  • Short-Term Effects of Using Pedometers to Increase Daily Physical Activity in Smokers: a Randomized Trial
    Short-Term Effects of Using Pedometers to Increase Daily Physical Activity in Smokers: A Randomized Trial Deme´tria Kovelis PT, Juliana Zabatiero PT, Karina Couto Furlanetto PT, Leandro Cruz Mantoani PT, Mahara Proenc¸a PT, and Fabio Pitta PhD BACKGROUND: In adults it is recommended that the minimum of 10,000 steps/day should be performed in order to consider an individual as active. The pedometer, a small device that counts steps, has been used to monitor and/or motivate physical activity in various populations. OBJEC- TIVE: To investigate the short-term effects of a protocol using a pedometer or an informative booklet to increase daily physical activity in apparently healthy smokers who reached or did not reach the minimum public health recommendation of 10,000 steps/day. METHODS: Subjects were who wore a pedometer every day ,(23 ؍ randomly assigned to 2 groups: group pedometer (GP, n who received ,(17 ؍ during 1 month, aiming to achieve 10,000 steps/day; and group booklet (GB, n a booklet with encouragement to walk as much as possible in everyday life. Each group was subdivided according to their baseline daily physical activity level: active (subjects who achieved 10,000 steps/day), and inactive (those who did not achieve this minimum). RESULTS: Only the physically inactive GP increased significantly its daily physical activity (pre vs post 7,670 [6,159– 9,402] steps/day vs 10,310 [9,483–11,110] steps/day, P < .001), with a concomitant increase in the 6-min walking test (6MWT) distance (mean and interquartile range 540 m [501–586 m] vs 566 m In GP, ⌬ post-pre steps/day correlated significantly with baseline number .(03.

  • Ivo Andric' Revisited
    UC Berkeley GAIA Research Series Title Ivo Andric Revisited: The Bridge Still Stands Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/8c21m142 Journal Research Series, uciaspubs/research/92 Author Vucinich, Wayne S. Publication Date 1995 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Ivo Andric Revisited: The Bridge Still Stands Edited by Wayne S. Vucinich Description: Ivo Andric won the 1961 Nobel Prize for Literature for an extraordinary body of fiction and poetry rooted in the politics and cultural history of the Balkans. Andric drew on his formal studies, political activism, diplomatic career, and extended residence in Bosnia, Croatia, and Serbia to explore the human links that have united the region, to argue that conflict is not inevitable, and to lay the basis for a unified Yugoslavia. Today, Andric is claimed by all Yugoslavs as their greatest literary figure, but tragically missing the point of his work, often criticized by each group for not championing its own particular cause. This volume explores many facets of Andric: the artist immersed in both the written and oral South Slavic literary traditions developing his own unique narrative style; the humanist examining the relationships of victimization, grief, shame, and art; the anthropologist analyzing the role of women and the dynamics of gender relations; and the historian peeling through the layers of local traditions and historical experience.
