Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1539-1550, November 2024. Cerebral hemodynamics have been quantified during exercise via transcranial Doppler ultrasound, as it has high-sensitivity to movement artifacts and displays temporal superiority. Currently, limited research exists regarding how different exercise modalities and postural changes impact the cerebrovasculature across the cardiac cycle. Ten […]

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1551-1557, November 2024. Identifying biomarkers can help in the early detection of muscle loss and drive the development of new therapies. Research suggests a potential link between retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) and muscle mass, particularly in postmenopausal women. This study aimed to examine the association

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1558-1572, November 2024. A competitive sport season represents a multidimensional stressor where physical and psychological stress may render an athlete susceptible to energy deficiency (ED). Downstream effects of ED can include a reduction in measured-to-predicted resting metabolic rate (RMRratio), indicating metabolic compensation. A pathway linking

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1471-1494, November 2024. Food literacy is a growing area of interest given its potential to support healthy and sustainable diets. Most existing food literacy measures focus on nutrition and food skills but fail to address food systems and socio-environmental aspects of food literacy. Further, measures

Dietary supplements including vitamins, minerals, and natural health products are commonly consumed by those aiming to optimize fertility and pregnancy outcomes. The aim of this survey was to describe supplementation practices among individuals who were pregnant or trying to conceive in Vancouver,

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1507-1516, November 2024. Maternal exercise is beneficial for offspring brain development. Amyloid precursor protein (APP) influences neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity. Cleavage products of APP are implicated in the proliferation of neural progenitor cells and neuronal network development. Our study aimed to investigate differences in APP
