Abstract Fault temperatures govern their weakening and control the dynamics of earthquakes during slip.Despite predictions of significant temperature rise within fault gouges during earthquake events, observations of frictional melting zones along exhumed faults are relatively rare.Could there be a heat transfer mechanism, previously not considered

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a ballistic or non-ballistic concentric-only bench press (COBP) on subsequent plyometric push-up performance.Fourteen resistance trained men completed two separate Mynydd Mawr one-repetition-maximum (1RM) testing sessions followed by three randomized experimental explosive push-up sessions.The

A novel innate immune strategy, involving specific cholesterol oxidation products as effectors, has begun to reveal connections between cholesterol metabolism and immune response against viral infections.Indeed, 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC) and 27-hydroxycholesterol (27HC), physiologically produced by enzymatic oxidation of cholesterol, act as inhi
