Relationship Between Body Mass Index With Dietary Fiber Intake And Skinfolds-differences Among Bodybuilders Who Train During Morning And Nocturne Period [relación Entre El índice De Masa Corporal Con La Ingesta De Fibra Dietética Y Pliegues De La Piel; Las Diferencias Entre Los Culturistas Que Se Entrenan Durante El Período De La Mañana Y Nocturno]
No full textBackground: The prevalence of overweight individuals has increased in recent years. Moreover, the importance of a healthy diet is associated with the practice of physical activity and attempt to verify the achievement of physical exercise influences on food choice. However, it relationship between food intake and physical activity have not been studied. Aim: To evaluate if the period in which the trainings are conducted, morning and nocturne, interfere qualitatively and quantitatively in food consumption as well as verify possible associations between anthropometric profiles and dietary habits. Methods: We collected data from 33 adult volunteers, between men and women, practitioners of bodybuilding. Results: A total of 33 volunteers were interviewed (18 (54.5%) were men and 15 (45.5%) were women). Regarding anthropometric data, it turns out that that the volunteers of the two periods had similar characteristics, differentiating only weight. The consumption of nutritional supplements was observed in 30.77% of the practitioners in the morning period vs. 35% for the nocturne. Considering macronutrient intake, there was a significant difference in the consumption of protein between the periods. The consumption during nocturne period was greater (126 ± 5% of the daily requirement) than the morning period (115.7 ± 2%). As for micro-nutrients, calcium intake was greater among men when compared to women. There was a positive correlation between the BMI, and arm circumference for practitioners of the morning period. Conclusion: This study show that the practitioners who train in the morning have quietly better eating habits than those in the nocturne period, however both are inappropriate.273929935Mendonça, C.P., Anjos, L.A., Aspectos das práticas alimentares e da atividade física como determinantes do crescimento do sobrepeso/obesidade no Brasil (2004) Cad Saúde Publica, 20 (3), pp. 689-709Pimentel, G.D., Mota, J.F., Oyama, L.M., Oxintomodulina e obesidade (2009) Rev Nutr, 22 (5), pp. 727-737Pimentel, G.D., Arimura, S.T., de Moura, B.M., Silva, M.E., de Sousa, M.V., Short-term nutritional counseling reduces body mass index, waist circumference, triceps skinfold and triglycerides in women with metabolic syndrome (2010) Diabetol Metab Syndr, 2 (13), p. 10Pimentel, G.D., Lira, F.S., Rosa, J.C., Oliveira, J.L., Losinskas-Hachul, A.C., Souza, G.I., Intake of trans fatty acids during gestation and lactation leads to hypothalamic inflammation via TLR4/NF Bp65 signaling in adult offspring (2011) J Nutr Biochem, 23 (3), pp. 265-271Pimentel, G.D., Zemdegs, J.C., Foods and nutrients modulates the release of anorexigenic gastrointestinal hormones (2010) Acta Med Port, 23 (5), pp. 891-900Wanderley, E.N., Ferreira, V.A., Obesidade: Uma perspectiva plural (2010) Ciênc Saúde Col, 15 (1), pp. 185-194Sigal, R.J., Kenny, G.P., Wasserman, D.H., Castaneda-Sceppa, C., White, R.D., Physical Activity/Exercise and Type 2 Diabetes: A consensus statement from the American Diabetes Associatio (2006) Diabetes Car, 29 (6), pp. 1433-1438Lira, F.S., Rosa, J.C., Pimentel, G.D., Souza, H.A., Caperuto, E.C., Carnevali Jr., L.C., Endotoxin levels correlate positively with a sedentary lifestyle and negatively with highly trained subjects (2010) Lipids Health Dis, 4 (9), p. 82Zemdegs, J.C.S., Corsi, L.B., Coelho, L.C., Pimentel, G.D., Hirai, A.T., Sachs, A., Lipid profile and cardiovascular risk factors among first-year Brazilian university students in São Paulo (2011) Nutr Hosp, 26 (3), pp. 553-559Lira, F.S., Yamashita, A.S., Rosa, J.C., Tavares, F.L., Caperuto, E., Carnevali, L.C., Hypothalamic inflammation is reversed by endurance training in anorectic-cachectic rats (2011) Nutr Metab (Lond), 8 (1), p. 60Programa Nacional de Promoção da Atividade Física "Agita Brasil": Atividade física e sua contribuição para a qualidade de vida (2002) Rev Saúde Pública, 36 (2), pp. 254-256. , Ministério da SaúdeBernardi, F., Cichelero, C., Vitolo, M.R., Comportamento de restrição alimentar e obesidade (2005) Rev Nutr, 18 (1), pp. 85-93(2009) J Am Diet Assoc, 109 (3), pp. 509-527. , American Canadian Association Dietitians of Canada.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
