The purpose of this study was to monitor coronary responses
occurring in the S-T segment of an electrocardiogram before, during
and after exercise following a "standard" carbohydrate-loading schedule with varied vitamin B-6 supplementation. The study was conducted
using four college-aged males who had been training a minimum of two
years...
A study was undertaken to determine the prevalence of virus infection in lambs undergoing respiratory tract disease (RTD). The investigation was divided into three study groups and consisted of lambs which were 4 to 5 months of age. In the first group (N=200), paired serum samples were taken from lambs...
One hundred and fourty-one lambs showing signs of pneumonia
and/or enteritis from four different flocks in western Oregon were
sampled for virus isolation. Two ovine adenoviruses, antigenically
distinct from each other and from bovine adenoviruses, were
isolated from the nasal mucosa and feces of two lambs. The lambs
were showing...
In October 1977, a study was undertaken to determine the role of bovine adenovirus type 3 in enzootic pneumonia of calves, and the efficacy of using a vaccine for prevention of disease. Bovine adenovirus type 3 was isolated from the herd under study in the previous year. Calves in the...
With the neuromuscular performance deficit typically associated with aging, the maximum rate of response of the individual is diminished with advancing age. Physical activity has recently been examined as a possible factor delaying the aging process as it relates to neuromuscular performance. This investigation examined folk dancing as a potential...
The Aleutian tern (Onychoprion aleuticus) is a species of high conservation concern in Alaska due to large declines at known breeding locations since the 1960s. Due to the small population size and ephemeral behavior of this species on the nesting grounds, there is little basic biological information available and data...
Ankle injuries account for 10-20% of time loss injuries in sports
with almost 85% of these injuries being sprains, the majority of
which occur to the lateral ligamentous complex. With statistics such
as these it becomes important that the Athletic Trainer establish a
method for effective and efficient means to...
Forty-five young adult males were given 30 trials of Isometric
knee extension and 30 trials of isometric knee flexion. Each trial
consisted of a maximum of three second exertion followed by a 10
second intertrial rest interval. Subjects were ranked on the basis
of the mean of the first three...
The purpose of this study was: 1) to compare the
change in QT interval values before, during, and after
exercise following carbohydrate depletion and loading, and
2) to assess the change following vitamin B-6 supplementation.
ECG monitoring devices and bicycle ergometers were
used to collect ECG tracings and control the...
