S. cerevisiae strain delta sodl lacking Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase and delta sodl delta sod2 mutant lacking both Cu,Zn-SOD and Mn-superoxide dismutase displayed strongly reduced aerobic growth on glucose, glycerol and lactate; delta sod2 deletion had no effect on aerobic growth on glucose and largely precluded growth on glycerol and lactate. The oxygen-induced growth defects and their alleviation by antioxidants depended on growth conditions, in particular on oxygen supply to cells. Under strong aeration, vitamins A and E had a low effect, 100 mumol/L quercetin alleviated the growth defects of all three mutants while beta-carotene had no growth-restoring effect. The superoxide producer paraquat inhibited the aerobic growth of all three mutants in a concentration-dependent manner. Low concentrations of antioxidants had no effect on paraquat toxicity while higher concentrations supported the toxic effect of the agent.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate long-term bone development in children with cerebral palsy (CP) using longitudinal measurements of total body less head bone mineral content (TBLH-BMC) and bone mineral density (TBLH-BMD).
Methods: A retrospective longitudinal analysis was performed on 109 children with CP who participated in a rehabilitation programme from 2006 to 2018. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans were performed at the beginning of the programme and repeated as clinically indicated.

Background: Precision nutrition-based methods develop tailored interventions and/or recommendations accounting for determinants of intra- and inter-individual variation in response to the same diet, compared to current 'one-size-fits-all' population-level approaches. Determinants may include genetics, current dietary habits and eating patterns, circadian rhythms, health status, gut microbiome, socioeconomic and psychosocial characteristics, and physical activity. In this systematic review, we examined the evidence base for the effect of interventions based on precision nutrition approaches on overweight and obesity in children and adolescents to help inform future research and global guidelines.

Introduction: Pediatric therapists in school-based practice can incorporate exercise promotion through adaptive cycling for children with disabilities who experience high levels of sedentary behavior and low levels of moderate to vigorous activity.
Methods: The impacts of an adaptive cycling pilot program for children with disabilities were investigated through a community-based participatory study. During an eight-week intervention, students had a goal of riding adaptive cycles three times a week for twenty minutes.

Functional cognition is relevant for athletic success and interdependent with physical exercise, yet despite repeatedly demonstrated inflammatory responses to physical training, there are no studies addressing the relationship between cognition and inflammation in athletes. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between cognitive performance and selected inflammatory, and further physiological biomarkers in elite athletes. Data from 350 elite athletes regarding cognitive performance (processing speed, selective attention, working memory, cognitive flexibility), systemic inflammatory markers, metabolic hormones, growth factors, tissue damage markers, and micronutrients (e.

Background: Women's football has experienced exponential growth over the last 10 years. Its popularity is associated with an increase in ACL injuries. They constitute a major current problem as they account for 43% of the injury burden during the sports season.
