TL;DR: Results showed a significant latency increase for the N1, P2, and P3 components in the processing disordered group, and the interpeak latency interval P2-P3 was significantly longer in the clinical group.
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to evaluate auditory event-related potentials, and related long latency components, in children with auditory processing disorders, and to compare these results with a normal group matched for age, intelligence, and gender. Results showed a significant latency increase for the N1, P2, and P3 components in the processing disordered group. Furthermore, the interpeak latency interval P2-P3 was significantly longer in the clinical group. In terms of amplitude measures, only P3 amplitude differed significantly between groups. These results suggest that the long latency potentials may be useful in the assessment of children with processing disorders.

TL;DR: Greater satisfaction with social support, less experience, and gender (females higher) were related to stress appraisal, and all stress appraisal variables were positively related to burnout.
Abstract: Following Smith's (1986) cognitive-affective model of stress and burnout in athletics, this investigation examined (a) the relationship of personal/situational variables (social support, gender, and years of experience) to stress appraisal and (b) the relationship of stress appraisal (perceived stress, coaching issues, and role conflict) to burnout. Male (n = 99) and female (n = 115) teacher-head basketball coaches from NCAA Division III and NAIA colleges completed established measures of burnout, perceived stress, teacher—coach role conflict, and social support and a measure of coaching issues developed for this study. Multivariate analyses supported the hypothesized relationships. Specifically, greater satisfaction with social support, less experience, and gender (females higher) were related to stress appraisal, and all stress appraisal variables were positively related to burnout. Contrary to previous studies, these teacher—coaches reported moderate to high levels of burnout.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the meaning of an innovative, reform-based curriculum (Active Physics) in various micro (classroom) and macro (school and community) contexts.
Abstract: As science educators struggle to reform science education, we need a better understanding of the conundrums associated with the ways educators enact innovative science within and against the “academic,” “rigorous,” and “elite” sociohistorical constructions of science. I ethnographically investigated the meanings of an innovative, reform-based curriculum (Active Physics) in various micro (classroom) and macro (school and community) contexts. I conducted the study in a high school serving primarily upper middle class students, the majority of whom (97%) planned to attend college. I explored how meanings of the curriculum transformed as the curriculum traveled across space and time. While certain aspects of the context enabled innovative science (e.g., support from the administration, pressure to serve a wider range of students), other aspects of the context constrained the potential of the curriculum (e.g., the need to establish for students, parents, and administrators the legitimacy of Active Physics as “real” and “rigorous” physics). Using practice theory to understand the influence of context and agency in shaping school science practice, this study demonstrates the potential for viewing meanings of science in local settings as partially fluid entities, sometimes reproducing and sometimes contesting sociohistorical legacies.

TL;DR: Development of more systematic methods and guidelines is needed to address the general lack of information on examining drug-dietary substance interactions prospectively, and substantial variability in bioactive ingredient composition and activity of a given dietary substance poses a challenge in conducting robust food-drug interaction studies.

TL;DR: The data suggest that protein carbonyl concentration is elevated by cycling exercise performed at 70 % VO (2peak), is greater following longer duration rides, begins to recover within one hour following exercise, and is not different between men and women.
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of aerobic exercise duration on plasma protein carbonyl concentrations, a marker of protein oxidation, in aerobically trained men and women. Eight men (age: 27 +/- 4 years, VO (2peak): 4.09 +/- 0.26 L x min (-1); mean +/- SD) and 7 women (age: 27 +/- 6 years, VO (2peak): 2.33 +/- 0.24 L x min (-1)) exercised on an electrically-braked cycle ergometer at 70 % VO (2peak) for 30, 60 or 120 minutes on three separate days. Plasma samples collected before and immediately, 30- and 60-minutes post-exercise were analyzed for protein carbonyls. Mean oxygen uptake was greater for men in all conditions (2.75 +/- 0.03 L x min (-1); 38 +/- 0.43 ml x kg (-1) x min (-1)) compared to women (1.57 +/- 0.03 L x min (-1); 24.1 +/- 0.47 ml x kg (-1) x min (-1)). Total work performed during the exercise sessions was also greater for men than for women during the 30 (368 +/- 11 versus 223 +/- 7 kJ), 60 (697 +/- 17 versus 423 +/- 18 kJ), and 120-minute conditions (1173 +/- 44 versus 726 +/- 28 kJ) (Mean +/- SEM). Although these comparisons were significant (p < 0.0001), sex differences in total work performed and mean VO (2) did not result in sex differences in protein carbonyls. However, a condition by time interaction was observed with greater post-exercise values following the 120-minute condition compared to both the 30- and 60-minute conditions. Protein carbonyl concentration was greatest immediately post-exercise for both men and women and generally declined in a linear trend through one hour of recovery. These data suggest that protein carbonyl concentration is elevated by cycling exercise performed at 70 % VO (2peak), is greater following longer duration rides, begins to recover within one hour following exercise, and is not different between men and women.
