Alteration of theta timescale dynamics of hippocampal place cells by a cannabinoid is associated with memory impairment.

5 Oct 2009 The integrity of the hippocampus is critical for both spatial navigation and episodic memory, but how its neuronal firing patterns underlie those functions is not well understood. In particular, the modality by which hippocampal place cells ... Read more...

Hoof accelerations and ground reaction forces of Thoroughbred racehorses measured on dirt, synthetic, and turf track surfaces.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: To compare hoof acceleration and ground reaction force (GRF) data among dirt, synthetic, and turf surfaces in Thoroughbred racehorses. ANIMALS: 3 healthy Thoroughbred racehorses. PROCEDURES: Forelimb hoof accelerations and GRFs were ... Read more...

Lower limb position during treadmill jogging and fast running in microgravity.

29 Sep 2009 INTRODUCTION: The second-generation ISS treadmill has a faster maximum operating speed than the current ISS treadmill. In normal gravity (1 G), bone loading benefits and cardiorespiratory stress are directly related to locomotion speed. A kinematic ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Running'

Definition: An activity in which the body is propelled by moving the legs rapidly. Running is performed at a moderate to rapid pace and should be differentiated from JOGGING, which is performed at a much slower pace.

Descriptor UI: D012420

Alternative terms: Running; Runnings;

Allowable Qualifiers: classification; economics; education; history; injuries; legislation & jurisprudence; psychology; standards; trends; statistics & numerical data; ethics; physiology;

Tree Number: G11.427.590.530.568.610; G11.427.590.530.698.610; I03.450.642.845.610;

History Note: 76

Technical Notes: human & animal; / inj: coordinate IM with specific injury (IM); JOGGING and TRACK AND FIELD are also available; animals running in exercise wheel is probably MOTOR ACTIVITY or PHYSICAL EXERTION
