Abstract:
Background: Obesity is accumulation of excessive fat in adipose tissue due to which endurance is decreased leading to negative impact on cardiovascular endurance. The prevalence of obesity in females is more than in males that is 44.7%. Obesity leads to decrease in endurance and thus negative impact on cardiovascular endurance. VO2max is common measure of cardiopulmonary fitness. Endurance training leads to increased mitochondrial activity which decreases lactic acid accumulation at given VO2 and improving performance by enhancing fat oxidation. Fartlek training is a speed play which leads to improve the endurance capacity. Thus this study was aimed to find the effectiveness of Fartlek training on maximum oxygen consumption in young obese females. Material and Methodology: 30 subjects with obesity class I (n=30) were selected in this study, with age group 18-25 years based on inclusion and exclusion criteria with their consent. Fartlek training was given 4 days per week for 5 weeks. Queens College step test was used to assess the pre and post effects of the training. Results: Fartlek training showed significant effect on maximum oxygen consumption. Mean pre queens college step test of young obese females receiving Fartlek training was 39.2. Mean post queens college step test for the same was 42.2. The mean difference pre and post queens college step up test is zero (p=0.000). Conclusion: The study concluded that there was significant effect of Fartlek training on maximum oxygen consumption in young obese females. Key words: Obesity, young females, Cardiovascular endurance, Fartlek training, Queens College step test.

Abstract:
A number of submaximal step tests have been developed to predict maximal aerobic capacity. Because step height may influence biomechanical efficiency and heart rate, step tests based on subjects' stature may more accurately predict maximal aerobic capacity. Eighteen women performed the Queens College step test and a modified Queens College step test. The modified step test was performed with the height of the bench set even with the height of the foot at a knee angle of 90°. Analysis of the data indicated a lower recovery heart rate following this test ( p<.05). Further, correlations between maximal aerobic capacity and recovery heart rate for both tests were moderate ( r = −.80 and −.75, respectively). Our results suggest that step tests based on subjects' stature do not more accurately predict aerobic capacity than those using a standardized bench height.

Abstract:
Background: The Queens College Step Test is used to determine aerobic fitness. Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR) is the maximum rate of forceful exhalation following full inspiration. PEFR primarily reflects bronchial airflow and depends on the voluntary effort and muscular strength of the individual. Studies that correlate ventilatory capacity with body fat percentage are rare in published literature in Nepalese settings. Body fat percentage is regarded as a better indicator of obesity recently. Hence, this study aims to find an association between post-exercise change in PEFR and body adiposity in the context of Nepal. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out from 20th July 2019 to 15th November in the laboratory of Clinical Physiology of Maharajgunj Medical Campus. Body fat percentage was measured by using OMRON BF 214. Pre-exercise PEFR of each subject was recorded by using Wright’s peak flow meter. Post-exercise PEFR was also recorded after three minutes of Queen’s College step test, which is the submaximal exercise test, and change in PEFR was calculated and correlated with body fat percentage. Result: The study showed a negative correlation of change in PEFR with body fat percentage (r=-0.324; P<0.001). A significant difference (P = 0.002) was observed between different quartiles of body fat percentage. A highly significant difference (P = 0.003) was noted with the first and fourth quartiles. Conclusion: Less ventilatory adjustment in response to exercise was noted in subjects with more body fat percentage compared to those with less body fat percentage.

