Results: Of the 42 F/A-18 pilots who completed the questionnaire, 86% reported regular physical conditioning, mostly three times per week. Aerobic activities were the most common (83%), with running the most popular activity (55%). Anaerobic activities were reported by 26% of respondents. Most respondents reported doing more than one activity, with an average weekly training volume of 129 ± 77 min. The ergometer test results revealed a mean Vo₂max of 50 ± 6 ml 0₂ ·kg· min⁻¹ Condusion: The high rates of participation in regular physical activity suggest that physical fitness is perceived as important by the fighter pilot operating in the high +Gz environment. The fighter pilots in this study participated in aerobic activities at a much higher rate than anaerobic activities. The aerobic fitness levels measured suggest that the pilots have good but not exceptionally high levels of aerobic power that are unlikely to influence +Gz tolerance.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:13:10 AEDT ]]> Respiratory symptoms and inflammatory responses to Difflam throat-spray intervention in half-marathon runners: a randomised controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:11247 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:10:54 AEDT ]]> Pre-exercise carbohydrate status influences carbohydrate-mediated attenuation of post-exercise cytokine responses https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:5251 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:46:36 AEDT ]]> Functional changes in deep dorsal horn interneurons following spinal cord injury are enhanced with different durations of exercise training https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26891 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:41:40 AEDT ]]> Electrophysiological characterization of spontaneous recovery in deep dorsal horn interneurons after incomplete spinal cord injury https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26619 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:34:00 AEDT ]]> Comparison of fatty acid intakes assessed by a cardiovascular-specific food frequency questionnaire with red blood cell membrane fatty acids in hyperlipidaemic Australian adults: a validation study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:29795 P<0.05) moderate-strong correlations were found between CVD-AES FAs and FA proportions in RBC membranes for EPA (r=0.62), DHA (r=0.53) and DPA (r=0.42), with a moderate correlation for LA (r=0.39) and no correlation with ALA. Significant moderate correlations were found with the AES for DHA (r=0.39), but not for LA, ALA, EPA or DPA. Conclusions: The CVD-AES provides a more accurate estimate of long chain FA intakes in hyperlipidaemic adults, compared with AES estimates. This indicates that a CVD-specific FFQ should be used when evaluating FA intakes in this population.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:30:34 AEDT ]]> The efficacy of a supervised and a home-based core strengthening programme in adults with poor core stability: a three-arm randomised controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26941 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:27:30 AEDT ]]> Running performance and thermal sensation in the heat are improved with menthol mouth rinse but not ice slurry ingestion https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27716 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:24:38 AEDT ]]> The reliability of running performance in a 5 km time trial on a non-motorized treadmill https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27717 0.92, with the exception of blood lactate concentration (7.0±2 mmol·L-1 vs. 6.5±1.5 mmol·L-1 for trials 1 and 2, respectively; CV: 12%, ICC: 0.83) and the electromyography measures (CV: 8-27%, ICC: 0.71-0.91).

IL12B promoter analysis was performed to examine hypoxia-responsive elements. Immunoblot analysis of murine and human LPL supernatants was performed to characterize the HIF/IL-12p40 signaling axis. We observed selective induction of IL-12p40 following PHDi-treatment, concurrent with suppression of Th1 and Th17 responses in murine colitis models. In the absence of IL-12p40, PHDi-treatment was ineffective. Analysis of the IL12B promoter identified canonical HIF-binding sites. HIF stabilization in LPLs resulted in production of IL-12p40 homodimer which was protective against colitis. The selective induction of IL-12p40 by HIF-1α leads to a suppression of mucosal Th1 and Th17 responses. This HIF-IL12p40 axis may represent an endogenously protective mechanism to limit the progression of chronic inflammation, shifting from pro-inflammatory IL-12p70 to an antagonistic IL-12p40 homodimer.]]> Mon 20 Feb 2023 14:56:13 AEDT ]]> Altered psychophysiological reactivity as a prognostic indicator of early childhood stress in chronic pain https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19743 Mon 17 Aug 2020 15:30:09 AEST ]]> Aerobic exercise prior to task-specific training to improve poststroke motor function: A case series https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43033 Mon 12 Sep 2022 11:42:26 AEST ]]> VITAL change for mums: a feasibility study investigating tailored nutrition and exercise care delivered by video-consultations for women 3-12 months postpartum https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42276 2 kg above pre‐pregnancy weight) who were seeking to achieve a healthy weight participated in a single‐arm intervention. Participants received up to five real‐time personalised video‐consultations (2 × APD, 2 × AEP, 1 × either) over the 8‐week intervention period. Implementation (recruitment, retention, utilisation), acceptability (participant satisfaction) and preliminary efficacy (anthropometry, dietary intake, cardiovascular fitness, physical activity level, psychological wellbeing) were assessed. Results: Thirty women [mean (SD) age 31.6 (3.1) years, body mass index 29.0 (4.0) kg m−2, 100% married/de facto, 80% university level education] were recruited within 10 days and 27 completed the study. Women's mean (SD) ratings (out of a score of 5) indicated satisfaction with the video‐consultations [4.4 (0.9)] and the online setting [4.5 (0.8)]. Women agreed that accessing an APD [4.4 (0.8)] and AEP [4.3 (0.9)] was easier using video‐consultations than attending an in‐person consultation. Statistically significant improvements in waist circumference, body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, dietary intake and physical activity were observed from baseline to 8 weeks. Conclusions: The findings of the present study suggest that a nutrition and exercise intervention delivered by qualified health professionals via video‐consultations is feasible, acceptable and achieves positive outcomes for women following childbirth.]]> Fri 19 Aug 2022 14:44:28 AEST ]]>
