Accuracy of the prediction equation for the determination of maximum heart rate in adults with Down syndrome
(Wiley, 2017)Background The purpose of the study was to determine if the regression formula developed for the prediction of maximum heart rate (HR) is valid for adults with Down syndrome (DS). Methods Thirty‐six adults with DS ... -
Aldosterone and renin in relation to surrogate measures of sympathetic activity: the SABPA study
(Clinics Cardive Publishing, 2019)Introduction: Hypertension, particularly in black populations, is often accompanied by augmented sympathetic nervous system activity and suppressed renin activity, indicative of possible blood pressure (BP) dysregulation. ... -
Cardiovascular responses in sedentary adult men, following a 12-week whole-body vibration training
(LAM Publications, 2017)Whole-body vibration training has become increasingly popular as a training modality in fitness and health centres hence some evidence also indicates that it can produce salutogenic outcomes in patients suffering metabolic ... -
Comparison of physiological parameters and anaesthesia specific observations during isoflurane, ketamine-xylazine or medetomidine-midazolam-fentanyl anaesthesia in male guinea pigs
(Public Library of Science, 2016)Guinea pigs (GPs) are difficult to anaesthetize successfully, the choices for anaesthesia are limited and physiological parameters are likely to be influenced substantially under anaesthesia. We implanted blood pressure ... -
The evaluation of endpoint variability and implications for study statistical power and sample size in conscious instrumented dogs
(Elsevier, 2018)Introduction The sensitivity of a given test to detect a treatment-induced effect in a variable of interest is intrinsically related to the variability of that variable observed without treatment and the number of ... -
Relationships between results of an internal and external match load determining method in male, singles badminton players
(Wolters Kluwer, 2019)The purpose of study was to determine relationships between results of an internal and external match load determining method. Twenty-one players who participated in selected badminton championships during the 2014/2015 ... -
Successful implantation of an abdominal aortic blood pressure transducer and radio-telemetry transmitter in guinea pigs: anaesthesia, analgesic management and surgical methods, and their influence on hemodynamic parameters and body temperature
(Elsevier, 2016)Introduction Guinea pigs (GPs) are a valuable cardiovascular pharmacology model. Implantation of a radio-telemetry system into GPs is, however, challenging and has been associated with a high failure rate in the past. We ... -
The use of GPS analysis to quantify the internal and external match demands of semi-elite level female soccer players during a tournament
(JSSM, 2019)The purpose of this study was to make use of global positioning system technology to quantify the internal and external match demands of sub-elite female soccer players. Secondly, the study aims to describe the magnitude ... -
Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test thresholds to determine positional internal match loads of semi-professional soccer players
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)The aim of this study was to use heart rates and Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery test level 1 (Yo-Yo IR1)-derived thresholds to determine the positional internal match loads of semi-professional soccer players. Players completed ...
