Worry was assessed using the 16-item PSWQ; total scores range from 16 to 80 (Meyer et al., 1990). The psychometric properties of the PSWQ are well-established (Meyer et al., 1990). Scores have been shown to be sensitive to change in response to acute exercise (Herring et al., 2017...
These results suggest a differential effect of incarceration on adult male BMI among some racial/ethnic鈥揺ducation minority groups. Particularly, given that these groups are most commonly imprisoned, incarceration may help structure obesity disparities and disadvantage across the life course....
In this longitudinal study, we showed that childhood BMI and obesity were significantly associated with adulthood BMI and obesity. Parental obesity at baseline was not positively associated with the increased risk of obesity during adulthood after adjustments for putative risk factors. Male participants ...
The age range of the subjects was between 18 and 25 years. Four head measurements were taken: head length, head breadth, head height and head circumference. In addition, stature and body weight were also measured. All measurements were made by one observer (Fumio Ohtsuki) from 1998 to 2001...
The body mass indices (BMIs) of DJM-2 σ or DJF-2 σ and DJM+2 σ or DJF+2 σ are approximately equal to 18 and 28, respectively. Approximately 90% of adult Japanese male or female correspond to BMI range of 18 to 28. It can be concluded that the impact of body size ...
This study determined relationships between age, BMI and cranio-vertebral angle (CVA) (independent variables) and stiffness and elasticity of sternocleidomasteoid [SCM] and upper trapezius [UT] (dependent variables) muscles in sitting posture in 95 women across adult life. Moreover, a stepwise re...
Chinese aged 30-39 years; 2) To compare fat distribution, appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ApSM), bone mineral density (BMD) and limb bone lengths across these five ethnic groups.A convenience sample of healthy NZ Chinese (M20, F23) was selected by BMI to cover a wide range of body ...
Assign diagnosis codes to the following conditions: 1. Obese, 10-year-old male child, height 56 inches, weight 102 lbs, BMI 22.9, 95th percentile for BMI 2. Zellweger-like syndrome 3. Mixed hyperlipidemia If a 45-year-old man came into...
CONCLUSION:: In a wide range of adult BMI in men, the birth weight was inversely related to systolic blood pressure, even when controlled for BMI since the age of 7 y. However, the effect may reflect the weight change between birth and 7 y of age. After that age BMI had no ...
To maintain good performance, SVM must be recalibrated and recalculated more often and much more attention must be paid to the value range of a newly incoming data set. Based on our experience and results of many competitions, we would not use SVMs for really challenging real world problems....
