This 2-wave longitudinal study aimed (1) to investigate whether high resting RSA predicted adolescents' lower externalizing behavior and higher empathic concern, and (2) to address the potential moderating role of resting RSA in the association between parent-adolescent relationship quality and adolescents' externalizing behavior and empathic concern. In a sample of 379 adolescents (212 boys, 1...

The ability to nondestructively image and automatically phenotype complex root systems, like those of rice (Oryza sativa), is fundamental to identifying genes underlying root system architecture (RSA). Although root systems are central to plant fitness, identifying genes responsible for RSA remains an underexplored opportunity for crop improvement. Here we describe a nondestructive imaging and ...

purpose this study investigated the effects of time-of-day on aerobic and anaerobic performances during the yo-yo, repeated sprint ability (rsa) and the wingate tests in young soccer players. methods in a counterbalanced and a random order, twenty junior male soccer players completed the yo-yo, the rsa, and the wingate tests at two different times-of-day: 07:00 and 17:00 h. during the yo-yo tes...

in this research sampling of poultry slaughterhouses in tehran province was done. the samples were investigated by serological tests : rapid serum agglutination (rsa) , elisa and broth & agar specific culture of mycoplasma. the main test for isolation and determination in this survey was rsa. in this investigation 4530 pharyngeal swab and blood sample from 226 poultryhouse were taken, in rsa me...

Normally, at rest, the amplitude of respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) appears to correlate with cardiac vagal tone. However, recent studies showed that, under stress, RSA dissociates from vagal tone, indicating that separate mechanisms might regulate phasic and tonic vagal activity. This dissociation has been linked to the hypothesis that RSA improves pulmonary gas exchange through preferentia...

A hypothesis is presented that explains the physiological reasons why the magnitude of respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) appears to correlate with cardiac vagal tone. The hypothesis is that RSA is an intrinsic resting function of the cardiopulmonary system. Although RSA is mediated by respiratory modulation of cardiac vagal outflow and its magnitude is used as an index of cardiac vagal activit...
