Comparison of Common High-risk Pregnancy Conditions Between Health Start and Non-Health Start ParticipantsStump, Marla Krysteen 01 May 2012 (has links)
A Thesis submitted to The University of Arizona College of Medicine - Phoenix in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Medicine. / Context: Health Start is a program run by the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) that utilizes community health workers to educate at-risk pregnant women and new mothers throughout many of the underserved regions of Arizona. The Health Start Curriculum - the tool used to educate community health workers on prenatal and infant care - is currently undergoing a revision. This project is intended to examine medical risk factors and birth outcomes unique to Health Start participants in order to provide information that will be considered when revising the curriculum.
Objective: To compare the prevalence of medical risk factors and selected birth outcomes of women actively enrolled in Health Start to their age-matched, race/ethnicity-matched, and delivery method-of-payment-matched counterparts.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Arizona Department of Health Services Bureau of Women’s and Children’s Health using the birth certificate data from women who gave birth in Arizona in 2009. A relative risk for each medical risk factor and birth outcome parameter was tabulated using chi-square analysis, and the

statistical significance was determined utilizing a p-value of 0.05 as the cutoff for statistical significance.
Results: Overall the study revealed a significantly lower rates of anemia in active Health Start participants compared to inactive Health Start enrollees (1.4% vs. 7.2%, p-value = 0.001). The low relative risk of pre-term delivery for Health Start participants compared to matched controls approached statistical significance (5.8% vs. 10.1%, p-value = 0.057), but the power of the test was limited due to small sample size. Other medical risk factors and birth outcomes did not reveal a statistically significant difference between active Health Start participants and matched controls or active Health Start Participants and inactive Health Start enrollees.
Conclusions: Active enrollment in the Health Start program is associated with significantly lower rates of anemia and notably lower rates of pre-term delivery. A follow-up study with a larger sample size is indicated to increase the power of the study.

Erhöhung der Antriebsleistungen beim Startsprung im SportschwimmenGraumnitz, Jens 29 August 2011 (has links) (PDF)
Die vorliegende Arbeit soll den Nachweis erbringen, dass mit einem spezifi-schen Trainingsprogramm, welches aus einer Kombination von Techniktrai-ningsformen besteht, Teilkörperbewegungen beim Absprung vom Block so op-timiert werden, dass quantifizierbare Verbesserungen im Startabschnitt erzielt werden können. Ausgangspunkt ist die auf Wettkampfanalysen und Leistungsdiagnosemaßnahmen basierende Annahme, dass bei der Mehrheit der deutschen Nationalmannschaftsschwimmer erhebliche Reserven in der Ausführung der Absprungbewegung vom Block bestehen. Die Folge sind Nachteile der deutschen Sportler im Startabschnitt gegenüber der internationalen Konkurrenz. Ein spezielles Techniktrainingsprogramm wird als Trainingsintervention in einer Nachwuchstrainingsgruppe erprobt. Die Intervention erstreckt sich über zehn Wochen. Während der ersten sechs Wochen wird in wöchentlich vier Teiltrainingseinheiten ein Programm zur Sensibilisierung der Teilköperbewegungen absolviert. In weiteren vier Wochen erfolgt wöchentlich einmal ein Messplatztraining. Neun Wochen nach Abschluss des ersten Interventionszeitraumes wird die Intervention wiederholt. Im Vergleich mit einer Kontrollgruppe können über das gesamte Trainingsjahr 2007/2008 für die Interventionsgruppe größere Entwicklungsraten bei den Startleistungsmerkmalen nachgewiesen werden. Die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse unterstreichen die Notwendigkeit eines sorgfältig geplanten und kontinuierlich durchgeführten Techniktrainings zur Verbesserung der azyklischen Absprungbewegung vom Block ohne, dass die Entwicklung an-derer Leistungsvoraussetzungen beschränkt wird.

Srovnání polonízkého a polovysokého startu / The comparison of standing and crouch startTalácko, Zdeněk January 2021 (has links)
Title: The comparison of standing and crouch start Objectives: Analysis of time differences in base running from the position of standing and crouch start. Another goal was to compare these starts in group of male sprinters and then to compare these starts with female softball players. Methods: Mainly document analysis was used in my diploma thesis. The author used both Czech and foreign sources. The foreign sources were mainly scientific researches, professional studies and articles from scientific journals. The issue was closely linked to running bases in softball, athletic starts and strenght training focused on thy dynamic component. Standing and crouch starts were then examined in detail. Results: It was found that the standing start compared to the crouch start enhances the results of female softball players by 0,06 s at the distance of 20 meters. The difference in the group of male athletes was only 0,01 s. Major differences were observed in female softball players already within the first 5 meters where the first time difference appeared. This difference was gradually rising until the end of the 20 m distance. Keywords: base running, running in softball, athletic start, three-point stance start, standing start, crouch start
