Radiation therapy (RT) offers a less invasive management option for bariatric cancer patients. As the proportion of Australians categorised overweight or obese approaches 70%, it is not well understood how this growth will impact RT departments. The aim of this study was to evaluate the current and potential future body mass index (BMI) of RT patie...

Digital polymerase chain reaction (dPCR) technology has provided a new technique for molecular diagnostics, with superior advantages, such as higher sensitivity, precision, and specificity over quantitative real-time PCRs (qPCR). Eight companies have offered commercial dPCR instruments: Fluidigm Corporation, Bio-Rad, RainDance Technologies, Life Te...

Cyclists are exposed for a long period to continuous vibrations. When a muscle is exposed to vibration, its efficiency decreases, the onset of fatigue occurs sooner, and the comfort of the cyclist is reduced. This study characterised the vastus lateralis (VL) soft tissue vibrations for different input frequencies and different pedalling phases. Ten...
Tout au long de son histoire, la France a aménagé ses territoires pour répondre aux besoins de ses populations en termes d’habitat ou d’activité. Le beau a souvent été conjugué avec l’utile, d’où le bel héritage de nombreux et variés paysages urbains et ruraux. Toutefois, depuis les années 1960, la France a multiplié des constructions impersonnelle...

Standardized laboratory exercise testing is common in sport settings and rehabilitation. The advantages of laboratory-based compared to field testing include the use of calibrated equipment and the possibility of keeping environmental conditions within narrow limits, making test results highly comparable and reproducible. However, when using differ...
