Does perceived behavioral control mediate the association between perceptions of neighborhood walkability and moderate and vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activity?
Download2009
Spence, J. C., Doyle-Baker, T., McCormack, G. R., Berry, T. R.
Background: Research regarding the pathways via which the environment influences physical activity is limited. This study examined the role of perceived behavioral control (PBC) in mediating the relationship between perceptions of neighborhood walkability and frequency of moderate (MODPA) and...

Does The Timing of Exercise Affect Glucose Concentrations in Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes?
DownloadFall 2019
Background: It is well known that exercise can improve glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, the glycemic response to exercise is highly variable. One of the primary causes of variability in response to a single bout of exercise may be timing in relation to meals....

EASE-BE-FIT: Elder-Friendly Approaches to the Surgical Environment Bedside Reconditioning for Functional Improvements An Innovative Reconditioning Program for Elderly Emergency Abdominal Surgery Patients
DownloadSpring 2017
Introduction: Elderly individuals who are hospitalized due to emergency abdominal surgery spend on average over 80% of their recovery time in bed, resulting in early and rapid muscle loss. As these elderly individuals have a lower physiological reserve, the impact of muscle wasting on function...

Effect of heavy load carriage on respiratory mechanics and breathing pattern during graded exercise
DownloadFall 2010
The effect of heavy load carriage on pulmonary function at rest and on breathing pattern and lung volumes during graded exercise was studied. Fifteen males completed treadmill tests to measure VO2peak with and without a 25-kg pack. Subsequently, each subject completed short periods of treadmill...

Spring 2021
Lifestyle modifications that induce energy deficit, such as diet and physical activity are considered the cornerstone of weight management. The overall purpose of this research was to compare the effects of an acute nutritional intervention comprised of a high-protein (HP) diet replacement versus...

Effects of aerobic training on the host systemic milieu in patients with solid tumors: An exploratory correlative study
Download2015
Stevens, Robert D., Courneya, Kerry S., Inman, Brant A., Muehlbauer, Michael, Nelson, Erik R., Jasper, Jeff, Field, Catherine J., Jones, Lee W., Glass, Oliver K., Bain, James R., Broadwater, Gloria, Goruk, Susan, Hirschey, Matthew D., Mackey, John R.
background: Few studies have investigated the effects of exercise on modulation of host factors in cancer patients. We investigated the efficacy of chronic aerobic training on multiple host-related effector pathways in patients with solid tumours. patients and methods: Paired peripheral blood...

Fall 2018
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) has been dramatically increasing globally. Exercise is recommended as a first line treatment, along with diet and medications. The mechanisms by which exercise improves glycemic control are not fully understood but are typically attributed to changes in...

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), a devastating stroke caused by the rupture of vasculature in the brain, is responsible for <20% of all strokes, yet accounts for a disproportionately high burden of stroke related death and disability. The formation and degradation of the hematoma (blood clot)...
