Abstract Paleokarst breccias are a common feature of sedimentary rift basins. The Billefjorden Trough in the High Arctic archipelago Svalbard is an example such rift. Here Carboniferous stratigraphy exhibits intervals paleokarst formed by gypsum dissolution. In this study we integrate digital outcrop models (DOMs) with 2D ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey to extrapolate external irregular g...

Serum creatine kinase (CK) activity reflects muscle membrane disruption. Oestrogen has antioxidant and membrane stabilising properties, yet no study has compared the CK and muscle soreness (DOMS) response to unaccustomed exercise between genders when all menstrual phases are represented in women. Fifteen eumenorrhoeic women (early follicular, EF (n = 5); late follicular, LF (n = 5); mid-luteal,...

The aim was to investigate the effects of far infrared (FIR) ray emitting clothes on indirect markers of exercise-induced muscle damage and physical performance recovery after a plyometric bout applied to soccer players. Twenty-one male players (18.9±0.6 years; 70.8±5.01 kg; 178.3±0.06 cm) performed 100 drop-jumps. Six hours after the bout, athletes put on FIR clothes (FIR) (density of 225 g·m(...

Liquid crystalline thermosetting epoxy, 4,4'-diglycidyloxy-α-methylstilbene (DOMS) was synthesized and characterized with cross-polarized optical microscopy (POM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Carbon nanotube (CNT) or graphene reinforced DOMS composites were fabricated by melt blending with sulfanilamide (SAA) as a curing agent. To investigate the thermal degradation behavior, th...

In this paper x, X, X1, X2 are sets. Let Y be a functional set. The functor DOMS(Y ) is defined by: (Def. 1) DOMS(Y ) = ⋃ {dom f : f ranges over elements of Y }. Let us consider X. We say that X is complex-functions-membered if and only if: (Def. 2) If x ∈ X, then x is a complex-valued function. Let us consider X. We say that X is extended-real-functions-membered if and only if: (Def. 3) If x ∈...

Recent advancements in dental technology, such as magnification devices like loupes and surgical microscopes, have greatly improved the accuracy quality of root canal treatments. Dental operating microscopes (DOMs) become widely accepted endodontics, providing enhanced visualization facilitating precise identification anatomical landmarks, orifices, pulp remnants. The increased illumination off...

Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is a disorder in the form of that occurs as result unusual exercise caused by an inflammatory response. DOMS often experienced all individuals who do too much physical activity after long period inactivity. can be anyone does non-routine sports activities. This study aims to find out about effect ice massage and passive stretching on gatrocnemius muscle. The...

This study compared the effects of frequency specific microcurrent (FSM) therapy versus sham therapy in delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) in order to determine whether specific frequencies on two channels would produce better results than single channel single frequency microcurrent therapy which has been shown to be ineffective as compared to sham treatment in DOMS. 18 male and 17 female he...

[Purpose] This study examined the effect of the distance between the two electrodes on delayed onset muscle soreness during microcurrent therapy. [Methods] In this study 24 healthy women who hadn't exercised regularly for six months were selected and randomly divided into two groups. Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) was induced and experimental Group 1 were given microcurrent treatment with...

Purpose: To quantify the mean daily changes in training and match load and any parallel changes in indicators of morning-measured fatigue across in-season training weeks in elite soccer players. Methods: Following each training session and match, ratings of perceived exertion (s-RPE) were recorded to calculate overall session load (RPE-TL) in 29 English Premier League players from the same team...
