Associations Between Fundamental Movement Skills, Muscular Fitness, Self-Perception and Physical Activity in Primary School Students.

Positive self-perception, physical activity and fundamental movement skill (FMS) proficiency are important aspects of a child's healthy development. The objective of this research was twofold: first, to explore associations between FMS, muscular fitness, self-perception and physical activity in school children; and second, to identify key predictors of FMS proficiency, athletic self-perception, physical activity levels in these participants and the differences between biological sexes. Primary school-aged children (n = 104; 53.

Genotype But Not Body Shape Predicts River Migration Success in Atlantic Salmon.

Migratory species typically undertake demanding long-distance journeys, across different habitat types during which they are exposed to multiple natural and anthropogenic stressors. Mortality during migration is typically high and may be human induced. Understanding individual responses to these selection pressures is rarely attempted because of the challenges of relating individual phenotypic and genetic data to migration success.

Imaging of electric-field-induced domain structure in DyMnO nanocrystals.

Multiferroic materials that exhibit interacting and coexisting properties, like ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism, possess significant potential in the development of novel technologies that can be controlled through the application of external fields. They also exhibit varying regions of polarity, known as domains, with the interfaces that separate the domains referred to as domain walls. In this study, using three-dimensional (3D) bragg coherent diffractive imaging (BCDI), we investigate the dynamics of multiferroic domain walls in a single hexagonal dysprosium manganite (h-DyMnO ) nanocrystal under varying applied electric field.

Lung parenchymal and pleural findings on computed tomography after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

Introduction: Lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are common after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), but the imaging characteristics of lung parenchymal and pleural abnormalities in these patients have not been well-characterized. We aimed to describe the incidence of lung parenchymal and pleural findings among patients who had return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and who underwent computed tomography (CT) of the chest after OHCA.

Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study conducted at two academic hospitals from 2014 to 2019.

Engineered Stop and Go T7 RNA Polymerases.

Precise, stringent, post-translational activation of enzymes is essential for many synthetic biology applications. For example, even a few intracellular molecules of unregulated T7 RNA polymerase can result in growth cessation in a bacterium. We sought to mimic the properties of natural enzymes, where activity is regulated ubiquitously by endogenous metabolites.