Abstract:
To perform a physical performance test is a good way to keep track of one’s health and can be beneficial to find evidence of deviations in the body. This thesis focuses on the development of a mobile-based heart rate algorithm that can be used with the Queens College Step Test, on the behalf of Mobistudy. Mobistudy wants to include such a test in their mobile application which aims to become a tool for researchers to use to gather data. The algorithm uses the mobile device’s camera to collect data from the user’s finger and uses that data to calculate the heart rate. The algorithm was first tested with data collected during the development and the results has an average error of less than 5% and a standard deviation of less than 3%. Two participants between the age of 20-25 performed three sets each of the Queens College Step Test and the results showed that the algorithm was accurate in its estimation of the heart rate after the test.
Genom att utföra ett test av ens fysiska prestanda kan man utvärdera ens hälsostatus och upptäcka indikationer på avvikelser i kroppen. Syftet med detta arbete är att utveckla en mobilbaserad algoritm som kan beräkna och uppskatta ens puls när man utför the Queens College Step Test på begäran av Mobistudy. Mobistudy vill inkludera detta test i deras mobilapplikation som fokuserar på att kunna användas som ett verktyg inom forskning för att samla in data. Algoritmen använder sig av mobilens kamera för att samla in data från användarens finger och använder den insamlade data för att beräkna pulsen. Algoritmen testades först gentemot data som samlades in vid utvecklingsstadiet och resultatet visade på att genomsnittliga felet var under 5% samt att standardavvikelsen var under 3%. Två deltagare mellan åldern 20 och 25 utförde tre tester var utav the Queens College Step Test och resultatet visade att algoritmen var tillräckligt noggrann i sin uppskattning av pulsen efter ett utfört test.

Abstract:
Résumé : Le CLW (Chiasson, Lasnier et Whittom, 2005), un test à doubles marches sous-maximal (Step test) qui mesure le VO[indice inférieur 2max], requiert peu d’espace et exige 6 min 30 s à réaliser. Or, est-ce que le CLW peut remplacer un test de course comme le test navette de 20 mètres (Léger et Gadoury, 1989) ou le 12 minutes de Cooper (Cooper, 1968) lorsque l’espace n’est pas adéquat pour les effectuer? Soixante étudiants (es) du cégep de l’Abitibi-Témiscamingue âgés de 17 à 20 ans ont été sélectionnés à l’intérieur des cours d’éducation physique et ont accompli les trois tests physiques. L’objectif premier était de vérifier la capacité du CLW à prédire les résultats des tests de course navette de 20 mètres (Léger et Gadoury, 1989) et le 12 minutes de Cooper (Cooper, 1968). Deuxièmement, connaître si l’ajout d’un troisième palier au CLW était nécessaire pour une meilleure similarité entre les tests. Finalement, déterminer si une catégorisation des résultats permet une meilleure concordance. Cette étude n’a pas été en mesure de démontrer que le CLW est capable de prédire les performances des tests de course navette de 20 mètres et le 12 minutes de Cooper chez les étudiants du cégep de l’Abitibi-Témiscamingue. Par le fait même, l’ajout d’un troisième palier n’améliore pas de façon significative la capacité du CLW à prédire les performances des tests de course. Toutefois, le CLW s’avère être un meilleur prédicteur de la performance chez les femmes lorsque nous comparons les données brutes du VO[indice inférieur 2max]. Étant donné certaines faiblesses de cette étude, dont l’absence d’une mesure directe, nous recommandons des recherches futures pour comparer ces trois tests à une mesure directe du VO[indice inférieur 2max] pour déterminer lequel de ces tests est le plus approprié pour la clientèle générale du cégep de l’Abitibi-Témiscamingue. // Abstract : The CLW (Chiasson and Lasnier Whittom , 2005), a double steps test to measure VO[subscript 2max], has the advantage of being submaximal , to require little space and require only 6 min 30 s to achieve. Is the CLW can replace a running test as 20 meters shuttle test (Léger and Gadoury, 1989) or 12 minutes of Cooper (Cooper, 1968) when the space is not adequate to perform those running tests? Until now, no writing is not publicly available on the CLW and no one has yet measured the capacity of CLW to predict performance in the 20 meters shuttle test and test 12 minutes Cooper. Sixty students, divided by sex, selected within the physical education classes, have completed those physical tests. The objective of this research was to verify the capacity of CLW to predict the results of 20 meters shuttle run and the 12-minutes Cooper. In a second step, compared the results obtained to know if adding a third level to CLW is necessary for a better match between these tests. Finally, we grouped the values in class to determine if we can get a better result. This study did not demonstrate the CLW is able to predict the performance of 20 meters shuttle run test and 12 minutes of Cooper among our groups. Thereby, adding a third level does not improve significantly its ability to predict the performance of the run tests. However, the CLW proves to be a better predictor of performance in women when comparing raw data results obtained. Given some weaknesses of this study, as the a direct mesure to compare with, then we recommend that futures researches must compare these three tests with a direct measure of VO[subscript 2max] to determine which of these tests is most appropriate.

