The time of day at which people are shown a light source that produces visual discomfort is not perceived evenly. As the day progress, people tend to become more tolerant to the same levels of discomfort glare (i.e., people are more sensitive to discomfort glare in the morning compared to later in the day.)
Testosterone rises in late hours of sleep after anaerobic exercise. [23] Skeletal muscle androgen receptor expression increases with acute exercise in correlation to free testosterone. [ 24 ] When comparing men and women in the 30-, 50-, and 70-year age groups, young and middle aged men showed increased testosterone after exercise, with the ...
Neuroplasticity is the process by which neurons adapt to a disturbance over time, and most often occurs in response to repeated exposure to stimuli. [27] Aerobic exercise increases the production of neurotrophic factors [note 1] (e.g., BDNF, IGF-1, VEGF) which mediate improvements in cognitive functions and various forms of memory by promoting blood vessel formation in the brain, adult ...
The chronaxie values for mammalian ventricles at body temperature range from 0.5 ms (human) to 2.0 to 4.1 ms (dog); this is an 8.2/1 ratio. It has been reported that large-diameter myelinated axons have chronaxie times ranging from 50 to 100 μs and 30 to 200 μs, and neuronal cell bodies and dendrites have chronaxie times ranging from 1 to 10 ...
Improvement to cognitive performance caused by exercise could last for 24 hours, a new study shows. Scientists also linked getting 6 or more hours of sleep to better memory test scores the next day.
How to Reset Female Hormones For Weight Loss. This article was reviewed by Craig Primack, MD, FACP, FAAP, MFOMA. Hormones can be helpful heroes, supporting the immune system and a healthy sleep ...
Most people need a small caloric surplus—about 350 to 500 extra calories per day—to support muscle growth while minimizing fat gain, according to a 2019 study published in Sport and Exercise ...
The mechanoreception of sound requires a specific set of receptor cells called hair cells that allow for gradient signals to pass onto spatial ganglia where the signal will be sent to the brain to be processed. Since this is mechanoreception, different from chemoreception, adaptation of sound from surroundings highly depends on the physical ...
