Background/Objectives The plants of the Lavandula genus are widely investigated because of their significance for pharmaceuticals and food. The composition of lavender essential oil is determined by genotype and can be induced by environmental, ontog...
Heart failure is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide [...]
Background: Building on our previous work, this study presents a cost-effective, non-invasive methodology for recording, identifying, and analyzing plant ultrasonic emissions in dynamic environments, both indoor and outdoor. While previous research h...
Background/Objectives: Volleyball training camps are known to reduce salivary secretory immunoglobulin A (s-SIgA); however, when it begins to decrease is unclear. The validity of a simple device for quantifying s-SIgA is lacking; hence, this study ai...
Background: Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) are chronic conditions characterized by high relapse rates and significant psychological, physical, and social complications. Despite the availability of traditional pharmacological and psychotherapeutic int...
Background/Objectives: This study examines the utility of the 3-min all-out test (3MT) in determining exercise intensity domains through critical speed (CS), offering a practical alternative to traditional VO2max-based methods. Methods: Eighteen trai...
Background/Objectives: Plyometrics is a widely used method to enhance the physical performance of athletes. Studies have demonstrated that the effectiveness of plyometrics increases when combined with other training methods. This study aims to determ...
Background/Objectives: Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) may help quantify changes in brain haemodynamics during sport-related concussions (SRCs). This study compared post-match prefrontal cortex (PFC) brain haemodynamics measured by fNIR...
The maximal rate of fat oxidation (MFO, in g∙min−1) and the relative exercise intensity at which it occurs (FATmax, as %V̇O2max) are indexes of metabolic flexibility. The time-consuming, graded exercise protocol required for MFO/FATm...
Pregnancy is followed by complex and intense physiological changes in the maternal body, whose goal is to provide all the needs of the mother and the growing fetus. The endocrine system and thermoregulation integrate physiologic responses and play an...
