| Childhood muscular fitness and adult metabolic syndrome Posted: 23 Sep 2016 10:02 PM PDT About 20-25 percent of adults have the metabolic syndrome and have increased risk of developing both cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. In a new longitudinal study, investigators examined associations between childhood muscular fitness (strength, endurance, and power) and metabolic syndrome -- the latter assessed once they reached adulthood. |
| Does physical activity lower the risk of bacterial infections? Posted: 23 Sep 2016 10:02 PM PDT The risk of viral infections is known to be affected by physical activity, but little information is available regarding the more serious infections caused by bacteria. In a new study, investigators examined the relationship between leisure-time physical activity and suspected bacterial infections during a one-year follow up. |
| Yoga may not count toward 30 minutes of daily physical activity, but may have other benefits Posted: 23 Sep 2016 10:02 PM PDT Hatha yoga is an increasingly popular form of physical activity and meditative practice in the U.S. It is important to understand the calorie cost and intensity of yoga in relation to the national physical activity guidelines, which generally encourage 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity on most days of the week. |
| Supporting employees to stand up, sit less and move more Posted: 23 Sep 2016 10:01 PM PDT Employers can implement an intervention to substantially reduce the sitting time of office workers both during work hours and across the day. |
| Team compares effectiveness of four PD-L1 tests Posted: 23 Sep 2016 12:24 PM PDT In a recent study, a research team compared the performance of the four available PD-L1 assay tests. They found that one of the assays failed to reveal comparable levels of PD-L1, a tumor-promoting protein, while three others revealed comparable levels. |
| Apple, lettuce can remedy garlic breath Posted: 23 Sep 2016 05:38 AM PDT Garlic -- consumers either love or hate the taste, but one thing is for certain, no one likes it when the scent of it sticks around on their breath. Now, garlic lovers may have a new solution to their halitosis problem. A study has found that eating raw apple or lettuce may help reduce garlic breath. |
| Ouch! Avoiding failure leads to missed opportunities for children with ADHD Posted: 23 Sep 2016 05:35 AM PDT Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are potentially more exposed to reproaches than typically developing children, explain researchers. A behavioral experiment on reward and punishment highlights the cumulative effect of punishment in children with ADHD. |
