    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_(drug)

    The USDA uses a figure of 6.93 kilocalories (29.0 kJ) per gram of alcohol (5.47 kcal or 22.9 kJ per ml) for calculating food energy. [30] For distilled spirits , a standard serving in the United States is 44 ml (1.5 US fl oz), which at 40% ethanol (80 proof ), would be 14 grams and 98 calories.

    Alcohol binds to several different subtypes of GABA A, but not to others. The main subtypes responsible for the subjective effects of alcohol are the α 1 β 3 γ 2, α 5 β 3 γ 2, α 4 β 3 δ and α 6 β 3 δ subtypes, although other subtypes such as α 2 β 3 γ 2 and α 3 β 3 γ 2 are also affected. Activation of these receptors causes ...

  8. Bone density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_density

    A scanner used to measure bone density using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. Bone density, or bone mineral density, is the amount of bone mineral in bone tissue.The concept is of mass of mineral per volume of bone (relating to density in the physics sense), although clinically it is measured by proxy according to optical density per square centimetre of bone surface upon imaging.

  9. VO2 max - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VO2_max

    V̇O 2 max (also maximal oxygen consumption, maximal oxygen uptake or maximal aerobic capacity) is the maximum rate of oxygen consumption attainable during physical exertion. [1] [2] The name is derived from three abbreviations: "V̇" for volume (the dot over the V indicates "per unit of time" in Newton's notation), "O 2" for oxygen, and "max" for maximum and usually normalized per kilogram of ...
