The Effects of Localized Vibration on Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness Following Intense Eccentric Cycling
By Fredrick J Peters
Kent State University, USA
Published: May 04, 2017 | pg. no: 45
Abstract: Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is musculoskeletal pain resulting from physical activity. DOMS affects athletic performance; therefore therapy is of interest to athletes. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of localized vibration (biomechanical muscle stimulation, BMS) on biomarkers of DOMS following eccentric cycling, and to test changes ...[Read more]

Likelihood-Based Estimation of Dynamic Transmission Model Parameters for Seasonal Influenza by Fitting to Age and Season Specific ILI Data
By Michael Waithaka
University of Hasselt, Belgium
Published: Mar 24, 2017 | pg. no: 1-15
Abstract: Mathematical models provide important practical insights into the epidemiology of infectious diseases, and concepts derived from such models are widely used in the design of infection control programmes. This project was aimed at directly estimating the parameters of a dynamic transmission model using likelihood-based estimation methods, by fitting the model to age-specific influenza-like-illness ...[Read more]
