parameters. methods: in this quasi-experimental study, 22 females were selected through convenience sampling method. they were randoml...

  While the effect of changes of stimulus waveform (quasitrapezoidal and rectangular current pulses) on nerve activation is clear, but there is no evidence on the effect of quasitrapezoidal pulses on ionic currents of cellular membrane. In the present study, the effect of depolarizing quasi-trapezoidal current pulses, in comparison with that of depolarizing rectangular current pulses, on firing...

Large stock price movements are modeled as jumps in the stochastic processes of stock prices. In the current literature, the jump intensity is typically specified in models as a function of the current diffusive volatility and past jump intensities, while the jump size is assumed to be independent of the jump intensity. We use a nonparametric jump detection test to identify jumps in several sto...
