    probably muscle lactate concentration has the potential to increase the aerobic energy turnover in the following high intensity exercise. The reduced oxygen deficit is related with the reduction in both the depletion of intramuscular PCr stores and the rate at which lactic acid is produced, which is probably caused by overtraining or fatigue ( Jones, Andrew M. and Koppo, Katrien and Burnley, Mark, 2003). One of the factors thought to have influence on the maximal accumulated oxygen deficit is…

    conditions that were set. In order to perform this experiment and gather data, assumptions had to be made. They assumed that the artery model was stationary with rigid walls. This was so they could look at the flow within the artery and not have the heart pumping be a factor on this. Another assumption made was that blood had Newtonian rheology since it has been found that non-Newtonian viscosity of blood has little effect on the dynamics of arterial blood flow. Three-dimensional, steady,…

    cardioversion. Stroke and death are the main problems with these surgeries. What happens if these procedures don’t work? Is there another option for the patients to receive any treatment? If the heart is shocked three or four times in one cardioversion setting, how will the heart handle this treatment the next time the heart needs to be shocked? Is there a definite cure out there?

    Previously I have used both breathing exercises and progressive muscle relaxation to fall asleep easier and attempt to relieve some stress. Before both attempts of these relaxation exercises, I was at yoga so my body was already very relaxed. Neither of the exercises were difficult for me but I struggle more with concentrating during PMR. In both sessions of the breathing exercises, I was able to get deeply into my headspace and feel free of stress or anything else. It really helped me focus…

I have always had a fascination with this system considering all the sports injuries I’ve had and witnessed throughout my life. My orthopedic physician inspired me to have a career in a field that involved the skeletal system. The skeletal…

    I looked down astonished at the beating heart before me. The surgeon attempted to clarify the procedure he was performing, but I was too busy trying to detect the clear string he was sewing in and out of the heart. I was in awe of his comfort with teaching an undergraduate student how to successfully execute a coronary artery bypass surgery, as if he knew I was interested in that specialty. He explained the condition of the patient and while I did not understand the terminology, I nodded with…
