Acknowledge the Elephant in the Room: the Role of Power Dynamics in Transforming Food Systems; Comment on "What Opportunities Exist for Making the Food Supply Nutrition Friendly? A Policy Space Analysis in Mexico"
(Kerman University of Medical Sciences, 26 July 2022)A paradigm shift is required to transform food systems, so they are more equitable, environmentally friendly, and healthy. This requires acknowledging which factors change or maintain the status quo. In this commentary, ... -
The acute effect of exercise intensity on peripheral and cerebral vascular function in healthy adults
(American Physiological Society, 7 July 2022)The acute effect of exercise intensity on cerebrovascular reactivity, and whether this mirrors changes in peripheral vascular function, has not been investigated. The aim of this study was to explore the acute effect of ... -
Walking with increasing acceleration is achieved by tuning ankle torque onset timing and rate of torque development
(The Royal Society, 29 June 2022)Understanding the mechanics of torque production about the ankle during accelerative gait is key to designing effective clinical and rehabilitation practices, along with developing functional robotics and wearable assistive ... -
Continuous thermoregulatory responses to a mass-participation 89-km ultramarathon road race
(Human Kinetics, 6 September 2022)Abstract Purpose: To continuously measure body core temperature (Tc) throughout a mass-participation ultramarathon in sub-elite recreational runners to quantify Tc magnitude and the influence of aerobic fitness and ... -
The effect of exercise intensity and cardiorespiratory fitness on the kinetic response of middle cerebral artery blood velocity during exercise in adults
(American Physiological Society, 12 July 2022)The aim of this study was to compare the kinetic response of middle cerebral artery blood velocity (MCAv) to moderate and heavy-intensity cycling in adults, and explore the relationship between maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) ...
