Effect of Zinc Acetate and Magnesium Sulfate Dietary Supplementation on Broiler Thigh Meat Colour, Nutrient Composition and Lipid Peroxidation Values Under Continuous Heat Stress Condition

Annals of Animal Science (2014)

Ebrahim Norouzi‬Mohsen Daneshyar Parviz Farhoomand Javad Aliakbarlu F. Hamian

Abstract Four hundred and fifty one-day-old male broiler chicks (Ross 308) in 9 groups of 50 each (3 × 3 factorial experiment) were randomly allocated to investigate the effects of different dietary levels of 0, 30 and 60 mg/kg Zinc (Zn) and 0, 300 and 600 mg/kg magnesium (Mg) on thigh meat colour, nutrient composition and lipid peroxidation value in broiler chickens under heat stress. The birds were kept under a high temperature (32±1°C) for 24 h/day for the first until the final day. At the end of the experiment (day 42), five birds per treatment were slaughtered. Then two pieces of the right thigh muscle per bird (upper part of the thigh muscle) were immediately collected for assessing the meat quality indices. The results of the present experiment showed that addition of Zn and Mg did not influence the ash, dry matter (DM) and ether extract (EE) contents of thigh meat (P>0.05), whereas the crude protein (CP) content of the thigh meat was increased when diet was supplemented with Zn (P<0.05). Addition of Zn and Mg in diet did not change the mean lightness (L) and redness (a) value in the thigh meat (P>0.05). Thigh yellowness (b) value was increased by inclusion of 30 mg/kg Zn alone or along with 600 mg/kg Mg (P<0.05). Furthermore, inclusion of 30 mg/kg Zn in diet (at any level of Mg) decreased the thigh thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (P<0.05)

Active Leisure Time Predicts Happiness among Iranian Adults: A Study Comparing Adults with Physically Active versus Inactive Lifestyle

Perspectives In Psychiatric Care (2023)

Rasool Norouzi Seyed Hossini Sahar Khanizadeh Fereshteh Mohebbi Zainab Mirzaeian Vanab Alexandra J. Bratty

Physical activity (PA) has been shown to have positive effects on mental well‐being. However, previous research has mostly concentrated on the negative effects of inactivity on mental well‐being and examined the use of PA as a preventive or therapeutic treatment for mental disorders, rather than a proactive method of enhancing mental well‐being. Therefore, there is a need to consider the connection between PA and enhanced mental well‐being, such as happiness. The current study sought to examine the levels of happiness among active and inactive adults. The study’s participants were Iranian adults between 18 and 60 years. Data were gathered using a modified version of the 29‐item Oxford 2002 Happiness Questionnaire and a researcher‐developed leisure and PA questionnaire. N = 541 individuals completed the online survey, including n = 373 (68.9%) women and n = 168 (31.1%) men. More than half of Iranians (55.1%) reported low or moderate levels of happiness, and that those who engaged in active leisure pursuits reported significantly higher levels of happiness than those who were inactive during leisure time. The results of this cross‐sectional study suggest that engaging in PA during leisure time predicts happiness. Encouraging Iranian adults to be more physically active during leisure time could increase happiness levels and thus contribute to the sustainable happiness and well‐being of society.

Better sleep quality and higher physical activity levels predict lower emotion dysregulation among persons with major depression disorder

BMC Psychology (2023)

Leeba Rezaie Ebrahim Norouzi‬Alexandra J. Bratty Habibolah Khazaie

Abstract Background People with Major Depression Disorders (MDD) often complain about sleep problems and experience emotion dysregulation. Prior research suggests physical activity can improve both sleep quality and emotional control. However, there is limited research on emotion regulation and the impact of physical activity and sleep in this population. Objectives The present study examined the relationships between sleep quality, emotion regulation, and physical activity levels among patients with MDD. Methods The sample consisted of 118 patients with MDD (mean age: 31.85 years) who completed questionnaires on sleep quality, physical activity, emotion regulation, and depression. Results Results showed that more sleep problems were associated with worse emotion dysregulation, and more physical activity was associated with fewer sleep problems and less emotion dysregulation. Furthermore, physical activity and sleep quality significantly predicted emotion dysregulation, with physical activity being the stronger predictor. Conclusions Results from this study suggest that individuals with MDD who are able to engage in physical activity and get better sleep could experience emotional regulation benefits.

