can be used to monitor large groups of people and they provide an objective measurement (Sirard & Pate, 2001). Traditionally, physical activity was measured with surveys that required participants to recall their activity over a period of time. This posed difficulties, especially with children and...
Native proteins use hydration frustration—regulating the dehydration of hydrophilic residues and the hydration of hydrophobic residues—to enhance their activity. Now it has been shown that single-polymer-chain nanoparticles made from random heteropolymers can exhibit similar hydration frustration, following...
Physical activity plays an important role in maintaining good health and wellbeing, non-communicable disease prevention and can improve healthcare outcomes. Some progress is being made on incorporating physical activity into routine care, but less on eng
The aims of this study were to advance knowledge on physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB) policies in China and to highlight related gaps and opportunities in the Chinese policy landscape. Literature and web-based searches were performed to
Recently, particular attention has been given to the role of physical activity in mitigating climate change (e.g., active mobility10). However, few have discussed its possible contribution to climate change adaptation and resilience. In this viewpoint, we propose that regular physical activity throu...
