Increased physical activity, higher educational attainment, and the use of mobility aid are associated with self-esteem in people with physical disabilities.

Background: High self-esteem can help people with disabilities overcome barriers and improve their mental health and well-being. This study sought to examine self-esteem levels among Saudis with physical disabilities based on socio-economic factors. It also aimed to determine the minimum weekly duration of physical activity performed by participants and examine its effects, along with those of other socio-economic factors, on participants' self-esteem.

Higher Sedentary Behaviors and Lower Levels of Specific Knowledge Are Risk Factors for Physical Activity-Related Injuries in Saudi Adolescents.

Encouraging physical activity (PA) for adolescents is necessary to achieve and maintain optimal health, but it may increase the risk of PA-related injuries. This study sought to assess the frequency, location, type, and severity of PA-related injuries in Saudi students aged 13 to 18 years and to identify associated risk factors. A total of 402 students, including 206 boys aged 15.

An Empirical Study of the Contribution of Total Quality Management to Occupational Safety and Health Performance in Saudi Organizations.

Working to ensure a safe and secure work environment for workers and employees has become an essential component of achieving organizational excellence in modern organizations. Occupational safety and health (OSH) programs help in attracting and retaining the workforce and human competencies, thus improving the operational and organizational performance of these organizations. Total quality management (TQM) is a management philosophy adopted by successful organizations to achieve sustainable business performance.

Lower fitness levels, higher fat-to-lean mass ratios, and lower cardiorespiratory endurance are more likely to affect the body mass index of Saudi children and adolescents.

Background: Several studies suggest that health-related physical fitness may play a prominent role in preventing obesity in children and adolescents.

Objectives: The present study examined fitness levels using five components of health-related fitness in Saudi students aged 10-17 years (fat-to-lean mass ratio, cardiorespiratory endurance, upper body strength and endurance, abdominal muscle strength and endurance, and flexibility). Subsequently, the association between BMI and a health-related fitness index (HR-PFI) based on the five fitness components was investigated.

Combined Pharmacophore Modeling, 3D-QSAR, Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics Study on Indolyl-aryl-sulfone Derivatives as New HIV1 Inhibitors.

The present study deals with the in silico of 45 indolyl-aryl-sulfones known as anti-HIV1. The data were collected from recent previously reported inhibitors and divided into a sub-set of 33 compounds as the training set and the remaining 12 compounds were kept in the test set. The selected pharmacophore-ADRRR-yielded a statistically significant 3D-QSAR model containing high confidence scores (R2 = 0.

Physical activity, sedentary behaviors, and breakfast eating as factors influencing BMI in Saudi students, aged 10 to 15 years.

Background: Eating less and moving more are the simplest and most common strategies to combat excessive weight. Several other lifestyle factors can also contribute to maintaining a healthy weight.

Objectives: The present study examined the effects of breakfast frequency, duration and quality of sleep, daily physical activity, sedentary behaviours, and school transportation on the BMI of Saudi students, aged 10-15 years.

Anthropometry, body composition, and athletic performance in specific field tests in Paralympic athletes with different disabilities.

Purpose: The structural appearance of each disabled athlete or the shape of their body, as determined by their individual genotype and influenced by the environment, considerably affects their technical and physical performance. This study sought to examine the morphological characteristics of elite track and field athletes with different disabilities, including their possible effects on physical and physiological performance.

Methods: A total of 66 male elite athletes with cerebral palsy (n = 12), upper arm amputation (n = 12), short stature (n = 20), or intellectual disability (n = 22) were included.

Aerobic training, resistance training, or their combination as a means to fight against excess weight and metabolic syndrome in obese students - which is the most effective modality? A randomized controlled trial.

This study aimed to determine the effects of either aerobic training (AT) or resistance training (RT) or both (A+RT) on obesity and its comorbidities in young adults. A total of 61 participants, aged 21.74 ± 1.

Crystal structure of {μ-1,2-bis-[(4-methyl-phenyl-sulfan-yl]-3-oxoprop-1-ene-1,3-di-yl-1:2κ : }dicarbon-yl-1κ -[μ-methyl-enebis(di-phenyl-phos-phane)-1:2κ :'](tri-phenyl-phosphane-2κ)iron-platinum(-), [(OC)Fe(μ-dppm){μ-C(=O)C(4-MeCHSCH)=CCHSCHMe-4}Pt(PPh)].

The title compound, [FePt(CHOS)(CHP)(CHP)(CO)], , [(OC)Fe(μ-dppm)(μ-C(=O)C(CHSCHMe-4)=CCHSCHMe-4)Pt(PPh)], represents the first example of a diphosphane-bridged heterobimetallic Fe-Pt dimetalla-cyclo-pentenone complex resulting from a bimetallic activation of metal-coordinated carbonyl ligand with an inter-nal alkyne, namely 1,4-bis-(-tolyl-thio)-but-2-yne. The bridging μ-C(=O)C(CHSCHMe-4)=CCHSCHMe-4 unit (stemming from a carbon-carbon coupling reaction between CO and the triple bond of the alkyne di-thio-ether) forms a five-membered dimetalla-cyclo-pentenone ring, in which the C=C bond is π-coordinated to the Fe center. The latter is connected to the Pt center through a short metal-metal bond of 2.

Effects of diet versus diet plus aerobic and resistance exercise on metabolic syndrome in obese young men.

Background: Diet and physical activity are the most commonly recommended strategies for preventing and treating metabolic syndrome (MetS). This randomized trial aims to examine the effectiveness of a weight reduction intervention based on caloric restriction, low-impact aerobics (LIA), and a resistance-training program in improving body composition, metabolic parameters and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors among obese students diagnosed with MetS.

Methods: In all, 23 male participants, aged 19-24 years, were randomly introduced to a dieting program (the diet group, or DG = 09) or to dieting associated with a supervised physical training program (the diet plus training group, or DTG = 14).

Multidisciplinary approach to obesity: Aerobic or resistance physical exercise?

Background: An integrated treatment based on dieting, physical training and cognitive-behavioural psychotherapy is an effective tool to reduce obesity and its consequences. However, the feasibility of this approach is problematic. This study aims to compare two multidisciplinary programs used to improve weight loss.

Crystal structure of tricarbon-yl(μ-di-phenyl-phosphido-κ(2) P:P)(methyl-diphenyl-silyl-κSi)bis(tri-phenyl-phosphane-κP)iron(II)platinum(0)(Fe-Pt).

The title compound, [FePt(C12H10P)(C13H13Si)(C18H15P)2(CO)3]·0.5CH2Cl2, represents an example of a phosphido-bridged heterobimetallic silyl complex; these are inter-esting precursors for the coordination and activation of small unsaturated organic mol-ecules. The μ2-PPh2 ligand spans the iron and platinum atoms, which are connected via a metal-metal bond of 2.