Abstract The purposes of this study were to examine the reliability and validity of predicting maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) by gradually step and 1600m walk-run tests. Then we tried to find out the best multiple regression equations for predicting VO2max. Subjects were 34 healthy male students at NPTTC. Mean age, body height and weight were 19.3±1.4 years, 173.5±5.7 cm and 70.0±9.7 kg respectively. All subjects performed the gradually step and 1600m walk-run and Bruce treadmill VO2max tests, 11 subjects performed retest’s reliability three days later. The results indicated that time and frequency of the exhaustive stepping test and time of 1600m walk-run test were significantly correlated with VO2max. (r=.83, r=.82, r=-.85 ;p<.05), the test-retest reliabilities were equal to (r=.95, r=.88, r=.84, p<.05). We found that predicting VO2max by gradually step and 1600m walk-run tests were a valid and reliable exercise test mode. The best multiple regression equations of predicting VO2max included: VO2max=67.466+0.06434(step test time; sec)-0.04922(step test frequency; beat/min)-0.239(peak heart rate of step test; beat/min). VO2max=108.103-0.06658(seconds of 1600m walk-run; sec/min)-0,244(HR3 of step test)-0.183(rest heart rate; beat/min). It was concluded that the regression equations were able to predict the VO2max of male college students effectively. If physical education teachers have to estimate the cardiovascular fitness in the future, they can use the regression equations and get the predicting VO2max.

Since ancient times, aromatherapy is closely linked with daily life, applied covering the body, mind, and spirit. There are two ways for essential oils to enter the body: the smell, and the percutaneous absorption. Compared to percutaneous absorption, the sense of smell has more profound effects on humans. However, the clinical effects of essential oils were mainly personal experiences of the authors, and lack of empirical scientific basis. 　 　　According to the statistics of the Department of Health, cardiovascular disease is the No.2 leading cause of death of people in 2010. Physical fitness exercise and aerobic exercise to improve cardiorespiratory fitness, therefore, are the key policy which the Department of Health and the Ministry of Education actively promote. It is known that sports excite sympathetic nervous system, which results in acceleration of the cardio rhythm in normal healthy people; after exercises, sympathetic activity is quickly suppressed and parasympathetic activity increases, causing heart rate decreases rapidly. Will aromatic odor affect this regulatory mechanism and make the heart rate recovery process become smoother? 　 　　In this study, we chose 3-minute stepping exercise as standard to investigate the impact of essential oils on College female students during heart rate recovery. The results showed that the stepping exercise cause heart rate variability decreased significantly, and did not change much within the five minutes resting time. On the other hand, RMSSD, representing the parasympathetic activity, increased fast and significantly in the first three minutes, a result consistent with the trend of heart rate recovery, followed by a slow-changing phase, suggesting the existence of a two-stage process. Eucalyptus or jasmine essential oil does not make significant differences during the fast-changing phase if we use windows of 30 seconds in analysis. Eucalyptus seems to give better results in enhancing the activation of the parasympathetic nerves, however, when a window of 60 seconds were used.

