Objective: To investigate neurocognitive effects of collegiate football players as
assessed by the Standardized Assessment of Concussion (SAC™) testing battery and a
self-reported concussion symptoms checklist.
Design and Setting: We used a one-way MANOVA to evaluate differences in
SAC™ test scores between intercollegiate football players with no history of concussion...
Thirty-three genotypes of red fescue were selected on the
basis of diverse origin, anthesis date, and type of spreading from a
space-planted introduction nursery.
Open-pollinated, single-cross, and top-cross progeny
nurseries were established into a randomized block with four replications,
20, 9, 8 entries, respectively, with nine plants per entry
on...
In order to properly model the temperature distribution of a nuclear fuel pin, the thermal conductivity
of the fuel must be known. For sphere pac fuel, the
modeling of the conductivity is complicated due to the
fact that the fuel is a collection of spheres in a random packed bed....
Function of the shoulder complex is highly dependent on the relationship between the scapula and the humerus. Etiologies for the disruption of the glenohumeral relationship include impaired or abnormal scapular function, motion, or position. The lateral scapular slide test (LSST) has been developed as a clinical tool to assess this...
In the last 30 years, birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L. )
has been recognized as a great potential source of forage. Since the
1930's, many studies have been reported in relation to birdsfoot
trefoil characteristics, including some directly related with the
association between seed yield and its components.
The purpose...
Ankle injuries comprise more than 15% of all sports injuries worldwide. The efficacy of the ankle taping for injury prevention has long been under scrutiny as numerous studies have shown that tape rapidly loses its ability to constrain ankle motion with exercise. Consequently, ankle braces (orthoses) are being used with...
