Quatman-Yates CC, Lee A, Hugentobler JA, Kurowski BG, Myer GD, Riley MA.
PMID: 24377060
Int J Sports Phys Ther. 2013 Dec;8(6):741-8.

PURPOSE/BACKGROUND: Postural control assessments can provide a powerful means of detecting concussion-related neurophysiological abnormalities and are considered an important part of the concussion management processes. Studies with college athletes indicate that postural sway analyzed using complexity metrics may provide...

UNLABELLED: Common variations at the loci harboring the fat mass and obesity gene (FTO), MC4R, and TMEM18 are consistently reported as being associated with obesity and body mass index (BMI) especially in adult population. In order to confirm this...

Energy availability discriminates clinical menstrual status in exercising women.

Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition

Reed JL, De Souza MJ, Mallinson RJ, Scheid JL, Williams NI.
PMID: 25722661
J Int Soc Sports Nutr. 2015 Feb 19;12:11. doi: 10.1186/s12970-015-0072-0. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: Conditions of low energy availability (EA) ( 0.05). EA was lower in the ExAmen vs. ExEumen (30.9 ± 2.4 vs. 36.9 ± 1.7 kcal/kgLBM, p = 0.04). The ratio of REE/predicted REE was lower in the ExAmen vs....

Urinary Vitamin D-Binding Protein as a Biomarker of Steroid-Resistant Nephrotic Syndrome.

Biomarker insights

Bennett MR, Pordal A, Haffner C, Pleasant L, Ma Q, Devarajan P.
PMID: 26792978
Biomark Insights. 2016 Jan 13;11:1-6. doi: 10.4137/BMI.S31633. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (NS) is one of the most common glomerular disorders of childhood and is associated with increased urinary vitamin D-binding protein (uVDBP) excretion. We tested the hypothesis that uVDBP represents a biomarker to differentiate steroid-resistant nephrotic...

Syphilis among adolescents and young adults in Cincinnati, Ohio: testing, infection and characteristics of youth with syphilis infection.

Sexual health

Sex Health. 2015 Apr;12(2):179-80. doi: 10.1071/SH15008.

Little is known about the epidemiology of syphilis among adolescents and young adults. This study examined, among more than 17000 young people aged 13-22 years old, trends in rates of syphilis testing and infection; characteristics of infected adolescents; and...

Individual versus Standardized Running Protocols in the Determination of VO2max.

Journal of sports science & medicine

Sperlich PF, Holmberg HC, Reed JL, Zinner C, Mester J, Sperlich B.
PMID: 25983589
J Sports Sci Med. 2015 May 08;14(2):386-93. eCollection 2015 Jun.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether an individually designed incremental exercise protocol results in greater rates of oxygen uptake (VO2max) than standardized testing. Fourteen well-trained, male runners performed five incremental protocols in randomized order to measure...

Developmental and psychosocial issues in cystic fibrosis.
