Compounds for Improved Psychological and Resilience Measures Associated with Physical Activity (UCLA Case No. 2022-272)

UCLA researchers from the Department of Medicine have identified microbiome and metabolic markers associated with high physical activity in an obese population, leading to possible therapies that may provide the positive effects of physical activity. BACKGROUND: It is known that physical activity has a multitude of beneficial effects on health. On...

Method for Determining the Time Constant for Oxygen Uptake Kinetics (UCLA Case No. 2022-253)

Summary: UCLA researchers in the Department of Medicine have developed a novel geometric model for the determination of the time constant in variable oxygen uptake kinetic systems. Background: The kinetic response of oxygen uptake adjustment to moderate-intensity exercise is a main factor of the aerobic function. Aerobic function is an indicator...

Neuromodulation to Enhance Physical Activity Behavior

Only 5% of adults over 20 years of age engage in daily physical activity for at least 30 minutes, despite overwhelming evidence showing its many physical and mental health benefits. It is clear that incorporating enough physical activity or exercise in daily life is a challenge for most people. Current efforts use social, economic, psychological and/or...

Java Applet for Modeling Human Metabolism and Energy Expenditure for Adaptive Dieting and Exercise Regimens

Known methods for predicting weight loss fail to account for slowing of metabolism as weight is lost and therefore overestimate the degree of weight loss. While this limitation of the 3500 Calorie per pound rule has been known for some time, it was not clear how to dynamically account for the metabolic slowing. The invention provides a Java applet for...
