Impact of a participatory research intervention based on a citizen science approach on snacking consumption in European adolescents from deprived areas
Improving adolescent diets requires promising interventions, best developed through participatory research like Citizen Science (CS). The present study aimed to assess the impact of a CS intervention on the consumption of healthy and unhealthy snacking choices for adolescents living in deprived areas and the influence of gender, age, and socioeconomic status (SES) in snacking behaviour. SEEDS is a cluster-randomised controlled trial (c-RCT) in fo…
Comparison of the four co-created interventions to improve snacking and physical activity behaviour in European adolescents
Num. NCT05002049; Date: 2021-08-12
The effect of the Mid-Day Meal programme on the longitudinal physical growth from childhood to adolescence in India
The study aims to examine the effect of the world’s largest school-feeding programme, the Mid-Day Meal (MDM) programme, on the changes in the underweight prevalence among school-children in India. Data from the Indian Human Development Survey (IHDS) Rounds 1 (2004–05) and 2 (2011–12) were utilized. The sample included individual-level information of children aged 6 to 9 years in IHDS-1 who then turned 13 to 16 years in IHDS-2. The sample was cate…
Stakeholder perspectives on the barriers and facilitators of engagement in healthy lifestyle behaviours in underrepresented adolescents

A Compositional Analysis of Physical Activity, Sedentary Time, and Sleep and Associated Health Outcomes in Children and Adults with Cystic Fibrosis
This study sought to investigate the association of light physical activity (LPA), moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), sedentary time (SED), and sleep with lung function in children and adults with CF. In total, 86 children (41 females; 13.6 ± 2.8 years; FEV 1 % predicted : 86 ± 1%) and 43 adults (21 females; 24.6 ± 4.7 years; FEV 1 % predicted : 63 ± 21%) with CF participated in this study. Wrist-worn accelerometery was used to assess…
Sleep, Sedentary Time and Physical Activity Levels in Children with Cystic Fibrosis
The aim of this study was to compare the use of generic and cystic fibrosis (CF)-specific cut-points to assess movement behaviours in children and adolescents with CF. Physical activity (PA) was assessed for seven consecutive days using a non-dominant wrist-worn ActiGraph GT9X in 71 children and adolescents (36 girls; 13.5 ± 2.9 years) with mild CF. CF-specific and generic Euclidean norm minus one (ENMO) cut-points were used to determine sedentar…
Incorporating movement breaks into primary school classrooms; a mixed methods approach to explore the perceptions of pupils, staff and governors
There is a wide appeal for classroom-based activity breaks, when delivered in a manner that is not disruptive. Future research which examines the potential benefits of such activity breaks is warranted
Injuries and Training Practices in Competitive Adolescent Distance Runners
Background: Distance running is one of the most popular sports around the world. The epidemiology of running-related injury (RRI) has been investigated in adults, but few studies have focused on adolescent distance runners. Objectives: (1) To provide descriptive epidemiology of RRI (risks, rates, body regions/areas, and severity) and examine the training practices (frequency, volume, and intensity) of competitive adolescent distance runners (13–1…
Test–Retest Reliability of Handgrip Strength Measurement in Children and Preadolescents
The reliability of handgrip strength (HGS) measurement has been confirmed in adults but has been sparsely addressed in pediatric populations. The aims of this study are twofold: to determine whether sex, age and/or hand-dominance influence the test-retest differences and to establish the reliability level of the HGS measurement in typical developing pediatric participants. A total of 338 participants aged 7-13 years were tested using a digital ha…
Friends, Romans, Errors
From Montaigne’s essay “On Friendship” to popular philosophy of the mid twentieth and early twenty-first centuries (C.S. Lewis’ The Four Loves and Joseph Epstein’s Friendship: An Exposé ) to scholarship of the past few decades, this chapter shows how such texts rely to varying degrees upon the binarisms true/false, correct/incorrect, right/wrong in their descriptions and evaluations of Roman friendship. This chapter asks not whether this or that …
The Rhetoricity of Gender and the Ideal of Mediocritas in Vitruvius’s de Architectura
The Rhetoricity of Gender and the Ideal of Mediocritas in Vitruvius’s de Architectura Craig A. Williams In her interpretation of Vitruvius’s presentation of domestic architecture in Book 6 of de Architectura, Kristina Milnor argues that “the one place we might expect to find Roman women, the house, has been emptied of gender by Vitruvius, leaving it as a strikingly hypermasculine space, built to speak to and about men alone.”1 The incisive formul…
Infectious Diseases, Urbanization and Climate Change
China is one of the largest countries in the world with nearly 20% of the world's population. There have been significant improvements in economy, education and technology over the last three decades. Due to substantial investments from all levels of government, the public health system in China has been improved since the 2003 severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak. However, infectious diseases still remain a major population health i…
Effect of a program of short bouts of exercise on bone health in adolescents involved in different sports
The PRO-BONE study is designed to investigate the impact of osteogenic and non-osteogenic sports on bone development in adolescent males during puberty, and how a plyometric jump training programme is associated with body composition parameters
Reading Roman Friendship
This book invites us to approach friendship not as something that simply is, but as something performed in and through language. Roman friendship is read across a wide spectrum of Latin texts, from Catullus' poetry to Petronius' Satyricon to the philosophical writings of Cicero and Seneca, from letters exchanged by the Emperor Marcus Aurelius and his beloved teacher Fronto, to those written by men and women at an outpost in northern Britain. One …

Prostitution, Sexuality, and the Law in Ancient Rome
Ovid, Martial, and Poetic Immortality
Martial was clearly well read in Ovid. His epigrams display various turns of phrase and metrical features reminiscent of his predecessor, whom he cites on a number of occasions as an important figure in Roman poetry, sometimes implying that Ovid is second only to Virgil or even the equivalent of the latter in light verse. 1 Here I wish to consider the ways in which one of Ovid's meditations on his own poetic activity, Amores 1.15, leaves various …

Parchments of Gender
Parchments of Gender builds up an important source of inter-disciplinary information for the study of gender and the body in ancient history. The central and unifying theme is the body's relation to gender. With essays covering the ancient communities of Greece, Rome, and Judaea, the volume argues that the body is culturally constructed and not a sign of what is natural. Ancient bodies are parchments of gender: textual skins on which gender is in…

Greek love at Rome
It has long been a commonly held belief among classicists that traditional Romans frowned upon male homosexuality and associated it with the influence of Greek culture. There have always been exceptions to this belief, but when Paul Veyne published the following remarks in his 1978 article ‘La famille et l'amour sous le hautempire romain’, his views were quite heterodox: Il est faux que l'amour ‘grec’ soit, à Rome, d'origine grecque: comme plus d…
