Allometric scaling of left ventricular mass by body dimensions in males and femalesA M Batterham
Department of Exercise and Sport Science, Manchester Metropolitan University, Crewe and Alsager Faculty, England
Med Sci Sports Exerc 29:181-6. 1997..78 and per FFM 1.07, respectively, (P < 0.05). This reveals quantitative differences in heart size independent of body dimensions. We conclude that sample specific AS permits meaningful intersubject or intergroup comparisons...
Can we use digital life-log images to investigate active and sedentary travel behaviour? Results from a pilot studyPaul Kelly
British Heart Foundation Health Promotion Research Group, University of Oxford, UK
Int J Behav Nutr Phys Act 8:44. 2011..The purpose of this pilot study is to investigate the potential efficacy of a new electronic measurement device, a wearable digital camera called SenseCam, in travel research...
Growth of left ventricular mass with military basic training in army recruitsAlan M Batterham
Health and Social Care Institute, Teesside University, Middlesbrough, United Kingdom
Med Sci Sports Exerc 43:1295-300. 2011..Exercise-induced left ventricular hypertrophy is well documented, but whether this occurs merely in line with concomitant increases in lean body mass is unclear...
Allometric modeling does not determine a dimensionless power function ratio for maximal muscular functionA M Batterham
School of Social Sciences, University of Teesside, Middlesbrough TS1 3BA, United Kingdom
J Appl Physiol 83:2158-66. 1997..97) for men and T = (-20.73 +/- 24.14) + (5. 662 +/- 0.722)M - (0.031 +/- 0.005)M2 (R2 = 0.92) for women. We conclude that allometric scaling should be applied only when all underlying model assumptions have been rigorously evaluated...
Modeling the influence of body size and composition on M-mode echocardiographic dimensionsA M Batterham
Department of Exercise and Sport Science, Manchester Metropolitan University, Crewe and Alsager Faculty, Cheshire, United Kingdom
Am J Physiol 274:H701-8. 1998..Because the 95% confidence interval for the FFM exponents included 0.33, we recommend that linear LV dimensions be indexed by the cube root of FFM. In the absence of FFM data, the root of BSA was found to be the best surrogate index...
Scaling cardiac structural data by body dimensions: a review of theory, practice, and problemsA M Batterham
University of Teesside, Middlesbrough, UK
Int J Sports Med 20:495-502. 1999..Future research should examine the robustness of the FFM-cardiac dimension relationship in large samples...
Modeling the influence of body size on V(O2) peak: effects of model choice and body compositionA M Batterham
School of Social Sciences, University of Teesside, Middlesbrough, TS1 3BA, United Kingdom
J Appl Physiol 87:1317-25. 1999..Utilizing FFM as the body-size variable revealed a linear relationship between body size and V(O2) peak, irrespective of model choice. We conclude that the population mass exponent for V(O2) peak is close to unity...
The impact of scalar variable and process on athlete-control comparisons of cardiac dimensionsK P George
Department of Exercise and Sport Science, Manchester Metropolitan University, Crewe and Alsager Faculty, Cheshire, United Kingdom
Med Sci Sports Exerc 30:824-30. 1998..This study compared linear left ventricular dimensions and mass (LVM), before and after normalizing for body dimensions via allometric and ratio-standard scaling...
Nevill's explanation of Kleiber's 0.75 mass exponent: an artifact of collinearity problems in least squares models?A M Batterham
Department of Exercise and Sport Science, Crew and Alsager Faculty, Manchester Metropolitan University, United Kingdom
J Appl Physiol 82:693-7. 1997..The derived exponents may thus be numerically inaccurate and unstable. In conclusion, the restoration of the mean mass exponent to the anticipated 2/3 may be a fortuitous statistical artifact...
Exercise training induced alterations in prepubertal children's lipid-lipoprotein profileK Tolfrey
Department of Exercise and Sport Science, Manchester Metropolitan University, Crewe Alsager Faculty, England
Med Sci Sports Exerc 30:1684-92. 1998..This study examined the effect of exercise training on prepubertal children's (ET, N = 28) lipid-lipoprotein profile, relative to a maturity matched control group (CON, N = 20)...
