The effects of carbohydrate-protein supplementation on endurance exercise performance, recovery, and training adaptation
Get PDFtextRecent research suggests that adding protein (PRO) to a carbohydrate (CHO) supplement can have substantial benefits for endurance exercise performance and recovery beyond that of CHO alone. CHO+PRO supplements are often commercially available formulations consisting of carbohydrates (dextrose, maltodextrin) and whey protein. The effects of a supplement containing moderate protein and a low-CHO mixture on endurance performance has not been investigated. Also, the effects of CHO+PRO supplementation in the form of a natural food, flavored milk, on measures of recovery from acute endurance exercise, as well as on chronic aerobic exercise training adaptations, have not been characterized. Therefore, in this series of four studies, the effects of CHO+PRO supplementation on the following areas of endurance exercise performance, recovery, and adaptation are investigated: acute endurance exercise performance, inflammatory and muscle damage markers, muscle glycogen resynthesis, activation of signaling proteins involved in the initiation of protein synthesis and degradation, subsequent endurance exercise performance, and chronic aerobic training adaptations (maximal oxygen consumption, oxidative enzyme activity, body composition, immune cell levels, and inflammatory markers). Study 1 demonstrated that a supplement containing a low-CHO mixture plus moderate protein significantly improved aerobic endurance when cycling at or below the ventilatory threshold, despite containing 50% less CHO and 30% fewer calories relative to a higher CHO beverage. Study 2 demonstrated that CHO+PRO supplementation in the form of chocolate milk (CM) is an effective post-exercise supplement that can improve subsequent performance and provide a greater intracellular signaling stimulus for protein synthesis compared to CHO and placebo. Study 3 found that post-exercise CM supplementation during 4.5 wks of aerobic exercise training improves the magnitude of cardiovascular adaptations more effectively than isocaloric CHO or placebo, while the fourth study demonstrated that post-exercise CM supplementation during 4.5 wks of aerobic training improves body composition more effectively than isocaloric CHO or placebo. The fourth study also demonstrated that 4.5 wks of training does not appear to perturb resting immune cell concentrations or markers of inflammation and muscle damage. Taken together, the results of this research series suggest that CHO+PRO supplementation extends endurance performance, improves recovery, and increases training adaptations more effectively than CHO or placebo.Kinesiology and Health Educatio
Copyright and media releases: Implications for professional use: Media release: Who owns it?
No full textFerguson, AE ORCiD: 0000-0002-8734-5735Although words themselves cannot be owned it is when they become a compilation of words authors would normally become the owner, author and therefore retain copyright over the work. Currently this does not relate to the media release produced by public relations professionals. While it is not the purpose of this book to simplify the media release authorship, ownership and copyright issue because it is a complex one, it is the intention of this book to raise and discuss the complex relationship that exists between the media release, public relations practitioners and journalists because it is exists outside the normal boundaries of ownership, authorship and copyright.The automatic assumption of authorship, ownership and copyright being waived and therefore assigned to another person(s) may have long term ramifications that have not yet been realized
Haemorrhagic kidney syndrome of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L.
No full textThis report describes a new syndrome affecting farmed Atlantic salmon on the Canadian east coast that has resulted in increased morbidity and mortality in affected stocks. The major pathological findings are apparent only microscopically and include renal interstitial haemorrhage and acute tubular necrosis and tubular casting. As a result, the disease has become known as haemorrhagic kidney syndrome (HKS). Affected fish are lethargic and anorectic, and lark external lesions. Clinically, HKS fish are anaemic, hypoproteinaemic and hyperosmolalic, with increased serum concentrations of sodium and chloride. At necropsy, internal changes ranged from apparently normal to include one or several of the following: swelling and/or patchy reddening of the kidney, pale gills, exophthalmos, serosanguinous ascites, darkening of the posterior intestine and splenomegaly. Ultrastructurally, viral inclusions were found in the cytoplasm of erythrocytes of HKS fish, and there were unusual electron-dense inclusions within the tips of renal tubular microvilli of HKS fish. The significance and relevance of the ultrastructural findings to HKS are unknown. Virus isolation was attempted using CHSE, RTG-2, FH-10, BE and EPC cell lines; no virus was isolated. Bacteriological analysis failed to reveal significant pathogens. Analysis of tissues for heavy metals and pesticides was negative. Assays for clostridial toxins, lipopolysaccharide and verotoxins were negative. The aetiology of HKS remains unresolved.PT: J; CR: AHNE W, 1989, VIRUSES LOWER VERTEB, V3 ARMSTRONG R, 1993, CAN VET J, V34, P312 AUSTIN B, 1993, BACTERIAL FISH PATHO BOVO G, 1995, DIS AQUAT ORGAN, V21, P115 CONFER AW, 1995, THOMSONS SPECIAL VET, P209 DANNEVIG BH, 1995, J GEN VIROL, V76, P1353 EATON WD, 1993, J GEN VIROL, V74, P2299 EVENSEN O, 1991, RES VET SCI, V51, P215 FERGUSON HW, 1982, VET PATHOL, V19, P687 FOOTT JS, 1992, J AQUAT ANIM HEALTH, V4, P306 HETRICK FM, 1993, ANN REV FISH DIS, V3, P187 KIMURA T, 1986, DIS AQUAT ORGAN, V1, P209 KIMURA T, 1989, VIRUSES LOWER VERTEB, V3 KOSKI P, 1992, BULL EUR ASSN FISH P, V12, P177 LAMAS J, 1995, J FISH DIS, V18, P425 MEIER W, 1994, ANN REV FISH DIS, V4, P359 NOUGAYREDE P, 1992, B EUROPEAN ASS FISH, V12, P5 PINTO RA, 1992, J AQUATIC ANIMAL HLT, V4, P292 ROBERTS RJ, 1994, RECENT ADV AQUACULTU, V5 SANO T, 1995, AQUACULTURE, V132, P43 SMITH LS, 1975, MISCELLANEOUS SPECIA, V27 SPEILBERG L, 1995, VET PATHOL, V32, P466 THOESEN JC, 1994, BLUE BOOK SUGGESTED TISHER CC, 1989, RENAL PATHOLOGY CLIN, V1 WADDELL TE, 1996, INFECT IMMUN, V64, P1714 WOLF K, 1988, FISH VIRUSES FISH VI WOOD CM, 1995, PHYSL ECOLOGY PACIFI; NR: 27; TC: 29; J9: J FISH DISEASES; PG: 11; GA: 170XZSource type: Electronic(1

No full textWe sought to determine if there are any differences in changes of student attitudes before and after 3.5-week and 7-week condensed flipped Organic Chemistry I courses using the Attitude toward the Subject of Chemistry Inventory Version 2 (ASCIv2). We also compared student performance for both course lengths as measured by exam and overall course grades. The results indicate that student attitudes started and remained more negative in a 3.5-week course than the 7-week course, even though exam and course grade averages are not significantly different between the formats. </p
