Exercise And Eating Habit Change In The Treatment Of Obesity, Michael D. Johnson

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

A pretest-posttest control group design was used to compare the effectiveness of a behavioral caloric reduction/exercise increase treatment package with a caloric reduction approach. The participants consisted of 32 people selected from those responding to a community newspaper advertisement announcing the weight control program. The caloric reduction/exercise treatment group focused on energy expenditure methods for reducing weight and improving physical fitness along with procedures for controlling food intake patterns. The caloric reduction group concentrated on procedures for controlling food intake patterns only. The results indicated that weight loss was achieved by both the caloric reduction group and the combined caloric …

The Relationship Of Lean Body Mass To Resting Metabolic Rate, Maryann Butler

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Previous investigators have established predictors affecting basal metabolic rate. These include body size, age and sex, surface area, temperature and environment, and exercise. Conflicting data have been reported concerning the expression of basal metabolism in units of square meters of surface area. It was the purpose of this study to observe the relationship of lean body mass (LBM) to resting metabolic rate (RMR) in college-age males of high lean body mass and low lean body mass. A second purpose was to determine the validity of a relatively new method of measuring resting metabolic rate using a whole body calorimeter (WBC). …

The Zinc Status Of Pregnant Vegetarian Women, Michelle J. Abu-Assal

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The zinc status of twelve lacto-ovo-vegetariah pregnant women and seventeen non-vegetarian pregnant women was evaluated. Zinc intakes were calculated from three-day dietary records and twenty-four hour dietary histories. Plasma zinc levels were drawn during the last trimester of pregnancy and approximately ten weeks postpartum. Gestational age at birth, birthweight, and APGAR scores of the infants born were obtained from the medical charts. Dietary zinc intakes for the vegetarians (10.5 ± 4.0 mg) did not differ significantly from the intakes of the non-vegetarians (10.9 ± 3.0 mg). The vegetarian last trimester plasma zinc levels (47.9 ± 12.4 mcg/dl) and postpartum plasma …

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine

Nonsurgical management and surgical treatment for correction of bilateral carpal valgus in 22 foals were retrospectively compared.

Ten of these foals were successfully corrected. Nine foals were surgically corrected by stapling technique while other 2 cases were treated by tension band wiring application. The success of surgical method was evident in 6 cases. By analysis of variance, no significant difference between the success of the nonsurgical management and that of the surgical method. …

Cost-Benefit Analysis Of Computer Systems In Community Hospital Food Service, Beverly Kittle

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Cost containment has always been a major concern to managers. Therefore, any system which decreases costs by reducing labor time is given serious evaluation.

A five week comparison was made between financial record keeping by the manual method and by the computerized method. A continuous time study was utilized to make this comparison.

Over the five weeks, an average overall time savings of 245 minutes for the computerized versus the manual method was observed. The net savings to the institution was 223 minutes per week which translates to approximately $140.00 per month over a 5 year period.

The rapid payback …
