TL;DR: This article examined whether diverse groups react differently to politics in the workplace as a function of understanding and found that understanding moderated the relationships between dimensions of politics perceptions and employee reactions for white males but not for racial/ethnic minorities, as hypothesized.

TL;DR: The decreased step count that the participants with CAI demonstrated is concerning and may be secondary to the functional limitations reported, and may potentially be a substantial health risk if not treated appropriately.
Abstract: Context: Ankle sprains are the most common orthopaedic pathologic condition, and more concerning is the high percentage of persons who develop chronic ankle instability (CAI). Researchers have repo...

TL;DR: Early rehabilitation strategies targeting spinal‐reflexive excitability may help improve postoperative outcomes, while later‐stage rehabilitation may benefit from therapeutic techniques aimed at improving corticospinal excitability.
Abstract: The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate differences in quadriceps corticospinal excitability, spinal-reflexive excitability, strength, and voluntary activation before, 2 weeks post and 6 months post-anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLr) This longitudinal, case-control investigation examined 20 patients scheduled for ACLr (11 females, 9 males; age: 209 ± 44 years; height:1724 ± 75 cm; weight:762 ± 118 kg) and 20 healthy controls (11 females, 9 males; age:217 ± 37 years; height: 1737 ± 99 cm; weight: 761 ± 197 kg) Maximal voluntary isometric contractions (MVIC), central activation ratio (CAR), normalized Hoffmann spinal reflexes, active motor threshold (AMT), and normalized motor-evoked potential (MEP) amplitudes at 120% of AMT were measured in the quadriceps muscle at the specific time points ACLr patients demonstrated bilateral reductions in spinal-reflexive excitability compared with controls before surgery (P = 002) and 2 weeks post-surgery (P ≤ 0001) ACLr patients demonstrated higher AMT at 6 months post-surgery (P ≤ 0001) in both limbs No MEP differences were detected Quadriceps MVIC and CAR were lower in both limbs of the ACLr group before surgery and 6 months post-surgery (P ≤ 005) compared with controls Diminished excitability of spinal-reflexive and corticospinal pathways are present at different times following ACLr and occur in combination with clinical deficits in quadriceps strength and activation Early rehabilitation strategies targeting spinal-reflexive excitability may help improve postoperative outcomes, while later-stage rehabilitation may benefit from therapeutic techniques aimed at improving corticospinal excitability

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, new volatile (H2O, CO2, S), halogen (F, Cl) and trace-element data for selected fresh MORB glasses are reported from two geologically and geophysically well-studied regions on the East Pacific Rise (8-10°N and 12-14°N) with distinct differences in spreading rate and magma supply.
