Characterizing luminous efficiency functions for a simulated mesopic night driving task based on reaction time

The objective of this study is to test the luminous efficiency functions V(lambda), V'(lambda), V(10)(lambda) and their linear combinations on the basis of a data set gained from a simulated mesopic night-time driving experiment. Another aim is to provide 'real-world' data for the 'X framework' or 'linear combination model', and to find out its limits in a practical situation. Human performance was measured by the reaction time method. Results show that the single parameter of the linear combination of photopic and scotopic luminous efficiency functions can be determined analytically with little variation for a given mesopic background luminance level and a given visual target colour, but the computation leads to considerable deviations comparing all three target colours (red, green and blue) used in the experiment. The conclusion for the given experimental conditions is that the single parameter of the linear combination model has an increasing deviation for lower background luminance levels.     

Working‐correlation‐structure identification in generalized estimating equations

Selecting an appropriate working correlation structure is pertinent to clustered data analysis using generalized estimating equations (GEE) because an inappropriate choice will lead to inefficient parameter estimation. We investigate the well‐known criterion of QIC for selecting a working correlation structure, and have found that performance of the QIC is deteriorated by a term that is theoretically independent of the correlation structures but has to be estimated with an error. This leads us to propose a correlation information criterion (CIC) that substantially improves the QIC performance. Extensive simulation studies indicate that the CIC has remarkable improvement in selecting the correct correlation structures. We also illustrate our findings using a data set from the Madras Longitudinal Schizophrenia Study. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Neuromuscular function and mechanical efficiency of human leg extensor muscles during jumping exercises

The influence of prestretch amplitude on the mechanical efficiency was examined with 5 subjects, who performed 5 different series of vertical jumps, each of which differed with respect to the mechanics of the knee joint action during the prestretch (eccentric) phase of the contact on the floor. Electromyographic activity was recorded from the major extensor muscles during the entire work period of 1 min per series. In addition, expired air was collected during the test and recovery for determination of energy expenditure. Mechanical work was calculated from the vertical displacement of the body during the jumps. The results indicated that high net efficiency of 38.7% was observed in condition where amplitude of knee bending in eccentric phase was small. In large range motion the corresponding net efficiency was 30.1%. In jumps where no prestretching of extensor muscles ocurred the net efficiency was 19.7%. The high efficiency of small amplitude jumps was characterized by low myoelectrical activity of the leg extensor muscles during the positive (concentric) work phase. In addition, the small amplitude jumps had shorter transition time in the stretch-shortening cycle, high average eccentric force and high stretching speed. Therefore the results suggest that the restitution of elastic energy, which was also related to the length change and stiffness of the muscles during stretch, plays an important role in regulating the mechanical efficiency of work.     

Supra-maximal cycling efficiency assessed in humans by using a new protocol

This study proposed a non-invasive method to determine the gross (GE, no baseline correction), net (NE, resting metabolism as the baseline correction) and work (WE, unloaded cycling as the baseline correction) efficiencies during cycling at an intensity higher than the maximal aerobic power (MAP). Twelve male subjects performed two exercises consisting of 4 min at 50% MAP followed either by 8 min at 63% MAP or by 8 sequences of 60 s divided into 10 s at 130% MAP and 50 s at 50% MAP (i.e., 63% MAP on average). Oxygen uptake was continuously measured to calculate GE, NE and WE at 50%, 63% and 130% MAP, and the data presented as the means and standard deviations. The GE values were 18.2%, 19.1%, 22.7%, the NE values were 22.4%, 22.8%, 24.3% and the WE values were 34.2%, 31.4% and 27.2% at 50%, 63% and 130% MAP, respectively. The GE and NE increased (P<0.001) whereas the WE decreased (P<0.001) with each increment in power output. The GE was lower than the NE (P<0.001) at 50% and 63% MAP and than the WE (P<0.001) at all intensities. The NE was lower (P<0.001) than the WE at 50% and 63% MAP. These results showed that (1) efficiency index values obtained during supra-maximal exercise were consistent with previous proposals and (2) the efficiency-power output relationships were not limited to sub-maximal intensity levels but were confirmed at higher power output.     

