Appetite, energy intake and resting metabolic responses to 60 min treadmill running performed in a fasted versus a postprandial state.

This study investigated the effect of fasted and postprandial exercise on appetite, energy intake and resting metabolic responses. Twelve healthy males (mean±SD: age 23±3 years, body mass index 22.9±2.1 kg m(-2), maximum oxygen uptake 57.5±9.7 mL kg(-1) min(-1)) performed three 10 h experimental trials (control, fasted exercise and postprandial exercise) in a Latin Square design. Trials commenced at 8 am after an overnight fast. Sixty min of treadmill running at ∼70% of maximum oxygen uptake was performed at 0-1 h in the fasted exercise trial and 4-5 h in the postprandial exercise trial. A standardised breakfast was provided at 1.5 h and ad libitum buffet meals at 5.5 and 9.5 h. Appetite ratings and resting expired air samples were collected throughout each trial. Postprandial exercise suppressed appetite to a greater extent than fasted exercise. Ad libitum energy intake was not different between trials, resulting in a negative energy balance in exercise trials relative to control after accounting for differences in energy expenditure (control: 9774±2694 kJ; fasted exercise: 6481±2318 kJ; postprandial exercise: 6017±3050 kJ). These findings suggest that 60 min treadmill running induces a negative daily energy balance relative to a sedentary day but is no more effective when performed before or after breakfast

Considering Harm and Safety in Youth Mental Health: A Call for Attention and Action

The possibility of harm from mental health provision, and in particular harm from youth mental health provision, has been largely overlooked. We contend that if we continue to assume youth mental health services can do no harm, and all that is needed is more services, we continue to risk the possibility that the safety of children and young people is unintentionally compromised. We propose a three level framework for considering harm from youth mental health provision (1. ineffective engagement, 2. ineffective practice and 3. adverse events) and suggest how this framework could be used to support quality improvement in services

Creating an acute energy deficit without stimulating compensatory increases in appetite: is there an optimal exercise protocol?

Recent years have witnessed significant interest from both the scientific community and the media regarding the influence of exercise on subsequent appetite and energy intake responses. This review demonstrates a consensus among the majority of scientific investigations that an acute bout of land-based endurance exercise does not stimulate any compensatory increases in appetite and energy intake on the day of exercise. Alternatively, preliminary evidence suggests that low volume, supramaximal exercise may stimulate an increase in appetite perceptions during the subsequent hours. In accordance with the apparent insensitivity of energy intake to exercise in the short term, the daily energy balance response to exercise appears to be primarily determined by the energy cost of exercise. This finding supports the conclusions of recent training studies that the energy expenditure of exercise is the strongest predictor of fat loss during an exercise programme

Solastalgia

My work explores the empathic connections between humans and the physical landscape and investigates the phenomenon of psychological distress associated withclimate change. I use memories of my itinerant shifts between landscapes to createabstracted ceramic sculptures; for these I reference mountain and glacial forms, anextension of my own experience growing up in Alaska. Ceramics is a medium whichreadily records the hand of the maker while making forms permanent through the firingprocess. I use this aspect of the material to freeze moments in time where the clay splitsand cracks, implying a slow collapse. This reflection of time’s effect on materials elicitscorrelations between the temporality of flesh and ice and stone. Combining materialssuch as lumber, plastic, and polystyrene with the ceramic creates an environment thatreferences the sublime in nature and its corruption due to the waste of industry. Usingthese material contrasts and metaphors, my sculpture work aims to engage viewersemotionally while allowing for a broader discourse regarding the changing climate

Through the glass ceiling: the EU as a developing security regime for Europe?

This article examines the way in which the EU has moved beyond its traditional, cold war role, and has extended its role in the sphere of security policies. Enlargement to the east and south is one of the most effective ways in which the EU can extend its influence, and through which it can help to create a zone of security, peace and prosperity in Europe. However, the focus of this article is not upon enlargement itself, but the growth of the EU’s role as a provider of security beyond its existing frontiers. The characteristics of international institutions are best understood through three levels of analysis: the international system, the individual states, and institutions themselves The fall of the iron curtain has created a changed international environment, and the opportunity for European international institutions to extend their membership, to alter and enhance their roles, and to influence the politics of their members. The EU has sought to project economic security through trade, and to exercise a political and diplomatic role beyond its borders. During the cold war, the allies on both sides of the Atlantic relied upon national defence and NATO to protect their territories. With the end of the cold war, both NATO and the EU were inevitably forced to re-examine their roles and raison d’être. Within the EC, the process of adaptation was different, as member states first wanted to consolidate their existing policy programme, including EMU

All Men Lose Their Way

This book stack has the potential to be expanded into a series illustrating a fictional journey. Utilizing the spines of both non-fiction, reference, and fiction books to construct this narrative would highlight the power of the written form to invoke the journeys of research and the imagination. Bringing these seemingly disparate sections of the library together also showcases the breadth of resources available, consolidating them into an legible narrative. Location These stacks would be situated in common areas around the library. The stacks would be housed in simple wooden boxes to highlight their presence

Pernicious anemia (B12 deficiency)

This issue of eMedRef provides information to clinicians on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and therapeutics of pernicious anemia

Semi-Permanent Forms

As a ceramic artist, I am using high fired porcelain forms to create miniature memorials for our ever shrinking polar ice caps. Through the use of public installation, I am seeking to arrange the ceramic forms in ways that potentially confront the viewer in hopes to generate discourse and/or reflection. The use of ceramic materials will help me as an artists gain insight in to the material and push the concept of slipcast porcelain kitsch souvenirs in to different avenues of utilization: as a means of ecological statement rather than soley nostalgia

Unemployment Benefits and the Religion Clauses: A Recurring Conflict

This Casenote examines Thomas v. Review Board of the Indiana Employment Security Division, in which the Supreme Court of the United States extended unemployment benefits to a claimant who had voluntarily terminated his employment for religious reasons. The author discusses the application of the first amendment religion clauses to cases of this nature, and suggests that the Supreme Court did not properly balance the claimant\u27s right to the free exercise of his religion against the state\u27s interest in maintaining its unemployment compensation system. The author concludes that the Court\u27s decision increases the conflict between the establishment and free exercise clauses of the first amendmen
