Herodicus, The Father Of Sports Medicine, Anastasios D. Georgoulis, Irini-Sofia Kiapidou, Lamprini Velogianni, Nikolaos Stergiou, Arthur Boland

Journal Articles

Herodicus (fifth century bc) is the first person in the history of medicine who actually combined sports with medicine. He used to be a sports teacher, who later studied medicine and managed to succeed Euryphon in the medical school of Cnidos, one of the most prominent in ancient Greece together with its neighbor medical school of Cos (Hippocrates’ home). In Cnidos Herodicus formed his own theoretical perspective of medicine. He considered, namely, bad health to be the result of imbalance between diet and physical activity and for this reason he recommended strict diet, constant physical activity and regular training. He …

Physical Activity And Function In Older Adults: Theory Of Planned Behavior, Kimberlee A. Gretebeck, David R. Black, Carolyn L. Blue, Lawrence T. Glickman, Sally A. Huston, Randall J. Gretebeck

College of Nursing Faculty Research and Publications

Objective: To assess the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and TPB with functional ability to explain intention and self-reported physical activity (PA) behavior of older adults.

Methods: A survey was mailed to 2056 retirees from a large Midwestern university.

Results: Structural equation modeling revealed that the TPB plus functional ability explained an additional 11% variance than the TPB alone in older adult PA and functional ability was the best predictor of PA (beta = .53, P< .05).

Conclusions: Functional ability appears to be an important predictor of PA behavior and should be included when designing PA programs for older adults.

Sensory Properties Of Certain Products Processed From Germinated Broad Beans And Chickpeas, S.S Al-Timimi, Mahdi.T. Al-Kaisey, Sura.O Al-Esawi

Baghdad Science Journal

This study was carried out to find out the effect of germination of broad beans and chickpeas seeds for different periods on the sensory properties of homus bethina and falafel. The results revealed that the studied properties were significantly different (P<0.05) in both flavor and overall acceptance as compared with other treatments.The falafel processed from chickpeas (ordinary and germinated) showed significant differences among all treatments and control sample.The sensory evaluation of the falafel processed from different ratio of ordinary and germinated broad beans and chickpeas showed significant differences (P<0.05) in flavor and overall acceptance as compared to other treatments contained different proportions of ordinary and germinated broad beans or ordinary and germinated chickpeas as compared with control sample which was D0 (100% ordinary broad beans ) , while when considering treatment E0 (100% ordinary chickpeas) as control , the treatment contained high proportion of ordinary and germinated broad beans or ordinary and germinated chickpeas varied significantly in flavor. Also, treatments contained high proportion of germinated broad beans varied significantly (P<0.05) in overall acceptance in comparison to control treatment.

The Role Of Home –Made Meals In Meeting The Dietary Requirements For The Kindergarten Children, Fatin F. Al –Talib, Ebtihal E. Al–Ani

Baghdad Science Journal

This research has been applied on 100 children (age 4 – 6 years) from three kindergartens distributed on basis of 43 children from the college of Education for women kindergarten (A) , 27 children from the governmental Al- Mustafa kindergarten (B) , and 30 children from the private Al – Baraom kindergarten (C) . Details concerning their school meals, already prepared at home , have been analyzed according to their dietary components taken from the tables of the dietary values .The statistical analysis results have shown no significant difference (p< 0.01) in the intake of energy , protein and thiamin between the children of A and C kindergartens while these children have significantly recieved higher amounts of the above nutrients from B children . Similar trend of differences (p < 0.05) among the three kindergartens was reported for calcium , niacin , while no significant difference was observed among the three kindergartens in iron , vit . A, riboflavin and ascorbic acid . The comparison between the average intake recieved by the children of A and C kindergartens and the RDA did not show any significant difference from the standpoint of energy , riboflavin and niacin and also between B kindergarten and the RDA from the standpoint of protein ,riboflavin and niacin . However , the intakes of calcium and vit. A of kindergarten A children were significantly less than RDA and significantly more than RDA for protein , iron , thiamin and ascorbic acid , while the intakes of energy , calcium , iron , vit. A and thiamin by kindergarten B were significantly less than RDA and more ascorbic acid . Kindergarten C children , however , recieved significantly less calcium , iron and vit .A and significantly more protein , thiamin and ascorbic acid than RDA . The percentages of children according to the food groups intake were calculated and no significant differences (p < 0.05) were observed in the intakes of bread and cereals group and milk and its products group between A and C kindergartens children , while B children recieved significantly less amounts than A and C children . Concerning meats and eggs , however , significant differences ( p <0.05 ) were shown between children intakes of the three kindergartens , so that A recieved more amounts then both B and C and C recieved more than B . In regards of fruits and vegetables group , no significant differences ( p < 0.05 ) were reported between the intakes of B and C kindergartens , while A children recieved significantly more amounts than B and C children .

The Relationship Between The Levels Of Total Sialic Acid And Complement Proteins, C 3 And C 4, In The Chemotherapy-Untreated And –Treated Patients With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Haider S. Abid, Ghassan M. Sulaiman, Majid S.J. Al-Zaidy

Baghdad Science Journal

Blood samples were collected from chemotherapy-treated and -untreated patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Samples were analyzed for the serum levels of total sialic acid (TSA), C3, and C4, as well as TSA levels in the white blood cells (WBCs) homogenate. In the group of untreated patients, TSA levels in the sera and WBCs were significantly increased as compared to normal subjects. A similar significant increase was observed in the levels of serum C3 and C4. In the group of treated patients, TSA levels in the sera and WBCs were significantly reduced, while insignificant decreases were observed in the serum …

Predicting Physical Activity Among Low-Income Mexican American Women: Application Of The Theory Of Planned Behavior, Bobby Guinn, Vern Vincent, Layne Jorgensen, Donna Dugas, Tom Semper

Health & Human Performance Faculty Publications

Objectives : To utilize the theory of planned behavior (TPB) in explaining the prediction of physical activity intention and determine if present activity behavior attenuates theory construct relationships in a sample of low-income Mexican women.

Methods : Data were gathered on 201 subjects through a self-report survey instrument and analyzed through structural equation modeling.

Results : Present activity behavior attenuated theory construct influence on intention, and perceived behavioral control was the strongest predictor of intent to engage in physical activity.

Conclusions : Interventions promoting voluntary physical activity for this population group should address factors perceived as barriers to participating in …

Post‐Exercise Substrate Utilization After A High Glucose Vs. High Fructose Meal During Negative Energy Balance In The Obese, Thomas J. Tittelbach, Richard D. Mattes, Randall J. Gretebeck

College of Nursing Faculty Research and Publications

Objective: To assess the effects of negative energy balance on the metabolic response of a meal containing either glucose or fructose as the primary source of carbohydrate after exercise in obese individuals in energy balance, or negative energy balance.

Research Methods and Procedures: Fourteen adults with mean body mass index (BMI) 30.3 ± 1 kg/m², age 26 ± 2 years, and weight 93.5 ± 5.4 kg, adhered to an energy‐balanced (EB) or a negative energy‐balanced (NEB) diet for 6 days. On Day 7, subjects exercised at 70% VO_2peak for 40 minutes then consumed either high glucose …
