introduction: purpose of this study was the effect of different music rhythms (fast rhythm and slow rhythm) in physiological responses of health young male after an exhaustive exercise session during primary minutes of recovery period. methods: seventeen healthy male (ages: 19.76 ± 0.97 yr, height: 176 ± 6.72 cm, weight: 68.5 ±7 5.95 kg), voluntarily performed bruce protocol until exhaustion wi...

To determine whether the yogic Ujjayi pranayamic type of breathing that involves sensory awareness and consciously controlled, extremely slow-rate breathing including at least a period of end-inspiration breath holding in each respiratory cycle would alter oxygen consumption or not, ten males with long standing experience in pranayama, and volunteering to participate in the laboratory study wer...

Dietary omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are readily incorporated into heart and skeletal muscle membranes where, in the heart, animal studies show they reduce O2 consumption. To test the hypothesis that omega-3 PUFAs alter O2 efficiency in humans, the effects of fish oil (FO) supplementation on O2 consumption during exercise were evaluated. Sixteen well-trained men (cyclists), rando...

The reaction of fullerene molecules with soot was studied by contacting sublimed C fullerenes with commercially 60 available carbon black particles at different temperatures in the range 1023–1273 K. Fullerene mass data collected both preand post-reaction were fit to a simple first-order kinetic model and yielded a temperature-dependent reaction rate expression. 28 21 The calculated collision e...

BACKGROUND High levels of alcohol consumption and increases in heavy episodic drinking (binge drinking) are a growing public concern, due to their association with increased risk of personal and societal harm. Alcohol consumption has been shown to be sensitive to factors such as price and availability. The aim of this study was to explore the influence of glass shape on the rate of consumption ...

The relationship of maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) with dihydrogenated ergot alkaloids was investigated in twelve young men. They were subjected to graded bicycle exercise with work loads corresponding to 75% and 120% of the load necessary to elicit VO2 max. The exercise tests were performed after intravenous administration of 2 mg dihydroergostin (DE-145) as well as after saline as control, b...

this paper extends endogenous growth models through augmenting it with government budget and oil revenues as well as the effect of public investment efficiency on long run growth of private and government consumption and import for an oil producing economy. based on the extracted model, the optimal growth rate of government current expenditure (or consumption) has a positive relation with the e...

We examine the effect of interest rate policies on an agent’s consumption and savings when her income is fluctuating. In each period a long-lived agent decides how much to save (i.e., invest in a risk-free bond) and how much to consume while her income is uncertain and depends on the state of the economy. The central bank, on the other hand, fixes a policy, called an interest rate policy, which...