Combined virtual reality and physical training improved the bimanual coordination of women with multiple sclerosis

Neuropsychological Rehabilitation (2020)

Ebrahim Norouzi‬Markus Gerber Uwe Pühse Mohammad Vaezmosavi Serge Brand

As their illness progresses, patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) may suffer from motor impairments. In the present study, we examined the effectiveness of three interventions for learning a bimanual coordination task: Virtual reality training (VRT), conventional physical training (CPT), and the combination of VRT and CPT (COMB). A total of 45 women with MS were randomly assigned to one of the following study conditions: VRT, CPT or COMB. Bimanual coordination was assessed at baseline, eight weeks later at study completion, and 4 weeks after that at follow-up. Bimanual coordination improved over time from baseline to study completion and to follow-up. Compared to the VRT and CPT conditions, the COMB condition led to higher coordination accuracy and consistency. The combination thus appears to have the potential to speed up the recovery of motor control and rehabilitation of women with MS.

An external focus promotes motor learning of an aiming task in individuals with hearing impairments

European Journal of Sport Science (2024)

Zahra Samadi Rasool Abedanzadeh Ebrahim Norouzi‬Reza Abdollahipour

Abstract Research has shown that external relative to internal focus (IF) instructions may improve motor performance as well as cognitive function (e.g., attentional stability and task‐focus). The aim of the study was to examine the influence of attentional focus instructions on skill acquisition and learning of an aiming task in individuals with hearing impairments. The participants ( N = 39, M age = 17.87 ± 1.88 years) performed a bowling task with their dominant hand to knock down as many pins as possible. On day 1, they were randomly divided into three attentional focus groups; IF (focus on your throwing hand), external focus (EF) (focus on the pins), and control (no‐focus) instructions. Each participant performed 36 trials, divided into 3 blocks of 12 trials. Attentional focus instructions were given before each block, with a brief reminder provided after each 3 trials. On day 2, retention and transfer (further distance) tests were performed. Results showed that while there were no significant differences between groups in the pre‐test, the EF group outperformed both IF and control groups in retention and transfer tests. No significant difference was found between the control and IF. The findings suggest that the advantages of the external relative to the IF and no‐focus instructions may generalize to individuals with hearing impairments.

Dual-task training on cognition and resistance training improved both balance and working memory in older people

The Physician and Sportsmedicine (2019)

Ebrahim Norouzi‬Mohammad Vaezmosavi Markus Gerber Uwe Pühse Serge Brand

Objectives: With increasing age, declines in executive functions and basic motor skills such as posture control, muscle strength, and balance performance have been observed. However, no intervention has focused on enhancing both executive functions and balance performance concomitantly. Accordingly, the aim of the present study is to investigate whether and to what extent two different dual-task interventions improved both working memory and balancing. Specifically, we examined whether either a motor-cognitive dual task training (mCdtt) or a motor-motor dual-task training (mMdtt) impacted more favorably on working memory and on balance performance among a sample of older adults.Methods: A total of 60 older males (mean age: 68.31 years; SD = 3.83) were randomly assigned either to the mCdtt, the mMdtt or to control condition. Balance performance and working memory performance were tested at baseline, four weeks later at study completion, and again 12 weeks later at follow-up.Results: Balance and working memory improved from baseline to post-intervention and to follow-up (significant Time effect), but more so in the mCdtt compared to the mMdtt condition (significant Time × Group interaction). Further, compared to the mMdtt condition, higher scores were observed in the mCdtt condition (significant Group effect).Conclusion: Dual-task interventions improved both balance performance and working memory, but more so if cognitive performance was specifically trained along with resistance training.
