    Abstract BACKGROUND: It has been posited that the consumption of extra protein (> 0.8 g/kg/d) may be deleterious to bone mineral content. However, there is no direct evidence to show that consuming a high-protein diet results in a demineralization of the skeleton. Thus, the primary endpoint of this randomized controlled trial was to determine if a high-protein diet affected various parameters of whole body and lumbar bone mineral content in exercise-trained women. METHODS: Twenty-four women volunteered for this 6-month investigation (n = 12 control, n = 12 high-protein). The control group was instructed to consume their habitual diet; however, the high-protein group was instructed to consume ≥2.2 g of protein per kilogram body weight daily (g/kg/d). Body composition was assessed via dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Subjects were instructed to keep a food diary via the mobile app MyFitnessPal®. Exercise or activity level was not controlled. Subjects were asked to maintain their current levels of exercise. RESULTS: During the 6-month treatment period, there was a significant difference in protein intake between the control and high-protein groups (mean±SD; control: 1.5±0.3, high-protein: 2.8±1.1 g/kg/d); however, there were no differences in the consumption total calories, carbohydrate or fat. Whole body bone mineral density did not change in the control (pre: 1.22±0.08, post: 1.22±0.09 g/cm2) or high-protein group (pre: 1.25±0.11, post: 1.24±0.10 g/cm2). Similarly, lumbar bone mineral density did not change in the control (pre: 1.08±0.16, post: 1.05±0.13 g/cm2) or high-protein group (pre: 1.07±0.11, post: 1.08±0.12 g/cm2). In addition, there were no changes in whole body or lumbar T-Scores in either group. Furthermore, there were no changes in fat mass or lean body mass. CONCLUSION: Despite an 87% higher protein intake (high-protein versus control), 6 months of a high-protein diet had no effect on whole body bone mineral density, lumbar bone mineral density, T-scores, lean body mass or fat mass.

    Abstract: BACKGROUND: A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene is a strong predictor of obesity in humans. The FTO SNP (rs1421085) results in a T to C nucleotide substitution that may result in an increased risk for ... ...

    Abstract BACKGROUND: A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene is a strong predictor of obesity in humans. The FTO SNP (rs1421085) results in a T to C nucleotide substitution that may result in an increased risk for obesity in individuals who carry at least one C allele. The purpose of this investigation was to characterize the FTO genotype in a cohort of exercise-trained men and women. METHODS: We tested 108 exercise-trained individuals that included professional mixed martial arts fighters, competitive distance runners, collegiate swimmers, stand-up paddlers as well as a cohort of recreational bodybuilders. Body composition was assessed via dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Saliva samples were collected in order to genotype participants and quantify cortisol levels. RESULTS: The physical characteristics of the subjects were as follows (mean±SD): body weight 74.5±15.6 kg; height 171.5±9.5 cm; bone mineral content 2.8±0.7 kg; fat mass 15.7±5.5 kg; lean body mass 55.9±14.4 kg; % body fat 21.6±7.0. Independent samples t tests showed that C allele carriers (n = 54) had significantly higher fat mass t(106) = 3.13, p < 0.01 and body fat percentage t(106) = 2.68, p < 0.01, relative to the TT group (n = 54) (i.e., fat mass: C/− 17.3 ±5.6 kg, TT 14.2±4.6 kg; body fat percentage: C/− group 23.4±7.4%, TT group 19.9±6.2). No other measures of body composition were associated with the FTO genotype (i.e., body mineral density, bone mineral content, or lean body mass). Moreover, cortisol levels were significantly higher in the TT group relative to the C allele carriers t(106) = 2.37, p = 0.02 (i.e., TT 0.35 ±0.35 μg/dL, C/− 0.22±0.16 μg/dL). CONCLUSIONS: Our findings demonstrate a relationship between C allele carriers on the FTO gene and a predisposition to a higher fat mass and body fat percentage. In addition, we found no relationship between cortisol and fat mass. However, due to the cross-sectional nature of this investigation, we cannot infer causality regarding the FTO gene and body composition.

    Abstract El urbanismo táctico emergió en la última década como un mecanismo de generación de espacio público desde abajo, subversivo y espontáneo. Esta práctica fue rápidamente adoptada por administraciones públicas como una nueva herramienta de transformación del espacio público. Esta contradicción es el marco para analizar esta forma institucional de urbanismo táctico a través del programa Piazze Aperte en Milán. El caso analizado es el de Piazza Gasparri en la Comasina, barrio periférico que participó en este programa impulsado por su comité de barrio. El análisis describe el proceso de transformación y elabora una serie de reflexiones sobre esta práctica emergente.

    Abstract Cabe às organizações desportivas, ODs, serem fatores da plena garantia de isenção, integridade e inclusão, com especial atenção à proteção dos mais vulneráveis, propiciando as condições indispensáveis para que beneficiem de um ambiente seguro no desporto e aí possam dar expressão às suas competências. O desporto, não devendo assumir posições de ativismo político, tem a obrigação, enquanto sistema, de identificar os anátemas de exclusão, potenciais fatores de ameaça à integridade, em determinados contextos sociais, corrigi-los e funcionar como potencial agente catalisador de mudanças sociais globais. O desporto deve pressupor a existência de igualdade de oportunidades na participação de pessoas sem discriminação, por motivos: étnicos, religiosos, deficiência, género, orientação sexual, classe social; não devendo ser ele próprio promotor de ameaças à integridade pela assunção de irracionalidades de critério com consequências no próprio desporto e a eventuais retroversões sociais. Algumas destas ameaças já se encontram sublimadas pela ação diligente e vanguardista do desporto e das ODs nas mudanças positivas no sentido de valorizar o mérito acima de tudo. Outras, como no caso da garantia de equidade de género em funções desportivas relevantes - os que dirigem equipas ou federações nacionais e internacionais - pressupõem ainda um longo caminho a percorrer, quer de enquadramento legislativo, no âmbito do regime jurídico das federações desportivas, quer de repercussão social. Uma das maiores ameaças atuais à integridade desportiva é a questão de género. A participação de transgéneros no desporto tornou-se um tópico atual e sensível. Se, por um lado, há o desejo de inclusão e de assumir a diversidade como algo positivo, incentivando a participação, por outro, corremos o risco de prejudicar, mesmo destruir, a competitividade das mulheres no desporto de alto nível, algo que deve ser protegido. No caso particular existe muita confusão, diria mesmo desconhecimento, misturando conceitos, implicações e decisões. ...

    Abstract El presente trabajo se dirige a reflexionar sobre los sistemas de resolución de conflictos desde la ciencia del derecho procesal. A partir de los diversos estudios jurídico-procesales procuramos situar y aproximarnos a la institución arbitral como medio heterónomo de resolución de conflictos, especialmente en relación al proceso debido y sus garantías. Así mismo, procuramos analizar críticamente la concepción y límites del arbitraje, desde los parámetros de la Doctrina del Tribunal Constitucional español.
