Effect of jumping on growing bones : forces during different landings

Creator:: Black, Bradley A.
Abstract:: In order to develop a stimulating yet effective school-based program which elicits a positive bone growth response, we need to understand the forces acting on the bones of children during various high-impact activities. One activity found to promote bone growth is drop landings from a height. We determined whether there...

Inhibition of exercise-induced oxidative stress, inflammation and muscle damage by prior supplementation with the antioxidant vitamins E and C

Creator:: Mastaloudis, Angela
Abstract:: To determine if 6 weeks prior supplementation with vitamins E and C could alleviate exercise-induced DNA damage, prevent lipid peroxidation and inflammation, slow the rate of vitamin E utilization and/or attenuate muscle damage, 22 subjects (11 females: 11 males) were studied during a 50 km (32 mile) ultramarathon. Subjects were...

The effect of physical activity on sleep in children with autism

Creator:: Hagar, Kristine Ann
Abstract:: Sleep is an active process that affects an individual's daily functioning and physical and mental health. It is also beneficial for an individual's overall health and well being. Children with autism often have difficulty sleeping. One common complaint from parents of children with autism is that these children lack sufficient...

Bone gains in adolescent athletes and non-athletes

Creator:: Rinder, Todd Anthony
Abstract:: Discordance in bone mass between young adult swimmers and soccer players may be a direct result of differences in bone loading patterns that influence bone mineralization during growth. Our aim was to evaluate whether sports participation (soccer and swimming) had an independent effect on bone mass accrual at the hip...

Kinematic characteristics and energy expenditure during manual wheelchair propulsion: a comparison of two stroking techniques in non-experienced users

Creator:: Asahara, Sanae
Abstract:: Manual wheelchair propulsion is a physiologically stressful and biomechanically inefficient form of locomotion. The repetitious nature of propulsion puts wheelchair uses at high risk for developing upper extremity overuse injuries. Previous kinematic analysis has revealed that wheelchair users employ several distinct stroking techniques. One of the techniques, circular pattern (CP),...

Interactive vs. non-interactive electronically delivered motivational materials for physical activity initiation and enhancement among adults with physical disabilities

Creator:: Kosma, Maria
Abstract:: Participation in physical activity has important health benefits among individuals with disabilities, whereas inactive lifestyles may lead to secondary limiting health conditions. However, few people with disabilities regularly participate in the recommended amount of health-related physical activities. Low rate of participation may be related to low motivation due to interconnected...

A comparison of bone mineral density between active and nonactive men with spinal cord injuries

Creator:: Eddins, William C.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to compare the levels of bone mineral density (BMD) of the whole body (WB) and proximal femurs of physically active men with spinal cord injuries (SCI) to nonactive men with spinal cord injuries. Also, the lean muscle mass (LMM) of active men with SCI...
