Effect of exercise therapy on lipid profile and oxidative stress indicators in patients with type 2 diabetes

TL;DR: The study demonstrate the efficacy of Hatha yoga exercise on fasting blood glucose, lipid profile, oxidative stress markers and antioxidant status in patients with type 2 diabetes and suggest that Hatha Yoga exercise and conventional PT exercise may have therapeutic preventative and protective effects on diabetes mellitus by decreasing oxidative stress and improving antioxidant status.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of air-gaping behaviour on extrapallial fluid pH in the tropical oyster Crassostrea rhizophorae

TL;DR: Although pH continued to fall during emersion, air-gaping behaviour facilitated the maintenance of a relatively high pH and full valve adduction did not appear to be correlated with a specific EPF pH value.
Journal Article

Phase Co-Ordination in the Cardiac and Ventilatory Rhythms of the Lobster Homarus Americanus

TL;DR: Relative co-ordination between the rhythms of the right and left scaphognathites and between the heart and either right or left SG or both simultaneously is demonstrated, indicating that sensory reafference resulting from the interplay between the applied and intended movements can alter the SG rhythm depending upon the relative phasing of the two movements.
