The effect of a decaffeinated green tea extract formula on fat oxidation, body composition and exercise performance
(2015-01-21)The cardio-metabolic and antioxidant health benefits of caffeinated green tea (GT) relate to its catechin polyphenol content. Less is known about decaffeinated extracts, particularly in combination with exercise. The aim ... -
The effect of a heart failure training intervention assessed via clinical simulation
(2011)Prehospital differential diagnosis of heart failure (HF) by paramedics is sometimes unreliable (Schaider et al, 1995) and may lead to therapeutic interventions being withheld (Jenkinson et al, 2008) or the initiation of ... -
Effect of a high-density current pulse on the relaxation of shear stresses
(2008)The procedure and several results of experimental studies on the high-density current pulse-induced relaxation of shear stresses are presented. A significant nonthermal current effect on shear strain kinetics has been ... -
The effect of a hinged ankle-foot orthosis on hemiplegic gait: four single case studies
(1998)This study used a single-case design to assess the effect of a hinged ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) on four hemiplegic subjects, and elicited their views of the AFO. The gait parameters measured were: velocity, stride length, ... -
Effect of a novel penetration enhancer on the ungual permeation of two antifungal agents
(2010-06)Objectives The aim of this study was to demonstrate the effect of a novel permeation enhancer system using two existing marketed nail lacquers and the delivery of terbinafine through human nail samples in vitro. Methods ... -
Effect of a pulsed electromagnetic field on stress relaxation in concentrator-containing flat specimens
(2012)Experimental results of evaluating the pulsed electromagnetic field effect on tensile stress relaxation in specimens with hole a concentrator are presented. The pulsed electromagnetic field is shown to induce local inelastic ... -
The effect of a targeted clinical toxicology training intervention on the diagnostic accuracy and management of paramedics exposed to clinical simulation: a repeated measures study
(2016)Background – As first contact practitioners in a variety of medical emergencies, paramedics are frequently required to manage a number of toxicological emergencies. Although mortality from poisonings is low, timely and ... -
Effect of abrasion induced by a rotating brush on the skin permeation of solutes with varying physicochemical properties
(2008-03)A transient reduction in the barrier nature of the skin can be a pre-requisite for successful (trans)dermal delivery of some drugs. The aim of this present study was to investigate and effect of a dermal abrading "rotating ... -
The effect of acute vs chronic magnesium supplementation on exercise and recovery on resistance exercise, blood pressure and total peripheral resistance on normotensive adults
(2015-04-24)Background: Magnesium supplementation has previously shown reductions in blood pressure of up to 12 mmHg. A positive relationship between magnesium supplementation and performance gains in resistance exercise has also been ... -
The effect of aerodynamic particle size and solid state disorder on salmeterol xinafoate deposition from pressurised metered dose and dry powder inhaler formulations
(2013-08)The production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) generally consists of crystallisation followed by a comminution process which provides limited control over particle size and energises particle surfaces. Both ... -
The effect of age and sex on peak oxygen uptake during upper and lower body exercise: A systematic review
(2024-04-13)Background Large scale population norms for peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) during cycle ergometry (CE) have been published for men and women across a wide range of ages. Although upper body functional capacity has an important ... -
The Effect of Agenda for Change on the Career Progression of the Radiographic Workforce 2009

The effect of airborne dust on astronomical polarization measurements
(2008-05-11)In the past, it has generally been assumed that polarization observations made with ground-based telescopes are unaffected by the passage of light through the Earth's atmosphere. Here, we report observations with a new ... -
The effect of alterations of schizophrenia-associated genes on gamma band auditory steadystate responses
(2019-11-14)Recent GWAS have identified more than 100 risk genes for schizophrenia (SCZ) [1]. Many of these encode ion channels. While their function has been well characterized, the contributions of common variation in these channels ... -
The effect of alterations of schizophrenia-associated genes on gamma band oscillations
(2022-04-28)Abnormalities in the synchronized oscillatory activity of neurons in general and, specifically in the gamma band, might play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. While these changes in oscillatory activity ... -
Effect of Alternating Magnetic Field on the Fatigue Behaviour of EN8 Steel and 2014-T6 Aluminium Alloy
(2019-09-04)The application of an alternating magnetic field (0.54 T) was observed to lead to an improvement in the fatigue endurance and an increase in Vickers microhardness and tensile strength of both EN8 steel and AA2014-T6 alloy. ... -
The effect of an 8-week treatment program using a novel foot neuromuscular electrical stimulator on physical function, leg pain, leg symptoms, and leg blood flow in community-dwelling older adults: a randomized sham-controlled trial
(2022-10-14)Background: Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is an established therapy that has been widely used for many decades to improve circulation in the legs. However, studies using NMES devices in an elderly, ambulant, ... -
Effect of an antimuscarinic drug on the plasma pepsinogen activity of sheep infected with Ostertagia circumcincta
(1989)The antimuscarinic drug atropine caused a marked fall in plasma pepsinogen values of sheep with burdens of Ostertagia circumcincta and this response was greater in animals which had higher plasma pepsinogen values before ...
