Type 2 diabetes mellitus alters cardiac mitochondrial content and function in a non-obese mice model
(Academia Brasileira de Ciencias, 2020)
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with an increase of premature appearance of several disorders such as cardiac complications. Thus, we test the hypothesis that a combination of a high fat diet (HFD) and low ...
The Anthropocene: Comparing Its Meaning in Geology (Chronostratigraphy) with Conceptual Approaches Arising in Other Disciplines
(American Geophysical Union, 2021-03)
The term Anthropocene initially emerged from the Earth System science community in the early 2000s, denoting a concept that the Holocene Epoch has terminated as a consequence of human activities. First associated with the ...
Data-driven nonparametric Li-ion battery ageing model aiming at learningfrom real operation data – Part A: Storage operation
(Elsevier, 2020-08)
Conventional Li-ion battery ageing models, such as electrochemical, semi-empirical and empirical models, require a significant amount of time and experimental resources to provide accurate predictions under realistic ...
Photoluminescent Coordination Polymers Based on Group 12 Metals and 1H-Indazole-6-Carboxylic Acid
(MDPI, 2021-03-22)
Two new coordination polymers (CPs) based on Zn(II) and Cd(II) and 1H-indazole-6-carboxylic acid (H2L) of general formulae [Zn(L)(H2O)]n (1) and [Cd2(HL)4]n (2) have been synthesized and fully characterized by elemental ...
The 360° Performance System in Team Sports: Is It Time to Design a “Personalized Jacket” for Team Sports Players?
(MDPI, 2021-03-11)
Elite performance in team sports attracts the attention of the general public. In particular, the best players became incredibly skilled and physically powerful, which is a fact that potentiates the delivery of a product ...
Core Temperature Response During the Marathon Portion of the Ironman World Championship (Kona-Hawaii)
(Frontiers Media, 2019-12-03)
The Ironman triathlon consists of a 3.8 km swim, 180 km bike, and 42.195 km run. Thermoregulation responses play an important role in performance optimization and injury prevention. Factors such as environmental conditions ...
Indirect Assessment of Skeletal Muscle Glycogen Content in Professional Soccer Players before and after a Match through a Non-Invasive Ultrasound Technology
(MDPI, 2020-04-01)
Skeletal muscle glycogen (SMG) stores in highly glycolytic activities regulate muscle contraction by controlling calcium release and uptake from sarcoplasmic reticulum, which could affect muscle contraction. Historically, ...
What Are We Doing Wrong When Athletes Report Higher Levels of Fatigue From Traveling Than From Training or Competition?
(Frontiers Media, 2020-02-21)
Whole-Genome Re-Sequencing Data to Infer Historical Demography and Speciation Processes in Land Snails: the Study of Two Candidula Sister Species
(The Royal Society, 2021-05-24)
Despite the global biodiversity of terrestrial gastropods and their ecological and economic importance, the genomic basis of ecological adaptation and speciation in land snail taxa is still largely unknown. Here, we combined ...
Glyceryl trinitrate in first-episode psychosis unmedicated with antipsychotics: A randomised controlled pilot study
(Sage, 2020-08)
There is a pressing need for new classes of treatment for psychosis. A key therapeutic target for novel compounds is the NMDA receptor, which may be modulated by nitric oxide donors such as sodium nitroprusside (SNP). ...
