Low adherence to prescribed time under tension in elastic band resistance training in older adults. An observational study.

Unlabelled: Time under tension (TUT) is an important variable in resistance training (RT). A stretch sensor (Bandcizer) attached to an elastic band during RT can quantify TUT reliably.

Objective: To explore adherence to prescribed TUT for elastic band RT with the Bandcizer during supervised and unsupervised RT at different time points.

Quantitative Assessment of Body Composition in Cirrhosis.

Changes in body composition often accompany the progression of liver disease and seem to be an aggravating pathophysiological factor. Specifically, accelerated loss of skeletal muscle mass, lower muscle quality, and changes in body fat distribution have been shown to be associated with poor clinical outcomes. The aim of the present narrative review was to discuss the current status and relevance of commonly applied, advanced, non-invasive methods to quantify skeletal muscle mass, muscle fat infiltration-i.

Coexisting with wildfire: strengthening collective capacity by changing the status quo.

This article is the fuller written version of the invited closing plenary given by the author at the . The article provides a consideration of our capacity to cope, care, and coexist in a fiery world from a social and structural point of view. It focuses on privilege as the root cause of a long and troublesome history within the wildfire profession of not valuing all generational knowledge equally, not treating all cultures with the same respect, not embracing diversity and inclusion, and not affording the same status to all disciplines and voices.

Early life factors and oral microbial signatures define the risk of caries in a Swedish cohort of preschool children.

The oral cavity harbors complex communities comprising bacteria, archaea, fungi, protozoa, and viruses. The oral microbiota is establish at birth and develops further during childhood, with early life factors such as birth mode, feeding practices, and oral hygiene, reported to influence this development and the susceptibility to caries. We here analyzed the oral bacterial composition in saliva of 260 Swedish children at two, three and five years of age using 16S rRNA gene profiling to examine its relation to environmental factors and caries development at five years of age.
