Insulinlike Growth Factor 1- And 2-Augmented Collagen Gel Repair Of Facial Osseous Defects, James S. Toung, Roy C. Ogle, Raymond F. Morgan, William H. Lindsey
Medical Diagnostics & Translational Sciences Faculty Publications
BACKGROUND: Defects of the facial bone structure are common problems for the facial plastic surgeon. Native type 1 collagen gels (T1CGs) have been shown to mediate repair of facial critical-size defects in rat models.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of T1CG augmented with insulinlike growth factor (IGF) 1, IGF-2, and a combination of IGF-1 and IGF-2 on the repair of facial critical-size defects in a rodent model.
METHODS: Twenty-four retired male breeder Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 4 groups of 6 animals. Facial critical-size defects were created by removing the nasalis bones with a bone-cutting drill. Defects were treated with …

Objectives-To study the effects of a supervised, intensive (85% of one repetion maximum (1-RM)) 14 week resistance training programme on lipid profile and body fat percentage in healthy sedentary, premenopausal women.
Subjects-Twenty four women (mean (SD) age 27 (7) years) took part in the study Subjects were randomly assigned to either a non-exercising control group or a resistance exercise training group. The resistance exercise training group took part in supervised 45-50 minute resistance training sessions (85% of 1-RM I), three days a week on non-consecutive days for 14 weeks. The control group did not take part in any …

(First paragraph) In an earlier issue of ACSM's Health & Fitness Journal (Sept/Oct, 988), Barry A. Franklin, Ph. D., FACSM, president of ACSM, authored an article called," Pumping Iron: Rationale, Benefits, Safety, and Prescription" where he presented evidence supporting the health benefits of resistance training an anaerobic type of exercise training. As we all know, aerobic endurance exercise training also conveys multiple health benefits.
