Effect of Verbal Encouragement on Performance and Affective Responses in Male Sport Science Students during Sprint Modalities by Sahli, Faten

“…The assessed parameters comprised physical performance, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), and a feeling scale. Post hoc test analysis indicates a significant increase in physical performance during VETS and VESS conditions compared to the control condition due to a decrease in sprint in line 20 m (VETS: p < 0.001, d = 0.55; VESS: p = 0.016, d = 0.41), sprint 10*2 (VETS: p < 0.001, d = 0.64; VESS: p = 0.05, d = 0.36), and sprint L (VETS: p = 0.001, d = 1.19) times compared to the control condition. …”

Influence Of Surface Finish Parameters On Corrosion Of Zinc by Mourad, M. Y. [ممدوح درويش الديري]

“…Also, it was found that the increase in surface roughness has two connecting effects. The first leads to a decrease in corrosion potential due to a decrease in the cathodic surface area while the second leads to an increase in corrosion potential due to a decrease in the peak to valley distances of surface irregularities…”

Anaerobic and aerobic contributions to repeated supramaximal cycling exercises and their adaptation to high-intensity interval training in obese perimenopausal and postmenopausal w... by Jabbour, Georges

“…Results The results showed that, before training, the anaerobic contributions to repeated SCE did not differ between the perimenopausal and postmenopausal women for the first three repetitions. However, a higher decrease was reported for postmenopausal women at the fourth and fifth repetitions (P < 0.01, respectively). …”

Association between Insulin and Nitric Oxide in Human Retinal Microvascular Endothelial Cells in vitro by Rizk, Nasser Moustafa

“…This study demonstrated that hyperglycemia causes an increase in ROS/oxidative stress and apoptosis, while insulin promotes a significant decrease in ROS and apoptosis. eNOS mediated NO production increases with hyperglycemia but remarkably decreases with insulin treatment after 1 hour, 2 hours and 4 hours. …”

Adaptive thermal comfort in the different buildings of Darjeeling Hills in eastern India – Effect of difference in elevation by Thapa, Samar

“…The yearly mean comfort temperature for the location S0135 was 28.37°C, K1420 was 20.59°C, M 1640 was 20.07°C, S1950 was 19.72°C and T2565 was 17.35°C, respectively, where the digits in the locations (i.e. 0135 in S0135, 1420 in K1420, 1640 in M1640, 1950 in S1950 and 2565 in T2565) represents the elevation of the location under study in meters above mean sea level. A relation of the indoor comfort temperature with the outdoor environmental conditions and with the elevation of the location under study is obtained.…”
