Book excerpt: The activities of the Food and Nutrition Board's Committee on Military Nutrition Research (CMNR, the committee) have been supported since 1994 by grant DAMD17-94-J-4046 from the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (USAMRMC). This report fulfills the final reporting requirement of the grant, and presents a summary of activities for the grant period from December 1, 1994 through May 31, 1999. During this grant period, the CMNR has met from three to six times each year in response to issues that are brought to the committee through the Military Nutrition and Biochemistry Division of the U.S. Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine at Natick, Massachusetts, and the Military Operational Medicine Program of USAMRMC at Fort Detrick, Maryland. The CMNR has submitted five workshop reports (plus two preliminary reports), including one that is a joint project with the Subcommittee on Body Composition, Nutrition, and Health of Military Women; three letter reports, and one brief report, all with recommendations, to the Commander, U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command, since September 1995 and has a brief report currently in preparation. These reports are summarized in the following activity report with synopses of additional topics for which reports were deferred pending completion of military research in progress. This activity report includes as appendixes the conclusions and recommendations from the nine reports and has been prepared in a fashion to allow rapid access to committee recommendations on the topics covered over the time period.

Download or read book Perceptual and Physiological Responses During Exercise in Cool and Cold Water written by Michael M. Toner and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This investigation examined the interaction of exposure to cold water stress with both perceived exertion and thermal sensation (TS) during exercise. Eight male volunteers performed arm, leg and combined arm and leg exercise for 45 min in water at 20 and 26 C. Exercise was performed at a low and a high intensity relative to the ergometer specific peak oxygen uptake (VO2 peak). In general, percent VO2 peak did not differe (p> 0.05) between types of exercise in either 20 or 26 C water. During low intensity exercise when power output was matched across water temperatures (Tw), percent VO2 peak was greater (p 0.05) in 20 C water (52%) compared to 26 C water (42%). Ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) did not differ (p 0.05) between Tw. During high intensity exercise when percent VO2 peak was matched across Tw, RPE was lower during exercise in 20 C compared to 26 C. Multiple correlation analyses comparing both final RPE and thermal sensation with physiological and thermal measures were performed across type of exercise and Tw. RPE was moderately correlated with heart rate and ventilation, whereas very slight relationships were established with TS, skin and rectal temperatures. TS was moderately correlated with skin and rectal temperatures whereas low correlations existed between TS and both heart rate and ventilation. These data suggest that the change in oxygen uptake associated with exercise in cold water does not add to the overall perception of exertion. This perception appears to be related to cardiopulmonary variables rather than thermal measures, whereas thermal sensation is related to thermal measures and not cardiopulmonary variables. Keywords: Relative oxygen uptake; Water immersion.

Download or read book Thermoregulation During Cold Water Immersion is Unimpaired by Muscle Glycogen Depletion written by Andrew J. Young and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This investigation studied the importance of muscle glycogen levels for body temperature regulation during cold stress. Physiological responses of eight euglycemic males were measured while they rested in cold water on two separate occasions. The trials followed a three-day program of diet and exercise manipulation designed to produce either high (EMG) or low (LMG) pre-immersion glycogen levels in the muscles of the legs, arms and upper torso. Pre-immersion vastus lateralis muscle glycogen concentrations were lower during the LMG trial than the HMG trial. There were no significant differences between the two trials in shivering as reflected by aerobic metabolic rate or in the amount of body cooling as reflected by changes in rectal temperature during the immersions. Post-immersion muscle glycogen levels remained unchanged from pre-immersion levels in both trials. Small but significant increases in plasma glucose and lactate concentration occurred during both immersions. Plasma glycerol increased during immersion in the LMG trial but not in the HMG trial. Plasma free fatty acid concentration increased during both immersion trials, but the change was apparent sooner in the LMG immersion. It was concluded that human thermoregulatory response to cold stress is not impaired by a substantial reduction in the muscle glycogen levels of several major skeletal muscle groups. (aw).

This book was released on 1982 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water immersion and prolonged bed rest reproduce nearly all the physiological responses observed in astronauts in the weightless state. Moreover, it appears that relative to actual weightlessness, given responses tend to occur sooner in immersion and later in bed rest. Much research has been conducted on humans using these two techniques, especially by Russian scientists. This compendium contains abstracts and annotations of reports that appeared in the literature from January 1974 through December 1980. Two other related compendia have been published: Adaptation to Prolonged Bed Rest in Man: A Compendium of Research, by J.E. Greenleaf, C.J. Greenleaf, D. Van Derveer, and K.J. Dorchak (NASA TM X-3307, 1976); and Physiologic Responses to Water Immersion in Man: A Compendium of Research, by J. Kollias, D. Van Derveer, K.J. Dorchak, and J.E. Greenleaf (NASA TM X-3308, 1976).

Download or read book Integrative Sexual Health written by Barbara Bartlik and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrative Sexual Health explores beyond the standard topics in men's and women's health, drawing on a diverse research literature to provide an overview of sexual biology and sexual dysfunction, diverse lifespan, lifestyle and environmental impacts on sexual function, integrative medicine solutions to sexual problems, and traditional eastern and western treatment approaches to healing sexual difficulties. This comprehensive guide written by experts in the field provides clinical vignettes, detailed treatment strategies for mitigating the side effects of both medications and sexual dysfunction associated with medical illness and poor lifestyle habits, and extensive further reading resources. Integrative treatment modalities not typically consulted in mainstream medicine, such as traditional Chinese medicine, Ayurvedic medicine, aromatherapy, and botanical medicine, are presented with the best evidence, in a clinically relevant manner. Part of the Weil Integrative Medicine Library, this volume is a must read for the specialist and non-specialist alike who wish to address sexual problems using an integrative medicine approach, and acquire tools to maintain lifetime optimal health and vitality that supports healthy sexuality. Integrative medicine is defined as healing-oriented medicine that takes account of the whole person (body, mind, and spirit) as well as all aspects of lifestyle; it emphasizes the therapeutic relationship and makes use of appropriate therapies, both conventional and alternative. Series editor Andrew Weil, MD, is Professor and Director of the Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona. Dr. Weil's program was the first such academic program in the U.S., and its stated goal is "to combine the best ideas and practices of conventional and alternative medicine into cost effective treatments without embracing alternative practices uncritically."
