Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesRELATIONSHIPS AMONG INDICATORS OF FITNESS, FATNESS AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE RISK FACTORS IN ADOLESCENTSRobert Malina, Stephen-Mark Cooper, John Young et al.In adults, fatness and low cardiorespiratory fitness are associated with a higher prevalence of chronic disease risk and mortality. The association between measures of physical fitness and fatness upon cardiovascular risk in youth, however, is less clear. The effects of adiposity and physical fitness upon cardiovascular disease risk factors in youth are receiving increasing attention but studies that have examined … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 7 Aug 2012 · 8,114 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn vitro Kinematics Semen Tolerance to Oxidative StressCyril Mpho PilaneInterpretation of semen kinematic parameters remain as a point of discussion in predicting semen quality following processes like cryopreservation. During cryopreservation, oxidative stress remains a challenge in promoting post-thaw semen quality. Comparison of livestock semen exposed to oxidative stress, in vitro, highlight various aspects of sperm cell movement, like kinematics, to predict their qualities. Sperm cell kinematics includes the measurement … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 13 Sep 2024 · 4,560 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Eye Tracking in Assessing Visual AttentionAyiei AyieiIn aviation, procedural errors persist despite pilots having the correct knowledge and ability to perform particular flight tasks. These errors can be attributed to diagnostic errors, inaccurate situational assessment and poor hazard awareness. Eye tracking has emerged as a technology that can be used to monitor pilot performance and provide insights into attentional distribution and the underlying decisional processes. The … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2020 · 7,424 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbout Boeing X-32Relly Victoria Virgil PetrescuThe Boeing X-32 is a demonstration jet designed for the Joint Strike Fighter contest. He lost the Lockheed Martin X-35 demonstrator, which was further developed in the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II. Boeing's competitive advantage has been to provide considerably lower costs of production and lifecycle by minimizing variations between different versions of the JSF. Therefore, the X-32 was designed … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 1 Apr 2019 · 9,960 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Probiotics on Coccidia, H. Contortus and Markers of Infection in GoatsKwaku Barima Gyenai, Mulumebet Worku, Mehrdad Tajkarimi, Salam IbrahimImmunostimulants can induce nonspecific resistance against parasites. The use of probiotics to control development of animal gastrointestinal parasites could help reduce the risks of infestation. In this study, we investigated the effects of probiotics administration on gastrointestinal parasites coccidia, H. contortus and markers of infection. A cocktail of probiotics mix including Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium breve, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus reuteri and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 29 Jul 2016 · 9,028 accessesView PDFCite
