The effects of icing as a recovery method between two bouts of exercise
No full textPURPOSE: The purpose of the study was to examine whether ice pack application, following a short bout of exercise, would improve subsequent running-performance 5-6 hours later. METHODS: Fifteen college athletes were split into experimental and control groups, both completed a dynamic warm-up and then a timed ¾ mile run. After finishing the run, all the participants performed a static stretch. The experimental group then iced both legs (calves and quadriceps) for 15 min. All participants returned 5-6 hours later and performed the dynamic warm-up, a timed ¾ mile run, and static stretch again. Participants were surveyed for their beliefs about recovery methods. RESULTS: Both the icing and control groups showed significant improvement in run time in the second bout of running. We found that icing did not impact run performance time. Interestingly, survey results showed that most participants believed that ice packs would be an effective recovery method. This eliminates the possibility of a placebo effect in our run time results. CONCLUSION: We conclude that ice pack cooling did not have a significant effect on a second bout of running performed later in the day

To Go With or Against the Flow?
Get PDFWhile still in the midst of their study abroad experiences, students at Linfield University write reflective essays. Their essays address issues of cultural similarity and difference, compare lifestyles, mores, norms, and habits between their host countries and home, and examine changes in perceptions about their host countries and the United States. In this essay, Alexis Matsunage describes observations during their study abroad program at the Kanto Gakuin University in Yokohama, Japan

Progress Towards Synthesis of Azaindole Derivatives of Arp2/3 Complex Inhibitor CK-666
Get PDFThe primary objective of this research is synthesize a derivative of 2-methyl-7-azaindole and to determine its potency of inhibition of the Actin Related Protein (Arp 2/3) complex. A potent Arp2/3 inhibitor may be of interest in clinical anti-cancer and anti-tumor applications. Additionally, an Arp2/3 inhibitor with nanomolar potency could be used to advance basic actin dynamics research. Herein the organic synthetic efforts towards the 2-methyl-7-azaindole derivative of the known Arp2/3 inhibitor CK-666 are described. Spectroscopy as it informs our continuing efforts to synthesize our target is discussed. Further synthesis plans are discussed as they relate to successfully reaching our target compound
Navigating a Social World Behind Masks: How the COVID-19 Pandemic Has Affected the Autism Spectrum Disorder Population as Seen in Research Literature
No full textAs a result of the pandemic, social interactions have had to change. Individuals have had to change the way they navigate their social world and their relationships within these new structural changes, and the discourse surrounding autism spectrum disorder has adapted in a way that now places more emphasis on mental health, while continuing to prioritize intervention and support as key themes in research literature, changing the way autism spectrum disorder is framed.
As expected, a change in discourse was seen in autism literature from before and after the pandemic; autism literature post-pandemic onset referenced mental health at a higher rate than pre-pandemic, and the continued prevalence of the theme intervention emphasizes the importance of social support for those impacted by an autism diagnosis. This change in discursive practices in autism literature has resulted in a new framing of autism spectrum disorder