An energy balance of front crawl

With the aim of computing a complete energy balance of front crawl, the energy cost per unit distance (C= v^–1, where is the metabolic power and v is the speed) and the overall efficiency (_o=W_tot/C, where W_tot is the mechanical work per unit distance) were calculated for subjects swimming with and without fins. In aquatic locomotion W_tot is given by the sum of: (1) W_int, the internal work, which was calculated from video analysis, (2) W_d, the work to overcome hydrodynamic resistance, which was calculated from measures of active drag, and (3) W_k, calculated from measures of Froude efficiency (_F). In turn, _F=W_d/(W_d+W_k) and was calculated by modelling the arm movement as that of a paddle wheel. When swimming at speeds from 1.0 to 1.4 m s^–1, _F is about 0.5, power to overcome water resistance (active body drag × v) and power to give water kinetic energy increase from 50 to 100 W, and internal mechanical power from 10 to 30 W. In the same range of speeds increases from 600 to 1,200 W and C from 600 to 800 J m^–1. The use of fins decreases total mechanical power and C by the same amount (10–15%) so that _o (overall efficiency) is the same when swimming with or without fins [0.20 (0.03)]. The values of _o are higher than previously reported for the front crawl, essentially because of the larger values of W_tot calculated in this study. This is so because the contribution of W_int to W_tot was taken into account, and because _F was computed by also taking into account the contribution of the legs to forward propulsion.     

The effect of growth hormone on the growth failure of chronic renal failure

To investigate the effects of growth hormone (GH) on the reversal of growth failure in uremia, recombinant human GH (rhGH) was administered to rats with chronic renal failure (CRF). The dosage of rhGH was 3 IU/day (i.p.) for 13 days after the induction of CRF by 5/6 nephrectomy. Animals were classified into four groups: untreated nephrectomized rats (NX,n=40), GH-treated nephrectomized rats (NX+GH,n=18), sham-operated rats fed ad libitum (SHAMAL,n=27), and sham-operated rats pair-fed with 10 NX rats (SHAMPF,n=10). NX and NX+GH rats developed a similar and moderate degree of CRF, serum urea nitrogen being (mean±SEM) 49±3 and 54±4 mg/dl, respectively, compared with 16±4 and 19±0 mg/dl in SHAMAL and SHAMPF groups. Weight (56.0±3.3 g) and length (3.5±0.1 cm) gains of NX rats were lower than those of SHAMAL rats (94.2±4.0 g,P<-0.0001 and 4.1±0.2 cm,P<-0.01). Growth of the SHAMPF group and the matched NX rats was not significantly different. Weight (56.2±5.0 g) and length (3.4±0.2 cm) gains of NX+GH and NX rats were similar, the beneficial effect of GH therapy on growth being observed in only those animals with more severe degrees of uremia. This growth-promoting action resulted from greater food efficiency and not from stimulated food intake. The hypercholesterolemia seen in NX rats, 81±2 mg/dl versus 55±3 mg/dl in SHAMAL (P0.0001), was not increased in the NX+GH group, 87±3 mg/dl. There was a positive and significant correlation between serum cholesterol and serum urea nitrogen values in NX and NX+GH animals. This study suggests that growth impairment of mild CRF is mainly due to malnutrition and is refractory to GH administration. GH therapy improves the growth rate of animals with advanced CRF without aggravating their lipid abnormalities.     

正常与病态下嗓音的客观指标的评价

对158例正常人和136例各种喉疾病患者连续元音[i]发声时的平均气流率、声强、频率、频率微扰商和发声效率同步进行了测定.并对各测定指标间的相互关系进行了探讨.频率微扰商是表示连续元音发声时声带振动相邻周期间的微细变动量;发声效率反映平均气流率与声能的有效转换率.在低、中和高强度发声时.随发声强度的提高,平均气流率.频率和发声效率随之提高而频率微扰商则变小.中等声强发声时.平均气流率与声强,声强与频率均呈正相关;而平均气流率与发声效率.声强(男性)和频率(女性)与频率微扰商均呈负相关.多数喉疾病患者显示出较正常人高的平均气流率和频率微扰商,发声效率则降低.当声强和频率作为参考指标时,平均气流率,频率微扰商和发声效率可作为评价喉发声功能的客观、定量指标.
