Effect of Qi‐training on blood pressure, heart rate and respiration rateWiley - Tập 20 Số 3 - Trang 173-176 - 2000
Myeong Soo Lee, Byung Gi Kim, Hwa Jeong Huh, Hoon Ryu, Hosub Lee, Hun‐Taeg Chung
To examine the physiological effects of Korean traditional Qi‐training, we investigated the changes in blood pressure, heart and respiratory rates before, during and after ChunDoSunBup (CDSB) Qi‐training. Twelve normal healthy CDSB Qi‐trainees (19–37 years old; trained for 1·3 ± 0·2 years; 9 men and 3 women) v...... hiện toàn bộ
Cerebral haemodynamics during the Mueller manoeuvre in humansWiley - Tập 20 Số 4 - Trang 292-303 - 2000
Reinhard, Hetzel, Hinkov, Lücking
Voluntary negative intra‐thoracic pressure (Mueller manoeuvre) is known to reduce arterial blood pressure (ABP). To investigate changes in cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) during 15 s Mueller manoeuvres at –30 mmHg intra‐thoracic pressure, 27 young (aged 21–31 years, group A) and 11 older (52–64 years, group B) healthy adults were studied using transcranial Doppler and non‐invasive ABP ...... hiện toàn bộ
The effect of three electrotherapeutic modalities upon peripheral nerve conduction and mechanical pain thresholdWiley - Tập 21 Số 6 - Trang 704-711 - 2001
José Alves-Guerreiro, J. Gareth Noble, Andrea S. Lowe, Deirdre Walsh
The current study was designed to examine the neurophysiological and hypoalgesic effects of three types of electrical stimulation. Following approval by the University’s Research Ethical Committee, healthy volunteers (n=40; 20 males and 20 females; age 20–40 years; mean age 26·18 years) were recruited and screened for contraindications. Subjects were randomly all...... hiện toàn bộ
Leptin: physiology and pathophysiologyWiley - Tập 18 Số 5 - Trang 399-419 - 1998
Gema Frühbeck, Susan A. Jebb, Andrew M. Prentice
The identification and sequencing of the ob gene and its product, leptin, in late 1994 opened new insights in the study of the mechanisms controlling body weight and led to a surge of research activity. During this time, a considerable body of knowledge regarding leptin's actions has been accumulated and the field continues to expand rapidly. Currently there is p...... hiện toàn bộ
Digital X‐ray radiogrammetry: a new appendicular bone densitometric method with high precisionWiley - Tập 20 Số 5 - Trang 330-335 - 2000
Jan Trøst Jørgensen, P. B. Andersen, Anders Rosholm, Nina H. Bjarnason
The precision of any given method for measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) is important in relation to the interpretation of repeated measurements over time, e.g. to monitor the course of suspected osteoporosis or follow the effect of therapy. In the present study a new bone densitometer using the digital X‐ray radiogrammetry (DXR) method (Pronosco X‐posure System™) is investigated wi...... hiện toàn bộ
