Examine true inter-individual response differences (IIRD) as a result of resistance training on cardiorespiratory fitness in older adults. Data from a recent meta-analysis of 22 randomized controlled trials representing 552 men and women (292 resistance training, 260 control) ≥ 60 years of age were included. The primary outcome was cardiorespiratory fitness (VO) in mlkgmin. Using the inverse variance heterogeneity (IVhet) model, statistically significant treatment effect (resistance training minus control) increases in VO in mlkgmin were found (mean, 1.8, 95% CI, 0.4 to 3.3 mlkgmin, = 0.01; Q = 82.8, < 0.001; = 74.6%, 95% CI, 61.6 to 83.3%; =1.1). The 95% prediction interval (PI) was -0.8 to 4.5 mlkgmin. However, no statistically significant IIRD was observed (mean, 0.6, 95% CI, -1.1 to 1.4 mlkgmin; =1.5). The 95% PI was -1.8 to 2.0 mlkgmin. In conclusion, while progressive resistance training may increase VO in mlkgmin, a lack of true resistance-training-associated IIRD exist.

Background: has developed resistance to almost all the antimalarial drugs currently in use. This resistance has been and remains one of the greatest threats to the control and elimination of malaria. The use of molecular markers of resistance to monitor the emergence and spread of antimalarial drug-resistant parasite strains has proved highly effective.

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) remains incurable and its prevalence is increasing as the population ages. Although physical activity is considered a therapeutic treatment to slow the progression of the disease, it is considered to be an effective non-pharmacological adjuvant to medication to improve the symptom management.
Methods: The training program was offered for all the participants (N = 50) in three non-consecutive sessions per week for 60 minutes and a total duration of 12 to 16 months.

Many phosphor hosts, for example, nitrides and sulfides, often face challenges such as hydrolysis and oxidation, limiting their application in phosphor-converted white light-emitting diodes (pc-LEDs). In this study, we developed a highly humidity-resistant yellow-green-emitting phosphor BaSiNO:Ce (BSNO:Ce). The DFT calculations revealed a high Debye temperature (Θ = 1159 K), indicating a rigid crystal structure that contributes to the photoluminescence thermal quenching resistance of BSNO.

The recent outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has posed serious threats to global health systems. Although several directions have been put by the WHO for effective treatment, use of antibiotics, particularly ciprofloxacin, in suspected and acquired Covid-19 patients has raised an even more serious concern of antibiotic resistance. Ciprofloxacin has been reported to inhibit entry of SARS-CoV-2 into the host cells via interacting with the spike (S) protein.

Mannheimia haemolytica is one of the most common causative agents of bovine respiratory disease (BRD); however, antibiotic resistance in this species is increasing, making treatment more difficult. Integrative-conjugative elements (ICE), a subset of mobile genetic elements (MGE), encoding up to 100 genes have been reported in Mannheimia haemolytica genomes to confer multidrug resistance, including resistance to antibiotics commonly used in the treatment of BRD. However, the presence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) does not always agree with phenotypic resistance.
