  • Evaluation of lower limb flexibility among college students
    Lower limb flexibility is essential for optimal performance in various physical activities and sports, as well as for preventing injuries. Assessing the flexibility levels among college students can provide valuable insights into their physical fitness and potential risk factors for musculoskeletal issues. This study aimed to evaluate the lower limb flexibility among college students using standardized flexibility tests. The objectives were to determine the average flexibility levels among college students, identify any significant differences based on gender or physical activity levels, and assess the correlation between flexibility and overall physical fitness. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 112 college students aged 20-25 years. Lower limb flexibility was assessed using well-established tests such as the straight leg raise test, hip flexion and extension, knee flexion and extension. Participants also completed a questionnaire regarding their demographic information. The study found that the average lower limb flexibility among college students was within the normal range, with variations observed based on gender. Male students exhibited higher flexibility levels compared to females, and those engaged in regular physical activity demonstrated greater flexibility. The findings highlight the importance of incorporating flexibility training into college physical education programs to enhance students' overall physical fitness and reduce the risk of injuries. Gender differences in flexibility underscore the need for tailored exercise interventions to address specific needs. Furthermore, promoting regular physical activity among college students can contribute to maintaining and improving lower limb flexibility. This study provides valuable insights into the lower limb flexibility levels among college students and emphasizes the significance of promoting flexibility training and regular physical activity to enhance overall health and reduce injury risks. Future research should explore longitudinal studies to assess the effectiveness of flexibility interventions over time.

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of quadratus lumborum muscle stretching exercises in reducing mechanical low back pain among the young and middle-aged population of Haryana.
    This study explored the effectiveness of passive stretching of the quadratus lumborum (QL) muscle in individuals with mechanical low back pain (MLBP). Through six treatment sessions over 21 days, significant improvements were observed in back pain distribution. This study contributes valuable insights into addressing MLBP and advocates for the inclusion of QL stretching in clinical practice.Healthcare professionals commonly encounter low back pain, a widespread condition affecting individuals across all age groups and believed to be a leading cause of disability worldwide, in both developed and developing countries. While males are generally less affected than females, approximately 80% of patients report experiencing moderate to severe pain that significantly disrupts their daily routines. Quadratus lumborum muscle is already being used separately in different conditions, So there is a need to investigate the effectiveness of QL muscle for improving ADLS and reducing pain in patients with mechanical low back pain. The results suggest that QL stretching can reduce MLBP and enhance daily functioning. The findings underscore the importance of integrating QL stretching into physiotherapy protocols for MLBP management, offering a cost-effective and accessible treatment option.

  • Data on terpene content in pre-rolled paper cones infused with terpene-containing flavours based on the formation of a partially soluble precipitate
    The dataset comprises raw data from the absorbance measurement of flavor-containing terpene (FCT) infused in pre-rolled cone paper and glue. Measurement was performed using UV-Vis spectrophotometric method at a wavelength of 538 nm. FCT was directly used as the standard for expressing the terpene content equivalence. The measurement of FCT infused in pre-rolled cone paper and glue was initiated by extracting the terpene content using chloroform, formation of partially soluble reddish-brown precipitate using sulphuric acid, and the absorbance measurement of the precipitate. The decrement of the FCT content from infused pre-rolled cone paper and glue was performed after the incubation of the sample for 1 day and 7 day. The effect of several parameters on the decrement of FCT content was evaluated, that is the effect of tube sealing and additive (ethanol and polypropylene glycol) addition.

  • Data for "Ice Sheet Speed-dating: Using expert judgement to identify "good" simulations of the Last Glacial Maximum North American Ice Sheets"
    Data for Short Communication "Ice Sheet Speed-dating: Using expert judgement to identify "good" simulations of the Last Glacial Maximum North American Ice Sheets" in review at Quaternary Science Reviews. Abstract: After generating a large ensemble of palaeo ice sheet model runs, it is common to either rank the simulations, or classify each simulation as an acceptable match to observations or not. Both tasks require implicit human judgement, usually left to the discretion of the research authors. For instance, even numerical comparisons to reconstructions require human input on values for match thresholds and allowances for model-mismatch. We embrace the subjectivity of human judgement and calibrate an ice-sheet model by explicitly asking experts to identify simulations that are good enough. Expert judgement is made based on a set of features of the model output that is of interest (for example, margin shapes and regional ice volumes); where possible we also record such knowledge. By seeking the input of many experts, we obtain a community consensus that can be used to develop guidance to determine the quality of future simulations. This short communication describes our exercise in seeking expert classifications of simulations of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) North American Ice Sheets, discusses the lessons learnt, and suggests future analysis of the responses.

  • Effect of constipation on aerobic capacity in young adults.
    Constipation, a common gastrointestinal issue characterized by infrequent bowel movements or difficulty passing stools, can potentially impact various aspects of health beyond the digestive system. While its effects on factors like quality of life and gastrointestinal discomfort are well-documented, its influence on aerobic capacity in young adults remains an area warranting further exploration. Aerobic capacity, also known as cardiorespiratory fitness or maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max), refers to the maximum amount of oxygen the body can utilize during intense exercise. Understanding the relationship between constipation and aerobic capacity is essential for optimizing health outcomes and performance in this demographic. Therefore, the primary objective of this research is to investigate the potential impact of constipation on aerobic capacity in young adults. Therefore, the study will incorporate comprehensive assessments of these variables to better understand their role in shaping the observed associations. This study include 74 young adults aged 20 to 25, both male and female. The result shows the weak negative correlation between the constipation and aerobic capacity in young adults. Our study revealed a weak negative correlation between constipation and aerobic capacity in young adults, it's crucial to contextualize these findings within the broader landscape of factors influencing physical fitness. The observed association suggests that individuals experiencing more severe constipation may exhibit slightly reduced aerobic fitness levels, and vice versa.
