To investigate FF as an indicator, we compared alternative methods to capture self-reported FF consumption and examined associated socio-demographic factors. We conducted a secondary analysis of the 2014-2015 Foodbook study, a cross-sectional survey on foods consumed by Canadians during the previous week. An embedded randomized design compared alternative FF intake questions of varying details. A total of 6062 participants aged 18+ were included, representing 24.7 million Canadian adults. Approximately 48% consumed FF in the past week, and of FF consumers, average frequency was twice. Asking broadly about FF intake without examples resulted in significantly lower reported FF intake compared with the two more detailed questions; the latter two were not significantly different. Burgers, pizza, and submarines/sandwiches were most commonly consumed. Men, younger age, higher BMI, women in central Canada (versus territorial regions), and men with income $30 000-$80 000 (versus >$80 000) were associated with higher FF consumption. Consumption of FF is common among Canadians; some associated factors are gender-specific.

A total of 186 participants (114 females) underwent body composition assessments necessary for a 4C model and SW-BIA and MFBIA.

Precision was adequate though slightly lower for the smartwatch compared with other methods. No device demonstrated equivalence with the 4C model. Specifically, the SW-BIA overestimated and MFBIA underestimated body fat. MFBIA, but not SW-BIA, demonstrated equivalence for TBW. Overall error was higher for males using the smartwatch compared with females. While these findings do not invalidate the use of smartwatch-based estimates, clinicians should consider that there may be large errors relative to clinical measures.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are emerging biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction and offer the potential for evaluating vascular health non-invasively during pregnancy. The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in circulating EV levels after an acute bout of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise in healthy pregnant and non-pregnant women. We studied plasma samples from pregnant (<i>N</i> = 13, 13-28 weeks) and non-pregnant (<i>N</i> = 17) women. A pre-exercise blood sample was obtained followed by a 30 min bout of moderate-intensity treadmill-based exercise. Immediately following the exercise, a post-exercise blood draw was collected. Large EVs were isolated from plasma by differential centrifugation and characterized by Western blot and electron microscopy. We quantified circulating EVs by nanoscale flow cytometry. Endothelial EVs were identified as VE-Cadherin+, platelet EVs as CD41+, and leukocyte EVs as CD45+ events. Acute exercise was associated with a significant reduction in levels of circulating endothelial EVs in the non-pregnant group (<i>p</i> = 0.0232) but not in the pregnant group (<i>p</i> = 0.2734). A greater proportion of non-pregnant women (13/17, 76.47%) exhibited a reduction in endothelial EVs compared with their pregnant counterparts (4/13, 30.76%, <i>p</i> < 0.05).

Findings indicated that moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity was favourably associated with QOL. Time re-allocation studies that showed moving time into physical activity from sedentary behaviour were associated with favourable QOL changes.

We aimed to examine day-to-day reliability of rFE across various contraction types in the dorsiflexors in males and females. Twenty-five recreationally active young adults completed two visits, 1 week apart. Following determination of maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) strength, rFE was assessed during maximal voluntary effort, 20% MVC electrically stimulated, and 20% MVC torque-matching conditions. Each rFE condition was completed at two joint excursions: 0°-20° plantar flexion (PF) and 0°-40° PF. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) assessed relative reliability and typical error of measurement (TEM), and the correlation variability of TEM (CV_TEM) assessed absolute reliability. Electrically stimulated contractions demonstrated the highest reliability at 40° PF (ICC: 0.9; CV_TEM: 22.8%) and 20° PF (ICC: 0.8; CV_TEM: 34.3%), followed by maximal voluntary contractions at 40° PF (ICC: 0.7; CV_TEM: 55.1%) and 20° PF (ICC: 0.1; CV_TEM: 81.1%).
