Effects of Chinese Herbal Medicines on Growth Performance, Antioxidant Capacity, and Liver and Intestinal Health of Hybrid Snakehead (<i>Channa maculata</i> ♀ × <i>Channa. argus</i... by Jiamin Kang, Shuzhan Fei, Junhao Zhang, Haiyang Liu, Qing Luo, Mi Ou, Langjun Cui, Tao Li, Jian Zhao

“…Compared to the control group, the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in plasma and intestine was significantly increased in the FSE and CHMM groups, whereas the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in plasma and liver was significantly reduced in the SCE group. A 16s rRNA analysis indicates that dietary supplementation with FSE significantly promoted the proliferation of Fusobacteriota, while IRE supplementation increased the alpha diversity of intestinal bacteria. …”

The effect of single and dual task training on the intracortical inhibition in young and old adults by Michael Wälchli, Craig Tokuno, Benedikt Lauber, Wolfgang Taube

“…Based on the hypothesis that intracortical inhibition decreases during initial motor learning and increases in later stages, we hypothesize that a training duration of 3 weeks is sufficient to induce positive cortical modulation in young adults but not in older adults. References Kiss, R., Brueckner, D., & Muehlbauer, T. (2018). Effects of single compared to dual task practice on learning a dynamic balance task in young adults. …”
