Beneficial effects of imagination of successful action after an actual error on baseline performances in non-expert young tennis players.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of motor imagery (MI: imagining the success or failure of a forehand or backhand shot) training according to an internal visual modality centred on the movement and the target to be reached on tennis performance. 66 young (M = 12.1 years) players were randomly divided into three groups: control, failure MI or success MI, and performed 3 experimental phases.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage-associated brain injury and neurobehavioral deficits are reversed with synthetic adropin treatment through sustained Ser1179 phosphorylation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase.

Background: Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a life-threatening vascular condition without satisfactory treatment options. The secreted peptide adropin is highly expressed in the human brain and has neuroprotective effects in brain injury models, including actions involving the cerebrovasculature. Here, we report an endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)-dependent effect of synthetic adropin treatment that reverses the deleterious effects of SAH.

Colistin resistance in ESBL- and Carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates in Cambodia.

Objectives: Despite the critical importance of colistin as a last-resort antibiotic, limited studies have investigated colistin resistance in human infections in Cambodia. This study aimed to investigate the colistin resistance and its molecular determinants among Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)- and carbapenemase-producing (CP) Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) and Escherichia coli (E.

Increased frequencies of highly activated regulatory T cells skewed to a T helper 1-like phenotype with reduced suppressive capacity in dengue patients.

Unlabelled: The pathogenesis of dengue involves a complex interplay between the viral factor and the host immune response. A mismatch between the infecting serotype and the adaptive memory response is hypothesized to lead to exacerbated immune responses resulting in severe dengue. Here, we aim to define in detail the phenotype and function of different regulatory T cell (Treg) subsets and their association with disease severity in a cohort of acute dengue virus (DENV)-infected Cambodian children.

Influence of Motor Imagery Modality on First-Serve Performance in Tennis Players.

Motor imagery (MI) is frequently used in tennis players. This pilot study aimed to assess whether the MI modality and preference of skilled tennis players could influence their service performance when using MI before serving first balls. Twenty expert players (Mage = 18.