Abstract:
North Carolina has always had a solid hip-hop scene, even if the state’s “Cackalacka” nickname has been synonymous with “rural rube” ever since the Queens trio A Tribe Called Quest’s 1991 song “Scenario” (“New York, North Cackalacka and Compton…”). Rap hit-makers to emerge from North Carolina in the 1990s include Sanford’s Black Sheep, of “The Choice Is Yours” fame; and Lords of the Underground, a trio that formed at Raleigh’s Shaw University. In 2001, the year that Petey Pablo hit it big with the North Carolina hit anthem “Raise Up,” Little Brother formed at Durham’s NC Central University. Little Brother was proudly old-school in sound as well as outlook, a throwback to the Tar Heel state’s soul-era glory days, and the group had a good run before winding down around 2010. Little Brother producer/deejay 9th Wonder (Patrick Douthit) has emerged as a major figure in college classrooms.

Abstract:
At the heart of Harvard lay the College. Half of the University’s students were there, as was most of the history that fueled the Harvard mystique. Undergraduate tuition and the contributions of well-heeled College alumni provided much of the income on which the University depended. But the elitist, inbred College culture posed a substantial obstacle to Conant’s goal of a more meritocratic Harvard. Admission was the first step in the student life cycle, and admissions policy went far to set the tone of the College. Eliot did not pay much attention to the matter. But his successor Lowell wanted students who would be a social elite. Catholic students were quite acceptable to him: in comportment and values they passed his entry test for the leadership class. So, too—more doubtfully—did wealthy, assimilated German Jews, though assuredly not their Russian-Jewish brethren. Anne MacDonald, executive secretary of the admissions office since the beginning of the century, was one of those women then (and now) essential to the smooth functioning of Harvard. In a 1934 memorandum to Conant, she explained the workings of her bailiwick. She and her opposite numbers at Yale (a Miss Elliot), Princeton (a Miss Williams), and the College Entrance Examination Board (a Miss McLaughlin) met yearly “to compare notes on all matters concerning admission, and the different ways in which they are treated at the three universities.” Some of her work required special handling: “The interviews with rejected Hebrews or their relatives are particularly precarious, and one needs to be constantly on the alert. . . . For the past ten years, or since the restriction [Harvard’s unofficial Jewish quota] we have been particularly fortunate in settling these cases.” But there were snakes in this admissions Garden of Eden. A substantial portion of each entering class failed to meet the academic standards of the College: 30 to 40 percent of freshmen had unsatisfactory records in the early 1930s. And the student body was too parochial: in 1931 Harvard had the highest portion (40 percent) of students from its home state among the nation’s major colleges.

Abstract:
In this chapter, we focus on writing a Methods section for a journal-quality paper. We begin with the Methods section because this is the section that many chemists write first, in part because this section describes what they know best: the procedures they have repeated (many times) to conduct their work. Moreover, most research groups use similar methodologies for several years; hence, previously written Methods sections can serve as models for writing new Methods sections. Together, these factors make the Methods section one of the easier sections to write and an excellent place to begin our writing instruction. By the end of this chapter, you will be able to do the following: ■ Know how to address the intended audience of a Methods section ■ Recognize which details to include and exclude from a Methods section ■ Organize a Methods section following standard moves ■ Use capitalization, abbreviations, and parentheses appropriately ■ Format numbers and units correctly ■ Use verb tense and voice in conventional manners As you work through the chapter, you will write a Methods section for your own paper. The Writing on Your Own tasks throughout the chapter will guide you step by step as you do the following: 3A Read the literature 3B Describe materials 3C Describe experimental methods 3D Describe numerical methods 3E Practice peer review 3F Fine-tune your Methods section The purpose of the Methods section is to address how a particular work was conducted. Relevant information about instrumentation and experimental and/ or numerical procedures is described. The goal is to describe the information in enough detail that an expert (not a novice) could repeat the work. Usually, this section is formally called, for example, Materials and Methods or Experimental Section, but for brevity, we call it simply the Methods section. Many of you have written a Methods section previously for a college-level chemistry course. Thus, we begin with an exercise to test your current knowledge about writing a Methods section.
