Function of the lower esophageal sphincter during and after high-intensity exercise
Article Abstract:
The influence of exercise with and without ingestion of fluid on the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) barrier pressure (PB) in asymptomatic individuals was determined. High-intensity exercise was found to reduce LES PB during exercise during exercise, and the magnitude of the exercise-induced impairment in LES function remained unaffected by ingestion of a sports drink.

Gender differences in head-neck segment dynamics stabilization during head acceleration
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted to determine whether gender differences existed in head-neck segment kinematic and neuromuscular control variables responses to an external force application with and without neck muscle preactivation. The result showed that the females exhibited significantly greater head-neck segment peak angular acceleration and displacement than males.

Effect of foot orthoses on tibialis posterior activation in persons with pes planus
Article Abstract:
The influence of footwear on tibialis posterior (TP) activation in persons with pes planus is examined. It is concluded that wearing the foot orthoses and shoes improved selective activation of the TP in persons with flat feet.
